Answer: 3.5 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
17+12.5=29.5
33-29.5=3.5
Answer: 6 large frames and 12 small frames
Step-by-step explanation:
We define the following:
x = number of large frames
y = number of small frames
Make the following equations:
x + y = 18
19x + 9y = 222
Use system of equations to solve. We find the value of x first.
y = 18 - x
⇒ 19x + 9(18 - x) = 222
⇒ 19x + 162 - 9x = 222
⇒ 10x + 162 = 222
⇒ 10x = 60
⇒ x = 6
Find value of y:
6 + y = 18
y = 12
∴ 6 large frames and 12 small frames were purchased.
Answer: y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
(i’m so sorry i don’t know how to explain it, i guesses but got it right.)
Given:
The function is
where, function r gives the instantaneous growth rate of a fruit fly population x days after the start of an experiment.
To find:
Number of complex and real zeros.
Time intervals for which the population increased and population deceased.
Solution:
We have,
Here, degree of function x is 3. It means, the given function has 3 zeros.
From the given graph it is clear that, the graph of function r(x) intersect x-axis at once.
So, the given function r(x) has only one real root and other two real roots are complex.
Therefore, function r has 2 complex zeros and one real zero.
Before x=6, the graph of r(x) is below the x-axis and after that the graph of r(x) is above the x-axis.
Negative values of r(x) represents the decrease in population and positive value of r(x) represents the increase in population.
Therefore, based on instantaneous growth rate, the population decreased between 0 and 6 hours and the population increased after 6 hours.
