The native bird population in a city is decreasing at a rate of 10% per year due to industrialization of the area by humans. The

population of native birds was 14,000 before the decrease began.

Answer:

The recursively-defined function to describe this situation is:

  • f(0) = <u>14000</u>
  • f(n) = f(n - 1) · 0.9 , for n ≥ 1
  • After 3 years, <u>10206</u> birds will remain.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the number of birds that there will be after three years, you must recognize that the function f(0) means the number of birds at time zero, in which the birds are complete (that is, the 14,000 birds), by their part, following the equation provided below we have the following calculation:

  • f(n) = f(n-1) * 0.9

So:

  • f(1) = f(0) * 0.9 = 14000 * 0.9 = 12600
  • f(2) = f(1) * 0.9 = 12600 * 0.9 = 11340
  • <u>f(3) = f(2) * 0.9 = 11340 * 0.9 = 10206 </u>

Therefore, <u>the final number of birds after three years in decline is 10206</u>.

The cost of a jacket increased from $85.00 to $94.35. What is the percentage increase of the cost of the jacket?
Serggg [28]
It's an 11% increase. To find this,  you have to subtract 85 from 94.35 and then you divide that difference by the original amount. In this case it's 85. After that, you get .11. Then you just turn it into a percent.

A certain television is advertised as a 59-inch TV (the diagonal length). If the width of
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

32.9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base = 49

c =  hypotenuse = diagonal = 59

l² + 49² = 59²

l² = 59² - 49²

3481 - 2401 = 1080

find the square root

10 Points mark brainly, The equation of the line in this graph is y = ___ x + ___ .
Brilliant_brown [7]
Hello!

First of all, let's find the slope, which is the rise/run. We have the points (-4,-3) and (-2,0). To get the run there, we move to the left two units. We rise up three units as well. Therefore our slope is positive. We have rise/run, which is 3/2 as our slope.

Now, b is the y-intercept, or when our line intersects with the y-axis. We can see that it intersects at a y-value of 3.

We can write our equation below.

y=3/2x+3

I hope this helps!

Asa received scores of 72, 97, and 82 on her last three math tests. She needs a mean test score of 82 to qualify for the math te
Flauer [41]

Scores are {72, 97, 82, x} where x is the unknown fourth score

They add up to 72+97+82+x = x+251

Divide this sum over four because there are four scores we want to average out. We end up with (x+251)/4 = M where M is the mean. Asa wants the mean to be 82, so make M = 82.

We can replace M with 82 and solve for x like so

(x+251)/4 = M

(x+251)/4 = 82

x+251 = 4*82

x+251 = 328

x = 328-251

x = 77

Asa needs a score of 77 on the fourth test so that the mean of the four tests is 82. If she scores higher than 77 on the fourth test, then the mean will be larger than 82.

-----------------------------------

Depending on what your teacher is looking for, the first step is to establish your variable. So you would say "let x = fourth score". However, that seems too easy. So perhaps your teacher is looking for the equation (x+251)/4 = 82 or some variant of it.
