The number of cows is given by

14\cdot 2^{\frac{y}{5}}

So, after k years, the number of cows will be

14\cdot 2^{\frac{y+k}{5}}

We want this number to be twice as much as the original:

14\cdot 2^{\frac{y+k}{5}} = 2(14\cdot 2^{\frac{y}{5}})

First of all, we can cancel 14 from both sides:

2^{\frac{y+k}{5}} = 2\cdot 2^{\frac{y}{5}}

Finally, on the right hand side, we can use the exponent rule

a^b\cdot a^c=a^{b+c}

to get

2^{\frac{y+k}{5}} = 2^{\frac{y}{5}+1}

To solve this equation, we must impose that the two exponents are the same:

\dfrac{y+k}{5} = \dfrac{y}{5}+1 \iff \dfrac{y+k}{5} = \dfrac{y+5}{5}

And clearly this is true if and only if k=5. So, it will take 5 years for the cow heard to double in number.

You can do the exact same steps to find the doubling time for the sheeps.

In one town 44% of all voters are Democrats if two voters are randomly selected for a survey find the probability that they are
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

0.194


Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that BOTH are democrats means probability of <u>"one being democrat"</u> AND <u>"another also being democrat"</u>.

The AND means we need to MULTIPLY the individual probability of a person being democrat.

Probability that a voter is democrat is 44% (0.44) -- stated in the problem


Now, Probability BOTH being Democrats is simply MULTIPLYING 0.44 with 0.44

0.44*0.44=0.1936

Rounded to nearest thousandth, 0.194

Last answer choice is correct.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Given Asin(wt + phi), we know that sin (A + B) = sinAcosB + sinBcosA. This means:

Asin(wt + phi) = Asin(wt)cos(phi) + Asin(phi)cos(wt).

Let Acos(phi) = c2 and Asin(phi) = c1 we have:

Asin(wt + phi) = c2sin(wt) + c1cos(wt)
