Sarah is conducting a science experiment where she initially has a population of 4 fruit flies. Every week the population triples. She writes the function f(x)=4(3)x to predict the population growth. Which rule can also model the function?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and explanation:

Given that initial population of fruit flies = 4

And population of fruit flies triple every week

If population of fruit flies triple every week then let x represent number if weeks

Therefore function can be modelled thus :

f(x)= 4 + 3x

To demonstrate that the function is correct, we use an example. Now assume population grows for two weeks, using the function:

f(2)= 4+3×2

f(2)= 10

Therefore population grows to 10 fruit flies in 2 weeks based on our function

The next step will be:to find the b² for the expression on the left.How to find b²:

Take the expression

[tex]\displaystyle x^2 + \frac{bx}{a}[/tex]

We can also write it as:

In this question we have to proof ABCD has congruent diagonal. By SAS property and reflexive property it can be proved as follows:

Given:

ABCD is a rectangle.

Prove:

Diagonal AC ≅ Diagonal BD

From the question,

As we can see that, ABCD is a rectangle, it is also a parallelogram.

Thus, ABCD is a parallelogram, opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.

⇒ AB ≅  DC  

⇒ BC ≅ BC (Reflexive Property of Congruence)

Hence, ∠ABC and ∠DCB are right angles by the definition of rectangle.

∠ABC ≅ ∠DCB (all right angles are congruent)

Therefore, by SAS property,  ABC ≅  DCB.

A building meets the ground at a right angle. the top of a 10-foot ladder is placed against the bottom edge of a window in the building, and the base of the ladder is placed 6 feet from where the building meets the ground.

Answers

The bottom edge of the window is 8 inches above the ground, computed using the Pythagoras Theorem.

According to the Pythagoras Theorem, in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse, that is, the side opposite to the right angle is equal to the sum of the square of the legs, that is, the two other sides.

If in a right triangle, c is the hypotenuse, and a and b are the two legs, then by the Pythagoras Theorem, we can write:

a² + b² = c².

In the question, we are informed that a building meets the ground at a right angle. The top of a 10-foot ladder is placed against the bottom edge of a window in the building, and the base of the ladder is placed 6 feet from where the building meets the ground.

We are asked to draw a diagram that represents the situation and find the height of the bottom edge of the window from the ground.

We assume the building to be DB, meeting the ground BC at a right angle. At point C, the ladder meets the ground and meets the bottom edge of the window at point A.

The diagram is attached.

Now, we get a right triangle ABC, right-angled at B.

By Pythagoras' Theorem, we know that:

AB² + BC² = AC²,

or, AB² + 6² = 10²,

or, AB² = 10² - 6² sq. inches,

or, AB² = 100 - 36 sq. inches,

or, AB = √64 inches,

or, AB = 8 inches.

Thus, the bottom edge of the window is 8 inches above the ground, computed using the Pythagoras Theorem.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on any other variable for its value whereas a dependent variable is a variable that depend on any other variable for its value.

The height (h) is represented by:

h(t) = -4.9t² + 40t + 20

The maximum height is at h'(t) = 0, hence:

h'(t) = -9,8t + 40

-9.8t + 40 = 0

Aster first walks 70m in the direction of 37degree north of east then walks 82m 20 degree south of east ,and finally walks 28m inthe direction of 30 degree west of north ,find displacement and angle from initial point ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The displacement is 90.7 meter from initial point.

According to the statement

Aster first walks 70m in the direction of 37 degree north of east

Aster walks 82m 20 degree south of east

Aster finally walks 28m in the direction of 30 degree west of north

We use

β= 37 degree +(30 degree −20 degree) = 47 degree

We can use cosine law to solve for R.

R = ((A)^2 + (B)^2 + 2ABcosβ)^1/2

R = ((70)^2 + (28)^2 + 2*70*28cos47)^1/2

R = (4900 + 784 + 3920*0.682)^1/2

R = (4900 + 784 + 2673.5)^1/2

R = (8357.5)^1/2

R = 90.7 m

Answers

Answer:

Either 9.71 (adjacent to 36°) or 7.05 (opposite 36°)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question doesn't specify which leg is under question.  Is it the adacent leg or the opposite leg?  I'll assume adjacent.

We can use the acronym

SOHCAHTOA which is a helpful mnemonic for remembering the definitions of the trigonometric functions.  For an angle other than the right angle, the following relationships are defined.

SOH:  S is sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse

CAH:  C is cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

TOA:  T is tangent = Opposite/Adjacent

For a side adjacent (A) to the 36° angle, we can use

Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Since we know the hypotenuse (12) we can find A:

Cosine(36) = A/12

A = Cosine(36)*12

A = (0.809)*12

Adjacent = 9.71

====================

If the opposite leg is calculated, we would use

Sine= Opposite/Hypotenuse

Sine(36) = Opposite/12

O = (0.5877)*12

Opposite = 7.053

Answers

The predicted value of the car in the year 2007 is 13310

Given the purchased value of new car in 1998 is  $ 32,900

The value of car was $ 19,900 in the year 2003

We need to find the value of the car in the year 2007

Let the predicted value be x

The exponentially constant rate in 2003

32900*x^5 = $19900 (∵ x^5 = 5 years difference that is 1998 to 2003 )

Now In year 2007

2007 = 32900*x^9

x = 0.9043

The predicted value of the car is 0.09043

But we want the predicted value in 2007

Therefore ,

Natural numbers together with zero (0) are referred to as whole numbers. We know that natural numbers refer to the set of counting numbers starting from 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on. Simply put, integers are a set of numbers without fractions, decimals, or even negative integers. It is a collection of positive integers and zero. Or we can say that integers are the set of non-negative integers.

Integers are the set of natural numbers togethe with the number 0. In mathematics, the set of integers is given as {0, 1, 2, 3, ...}, denoted by the symbol W.

W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, …}

All natural numbers are integers.

All integers are real numbers.

It is given that If n a whole number, and 0.01 is between 1/n and 1/n+2, then we need to find the value of n.

1/n+2 < 0.01 < 1/n

1/n+2 < 1/100 < 1/n
