The total number of pawpaws was 160, which can be found by using simple equations considering the amount taken by Eric and the proportion.

Let's start by finding out how many pawpaws are left after Mark takes 1/4 of the total. Let T be the total number of pawpaws. Mark gets 1/4 of T, which means there are 3/4 of T left:

3/4T = Total number of pawpaws - Mark's share

3/4T = T - 1/4T

3/4T = 3/4T

So, 3/4T is the amount shared between Eric and Francis. The ratio of Eric's share to Francis' share is 2:3. Let's call Eric's share E and Francis's share F.

E/F = 2/3

We can use this ratio to write an equation for Eric's share in terms of F:

E/F = 2/3

E = (2/3)F

We know Eric's share is 48, so we can substitute that into the equation and solve for F:

E = (2/3)F

48 = (2/3)F

F = (48*3)/2

F = 72

So, Francis has 72 pawpaws.

We can now find out how many pawpaws Mark got:

Mark's share + Eric's share + Francis's share = Total number of pawpaws

1/4T + E + F = T

1/4T + 48 + 72 = T

T = 480/3

T = 160

So, the total number of pawpaws is 160. Mark got 1/4 of the total, which is:

Mark's share = (1/4)*160 = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Let P(t) be the number of people infected by the virus at time t (in days). We can model the situation with the following exponential function:

P(t) = 400 * 1.25^t

Here, 400 represents the initial number of infected people, and 1.25 represents the growth factor, since the virus is spreading to 25% more people each day.

To find the number of people infected after t days, we can substitute t = (log(3000) - log(400)) / log(1.25) into the equation:

P(t) = 400 * 1.25^t

P(t) = 400 * 1.25^((log(3000) - log(400)) / log(1.25))

P(t) ≈ 2,343

Therefore, approximately 2,343 people are infected when the total number of infections reaches 3000.

4. Let P(t) be the population of the town at time t (in years). We can model the situation with the following exponential function:

P(t) = 10,800 * 0.975^t

Here, 10,800 represents the initial population in 2002, and 0.975 represents the decay factor, since the population is decreasing at a rate of 2.5% each year.

To find when the population reaches half the 2002 value, we can set P(t) = 5,400 and solve for t:

5,400 = 10,800 * 0.975^t

0.5 = 0.975^t

log(0.5) = t * log(0.975)

t ≈ 28.2

Therefore, the population will reach half the 2002 value in approximately 28.2 years, which corresponds to the year 2030.

Answer:

3) 9.03 days

4)  27.38 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To model the spread of the virus over time, we can use an exponential function in the form:

[tex]\large\boxed{P(t) = P_0(1 + r)^t}[/tex]

where:

Given the virus has infected 400 people in the town and is spreading to 25% more people each day:

Substitute these values into the formula to create a function for P in terms of t:

[tex]P(t) = 400(1 + 0.25)^t[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = 400(1.25)^t[/tex]

To find how many days it will take for 3000 people to be infected, set P(t) equal to 3000 and solve for t:

[tex]\begin{aligned}P(t)&=3000\\\implies 400(1.25)^t&=3000\\(1.25)^t&=7.5 \\\ln (1.25)^t&=\ln(7.5)\\t \ln (1.25)&=\ln(7.5)\\t &=\dfrac{\ln(7.5)}{\ln (1.25)}\\t&=9.02962693...\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, it will take approximately 9.03 days for the virus to infect 3000 people, assuming the daily growth rate remains constant at 25%.

Note: After 9 days, 2980 people would be infected. After 10 days, 3725 people would be infected.

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

To model the population of the town over time, we can use an exponential function in the form:

[tex]\large\boxed{P(t) = P_0(1 - r)^t}[/tex]

where:

Given the initial population was 10,800 and the population has decreased at a rate of 2.5% each year:

Substitute these values into the formula to create a function for P in terms of t:

[tex]P(t) = 10800(1 -0.025)^t[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = 10800(0.975)^t[/tex]

To find how many days it will take for the population to halve, set P(t) equal to 5400 and solve for t:

[tex]\begin{aligned}P(t)&=5400\\\implies 10800(0.975)^t&=5400\\(0.975)^t&=0.5 \\\ln (0.975)^t&=\ln(0.5)\\t \ln (0.975)&=\ln(0.5)\\t &=\dfrac{\ln(0.5)}{\ln (0.975)}\\t&=27.3778512...\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, it will take approximately 27.38 years for the population to reach half the 2002 value, assuming the annual decay rate remains constant at 2.5%.

The probability that Anita gets a purple tulip and Lois gets a pink rose is 1/9.

Total number of flowers in the bouquet = 7 purple tulips + 9 yellow daisies + 12 pink roses = 28 flowers.

P(Anita gets a purple tulip) = 7 purple tulips / 28 total flowers = 7/28 = 1/4.

P(Lois gets a pink rose) = 12 pink roses / 27 remaining flowers = 12/27 = 4/9.

P(Anita gets a purple tulip and Lois gets a pink rose) = P(Anita gets a purple tulip) * P(Lois gets a pink rose)

The number of students in each row after any number of years, as long as the increase in rows and columns is uniform every year.

Assuming that the increase in rows and columns is uniform every year, we can derive the formula for the number of students in each row as follows:

Let's start with the initial number of rows and columns, which we'll call R0 and C0, respectively, and the number of students in each row, which we'll call S.

After one year, the number of rows and columns will increase by 5, so we'll have R1 = R0 + 5 and C1 = C0 + 5. The total number of students will be R1 x S. We can also express this in terms of the initial number of rows and columns as:

R1 x S = (R0 + 5) x S

Expanding the brackets, we get:

R1 x S = R0 x S + 5 x S

Subtracting R0 x S from both sides, we get:

(R1 - R0) x S = 5 x S

Dividing both sides by 5 x (R1 - R0), we get:

S = 5 / (R1 - R0)

We can use this formula to calculate the number of students in each row after any number of years, as long as the increase in rows and columns is uniform every year.

The expected value for a person buying a ticket is $0.35 rounded to the nearest cent.

The expected value is calculated considering the probabilities of winning each prize and the corresponding values of each prize.

Assuming:

P($25) as the probability of winning the $25 prize

P($10) as the probability of winning the $10 prize

There are 100 tickets sold, therefore, the probabilities can be found as follows:

P($25) = 1/100 (since there is only 1 $25 prize)

P($10) = 1/100 (since there is only 1 $10 prize)

The expected value (E), will then be:

E = P($25) * $25 + P($10) * $10

E = (1/100) * $25 + (1/100) * $10

If we shift it up by 3 units, then we get:

y = [ (x - 1)^2 - 3 ] + 3 = (x - 1)^2

If now we shift it to the left 5 units, then we get:

Based on the given polynomial function, as x approaches positive or negative infinity, the function f(x) = 2x³ - 3x - 4x⁴ + 1 approaches negative infinity.

The end behavior of a polynomial function is determined as follows:

Examine the leading term of the function f(x) = -4x⁴ + 2x³ - 3x + 1

The leading term of the function is -4x⁴.

For large positive values of x, as x approaches positive infinity, the leading term -4x⁴ becomes increasingly negative since x⁴ grows faster than any positive constant.

Therefore, the end behavior of the function as x approaches positive infinity is that f(x) approaches negative infinity.

Similarly, for large negative values of x, as x approaches negative infinity, the leading term -4x⁴ becomes increasingly negative since x⁴ grows faster than any positive constant.

Therefore, the end behavior of the function as x approaches negative infinity is that f(x) approaches negative infinity.
