A scientist is studying the population growth rates of two different species of rats in the same laboratory conditions. The popu

lation of species A is represented by the equation below, where P represents the population at the end of x weeks.
P=2^x+19

The population of species B is represented by the equation below, where P represents the population at the end of x weeks.

P=3^x+18

Which statement is true?

A. At the end of 18 weeks, species A and species B will have the same population.
B. At the end of 21 weeks, species A and species B will have the same population.
C. At the end of 3 weeks, species A and species B will have the same population.
D. At the end of 1 week, species A and species B will have the same population.

Since, population of species A is represented by : P=2^{x} +19

Let us find the population of species A, at the end of week 1:

i.e., x = 1

i.e., P(1)=2^{1} +19

i.e., P(1)=2 +19

i.e., P(1)=21


Also, since population of species B is represented by : P=3^{x} +18

Let us find the population of species B, at the end of week 1:

i.e., x = 1

i.e., P(1)=3^{1} +18

i.e., P(1)=3 +18

i.e., P(1)=21


Thus, at the end of 1 week, species A and species B will have the same population.

Hence, option D is correct.

If tan fº = 2/1 and the measure of yw is 8 units, what is the measure of xw?
erma4kov [3.2K]

*see attachment for the figure referred to

Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that tan(f) = \frac{2}{1}, therefore, it follows that:

tan(f) = \frac{opp}{adjacent} = \frac{YW}{XW} = \frac{8}{XW},

If the ratio of YW to XW = 2:1, therefore, \frac{2}{1} = \frac{8}{XW}

Cross multiply to find XW

XW*2 = 8*1

XW = \frac{8}{2} = 4 units
