The population Pa of insect A after t years is given by the equation
Pa = 1.3(1-0.038)^t
while the population Pb of insect B after t years is
Pb = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
We equate the above expressions to find the number of years t it will take the two populations to be equal:
Pa = Pb
1.3(1-0.038)^t = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
1.3(0.962)^t = 2.1(0.954)^t
These are the equations that can be used to determine how long it will be before the populations of the two species are equal.
We can now solve for t:
(0.962)^t / (0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
(0.962/0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
After taking the log of both sides of our equation, number of years t is
t = log (2.1/1.3) / log (0.962/0.954)
t = 57 years
Therefore, it will take 57 years for the population of insect A to equal the population of insect B.
Answer:
The height of the water = 6.2 in. to the nearest tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The rate of flows of water into the tank = 8000 in.³/min.
∴ The volume of the water in the tank after 10 min. = 8000 × 10 = 80000 in.³
∵ The water take the shape of the tank
∴ The height of the water = volume of water ÷ Area of the base of the tank
∵ The tank is cylinder with diameter 128 in. and height 72 in.
∴ The area of the base of the tank = π(128/2)²
∴ The height of the water = 
∴ The height of the water = 6.2 in. to the nearest tenth

You have half of 6 so the percentage would be half of 100
You are given the information that he takes six lessons per week. First we will calculate the total lessons he could potentially take per year.
6 • 52 = 312
He could potentially take 312 lessons in one year.
Now that you know this information, you simply subtract the days he missed from that total.
312 - 5 = 307
Your final answer: Peter took 307 lessons during the year.
Answer: √58 cm or 7.62 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem is a²+b²=c². Since we are given the lengths of a and b, we can plug them into this formula to find the length of the hypotenuse.
7²+3²=c²
49+9=c²
58=c²
c=√58 or 7.62 cm
