R = a2/a1 = 36/120 = 0.2

a5 = a1 * r^4 = 120 * 0.2^4 = 120 * 0.0016 = 0.192

From 2003 onward, the number of daily visitors to a website increased by 200% every two years. So, for example, the number of vi

SSSSS [86.1K]

It takes 4 years for number of daily visitors to be 800% more than the number of daily visitors in 2003

Solution:

Let the number of visitors in 2003 be 100

From 2003 onward, the number of daily visitors to a website increased by 200% every two years

Therefore, Number of visitors in 2005 is given as:

Visitors in 2005 = 100 + 200 % of 100

$Visitors\ in\ 2005 = 100 + \frac{200}{100} \times 100\\$

Visitors in 2005 is 300

Similarly, in 2007, the number of visitors is given as:

Visitors in 2007 = 300 + 200 % of 300

Visitors in 2007 = 300 + 600

Visitors in 2007 = 900

Now find the percentgae increase from 2003 to 2007

$\text { Percentage increase }=\frac{\text {visitors in } 2007-\text {visitors in } 2003}{\text {visitors in } 2003} \times 100$

$\text{percentgae increase} = \frac{900 - 100}{100} \times 100\\\\\text{percentgae increase} = 800$

Thus it is a 800 % increase

Number of years = 2007 - 2003 = 4 years

Thus it takes 4 years for number of daily visitors to be 800% more than the number of daily visitors in 2003

The base of a cube is parallel to the horizon. If the cube is cut by a plane to form a cross section, under what circumstance wo

Keith_Richards [23]

This question has this set of answer choices:

a) when the plane cuts three faces of the cube, separating one corner from the others

b) when the plane passes through a pair of vertices that do not share a common face

c) when the plane is perpendicular to the base and intersects two adjacent vertical faces

d) when the plane makes an acute angle to the base and intersects three vertical faces

e) not enough information to answer the question

The right answer is the first choice: a) when the plane cuts three faces of the cube, separating one corner from the others

You can see a picture of this case in the figure attached: as you can see the cross section (in pink) is a triangle.
