Answer:

a.

Month\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Pop(whole \ ant)\\month1 => x_1=80\times0.94^1=1128\\month2=>x_2=1200\times0.94^2=1060\\month3=>x_3=1200\times0.94^3=996\\month4=>x_4=1200\times0.94^4=936

b.

week Number\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Mass(g)\\week1 => x_1=80\times1.1^1=88g\\week2=>x_2=80\times1.1^2=96.8g\\week3=>x_3=80\times1.1^3=106.48g\\week4=>x_4=80\times1.1^4=117.128g

Step-by-step explanation:

a. From the information provided, we can deduce that the population death's follows a Geometric sequence in the form (a,ar,ar^2,ar^3...) where a-first \ term and r-common \ ratio

#Since the population is reducing, r can is obtained as r=1-r=0.94

#The n^t^h term is obtained using the formula x_n=ar^(^n^-^1^), given a=1200

The number of ants alive after every month (in first 4 months)

Month\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Pop(whole \ ant)\\month1 => x_1=80\times0.94^1=1128\\month2=>x_2=1200\times0.94^2=1060\\month3=>x_3=1200\times0.94^3=996\\month4=>x_4=1200\times0.94^4=936

The ant's alive after 4 months is obtained as the value of x_5

x_n=ar^(^n^-^1^)\\1-x_5=1-1200\times 0.94^4=936.89\\\approx 936

Hence, 936 ants are alive after 4 months.

b. As with the above question, the kitten population follows a geometric sequence: (a,ar,ar^2,ar^3...).

#Since it's a growing population , the common ration is the sum of 100% + the growth rate,

r=1.1 and a=80 and x_n=ar^(^n^-^1^)

The population after 4weeks will be:

week Number\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Mass(g)\\week1 => x_1=80\times1.1^1=88g\\week2=>x_2=80\times1.1^2=96.8g\\week3=>x_3=80\times1.1^3=106.48g\\week4=>x_4=80\times1.1^4=117.128g

2х + Зу = 5<br> у= 5 - x <br> also need method
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

x=10, y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3y=5, y= 5-x; change y to 5-x:

2x+3(5-x)=5

2x-3x+15=5

-x=5-15

-x=-10

x=10

=>y=5-x=5-10=-5

Hodel just got her driver's license. Her parents offer her two options. 1. They'll buy her a used car that will cost her $0.50 p
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The second option will cost her less than the first one.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we will create two functions to represent the cost of the car in function of the miles drove by her.

For the first option we have:

cost_1(x) = 0.5*x

For the second option we have:

cost_2(x) = 5000 + 0.1*x

Since she intends to drive it for 10,000 miles per year for 6 years, then the total mileage she intends to drive her car is 60,000 miles. Applying this to the formula of each car and we have:

cost_1(60000) = 0.5*60000 = 30000

cost_2(60000) = 5000 + 60000*0.1 = 11000

The second option will cost her less than the first one.
