Answer:

2007

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

p(x)=0.65x^{2} -0.047x+2

This is a vertical parabola open upward

The vertex represent a minimum

p(x) is the population in thousands for a species of fish

x is the number of years since 1997

Remember that p(x) is in thousands

so

If the population reach 66,530 fish

then

the value of p(x) is equal to

p(x)=66.53

substitute in the quadratic equation

66.53=0.65x^{2} -0.047x+2

0.65x^{2} -0.047x+2-66.53=0

0.65x^{2} -0.047x-64.53=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solution is x=10 years

see the attached figure

therefore

Find the year

Adds 10 years to 1997

1997+10=2007

Answer:

x=4

x=17.9

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first diagram.

cos(45°)=x/4√2

x=4√2cos(45°)

x=4

For the second diagram

tan(38°)=14/x

0.781=14/x

x=14/0.781=17.9
