Sociologists have found that information spreads exponentially in a population. accordingly, the formula y = 525( 1 - e-0.038t ) models the spread of information in a population of 525 people within t hours. how many people will have heard of the new grocery store within 24 hours of its announcement?

To identify the number of people who would have heard the news about the newly opened grocery store in the venue, we just have to substitute 24 hours in the equation provided. That is,
                             y = 525(1 - e^((-0.038)(24))
                             y = 314.1
Thus, the approximate number of people which would have heard the news is approximately 314 people. 

The correct option is:

A rectangle that is 5.4 in x 16.2 in

Step-by-step explanation:

As the container is lying on its side, and the scanner scans from the top, it means that scanner will get a 2D of cylinder where its length and width can be seen

First, whenever a cylinder is look at from one side, it will look like a rectangle.

As the cylinder is fitted with 3 balls along its length, the length of the rectangle will be equal to the sum of diameters of all three balls, that is 5.4+5.4+5.4 = 16.2 inches

As only one ball fits along the width of the, the width of the container will be equal to diameter of one ball, that is 5.4 inches

Hence, a rectangle will formed, with the dimensions of 5.4 × 16.2 in
