Answer:
D) (0, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution of two linear equations is the point of intersection of their graphs.
From the graph, the point of intersection of the graphs of the two linear equations is on the y-axis. So, the value on the
axis is always 0. Also, the point is below the x-axis. So, the
value of the point will be negative.
From the choices given, only (0,-3) matches the above conditions.
Therefore, the correct choice is D. (0, -3).
Answer:
The population will be 896 turtles 6 years later ⇒ B
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential increasing formula is y = a, where
- y is the new value
- a is the initial value
- r is the rate of increase in decimal
- x is the time in years
∵ There are 300 turtles
∴ a = 300
∵ The population of the turtles exponentially increases 20% each year
∴ r = 20%
→ Divide it by 100 to change it to decimal
∵ 20% = 20 ÷ 100 = 0.2
∴ r = 0.2
∵ The time is 6 years
∴ x = 6
→ Substitute these values in the exponential formula above
∵ y = 300
∴ y = 300
∴ y = 895.7952
→ Round it to the nearest whole number
∴ y = 896
∴ The population will be 896 turtles 6 years later
