Mold has started to grow in
the bathroom. When I first
noticed it there was 3cm².
The next day there was 4.5
cm². I noticed each day it
grew by 50%.

Answers

Answer 1

The amount of mold after n days is 3 × (1.5)ⁿ⁻¹.

What is Geometric Progression?

Geometric progression is a sequence of numbers such that the ratio of two consecutive numbers is the same for whole sequence.

This ratio is common ratio.

At first, mold was 3 cm², then 4.5 cm², and it was increasing each day by 50%.

a₁ = 3

a₂ = 4.5

a₃ = 4.5 + (4.5 × 50%) = 6.75

.............

Here the common ratio, r = a₂/a₁ = a₃/a₂ = ..... = 1.5

n th term of a GP = a rⁿ⁻¹, where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Area of mold after n days = 3 × (1.5)ⁿ⁻¹

Hence the mold at any time can be calculated by the formula 3 × (1.5)ⁿ⁻¹.

Answers

The fries costs $1.49

What is addition?

Addition in math is a process of combining two or more numbers.

Given that, Keith ordered a hamburger for $2.25, a medium raspberry ice tea for $1.25, and a small sundae for  $1.25. He also ordered French fries. All of these items totalled $6.24.

Let the price of fries be x,

Therefore,

$2.25 + $1.25 + $1.25 + x = $6.24

$4.75 + x = $6.24

x = $6.24 - $4.75

x = $1.49

Hence, the fries costs $1.49

The absolute value of a number is the distance it is from 0. The bug is currently to the left of 0 and the absolute value of its location is 4. Where on the number line is it?

Answers

Answer:

- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number renders a number positive regardless of the preceeding sign. Therefore, either a number is positive or negative, the absolute value of such number will be positive.

In a number line, 0 is the midpoint and values to the left of 0 are negative, while those to the right are positive.

For the scenario, above, the bug is to the left of 0 and has an absolute value of 4 ;

The current position of the number line will be 4 (absolute value) places to the left of 0 which is - 4 (negative numbers are in the left).

three main trigonometry ratios are sin ,cos and tan.

1- Sine or sin θ = perpendicular / Hypotenuse .

2- Cosines or cos θ = base of triangle / Hypotenuse .

3- Tangent or tan θ = perpendicular of triangle / base of triangle.

Trigonometry

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.

Trigonometric values are based on the angle theta and the values of the sides of triangle in which the theta angle is made.

for example - value of sin theta is equal to the side opposite to the theta angle divided by hypotenuse of the triangle and we will get the values of the sin trigonometric ratio.

A circle is centered at the point (-7, -1) and passes through the point (8, 7).
The radius of the circle is ___ units. The point (-15, ___) lies on this circle. What are the answers?

Answers

Answer:

Find Radius using distance formula.

[tex]radius = \sqrt{(8 -- 7)^2 +(7--1)^2} \\[/tex]

            =[tex]\sqrt{15^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{225 + 64 } =\sqrt{289} = 17 units[/tex]

Since the point (-15, y) lies on the circle. The distance between (-7, -1) and

(-15, y ) will be 17 units.

So again using distance formula we will find y.

[tex]radius = \sqrt{(-7 --15)^2 + (-1-y)^2} \\\\17 = \sqrt{8^2 + (y+1)^2}\\\\squaring \ both \ sides \\\\289 = 64 + (y+1)^2\\\\289-64=(y+1)^2\\\\225 = (y+1)^2\\\\taking \ squaring \ root\\\\15 = y+1\\\\y=14[/tex]

4)Three less than six times a number is five more than twice the number.
5)Two more than the product of -3 and a number is 11.

Answers

Answers:

1.  6x + 7 = 17

2.  5x - 4 = 11

3.  6(x - 2) = 24

4.  6x - 3 = 2x + 5

5.  (-3x) + 2 = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your only translating the sentence and not actually solving, we don't need to determine a specific number.  So in that case, whenever the question says "a number," use a variable such as x.  

1.  Seven more would mean +7, so your adding 7 to x.  X is multiplied by 6, so your answer is 6x + 7 = 17.  

2.  X is being multiplied by 5, and 4 less means -4 so you get 5x - 4 = 11

3.  X-2 is being multiplied by 6, so indicate that in parenthesis.  You should then get 6(x - 2) = 24

4.  This one is a little different, since it doesn't equal a direct number.  X is being multiplied by 6, and 3 is getting subtracted from it so the first part is 6x - 3 and it equals X multiplied by 2 plus 5.  Put it all together and you get 6x - 3 = 2x + 5

5.  The word product means multiplication so you know that -3 is being multiplied with X.  Again, indicate this in parenthesis.  You should get (-3x) + 2 = 11

I hope this helps you!  Have a good day/night!  :)

Find the volume of the prism.

The volume is
cubic centimeters.

Answers

Answer:

Volume of prism = 6.3 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dimensions of parallels line = 2.3 and 1.2 cm

Height of prism = 1.8 cm

Width of prism = 2 cm

Find:

Volume of prism

Computation:

Volume of prism = Area of base x Width

Volume of prism = [(1/2)(sum of parallels line)(Height)]Width

Volume of prism = [(1/2)(2.3 + 1.2)(1.8)]2

Volume of prism = [(1/2)(3.5)(1.8)]2

Volume of prism = [(3.5)(1.8)]

Volume of prism = 6.3 cm³

Use the distributive property to simplify each expression.

-2(x - 2) + 5x

please help

Answers

Answer:

3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distributive property simply means that when there is a number in front of a pair of parentheses, every value inside the parentheses is multiplied by the co-efficient to expand the parentheses.

Here, the coefficient is -2, therefore we multiply both terms inside the parentheses (x and -2) by -2 to expand them:

-2(x - 2) + 5x

= (-2)(x) + (-2)(-2) + 5x

Now we simply evaluate and combine like terms to simplify:

= -2x +4 +5x

= 3x + 4

1.There were 32 brown ducklings at a pond. Twice as
many white ducklings arrived., 1/2 of the brown ducklings
flew away. How many ducklings are there now, at the
pond?

Answers

Answer:

80 ducks (16+64)

Step-by-step explanation:

So if there were 32 brown ducks in the pond at first, then twice the amount of brown ducks (32).

32x2=64 white ducks

So now their are 64 white ducks at the pond. We still have to add how many brown ducks their were so…

64+32=96 ducks in total

But then as the white ducks came in half of the brown ducks flew away.

32/2=16 brown ducks left in the pond.

Lastly add the remaining brown ducks with the white ducks and that is you answer!
16+64=80 total amount of ducks

Final Answer:

80 ducks

In 2010, the population of a city was 191,000. From 2010 to 2015, the population grew by 3.9%. From 2015 to 2020, it fell by 3.3%. To the nearest 100 people, what was the population in 2020?

Answers

Answer:

The population by 2020 is 191,900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

population 2010 (population in 2010): 191000

the population grew from 2010 to 2015: by 3.9%

so, population by 2015 = [tex]191000(1 + \frac{3.9}{100})[/tex]

                                      = [tex]191000(1 + 0.039)[/tex]

                                      = [tex]191000(1.039)[/tex]

                                      = [tex]198449[/tex]

the population drop from 2015 to 2020: 3.3%

so, population by 2015 = [tex]198449(1 - \frac{3.3}{100})[/tex]

                                      = [tex]198449(1 - 0.033)[/tex]

                                      = [tex]198449(0.967)[/tex]

what must be true for (m+p) so that the value of the expression below is negative? Explain.

-2 + (m + p)

Answers

For the expression to be negative (m + p) < 2.

What is an expression?

An expression is a group of terms and mathematical symbols which can be evaluated to a given value.

How to determine what must be true for (m+p)?

Since we have the expression -2 + (m + p), we need to determine the value of (m + p) for which the value of the expression is negative.

This implies that the value of the expression is less than zero.

So, we proceed as follows.

Since the expression is -2 + (m + p), for it to be negative, it must be less than zero.

So, -2 + (m + p) < 0

⇒ -2 < -(m + p)

Dividing both sides by -1, we have that

-2/-1 < -(m + p)/-1

2 > (m + p)

(m + p) < 2

So, for the expression to be negative (m + p) < 2.
