Answer:

2q + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify, we will use the distributive property.

-(2q + 6) simplifies to -2q - 6 (In this case we are distributing the - sign or -1)

3(2q + 4) simplifies to 6q + 12

So if we recombine: -2q - 6 + 6q + 12 - 2q

Let's combine like terms (q's with q's, numbers with numbers)

-2q + -2q + 6q = 2q

-6 + 12 = 6

So if we recombine: 2q + 6

When will the equation p(b)=520(0.88)^b have a value less than 100?

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The given equation will have value less than 100 whenever the value of b is greater than 12.89

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given equation, p(b) = 520 × $0.88^{b}$ to have a value less than 100 we can establish inequality as:

p(b) < 100

or, 520 × $0.88^{b}$ < 100

or, $\frac{520}{520}$ × $0.88^{b}$ < $\frac{100}{520}$

or, $0.88^{b}$ < $\frac{1}{5.2}$

or, ㏒ ( $0.88^{b}$ ) < ㏒ ( $\frac{1}{5.2}$ )

or, b× ㏒ 0.88 < ㏒ ( $\frac{1}{5.2}$ )

or, $\frac{log (\frac{1}{5.2}) }{log (0.88)}$ < b

or, 12.89 < b

Hence for the equation to have value less than 100, b must be greater than 12.89.

And a wildlife preserve 46 ducks are captured tagged and then released. Later to her ducks are examined in four of the 200 ducks

docker41 [41]

Answer:

2300

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Out of 200 , four ducks are tagged.

We have to find the number of ducks in the preserve if 46 ducks are tagged.

Let x be the number of ducks in the preserve.

If number of tagged ducks increases then number of preserved ducks also increases.It is in direct proportion.

According to question

$\frac{x}{46}=\frac{200}{4}$

$x=\frac{200\times 46}{4}$

$x=50\times 46$

x=2300
