Step-by-step explanation:

The given diagram shows the height of the same cactus plant a year apart:

We are told that the cactus continues to grow at the same percentage rate. To calculate the growth rate per year (percentage increase), use the percentage increase formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\sf Percentage \; increase &= \dfrac{\sf Final\; value - Initial \;value}{\sf Initial \;value}\\\\&=\dfrac{ 2-1.6}{1.6}\\\\&=\dfrac{0.4}{1.6}\\\\&=0.25\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the growth rate of the height of the cactus is 25% per year.

As the cactus grows at a constant rate, we can use the exponential growth formula to calculate its height in Year 6.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7.5 cm}\underline{Exponential Growth Formula}\\\\$y=a(1+r)^t$\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $a$ is the initial value. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the growth factor (in decimal form).\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $t$ is the number of time periods.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

The initial value is the height in Year 1, so a = 1.6.

The growth factor is 25%, so r = 0.25.

As we wish to calculate its height in Year 6, the value of t is t = 5 (since there are 5 years between year 1 and year 6).

Substitute these values into the formula and solve for y (the height of the cactus):

[tex]\begin{aligned}y&=a(1+r)^t\\&=1.6(1+0.25)^5\\&=1.6(1.25)^5\\&=1.6(3.0517578125)\\&=4.8828125\\&=4.9\; \sf m\;(nearest\;tenth)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, if the cactus continues to grow at the same rate, its height in Year 6 will be 4.9 meters (to the nearest tenth).

Check by multiplying the height each year by 1.25:

The given diagram shows the height of the same snowman an hour apart:

We are told that the snowman continues to melt at the same percentage rate. To calculate the decay rate per hour (percentage decrease), use the percentage decrease formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\sf Percentage \; decrease&= \dfrac{\sf Initial\; value - Final\;value}{\sf Initial \;value}\\\\&=\dfrac{1.8-1.53}{1.8}\\\\&=\dfrac{0.27}{1.8}\\\\&=0.15\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the decay rate of the snowman's height is 15% per hour.

As the snowman melts at a constant rate, we can use the exponential decay formula to calculate its height after another 3 hours.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7.5 cm}\underline{Exponential Decay Formula}\\\\$y=a(1-r)^t$\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $a$ is the initial value. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the decay factor (in decimal form).\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $t$ is the number of time periods.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

The initial value is the snowman's initial height, so a = 1.8.

The decay factor is 15%, so r = 0.15.

As we wish to calculate the snowman's height after another 3 hours, the value of t is t = 4 (i.e. the first hour plus a further 3 hours).

Substitute these values into the formula and solve for y (the height of the snowman):

[tex]\begin{aligned}y&=a(1-r)^t\\&=1.8(1-0.15)^4\\&=1.8(0.85)^4\\&=1.8(0.5220065)\\&=0.93961125\\&=0.9\; \sf m\;(nearest\;tenth)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, if the snowman continues to melt at the same rate, its height after another 3 hours will be 0.9 meters (to the nearest tenth).

Check by multiplying the height each hour by 0.85:

Answer:

Naomi will need to score at least 89% on her fourth test to have an average of 90% in her math class.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out what score Naomi needs to earn on her fourth test in order to have an average of 90%, we can set up an equation.

Let's denote the score on the fourth test as "x". Naomi has taken three tests, and their scores are 87%, 98%, and 86%. To find the average, we sum up all the scores and divide by the number of tests:

(87 + 98 + 86 + x) / 4 = 90

Now we can solve for x:

(87 + 98 + 86 + x) = 4 * 90

271 + x = 360

x = 360 - 271

x = 89

Naomi will need to score at least 89% on her fourth test to have an average of 90% in her math class.

To construct a truth table for the logical statement (~Q → P) ⋀ ~P, we need to consider all possible truth values for the variables Q and P. The symbol "~" represents negation or "not" in logic, so ~Q denotes "not Q" and ~P denotes "not P".

In the above table, we first list all possible truth values for P and Q and then determine the truth values for ~Q, ~Q → P, and ~P based on these values. Finally, we evaluate the logical statement (~Q → P) ⋀ ~P based on the truth values for (~Q → P) and ~P to determine the overall truth value of the statement for each combination of P and Q.

The output of the above truth table shows that the statement (~Q → P) ⋀ ~P is true only in one case when P is false and Q is true. In all other cases, the statement is false. Therefore, we can infer that the statement is not always true and hence it is not a tautology. The statement is only true in one specific case where P is false and Q is true.

Answer: $561.63

Step-by-step explanation: To find the distance you subtract 500 by -61.63

You get the equation 500--61.63

The two negative signs cancel out to become a positive sign

So the new equation is 500+61.63

So the distance is $561.63

Answer:

$561.63

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the distance between 500 and -61.63 it will be $500-$-61.63. So 500 - (-61.63) becomes 500 + 61.63 because 2 negatives in a row make a positive. So when you do 500+61.63, you'll get 561.63.

In 6 years Juan will have the double of Carlos age.

The ages of each one are:

Carlos = 18 years old.

Juan = 42 years old.

In x years, they will have:

C = 18 + x

J = 42 + x

Carlos will have the double of Juan's age when:

J = 2*C

Replacing the equations we will get the linear equation:

42 + x = 2*(18  + x)

Solving for x we will get:

42 +x = 36 + 2x

The meaure of m∠KJL in the circle is:

m∠KJL = 25°

Since ΔJKL is inscribed in circle P with diameter JK and mJL = 130°. Thus, m∠JLK is an inscribed angle.

Since an angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle.

Thus, m∠DFE = 90°

Since the measure of inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc. Thus:

m∠JKL = 1/2 * mJL

m∠JKL = 1/2 * 130

m∠JKL = 65°

Therefore:

m∠KJL = 180 - 90 - 65 = 25° (sum of angles in a triangle)

The total amount of money shared by Lee and Olivia is £132 and  Lee and Olivia shared £84 and £48, respectively.

Lee has 7/11 of the total money, which means Lee has (7/11) × x amount of money.

When Lee gives Olivia £18, they have the same amount of money.

So Olivia's share becomes equal to Lee's share.

Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

(7/11) × x - £18 = (1/2)×x

To solve this equation, we can simplify it:

7x/11 - £18 = x/2

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 22 (the least common multiple of 11 and 2) to eliminate the denominators:

14x - 22 × £18 = 11x

14x - 396 = 11x

Subtracting 11x from both sides:

14x - 11x - 396 = 0

3x - 396 = 0

Adding 396 to both sides:

3x = 396

Dividing both sides by 3:

x = 396/3

x = 132

To find Lee and Olivia's individual shares, we can substitute this value back into the initial conditions:

Lee's share = (7/11)× £132 = £84

The complete equation is x² + 1/2x -2 = 2 + 2

The given equation can be rewritten as:

x² + (1/2)x + () = 2 + ()

Since the equation involves two missing values, let's consider them one by one.

Solve for the first missing value indicated by (_):

To find the missing value indicated by (_), we equate the quadratic equation to 2:

x² + (1/2)x + (_) = 2

Comparing this with the standard form of a quadratic equation,

ax² + bx + c = 0, we have:

a = 1, b = 1/2, c = (_ - 2)

Using the quadratic formula, x = (-b ± √(b²- 4ac)) / (2a), we can substitute the values:

x = (-(1/2) ± √((1/2)² - 4(1)(_-2))) / (2(1))

x = (-1/2 ± √(1/4 + 8(1)(_-2))) / 2

x = (-1/2 ± √(1/4 + 8(_ - 2))) / 2

Therefore, the first missing value is represented by (_ - 2).

Solve for the second missing value indicated by (_):

To find the missing value indicated by (_), we equate the constant term to 2:

(_) = 2

This indicates that the second missing value is equal to 2.

Putting it all together, the solution to the equation x² + (1/2)x + _ = 2 + _ is:

x = (-1/2 ± √(1/4 + 8(_ - 2))) / 2

The custom cake baker charges a flat fee for each job, plus an hourly rate for the number of hours the job takes to complete. The total amount of her bill to the customer can be expressed by 40 + 25h where h is the hours it takes for the job.

Therefore, the coefficient h in the expression can be interpreted as follows:
total amount of bills = 40 + 25h

where

40 dollars is the flat fee for each job

Then the coefficient h means the hourly rate for the time taken for the job to be completed.

Answer:

The missing variable θ is equal to (11π)/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

ω = π/8 radian per min

t = 11 min

Step 1: Identify the formula and the missing variable.

The formula is ω = (θ/t), and we are trying to find the value of θ.

Step 2: Rearrange the formula to solve for the missing variable.

To isolate θ, we can multiply both sides of the equation by t:

ω * t = θ

Step 3: Substitute the given values.

Substituting the given values into the rearranged formula, we have:

θ = (π/8) * 11

Step 4: Simplify the expression.

To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators:

θ = (π * 11) / (8 * 1)

θ = (11π) / 8

Step 5: Finalize the answer.

The value of the missing variable θ is (11π)/8. This is the exact answer unless otherwise indicated.

Therefore, the step-by-step process shows that the missing variable θ is equal to (11π)/8.
