Answer: The function would be,

f(x)=12(2)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Park rangers released 12 fish into a pond in year 0,

Thus, the initial number of fish = 12,

Also, there were twice as many fish as the year before,

⇒ After 1 year the number of fishes = 2(12) = 12(2),

Similarly,

After 2 years = 2(12(2))= 12(2)²,

After 3 years = 2(12(2)²) = 12(2)³,

................, so on,....

Thus, the number of fishes after x years would be,

12(2)^x

Let f(x) represents the number of fish after x years,

\implies f(x) = 12(2)^x

Which is the required function that the given scenario.

Y = 12 + 2x

This is probably right. I'm 99% sure. :)

"The product" means you're multiplying the two numbers.
"a number" refers to a variable.
"increased" means you're adding.

2x + 7 = -36

In your own words, what are the steps to converting decimals to fractions
Elis [28]

Answer:

First

Step-by-step explanation:

You write down the decimal fraction like say .75 you put .75/1. Then you multiply both sides by 100 so .75/1 would turn into 75/100. Then all you have to do is simplify the fraction.

y = c1 cos(5x) + c2 sin(5x) is a two-parameter family of solutions of the second-order DE y'' + 25y = 0. If possible, find a sol
TEA [102]

Answer:

y = 2cos5x-9/5sin5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the solution to the differential equation y'' + 25y = 0 to be

y = c1 cos(5x) + c2 sin(5x). In order to find the solution to the differential equation given the boundary conditions y(0) = 1, y'(π) = 9, we need to first get the constant c1 and c2 and substitute the values back into the original solution.

According to the boundary condition y(0) = 2, it means when x = 0, y = 2

On substituting;

2 = c1cos(5(0)) + c2sin(5(0))

2 = c1cos0+c2sin0

2 = c1 + 0

c1 = 2

Substituting the other boundary condition y'(π) = 9, to do that we need to first get the first differential of y(x) i.e y'(x). Given

y(x) = c1cos5x + c2sin5x

y'(x) = -5c1sin5x + 5c2cos5x

If y'(π) = 9, this means when x = π, y'(x) = 9

On substituting;

9 = -5c1sin5π + 5c2cos5π

9 = -5c1(0) + 5c2(-1)

9 = 0-5c2

-5c2 = 9

c2 = -9/5

Substituting c1 = 2 and c2 = -9/5 into the solution to the general differential equation

y = c1 cos(5x) + c2 sin(5x) will give

y = 2cos5x-9/5sin5x

The final expression gives the required solution to the differential equation.
