Answer:
<em>C. 3.8 years</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Exponential Growth
</u>
The natural growth of some magnitudes can be modeled by the equation:
Where P is the actual amount of the magnitude, Po is its initial amount, r is the growth rate and t is the time.
The actual population of deer in a forest is Po=800 individuals. It's been predicted the population will grow at a rate of 20% per year (r=0.2).
We have enough information to write the exponential model:
It's required to find the number of years required for the population of deers to double, that is, P = 2*Po = 1600. We need to solve for t:
Dividing by 800:
Taking logarithms:
Dividing by log 1.2:
Calculating:
t = 3.8 years
Answer: C. 3.8 years
The answer would be A, 21. This is because 16 is 2/3 of 24 and 14 is 2/3 of 21
0.75 miles in 12 minutes
0.75 * 5 miles in one hour
15 / 4 miles in an hour
she walked at 3.75 mph
this assumes she walks at the same pace for the whole time

Step-by-step explanation:
why ? you did it right there already.
the numerator is the top part of the fraction, the "counting" part (how many units of a certain type or size are there).
the denominator (the bottom part) is defining the type or size of units described by the fraction.
so, we are adding 4 to the numerator of 2/5, making it (2+4)/5 = 6/5
what do we need to add to the denominator (the bottom part) to make the fraction have the value of 1/2 ?
so, what x would make 6/x = 1/2 ?
6 = x/2
x = 6×2 = 12
so, we need to get 12 in the denominator, where we have currently 5.
therefore, we need to add 12-5 = 7 to it.
so that
6/(5+7) = 6/12 = 1/2
