Initially, there were only 4 weeds at a park. The weeds grew at a rate of 15% each week. The following function represents the weekly weed growth: f(x) = 4(1.15)x. Rewrite the function to show how quickly the weeds grow each day and calculate this rate as a percentage.

f(x) = 4(1.15)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 1.5% daily
f(x) = 4(1.02)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2% daily
f(x) = 4(1.157)x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2.66% daily
f(x) = 4(1.02)x; spreads at a rate of approximately 0.2% daily

Answers

Answer 1

The function to show how quickly the weeds grow each day is "f(x) = 4(1.02)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2% daily. Option B

How can we figure out the rate of increase in percentage terms each day?

f(x) = 4(1.15)x = 4(1+ 0.15)x ................... (1)

Given that there are seven days in a week, the daily growth rate of the weeds may be estimated using equation (1) by dividing 0.15 (which stands for the 15% weekly growth rate) in the following manner:

f(x) = 4(1.15)x = 4(1+ 0.15/7)x

f(x) = 4(1 + 0.02)x

f(x) = 4(1.02)x

Since 0.02 is the same as 2%, this implies that the rate at which the weeds grow each day is 2%.

Find f(g(x)) and g(f(x)) and determine whether the pair of functions f and g are inverses of each other.
f(x)=6x+5 and g(x)= x-5/6
a. f(g(x))= (Simplify your answer.)
b. g(f(x))= (Simplify your answer.)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

a. f(x) = 6x+5 and g(x) = x--5/6

f(g(x)) = 6x + 5

Now, let x = g(x) (remember f(x) = 6x+5 so we got the x from f(x))

f(g(x)) = 6(x--5/6) + 5

Open bracket

f(g(x)) = 6(x -- 5/6) + 5

f(g(x)) = x -- 5 + 5

f(g(x) = x

b. g(f(x) = x--5/6

g(f(x) = (6x+5) -- 5/6

g(f(x)) = 6x + 5 -- 5/6

g(f(x)) = 6x/6

g(f(x)) = x...

To check for inverse

1/g(f(x) = 1/x

1/f(g(x) = 1/x

Meaning 1/f(g(x) = 1/g(f(x) inverse of each other

Time Conversions: Convert to the asked time.
. 8 hours, 20 minutes, and 36 seconds =
hours

Answers

The answer in hours is 8.91 hours.

How do you convert minutes and seconds to hours?

Converting between hours, minutes, and seconds using decimal time is relatively straightforward: time in seconds = time in minutes * 60 = time in hours * 3600. time in minutes = time in seconds / 60 = time in hours * 60. time in hours = time in minutes / 60 = time in seconds / 3600.

Given: 8 hours 20 minutes and 36 seconds

20 minutes in hours can be written as 20 / 60 = 1/3 hours or 0.9 hours

because as mentioned above 1 hour = 60 min

and 36 seconds in hours can be written as 36/ 60X60  = 1/ 100 hours or 0.01 hours .

because 1 min = 60 seconds and 1 hour = 60 min

thus 1 hour = 60 X 60 seconds

Thus the final answer is 8+0.9+0.01 hours = 8.91 hours

Martin Binford is an author. He has no income he would report on line 1a or line 1b of his schedule SE. He earned $143,380 in 2010 from his books. He had $3,563 in expense. How much self-employment tax does he owe?

Answers

Answer:

He owes $33556.08 worth of self employment tax.

Explanation:

consider firstly calculating the profit that he has made after this period which can be calculated as profit= income minus expenses and in this case we are given income earned from self employment of $143380 and the expenses incurred in generating this income is $3563 so we find he difference in these two amounts which is $143380-$3563 = $139817 therefore this profit is the taxable income that he needs to deduct tax from.

in order to calculate tax from this amount we go to the tax table so therefore a person earning between $84201 to $160725 is charged 24% tax as per tax table. so now we will say $139817 x 24% = $33556.08 is the tax he owes the IRS.

The true statement is option A, They show that the equation represents the same line.

Given,

Two equations:

Equation A : 4y - 3x = 4

Equation B : -2x - 8y = 8

These lines intersect at a single point (-2, -0.5)

We have to find the true statement which satisfies the values x as -2 and y as -0.5.

Lets check

x = -2

y = - 0.5

Equation A:

4y - 3x = 4

4 × (-0.5) - 3 × (-2)

= -2 - (-6)

=  - 2 + 6

= 4

Here, the values satisfies Equation A.

Now,

Equation B:

-2x - 8y = 8

= - 2 × (-2) - 8 × (-0.5)

= 4 + 4

= 8

Here also, the values satisfies the Equation B.

Write the missing partial products in the area model Then, write the partial to complete the equation below. Find the sum

Answers

The missing partial products are:

10 x 2 = 20

6 x 50 = 300

6 x 2 = 12

The sum of the  partial products is,

16 x 52 = 500 + 300 + 20 + 12 = 832

Here the partial products method is used to find the product of two two digit numbers 16 and 52.

For this a table of the form given in the figure is constructed in which the partial products are found.

For this first split 16 and 52 into 10 + 6 = 16 and 50 + 2 = 52.

Then take the partial products between 10 and 50, 10 and 2, 6 and 50, 6 and 2. Then take the sum of all these four values to get the final answer. This is the method of partial products.

So finding the partial products,

10 x 50 = 500

10 x 2 = 20

6 x 50 = 300

6 x 2 = 12

To find the final answer, take the sum of these products.

[tex]\textsf{2. \quad Solution: $-2 < x < 4$,\quad Interval notation: $(-2, 4)$}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

The intervals on which a quadratic function is positive are those intervals where the function is above the x-axis, i.e. where y > 0.

The zeros of the quadratic function are the points at which the parabola crosses the x-axis.  

As the given quadratic function has a negative leading coefficient, the parabola opens downwards.   Therefore, the interval on which y > 0 is between the zeros.

To find the zeros of the given quadratic function, substitute y = 0 and factor:

[tex]\begin{aligned}y&= 0\\\implies -7x^2+35x-28& = 0\\-7(x^2-5x+4)& = 0\\x^2-5x+4& = 0\\x^2-x-4x+4& = 0\\x(x-1)-4(x-1)&= 0\\(x-1)(x-4)& = 0\end{aligned}[/tex]

Apply the zero-product property:

[tex]\implies x-1=0 \implies x=1[/tex]

[tex]\implies x-4=0 \implies x=4[/tex]

Therefore, the interval on which the function is positive is:

Solution:  1 < x < 4Interval notation:  (1, 4)

Question 2

The intervals on which a quadratic function is negative are those intervals where the function is below the x-axis, i.e. where y < 0.

The zeros of the quadratic function are the points at which the parabola crosses the x-axis.  

As the given quadratic function has a positive leading coefficient, the parabola opens upwards.   Therefore, the interval on which y < 0 is between the zeros.

To find the zeros of the given quadratic function, substitute y = 0 and factor:

[tex]\begin{aligned}y&= 0\\\implies 2x^2-4x-16& = 0\\2(x^2-2x-8)& = 0\\x^2-2x-8& = 0\\x^2-4x+2-8& = 0\\x(x-4)+2(x-4)&= 0\\(x+2)(x-4)& = 0\end{aligned}[/tex]

Apply the zero-product property:

[tex]\implies x+2=0 \implies x=-2[/tex]

[tex]\implies x-4=0 \implies x=4[/tex]

Therefore, the interval on which the function is negative is:

Solution:  -2 < x < 4Interval notation:  (-2, 4)

unlike a rectangle that has both length and breadth and all sides are not equal, rather rectangle has two opposite sides equal.

if, length = breadth, this will result in the formation of a square.
