Two students start a club the first week of school. Each member invites three new members the second week of school. Each of these new members then invites three additional members the following week. If the pattern of each new member inviting three new members each week continues, how many members will be in the club after five weeks

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I'll just make a manual computation on how 1 member recruits his members until week 5. Then multiply the sum by 2.
                                old      new
1:   1
2:   1 x 3 = 3 ⇒        1         3       *only new members recruit 3 more
3:   3 x 3 = 9 ⇒        4         9 
4:   9 x 3 = 27⇒     13       27
5: 27 x 3 = 81 ⇒    40       81

40 + 81 = 121. Total number of members under 1 founding member.

121 x 2 founding members = 242 total number of members within 5 weeks.

-1≤ 3x-10≤ 2 please help me

Answers

Answer:

3≤ x≤ 4    

Step-by-step explanation:

-1≤ 3x-10≤ 2

Add 10 to each side

-1+10≤ 3x-10+10≤ 2+10

9≤ 3x≤ 12  

Divide each side by 3

9/3≤ 3x/3≤ 12/3

3≤ x≤ 4    

Answer:

3 ≤ x ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add 10 to all parts/sections.

  • -1 + 10 \leq  3x - 10 + 10 \leq 2+10
  • 9\leq 3x\leq 12

Step 2: Divide all parts/sections by 3.

  • (9)/(3) \leq (3x)/(3) \leq (12)/(3)
  • 3 \leq x \leq  4

Therefore, the answer is 3 ≤ x ≤ 4.

In sunlight, a vertical stick 7 ft tall casts a shadow 3 ft long. At the same time a nearby tree casts a shadow 11 ft long. How tall is the tree? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

25.7 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the actual length of tree.

We have been given that in sunlight, a vertical stick 7 ft tall casts a shadow 3 ft long. We are asked to find the actual length of tree casting a 11 ft long shadow.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

(x)/(11)=(7)/(3)

Upon multiplying both sides of our equation by 11, we will get:

(x)/(11)*11=(7)/(3)*11

x=(77)/(3)

x=25.6666666\approx 25.7

Therefore, the tree is 25.7 feet tall.

the ball reach after bouncing four time? how many bounces does it take for the ball to reach a height of less than one inch?

Answers


After the 'n'th bounce, the ball returns to a maximum height of

               (100) times (0.75)^n .

-- After 4 bounces, the maximum height is (100) (0.75)^4 = 31.64 inches.

-- To look for the maximum height of 1 inch,     (100) (0.75)^x = 1

Let's take the log of each side:    log(100) + x log(0.75) = 0

Subtract  log(100)  from each side:      x log(0.75) = -log(100)

Divide each side by  log(0.75) :            x  =  -log(100) / log(0.75).

log(100) = 2 .  So ...    x = -2 / log(0.75)  =  -2 / -0.124939  =  16.00785    

So the ball returns to a slim hair more than 1 inch high on the 16th bounce,
and returns to definitely less than 1 inch high on the 17th bounce.



3. Rewrite the expression as simply as you can:
3x + 11y - 2x - 4y

Answers

Answer:

x+7y

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, lets split the question into both x and y.

3x - 2x for the x

11y - 4y for the y

You can solve both of them to get x + 7y

3x - 2x = x

11y - 4y = 7y

Then, add them back up and get x + 7y

Answer:

x+7y

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 11y -2x - 4y

(3x) + (11y) + (-2x) + (-4y)

(3x) + (-2x) = x

(11y) + (-4y) = 7y

3x + 11y -2x - 4y = x + 7y
