Suppose that an insect population’s density, in thousands per acre, during year n, can be modeled by the recursive formula: a1 =

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The population alternates between increasing and decreasing

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The options of the question are</em></u>

A) The population density decreases each year.

B) The population density increases each year.

C) The population density remains constant.

D) The population alternates between increasing and decreasing

we have

$a_n=2.9(a_n_-_1)-0.2(a_n_-_1)^2$

$a_1=8$

Find the value of $a_2$

For n=2

$a_2=2.9(a_1)-0.2(a_1)^2$

$a_2=2.9(8)-0.2(8)^2=10.4$

Find the value of $a_3$

For n=3

$a_3=2.9(a_2)-0.2(a_2)^2$

$a_3=2.9(10.4)-0.2(10.4)^2=8.528$

For n=4

$a_4=2.9(a_3)-0.2(a_3)^2$

$a_4=2.9(8.528)-0.2(8.528)^2=10.1858$

For n=5

$a_5=2.9(a_4)-0.2(a_4)^2$

$a_5=2.9(10.1858)-0.2(10.1858)^2=8.7887$

therefore

The population alternates between increasing and decreasing

42=-2d+6 I need help

sineoko [7]

<span>42=-2d+6

Here, to find d, you need to separate it on one side.
First, subtract 6 from both sides.

42-6 = -2d + 6 - 6
36 = -2d

Now divide both sides by -2.

36/-2 = -2/-2d
-18 = d

The answer to this problem is -18, or d = -18.</span>
