Answer:
- The function f(x) = 9,000(0.95)^x represents the situation.
- After 2 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 8,120 bees remaining.
- The range values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole number
Step-by-step explanation:
The "growth" rate is -5%, so the growth factor, the base in the exponential equation, is 1.00-5% =0.95.
Using x=2, we find the population in 2 years is expected to be about ...
f(2) = 9000·0.95^2 ≈ 8123 . . . . about 8120
Using x=4, we find the population in 4 years is expected to be about ...
f(4) = 9000·0.95^4 ≈ 7331 . . . . about 7330
Since population is whole numbers of bees, the range of the function is limited to whole numbers.
The domain of the function is numbers of years. Years can be divided into fractions as small as you want, so the domain is not limited to whole numbers.
The choices listed above are applicable to the situation described.
When writing equivalent expressions, there are often several possible orders in which to simplify them. However, they will all take you to the same result as long as you do not make a mistake when using the properties. In this example, you will distribute the outer exponent first using the Power of a Product Property.
Answer:
14. 70% of 20000 is 14000. 25% of 14000 is 3500. 3500 students applied.
15. The percentage of 4000 that 2600 equates to would be 65%.
16. 4% of 33000 is 1320.
16b. Double of 1320 is 2640.
17. 3% of 110 + 275 + 200 + 145 is 21.9. 97% of that is 711.1. Total is 730.
18. There are 1656 men working. Total of 1380 + 1656 is 3036. Two ways to solve this are:
Honestly I can't think of two. Sorry, my brain is completely fried today.
19. 760 in sales commissions to meet the wage amount.
20. The agency gets 21010. 30% of that is 6303. This is explained by owning a calculator or simple value elimination.
