The amount of trout y (in tons) caught in a lake from 1995 to 2014 can be modeled by the equation y = -0.08x2 + 1.6x + 10, where

x is the number of years since 1995. When were about 15 tons of trout caught in the lake? The year and the year .

For this case, the first thing we want to do is substitute the value of y = 15 in the equation.
 We have then:
 15 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x + 10
 Rewriting we have:
 0 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x + 10 - 15
 0 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x - 5
 The solutions are:
 x1 = 3.876275643042054
 x2 = 16.123724356957947
 Nearest whole number:
 x1 = 4
 x2 = 16
 were about 15 tons of trout caught in the lake in the years:
 1995 + 4 = 1999
 1995 + 16 = 2011
 Answer:
 The year 1999 and the year 2011

Solve for the variable 4/2 = 9/x<br> A x = 2/9 b x=4 C =4.5 D x= 18
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

\frac{4}{2}  =  \frac{9}{x}  \\

perform cross multiplication:

(4 \times x) = 9 \times 2 \\ 4x = 18 \\ → \: { \tt{x = 4.5}}

Bonus: In Triangle STP, the measure of &lt;T is twice the measure of &lt;S and the
olganol [36]

Answer:

m∠S=30°

m∠T=60°

m∠P=90°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the interior angles in a triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

In the triangle STP

m∠S+m∠T+m∠P=180° ----> equation A

m∠T=2(m∠S) ----> equation B

m∠P=3(m∠S) ----> equation C

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation B and equation C in equation A

m∠S+2(m∠S)+3(m∠S)=180°

Solve for m∠S

6m∠S=180°

m∠S=30°

<em>Find m∠T</em>

m∠T=2(m∠S)

m∠T=2(30°)=60°

<em>Find m∠P</em>

m∠P=3(m∠S)

m∠P=3(30°)=90°
