John’s calculations are not correct. He compared the exact value to the absolute error. The absolute error should be in the numerator and the exact value in the denominator.
Answer: E. The population decreased by 11% each year.
Step-by-step explanation: In A, the pollution increases at a constant rate, but in a linear way, in other words in each day, the pollution increases 10 grams; The same goes for C: ice "grows" a few milimeters each day; In D, as volume is calculated by the multiplication of π and its radius, the increase in the volume is still linear. In B, the proportionality is related to the power of the turbine not the growth or decay of it. In E, a population grows or decreases in a form of A=A₀(1±r)^t. In this case: A = A₀ (1-0.11)^t.
In conclusion, the function that better describes an exponential growth or decay is the decrease of a population.
Cross multiply.
5.4x=9*25.8
5.4x=232.2 Divide both sides by 5.4
x=43
1:4
when sugar=34
times 34 both sides
34*4=136
1:4=34:136
should use 136 cups of water
that is alot of water
that's a big feeder (8.5 gallons. the water alone weighs about 74.8lb)
should use 136 cups (wow)
A zero of a function is the value of x for which f(x) = 0
f(x) = 16x^2 + 32x - 9 = 0
16x^2 - 4x + 36x - 9 = 0
(16x^2 - 4x) + (36x - 9) = 0
4x(4x - 1) + 9(4x - 1) = 0
(4x + 9)(4x - 1) = 0
4x + 9 = 0 and 4x - 1 = 0
4x = -9 and 4x = 1
x = -9/4 and x = 1/4
