Write the equation that translates the absolute value function three units to the right.

Given: f(x)=3x+2 and g(x)=5x

What is the simplified composition g(f(x))?

15x+10

What is the mistake in the following: 

10 = 3e2x+1

10/3 = e2x+1
​

log(10/3) = (2x+1)log(e)

log(10/3) = 2x+1

x = ( log(10/3) - 1 ) / 2

log(e) does NOT equal one - so in line 4, they should have divided by log(e) and their final answer should have a log(e).


Note: Using log vs. ln is NOT the mistake - you can always use either. The issue is in the simplification.

Write a function for the situation: 

A population of 18000 bees is decreasing by 3.8% every six years. Where p(t) is the population at t years.

p(t) = 18000(1-.038)t/6 or equivalently 

p(t) = 18000(0.962)t/6

In Burlington, WI - there used to be a place called the Sci-Fi Cafe. It was weird. Ms. Dexter went once with some high school friends and was told that you could summon fairies (well, only women could - sorry, guys) by putting out rings of M&Ms (this is not a joke - this really happened to her.) Ms. Dexter lays out a huge ring of M&Ms. Initially, she finds 10 fairies (this part did NOT actually happen). 4.5 weeks later, there are 83 fairies. Assuming exponential growth - what would be the r value in the model P=Poert model for this situation? Give 6 decimal places!

r = 0.470279

A population (in millions) is decreasing such that:

p(t) = 500 / (1 + e-0.065t) where t is measured in decades.

In how many years will the population reach 300 million? Round to the nearest hundredth.

62.38 years.

The Loggers stadium has 6000 seats and sells tickets for $13. At this price, they sell about 4,800 seats. Market research says that for each 50 cent decrease in price, they'll sell 50 more seats. Write an equation for the profit AND state the relevant domain.

Equation: (4800+50x)(13-0.5x)
