Answer:

Using the formula:

P = P_0(1+r)^t                          .....[1]

where,

P is the population after t years

P_0 is the initial population

r is the rate (in decimal)

As per the statement:

A population of 80,000 toads is expected to shrink at a rate of 9.2% per year.

⇒Initial population(P_0) = 80,000 toad

and

r = -9.2% = -0.092

We have to find the toad population be in 20 years.

t = 20 years

Substitute the given values in [1], we have;

P = 8000 \cdot (1-0.092)^{20}

⇒P = 8000 \cdot (0.908)^{20} = 80000 \cdot 0.145116559

Simplify:

P = 11609.3247 \approx 11609

Therefore, about 11609 will be the toad population be in 20 years.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 6 inches. if one of the legs is 2 inches, find the degree measure of each angle
miskamm [114]
A and b are the 2 smaller sides, and c = hypotenus; only for right triangles,
Pythagorean Theorem states that:
{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}
given c = 6 in., a = 2 in.
{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  \\  {6}^{2}  =  {2}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  \\ {b}^{2} =  {6}^{2}  -  {2}^{2} = 36 - 4   \\ \sqrt{ {b}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{36 - 4}  =  \sqrt{32}
b =  \sqrt{32}   =  \sqrt{16}  \times  \sqrt{2}  = 4 \sqrt{2}  \\ b = 5.66 \: inches
So the three side are 2, 6, and 5.66 inches

Write the equation of the line in point slope form that passes through (-1, -2) and ( 1, 4).
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

y+2= 3(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find slope by using y2-y1/x2-x1

you should get 3 for your slope(m)

Them you chose any point iḿ using (-1, -2)

The formula for point slope form is...

y-y1=m(x-x1)

plug those numbers in and you get

y + 2 = 3(x + 1)
