First we would change the fractions into decimals and compare them. That way it would be easy to solve when needed.

1/2=0.50
5/8=0.625
1/8=0.125
   
Now we can see that 1/8 (0.125) is the smallest, followed by 1/2 (0.50), and 5/8 the largest. Now we can match the sizes with the insects.

Since the tiger beetle is the largest we will place that with the length of 5/8 since that is the largest.

The carpenter ant is second largest so it would be matched with 1/2

The aphid is the smallest so that would be with 1/8 as the smallest

*Hope that helped :D*

A lake is stocked with 1,500 young trout. If the number of the original trout alive after x years is given by the function P(x)=
musickatia [10]

The function P(x)=1500e^{-0.4x} gives the number of the original trout alive after x years. When the number of the original trout alive is 300, then

300=1500e^{-0.4x}

Solve this equation:

e^{-0.4x}=\dfrac{300}{1500},\\ \\e^{-0.4x}=\dfrac{1}{5},\\ \\-0.4x=\ln \dfrac{1}{5},\\ \\x=\dfrac{\ln \dfrac{1}{5}}{-0.4}\approx 4.024.

Answer: after 4.024 year (or 5 year if round to the whole number of years)
