A tree has 99,400 leaves before autumn. Once autumn begins, the number of leaves on a tree decreases at a rate of 13% per day. A

fter t days of autumn, there are fewer than 12,000 leaves on the tree.
Which inequality represents this situation, and after how many days of autumn will the number of leaves on the tree be fewer than 12,000?

A.12,000(1.087)t > 99,400; 18 days

B.99,400(1.13)t > 12,000; 15 days

C.12,000(0.913)t < 99,400; 17 days

D.99,400(0.87)t < 12,000; 16 days

The answer to this question would be: D.99,400 * (0.87)^t < 12,000; 16 days
In this question, the initial number of leaves is 99,400 and it will decrease by 13% each day. Decrease by 13% can be put become: 100%-13%=87% of the original number.

Then, the function for the number of the leaves should be:
99,400 * (0.87)^t

to find how many days after autumn that the tree leaves is less than 12,000 the calculation should be:
99,400* (0.87)^t <12,000
 (0.87)^t< 0.1207

The smallest number would be  (0.87)^16= 0.10772290133

What is the end behavior of the graph of the polynomial function y = 7x12 – 3x8 – 9x4?. . x -&gt; ___ y-&gt;__ and as x-&gt; ___
kumpel [21]
We are given with the polynomial above and is asked to evaluate the end behavior of the function.  The end behavior of a polynomial function is the behavior of the graph<span> of f ( x ) as x approaches positive infinity or negative infinity. As x approaches negative infinity, the function goes to negative infinity while when x</span> approaches positive infinity, the function goes to <span>positive</span> infinity

The cubit is an ancient unit. Its length equals six palms. (A palm varies from 2.5 to 3.5 inches depending on the individual.) W
olasank [31]

Assuminhg the ark has a shoe-box (cuboid) shape it´s volume would be:

V_{cuboid}=lenght*width*height

We have this three measurements (l=300cubits;w=50cubits;h=30cubits)) and it can be as simple as replacing them in the equation and solving but they are in all in cubits. We will convert them to ft because the problem requires the answer in ft^{3}. In order to do this we will use the given equivalences:

1cubit=6palms\\1palm=3.10in

and another one:

1ft=12in

First we will convert from cubits to palms:

l=300cubits*\frac{6palms}{1cubit}=1800palms\\w=50cubits*\frac{6palms}{1cubit}=300palms\\h=30cubits*\frac{6palms}{1cubit}=180palms\\

now from palms to in:

l=1800palms*\frac{3.10in}{1palm}=5580in\\w=300palms*\frac{3.10in}{1palm}=930in\\h=180palms*\frac{3.10in}{1palm}=558in\\

now from in to ft:

l=5580in*\frac{1ft}{12in}=465ft\\w=930in*\frac{1ft}{12in}=77.5ft\\h=558in*\frac{1ft}{12in}=46.5ft

We can calculate the Volume now like this:

V_{ark}=465ft*77.5ft*46.5ft=1675743.75ft^{3}

The volume of trhe ark would be 1675743.75ft^{3}
