To find the slope of the line, choose any of the points in the table and set up this expression:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1, where y2 is the y coordinate of the second point you chose, y1 is the y coordinate of the first point you chose, x2 is the x coordinate of the second point you chose, and x1 is the x coordinate of the first point you chose.

So,
3 - (-6) / 2 - 2 = 9 / 0 for the first two points. The slope of the line is undefined because it is a vertical line.

If poaching reduces the population of an endangered animal by 6% and the criteria of population extinction is 20 with present population 1500 then it will take 3.62 years to reach to the mark of extinction.

Given Poaching reduces the population of endangered animals by 6% per year. The criteria of population extinction is 20. Present population being 1500.

Number of years taken by the population of endangered animals to reach to 20 mark can be calculated as under:

20=1500* $(1-0.06)^{n}$

20=1500* $0.94^{n}$

20/1500= $0.94^{n}$

0.133= $0.94^{n}$

take log both sides

log(0.133)=log $0.94^{n}$ -------1

log(0.133)=nlog (0.94)

put the values log values:

log(0.133)=-0.8761

log(0.94)=-0.0268

Taking 1

-0.8761=n*(-0.0268)

n=0.8761/0.0268

n=3.269

Hence to reach level of 20 the population takes 3.2 years.

For the function y = -10x find the matching y-value when x = 3

Alchen [17]

Answer:

y= -30

Step-by-step explanation:

THis is because you substitue 3 for X and then multiply -10 and 3 and a negative times a positive is a negative so -10 times 3 is -30

Which graph shows the solution to the system of linear inequalities?<br> y< 2x-5<br> y>-3x + 1

trapecia [35]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Plot the solution sets to both inequalities.

1. For the inequality $y$ First, plot the dotted line $y=2x+5$ (dotted because sign is without notion "or equal to"), then choose correct part by substitution coordinates of the origin.

$2\cdot 0-5=-5$

so the origin does not belong to the needed part. Shade the part, which does not include origin.

2. For the inequality $y>-3x+1.$ First, plot the dotted line $y=-3x+1$ (dotted because sign is without notion "or equal to"), then choose correct part by substitution coordinates of the origin.
