An unusually wet spring has caused the size of a mosquito population in some city to increase by 6% each
day. If an estimated 230,000 mosquitoes are in the city on May 12, find how many mosquitoes will inhabit the
city on May 26. Use y = 230,000(1.06)* where x is number of days since May 12.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  about 520,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Following directions, we evaluate the equation by putting the value where the variable is and doing the arithmetic.

__

The value of x will be the number of days between May 26 and May 12. That value is ...

  x = 26 -12 = 14

Then the number of mosquitos is estimated to be ...

  y = 230,000(1.06^14) ≈  520,008

About 520,000 mosquitos will inhabit the city on May 26.

_____

Additional comment

Typically, an "estimate" is one or two significant figures. So, 520,000 is a reasonable estimate. 520,008 has more precsision than can be justified.

Use the method of elimination to solve the pair of simultaneous equation 2x+5y=4,2x-2y=18​

Answers

[tex]2x+5y= 4~~~...(i)\\\\2x-2y = 18~~~...(ii)\\\\(ii) -(i):\\\\~~~~~2x-2y -2x -5y= 18 -4\\\\\implies -7y = 14\\\\\implies y = -\dfrac{14}7\\\\\implies y= -2\\\\\text{Substitute}~ y=-2~ \text{ in eq (i):}\\\\~~~~~~2x+5(-2) = 4\\\\\implies 2x-10 = 4\\\\\implies 2x = 10+4\\\\\implies 2x =14\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{14}2\\\\\implies x =7\\\\\text{Hence}~ (x,y) =(7,-2).[/tex]

Answer:

              y = -2

              x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

     Solving simultaneous equation

         2x + 5y = 4 ---------------(I)

         2x - 2y  = 18 -----------(II)

Now, multiply equation (II) by (-1) and then add the equations. So that, 'x' will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'y'

(I)              2x + 5y = 4

(II)*(-1)      -2x  + 2y = - 18 {Now add}

                         7y = -14

                           y = -14/7       {on dividing both sides by 7}

       [tex]\sf \boxed{y= -2}[/tex]

Now plugin y = -2 in equation (I)

        2x + 5*(-2) = 4

           2x - 10   = 4

                    2x = 4 + 10     {on adding 10 to both sides}

                    2x = 14

                       x = 14/2      {Divide both sides by 2}

         [tex]\sf \boxed{x = 7}[/tex]

1. Given: LMN ~ QPR, find RQ.

Answers

Answer:

C. 27

Step-by-step explanation:

If those two triangles are similar then look at how much one side is being increased to the other triangle. ML is similar to PQ and it increases by 1.5 to get there.

So find the side similar to RQ which is LN

1.5(x+7)=2x+5

1.5x+10.5=2x+5

5.5=0.5x

x=11

Then plug in 11 for x to find RQ which will be 27

Hey ! Buddy .

As the question is in Spanish . So we have provided your answer in English as well as in Spanish language .

( ¡Oye! Amigo, la pregunta es en español. Así que hemos proporcionado su respuesta tanto en inglés como en español. )

Answer:

Value of x is 36 (El valor de x es 36)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given with an equation that is -6x + 71 = -4x - 1 . And have to find the value of x .

( En esta pregunta hemos dado con una ecuación que es -6x + 71 = -4x - 1 . y hay que encontrar el valor de x )

Solution : -

( Soluciones : - )

[tex] \quad : \implies - 6x + 71 = - 4 - 1[/tex]

Step 1 : Subtracting 71 on both sides :

( Paso 1 : Restando 71 en ambos lados: )

[tex]\quad : \implies - 6x + \cancel{71} - \cancel{71} = - 4x - 1 - 71[/tex]

On calculating further, We get :

( Al calcular más, obtenemos : )

[tex]\quad : \implies - 6x = - 4x - 72[/tex]

Step 2 : Adding 4x on both sides :

( Paso 2 : Sumando 4x en ambos lados: )

[tex]\quad : \implies - 6x + 4x = - \cancel{4x} + \cancel{4x } - 72[/tex]

On calculating further, We get :

( Al calcular más, obtenemos : )

[tex]\quad : \implies \cancel{-} 2x = \cancel{-}72[/tex]

Step 3 : Dividing by 2 on both sides :

( Paso 3 : Dividiendo por 2 en ambos lados: )

[tex]\quad : \implies \frac{ \cancel{2}x}{ \cancel{2} } = \cancel{\frac{72}{2} }[/tex]

On calculating further , We get :

( Al calcular más, obtenemos : )

[tex]\quad : \implies \: \green{ \boxed{ \frak{x = 36}}}[/tex]

Therefore , value of x is 36 . ( Por lo tanto , el valor de x es 36 . )

Verifying : -

( Comprobación :- )

We are verifying our answer by substituting value of x in given equation. So ,

( Estamos verificando nuestra respuesta al sustituir el valor de x en la ecuacióndada. Asi que, )

-6x + 71 = -4x - 1

-6 ( 36 ) + 71 = -4 ( 36 ) - 1

-216 + 71 = -144 - 1

-145 = -145

L.H.S = R.H.S (Lado izquierdo = Lado derecho )

Hence, Verified. ( Por lo tanto, Verificado. )

Therefore, our solution is correct.

( Por lo tanto, nuestra solución es correcta. )

(- [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] , 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

to find where the line crosses the x- axis, let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

5x - 2(0) + 1 = 0

5x - 0 + 1 = 0

5x + 1 = 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

5x = - 1 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

the line crosses the x- axis at (- [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex], 0 ) or ( - 0.2, 0 )

Answer:

(-1/5, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

Where the line crosses the axis the value of y = 0.

5x - 2y + 1 = 0

Let y = 0, then:

5x - 2(0) + 1 = 0

5x + 1 = 0

5x = -1

x = -1/5.

So the point is (-1/5, 0).

Consider two events, P and Q. The probability of event P occurring is 16. The probability of event Q occurring is 23. Which statement is true?

Answers

The event "P and Q" is a compound event in the probability, and the true statement about the probability is P(P and Q) = 1/9

How to determine the true statement?

The probabilities are given as:

P(P) = 1/6

P(Q) = 2/3

The probability of the event P and Q is calculated using:

P(P and Q) = P(P) * P(Q)

This gives

P(P and Q) = 1/6 * 2/3

Evaluate the product

P(P and Q) = 1/9

Hence, the true statement about the probability is P(P and Q) = 1/9
