The function f(x)=60(1.5)xf(x)=60(1.5)x models an animal population after x years.How does the average rate of change between Years 3 and 6 compare to the average rate of change between Years 0 and 3?

The average rate of change is 1.5 times as fast.

The average rate of change is 3 times as fast.

The average rate of change is 3.375 times as fast.

The average rate of change is 2.25 times as fast.

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The average rate of change is 3.375 times as fast.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is f(x)=60(1.5)^x

The average rate of change of a function f(x) is given by

(f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)

Thus,  average rate of change between Years 3 and 6 is given by

(f(6)-f(3))/(6-3)\n\n=(\left(60\left(1.5\right)^6-60\left(1.5\right)^3\right))/(3)\n\n=160.3125

Now, average rate of change between Years 0 and 3

(f(3)-f(0))/(3-0)\n\n(\left(60\left(1.5\right)^3-60\left(1.5\right)^0\right))/(3)\n\n=47.5

The ratio of these average rate of change is given by

=(160.3125)/(47.5)\n\n=3.375

Therefore, the average rate of change is 3.375 times as fast.

A man spent exactly $2.50 on 3¢, 6¢, and 10¢ stamps. If he bought ten 3¢ stamps andtwice as many 6¢ stamps as 10¢ stamps, how many 10¢ stamps did he buy?

Answers

You have 2.50.
3 times 10 is 30, so now you have
2.20.
he bought twice as many six cent stamps as ten cent stamps.
multiples of six that are applicable are 30, 60, 90, 120.
six goes into 30 five times. Five can't be divided in half.
six goes into 60 ten times. ten divided in half is five. fifty plus sixty, is only 110.
six goes into ninety 15 times. fifteen can not be divided in half.
six goes into 120 twenty times. 20 divided in half is ten. ten times ten is 100.
100 + 120 = 220. 
He bought 10 10cent stamps 
1stamp i believe. Due to .03•10=.30 and 2.50-.30=2.20 so i divided By .6 and got 3.67 so just find where .10 fits. I know im no help

Solve for p, w = Q+P
-------
Q-QP

Answers

alright, here it is
w=(q+p)/(q-pq)
factor out the q in the bottom part

w=(q+p)/[(q)(1-p)]
multiply both sides by q
wq=(q+p)/(1-p)
add 1 to both sides, but add (1-p)/(1-p) to the right side since that equals 1
wq+1=(q+1+p-p)/(1-p)=(q+1)/(1-p)
multiply both sdies by (1-p)
(wq+1)(1-p)=q+1
divide both sdies by (wq+1)
1-p=(q+1)/(wq+1)
subtract 1 from both sdies
-p=[(q+1)/(wq+1)]-1
multiply by -1
p=-[(q+1)/(wq+1)]+1 or
p= -((q+1))/((wq+1))+1
Remove the extra parentheses.
w=q+p/q−qp

Since p is on the right-hand side of the equation switch the sides so it is on the left-hand side of the equation.
q+p/q−qp=w

Factor q out of q−qp. 
q+p/q⋅(1−1p)=w 

Rewrite −1p as −p. 
q+p/q⋅(1−p)=w 

Multiply q by 1−p to get q(1−p).
q+p/q(1−p)=w

Multiply each term in the equation by (1−p).
q+p/q(1−p)⋅(1−p)=w⋅(1−p) 

1+p/q=w−wp

Since −wp contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left-hand side of the equation by adding wp to both sides.
1+p/q+wp=w

Find the LCD of the terms in the equation.
It is q

Multiply each term in the equation by q in order to remove all the denominators from the equation.
p+wpq=−q+wq

Solve the equation.
p=q(w−1)/qw+1


Answer:
p=q(w−1)/qw+1

A student has earned the following scores on four 100-point tests this marking period: 63, 72, 88, and 91. What score must the student earn on the fifth and final 100-point test of the marking period to earn an averagetest grade of 80 for the five tests?

Answers

In order to have average 80 score from 5 tests, student needs to have 400 points (80%*500=0.8*500=400)
So far he has 63+72+88+91= 314
400-314=86

He needs to get 86 points from the last test.
Since he is obviously getting better at tests, i think he'll manage :)
