The population of rabbits on an island is growing exponentially. In the year 1990, the population of rabbits was 1200, and by 19

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

2023 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential model consists of the following expression:

$y = A \cdot r^{t}$

Where:

$A$ - Initial population.

$r$ - Increase rate.

$t$ - Time

$y$ - Current population.

The initial population and increase rate are, respectively:

$1200 = A \cdot r^{0}$

$A = 1200$

$1700 = 1200 \cdot r^{4}$

$r^{4} = \frac{1700}{1200}$

$r^{4} = \frac{17}{12}$

$r = \sqrt[4]{\frac{17}{12} }$

$r \approx 1.091$

The exponential model that predicts the population of rabbits is:

$y = 1200\cdot 1.091^{t}$

Lastly, the expected population for the year 1996 is:

$y = 1200\cdot 1.091^{6}$

$y\approx 2023.624\,rabbits$

the diagram below has a cake is divided at a cake sale, if all the slices are sold at a total of $2500 would be collected. how m

Anarel [89]

Answer:

I am pretty sure $750

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 10 slices of cake, you would have to divded the cost ($2,500) by 10 to find out the cost per slice (you would get $250). Since we are finding the cost of 3 slices, you would mulitply 250 by 3, then you get your answer

Alisiya [41]

Answer: They will charge same amount for 360 minutes of calls.

Step-by-step explanation:

A phone company offers two monthly plans plan A cost $9 Plus And additional 0.12 $ for each minute of calls. Plan B cost $27 plus an additional $0.07 for each minute of calls

For what amount of calling do the two plans cost the same?

Let the each minute of calls be 'x'.

So, for plan A would be

plan A cost $9 Plus And additional 0.12 $ for each minute of calls is expressed as

$y_1=9+0.12x$

Plan B cost $27 plus an additional $0.07 for each minute of calls is expressed as

$y_2=27+0.07x$

According to question, it becomes,

$y_1=y_2\\\\9+0.12x=27+0.07x\\\\0.12x-0.07x=27-9\\\\0.05x=18\\\\x=\dfrac{18}{0.05}\\\\x=360$

Hence, they will charge same amount for 360 minutes of calls.

5. If the number of employees is represented by x, which function represents the

Ganezh [65]

Consider the missing lines of question are "Due to the Enhanced Community Quarantine, Grand Royal Spa temporarily stopped its operation and to help the employees, the owner decided to split evenly its total revenue of 65,000.00".

Given:

Total revenue = 65000

Number of employees = x

To find:

The function which represents the amount each received.

Solution:

We know that,

$\text{Amount each received}=\dfrac{\text{Total revenue}}{\text{Number of employees}}$

Substitute the given values in the above formula.

$\text{Amount each received}=\dfrac{65000}{x}$

So, the function which represents the amount each received is

$f(x)=\dfrac{65000}{x}$

Therefore, the required function is $f(x)=\dfrac{65000}{x}$ .

Note: Given options are not correct and option C is incomplete.

The solution to the equation is p = 1/3 and q = undefined

<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>

The equation is given as:

p^2 - 2qp + 1/q = (p - 1/3)

The best way to solve the above equation is by the use of a graphing calculator i.e. graphically

However, it can be solved algebraically too (to some extent)

Recall that the equation is given as:

p^2 - 2qp + 1/q = (p - 1/3)

Split the equation

So, we have

p^2 - 2qp + 1/q = 0

p - 1/3 = 0

Solve for p in p - 1/3 = 0

p = 1/3

Substitute p = 1/3 in p^2 - 2qp + 1/q = 0

So, we have

(1/3)^2 - 2q(1/3) + 1/q = 0

This gives

1/9 - 2/3q + 1/q = 0

This gives

2/3q + 1/q = -1/9

Multiply though by q

So, we have

2/3q^2 + 1 = -1/9q

Multiply through by 9

6q^2 + 9 = -q

So, we have

6q^2 + q + 9 = 0

Using the graphing calculator, we have

q = undefined

Hence. the solution to the equation is p = 1/3 and q = undefined
