Anon-food crop is infected by pests on the 1st of a month. the pests infect the crop in such a way that the area infected doubles after each month. if the pests continue to infect the crop in this way, the non-food crop will be entirely infected after the sixth month. after which month will one-eighth of the non-food crop be infected? one-eighth of the non-food crop will be infected after the second month. one-eighth of the non-food crop will be infected after the fifth month. one-eighth of the non-food crop will be infected after the third month. one-eighth of the non-food crop will be infected after the fourth month.

One-eighth of the non-food crop will be infected after the third month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A non-food crop is infected by pests on the 1st of a month. The pests infect the crop in such a way that the area infected doubles after each month.

To Find:  After which month will one-eighth of the non-food crop be infected?

Solution:

Equation :  --A

Where y is the amount after x months

is the initial amount

After six months the non-food crop will be entirely infected.

Now we are supposed to find After which month will one-eighth of the non-food crop be infected i.e.  --B

On comparing A and B

So, x-6 = -3

x = 3

Hence One-eighth of the non-food crop will be infected after the third month.

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
