The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have m = -2 and the points (0, d) and (-8, 9). Substitute:

$\dfrac{9-d}{-8-0}=-2\\\\\dfrac{9-d}{-8}=-2\qquad\text{multiply both sides by (-8)}\\\\9-d=16\qquad\text{subtract 9 from both sides}\\\\-d=7\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{d=-7}$

For the following system, determine if a steady state exists and give the steady state value. The population of a colony of squi

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Option A)

$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to\infty}~p(t) = k$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following on the question:

$p(t) =\displaystyle\frac{4000}{4+e^{-0.02t}}$

where p(t) is the population of a colony.

For steady state solution we evaluate:

$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to\infty}~p(t)\\\\= \lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{4000}{4+e^{-0.02t}}\\\\=\frac{4000}{4+e^{-\infty}}\\\\=\frac{4000}{4}\\\\= 1000$

Thus, the steady state solution is a constant, k = 1000.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option A)

$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to\infty}~p(t) = k$

How to solve and simplify to the smallest fraction

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

When you multiply fractions you just multiply across. 7*6 = 42 and 8*9 = 72. The both of these numbers can be divided by six so 42/6 = 7 as the numerator. 72/6 = 12 for the denominator. 7/12 is the answer.

What is the quadratic regression equation?

aniked [119]

Answer:

y=-0.078x^2+8.407x+-92.892

Step-by-step explanation:

but your x and y in desmo than go under the table do y1=ax^2 then under the 2 put a 1 than +bx1+c than you round your a b and c to the nearest thousandth than after that add a b and c then after you get your answer than but x^2 behind a than x behind b then nothing behind c hope this works for you

Describe does Glide Reflection from the preimage triangle and black to the image triangle in red

AveGali [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets look at V which is at (2,-4).

We will also look at it's image V' which is at (-2,-1).

Let's go through the choices:

a. translation left 4 units and down 1 unit reflection x axis

Translating V left 4 and down 1 would give us (2-4,-4-1)

(-2,-5)

Reflecting that across the x-axis would give us

(-2,5).

So this is not (-2,-1) so let's move on...

b. translation left 2 units and up 2 units reflection line x=1

Translating V left 2 and up 2 gives us

(2-2,-4+2)

(0,-2)

Now reflecting this over x=1 gives us

(2,-2). ( Imagine this x=1 which is verical going right smack between points (0,-2) and (2,-2).)

We still did not reach our goal image.

c. translation left 2 units up and up 3 units reflection y axis

Starting at V(2,-4) and moving left 2 & up 3 gives (2-2,-4+3)=(0,-1).

Now reflecting this over the vertical axis, the y-axis, gives us (0,-1).

So we did not reach our (-2,-1) point yet.

d. translation left 2 units and 3 units reflection line x=-1.

Starting at (2,-4) then moving left 2 and up 3 gives us (2-2,-4+3)=(0,-1).

Now we are reflecting over x=-1 which means we want to choose a point on the side making x=-1 the middle. Thuis point on the other side of (0,-1) of x=-1 would be (-2,-1) which is the goal.
