1. Contaminated water is subjected to a cleaning process. The concentration of the pollutants is initially 5 mg per liter of water. If the cleaning process can reduce the
pollutant by 10% each hour, define a function that can represent the concentration
of pollutants in the water in terms of the number of hours that the cleaning process
has taken place.

11. a particular type of cell doubles in number every hour. which function can be used to find the number of cells present at the end of h hours if there are initially 4 of these cells? a. n = 4 ()" b. n = 4(2)" c. n = 4 + (2)" din = 4 +"

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24
