Hello!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We want that the fractions 3/11 and 1/4 have a common denominator.
Let's find the LCM (least common multiple) of 4 and 11:
So the LCM of 4 and 11 is 44.
Convert fractions over 44:

Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
b/2-3
substitute 8 for b
8/2-3
then solve
8/2-3
8/-1
-8
The annual growth rates for each factor are:
1. the land required to grow a unit of food, -1% (due to greater productivity per unit of land)
2. the amount of food grown per calorie of food eaten by a human, +0.5%
3. per capita calorie consumption, +0.1%
4. the size of the population, +1.5%.
Required:
At these rates, how long would it take to double the amount of cultivated land needed? At that time, how much less land would be required to grow a unit of food?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following annual growth rates:
land/food = - 1%
food/kcal = 0.5%
kcal/person = 0.1%
population = 1.5%
Σ annual growth rates = (-1 + 0.5 + 0.1 + 1.5)% = 1.1% = 0.011
Exponential growth in Land :
L = Lo * e^(rt)
Where Lo = Initial ; L = increase after t years ; r = growth rate
Time for amount of cultivated land to double
L = 2 * initial
L = 2Lo
2Lo = Lo * e^(rt)
2 = e^(0.011t)
Take the In of both sides
In(2) = 0.011t
0.6931471 = 0.011t
t = 0.6931471 / 0.011
t = 63.01 years
Land per unit of food at t = 63.01 years
L = Fo * e^(rt)
r = growth rate of land required to grow a unit of food = 1% = 0.01
L/Fo = e^(-0.01* 63.01)
L/Fo = e^(−0.6301)
= 0.5325385 = 0.53253 * 100% = 53.25%
Land per unit now takes (100% - 53.25%) = 46.75%

Exponential Grow Model
The equation to model some time dependant event as an exponential is
Where Ao is the initial value, k is a constant and t is the time. With the value of Ao and k, we can compute the value of A for any time
We are required to find the time when the population being modeled doubles from Ao to 2 Ao. We need to solve the equation
Simplifying by Ao
Taking logarithms in both sides
By properties of logarithms and since lne=1
Solving for t
Hence proven
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a few ways to go about doing this problem. I am going to setup a function.
x = seconds
f(x) = distance = How far
f(x) = (3.0* 10^8) x
Insert 10^5 where x is located
(3.0* 10^8) x
Multiply
(3.0* 10^8) (10^5)
Do the math
(3.0* 10^8) (10^5) = 3 * 10^13
