A student uses the method of successive approximations to estimate a positive solution of f(x) = g(x), where f(x) = x2 +10 and g(x) = 2x + 17. The table shows her results for diferent input values of x Using this method, the next number selected should be between ___ and __

Find the value of the variable and the length of each secant segment.

Maria donates a fixed amount, a, to a charity each month. if she donates $300 in 12 months, what is the equation for a? a. a + 300 = 12 b. a × 300 = 12 c. a × 12 = 300 d. a + 12 = 300 e. a + 32 = 100

Browning labs is testing a new growth inhibitor for a certain type of bacteria. the bacteria naturally grows exponentially each hour at a rate of 6.2%. the researchers know that the inhibitor will make the growth rate of the bacteria less than or equal to its natural growth rate. the sample currently contains 100 bacteria.the container holding the sample can hold only 300 bacteria, after which the sample will no longer grow. however, the researchers are increasing the size of the container at a constant rate allowing the container to hold 100 more bacteria each hour. they would like to determine the possible number of bacteria in the container over time.create a system of inequalities to model the situation above, and use it to determine how many of the solutions are viable.
