The table shows the estimated number of bees, y, in a hive x days after a pesticide is released near the hive.

A 2-column table with 6 rows. The first column is labeled number of days with entries 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. The second column is labeled estimated number of bees with entries 10,000; 7,500; 5,600; 4,200; 3,200; 2,400.
Which function best models the data?

y = 9,958(0.972)x
y = 0.972(9,958)x
y = 9,219x– 150
y = –150x + 9,219

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 9,958(0.972)x

Answer 2

Function which best models the given data is -150x + 9219.

What is the solution of an equation?

A solution is an assignment of values to the unknown variables that makes the equality in the equation true.

According to the given question

y represents the number of bees.

and, x represents the number of days.

Since, we have to find the function to represent the given data.

As, we know the given data are the solution of any function, so they must satisfy the function. For this we will take any value of x and y and check whether it satisfy the given function or not.

From the given data,

Let check for the point (0, 1000).

Substitute (0, 1000) in the given function one by one.

For, y = 9,958(0.972)x

At, x = 0

We get y = 0

⇒ ( 0, 1000) is not the solution of the function 9958(0.72)x

For, y = 0.972(9,958)x

At, x = 0

we get y = 0

⇒ (0, 1000) is not the solution for the function 0.972(9958)x

For, y = 9219x - 150

At x = 0

we get y = -150

⇒ (0, 10000) is not the solution of function, 9219x -150

For, y = -150x + 9219

At x = 0

y = 9219 which is nearly equals to 10000 because y is the estimated number of bees.

⇒ (0, 10000) is the solution of the given function y = -150x + 9219 .

Hence, the function which best models the given data is -150x + 9219.

The local theater sold 260 tickets to their most recent performance. Admission was $9 for adults and $5 for children. If they made $2,140, how many adult tickets did they sell?

Answers

Answer:

210 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of adult tickets sold

let y be the number of children tickets sold

x+y=260 equation 1

9x+5y=2140 equation 2

multiply equation 1 by 5

multiply equation 2 by 1

5x+5y=1300

9x+5y=2140

subtract equation 1 from 2

4x=840

x=840/4 =210  tickets

substitute for x in equation 1

210+y=260

y=260-210=50

Hola ayudenme porfa se trata de progresiones aritmeticas 1Un niño compra figuras para su album; el primer dia 1 figura ; segundo dia,3 figuras;el tercer dia, 5 figuras y asi sucesivamente. Si en total compro 225 figuras ¿Cuantos dias compro figuras?

Answers

Answer: 16 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will answer this in English.

An aritmetic series works in the next way.

if the first therm is A.

Then the second therm is A + r

the third therm is A + r + r

and so on.

Where A is the initial value and r is a constant.

Here the first term is A = 1

The second term is 3, we can find the value of r as:

3 - 1 = r = 2

Then our series is:

Kₙ₊₁ = Kₙ + 2

where K₁ = 1

We know that in total he bought 225 figures, then we have the sumation:

∑Kₙ

and we want to find the value of n.

the sum of the first n terms is:

Sn = (n/2)*(K₁ + Kₙ)

where Kₙ = 1 + n*2 and K₁ = 1

so we must solve:

225 = (n/2)*(1 + 1 + n*2) = n + n^2

So we must solve the quadratic equation:

n^2 + n - 225 = 0

the solutions are:

[tex]n = \frac{-1 + -\sqrt{1^2 + 4*225} }{2} = \frac{-1 +-30}{2}[/tex]

So we have two solutions:

n = 29/3 = 14-.5

n = -31/2 = -15.5

We must select the positive solution, because n can be only positive, and we should round it to the next whole number, that is 16.

So he bought figures for 16 days.

Please answer me<br />bis two fifths of c.<br />4a = 30<br />Work out the ratio a:b:c<br />Give your answer in its simplest form where a, b and c are integers.​

Answers

b is two fifths of c, so we make this a ratio with c = 1.

The ratio of b:c is 2/5 : 1

We also have 4a = 3c, rewrite this ratio so c is 1 by dividing both sides by 4,

so we get the ratio of a to c as 3/4 : 1

Now we get the a:b:c ratio of 3/4 : 2/5 : 1 now we can change the fractions to whole numbers, first by multiplying the 3 numbers by 4 to get get rid of the denominator of 4 in a:

3 : 8/5 : 4

Now multiply the 3 numbers by 5 to remove the denominator  of 5 in b:

15 : 8 : 20

Now we can check using the equations:

b is 2/5 of c:  20 x 2/5 = 40/5 = 8 This is true.

4a = 3c: 4(15) = 3(20) = 60 = 60, this is also true.

The ratios is 15 : 8: 20

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph x+5y>5 y<2x+4

Answers

Answer:

The lines represent the inequalities .

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows.

The formula for slope of line with points   and   can be expressed as,

Given:

The inequalities are as follows.

a. x – 5y < –5 and y < –2x – 4

b. x + 5y > 5 and y < 2x + 4

c. x – 5y < –5 and y < –2x + 4

d. x + 5y > 5 and y < 2x – 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue line intersects y-axis at , therefore the y-intercept is 4.

The blue line intersect the points that are  and .

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

The slope of the line is m = 2.

Now check whether the inequality included origin or not.

Substitute  in equation y=x+1.

0 is not greater than 1 which means that the inequality doesn’t include origin.

Therefore, the blue line is y < 2x + 4.

The orange line intersects y-axis at , therefore the y-intercept is 1.

The orange line intersect the points that are  and  .

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

The slope of the line is m =  .

Now check whether the inequality included origin or not.

Substitute  in equation y > .

0 is not greater than 1 which means that the inequality doesn’t include origin.

Therefore, the orange line is y > .

Solve the equation y > .

The equation of orange line is 5y + x > 5.

Option (a) is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (b) is correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (c) is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (d) is is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Answers

Answer:

Radius= 5.0ft ( given)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Volume of cone= 50π ft^3

Height of cone= 6ft

Required: Radius

Volume of cone= 1/3 * π * r^2 *h

(or)

r^2= Volume *3/h π ( Just disintegrating the formula and taking radius^2 to the left hand side(L.H.S) )

= (50 π *3)/(6)π

= 50/2 (because, 3 π /6 π = 1/2)

r^2 = 25

Therefore, the radius of the cone is 5.0 ft(to the nearest tenth) :)

I am donating packages for Christmas drive. After the first week, I spent 126 to donate three children packages and 8 adult packages. After two weeks I spent 108 to donate six children packages and 4 adult packages. What is the price of each type of package

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price for children and adults package be represented with x and y respectively.

For the first week the sum of the package will be as follows:

3x+8y = 126

For the two weeks after:

6x+4y= 108

So, we will be having two equations

3x+8y = 126..... (1)

6x+4y= 108.......(2)

These are simultaneous equations

From equation 1

3x+8y = 126

3x = 126-8y

X = 126-8y/3 ............. (3)

Put equation 3 into 2

6 ( 126-8y)/3 +4y = 108

756-48y/3 +4y = 108

756-48y+12y/3 = 108

Cross multiplying

756-48y+12y= 108×3

756-48y+ 12y = 324

Collecting like terms

756-324 = 48y-12y

432= 36y

Divide both sides by 36

432/36 = 36y/36

y= 12

Substituting y into equation 1

3x+8= 126

3x+96=126

3x= 126-96

3x= 30

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 30/3

x = 10

Hence for each of the packages for children and adults. It will be 10 and 12 respectively.
