To find the doubling time, set \( b(t) = 2 \cdot b(0) \) and solve for \( t \): \( 15,000 \cdot (1.06)^{t/100} = 30,000 \). Use logarithms to isolate \( t \) and convert to hours.

Substitute \( b = 8 \) into the equation: \( 2.5d + 3.5(8) = 70 \Rightarrow 2.5d + 28 = 70 \Rightarrow 2.5d = 42 \Rightarrow d = 16 \).

Testing each pair shows that only \( (4, 5) \) satisfies both equations.

The lines have the same slope but different intercepts, indicating that they are parallel and do not intersect at any point.

The change in degrees Fahrenheit is determined by multiplying the temperature increase in kelvins by \( \frac{9}{5} \), since the \( x \) term in the function is being multiplied by this factor. Therefore, the increase in Fahrenheit temperature is \( \frac{9}{5} \times 2.10 = 3.78 \).

Plug in the slope \( m = -2 \) and point \( (3, 7) \) into the point-slope formula to find the equation \( y = -2x + 13 \).

In the function g(x) = -3x + 50, the y-intercept (where x = 0) represents the initial amount of dough the baker had before making any loaves. When x = 0, g(0) = 50, indicating that the baker started with 50 pounds of dough.

Since \( \triangle PQR \) and \( \triangle STU \) are congruent, corresponding angles are equal. Angle \( Q \) and \( T \) are right angles, so each measures 90°. Therefore, angle \( U \) must be equal to angle \( P \), which is 25°.

First, find the measure of angle T in radians: \( \frac{2\pi}{3} + \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{11\pi}{12} \). Then, convert to degrees by multiplying by \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \( \frac{11\pi}{12} \cdot \frac{180}{\pi} = 165 \) degrees.

Using \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \), we find the minimum value occurs at \( x = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \).

Calculate percentages: Candidate P received \( \frac{725}{1000} = 0.725 \), or 72.5%. Candidate Q received \( \frac{275}{1000} = 0.275 \), or 27.5%. If 8,000 people vote, Candidate P would receive \( 0.725 \times 8000 = 5800 \) votes, and Candidate Q \( 0.275 \times 8000 = 2200 \) votes. The difference is \( 5800 - 2200 = 3600 \) votes.

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(n x - 72) + 36 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)n^2 < 36[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]n[/latex] is 6.

The decay factor is 0.68 every half-year, which means it decays by 32% each six months. This translates to approximately a 55% annual decay rate, so \(p = 55\).

Both sides simplify to \( 3y - 9 \), which are identical. Therefore, the equation is true for all values of y, leading to infinitely many solutions.

For the system to have no solution, the lines must be parallel. This means their slopes must be equal. Rewrite each equation in slope-intercept form to compare slopes, leading to k = 5.

Only \( (3, 3) \) is a solution that satisfies both equations.

Multiplying the first equation by -2 results in \( -2x + 8y = -6 \), which matches the second equation. Thus, the lines are the same, intersecting at infinitely many points.

The lines have different slopes, indicating that they will intersect at exactly one point.

Solving by elimination or substitution, we find that \( y = 14 \).

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(6x\), from the expression: \(6x(x^2 + 4x + 5)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 4x + 5\) as \((x + 1)(x + 5)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 1.

Using \( P = 40,000 \) and \( C = 5,000 \), set up the equation \( 40,000 = 5,000(2)^{5r} \). Dividing both sides by 5,000 gives \( 8 = (2)^{5r} \). Taking the logarithm base 2 of both sides yields \( 3 = 5r \). Therefore, \( r = \frac{3}{5} \).

Convert the area to square miles by dividing by \(1760^2\): \(10,240,000 / 3,097,600 = 3.31\) square miles.

Using the slope \( \frac{1}{3} \) and point \( (-3, 5) \) in the point-slope formula, the resulting equation is \( y = \frac{1}{3}x + 6 \).

Substitute values from each answer choice into both equations. Only \( (5, 10) \) satisfies both equations.

The sum of the solutions of a polynomial equation can be determined using the relationship between the coefficients and the sum of the roots. For each factor, find the solutions and sum them. The given information specifies that the total sum of solutions is \( \frac{20}{3} \), which leads to solving for \( p \).

Both equations are identical, which means the lines coincide perfectly and intersect at infinitely many points.

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(2x\), from the expression: \(2x(x^2 + 9x + 16)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 9x + 16\) as \((x + 4)(x + 9)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 4.

Expanding the equation, we obtain \( 2x^2 + 3x - 9 = 4x^2 - 24x \). Rearranging terms, we get \( -2x^2 + 27x - 9 = 0 \). Using the quadratic formula, the sum of the solutions is given by \( -b/a \), where \( a = -2 \) and \( b = 27 \), which yields \( 27/2 \).

Calculate the percentages: Candidate A received \( \frac{600}{1000} = 0.6 \), or 60%. Candidate B received \( \frac{400}{1000} = 0.4 \), or 40%. If 10,000 people vote, Candidate A is expected to receive \( 0.6 \times 10000 = 6000 \) votes, and Candidate B \( 0.4 \times 10000 = 4000 \) votes. The difference is \( 6000 - 4000 = 2000 \) votes.

The volume of a cube is \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 343 \), find \( s = \sqrt[3]{343} = 7 \). The surface area formula is \( 6s^2 \). Therefore, the surface area is \( 6(7)^2 = 294 \) square units.

To find the surface area of the cube, we need to determine its side length. The formula for the volume of a cube is \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 474552 \), solve for \( s \): \( s = \sqrt[3]{474552} \approx 78 \). The formula for surface area is \( 6s^2 \). Thus, the surface area is \( 6(78)^2 = 36,504 \) square units.

Find the slope using the points, then derive the line's equation. Set \(x = n + 2\) to find \(b = 48\).

We use the Pythagorean theorem: \( c^2 = 9^2 + 12^2 = 81 + 144 = 225 \). Therefore, \( c = \sqrt{225} = 15 \). The hypotenuse can be written as \( 3\sqrt{25} \), so \( d = 25 \).

To convert from square yards to square miles, divide the area by \(1760^2\): \(5,904,900 / 3,097,600 = 1.91\) square miles.

Let the number of small candles be represented by \( x \), and the number of large candles by \( y \). The total number of candles is at least 200, so we have the inequality:

\( x + y geq 200 \).

The budget constraint is that the total cost must not exceed $2,200. Therefore, we have the equation:

\( 4.90x + 11.60y leq 2,200 \).

We want to maximize the number of large candles, \( y \). First, solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \) using the inequality:

\( x = 200 - y \).

Substitute this into the budget constraint:

\( 4.90(200 - y) + 11.60y leq 2,200 \)

Simplify:

\( 980 - 4.90y + 11.60y leq 2,200 \)

Combine like terms:

\( 980 + 6.70y leq 2,200 \)

Subtract 980 from both sides:

\( 6.70y leq 1,220 \)

Solve for \( y \):

\( y leq rac{1,220}{6.70} approx 182.09 \)

Since the number of candles must be an integer, the maximum number of large candles is 182.

Expanding the right side results in \( 10a - 3 \), which is identical to the left side. Therefore, the equation holds for all values of a, implying infinitely many solutions.

Rewrite both equations in slope-intercept form. To have no solution, the slopes must be equal but the y-intercepts must differ. Solving, we find m = -6.

The function increases by 20%, which means it becomes 1.20 times its previous value at each step. The multiplier is 1.20. Therefore, the correct equation is \( g(x) = 30(1.20)^x \).

Since the triangles are similar, corresponding angles have equal trigonometric ratios, so \( \sin(U) = \sin(R) = \frac{40}{41} \).

The system has no solution when the slopes are the same but the lines have different intercepts. Solving this condition gives n = 45.

The function \(q(x) = 1.3x\) represents a proportional increase, showing a steady, linear growth with respect to \(x\). Therefore, 'Increasing Linear' is correct.

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 150 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 150 to get the equation \(P = \frac{w}{75}\).

In the equation 4𝑛 + 25𝑚 = 1,150, the coefficient 4 corresponds to the bird sanctuary, meaning 𝑛 represents the number of nests per hectare in the bird sanctuary.

Congruent triangles have corresponding angles that are equal. Since \( L \) and \( O \) correspond, angle \( O \) must be 40°.
