A population of rabbits in a lab, p(x), can be modeled by the function p(x) = 20(1.014)x , where x represents the number of days

since the population was first counted. Explain what 20 and 1.014 represent in the context of the problem [2 points]. Determine, to the nearest tenth, the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100

Answer:

20 = initial population of the rabbits

1.014 = growth rate of the rabbits

the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100 is 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

A population of rabbits in a lab, p(x), can be modeled by the function

p(x) = 20(1.014)^x

This model is exponential. Where 20 = initial population of the rabbits

1.014 = growth rate of the rabbits with 1.4% increase rate of the rabbits

To find the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100,

find the population p(50) and p(100). Subtract them and divide by 100 - 50 = 50. 

p(50) = 20(1.014)50 = 40.08... 

p(100) = 20(1.014)100 = 80.32... 

(80.32 - 40.08) / (100 - 50) = 40.24/50 = 0.8048. which is approximately 0.8 to the nearest tenth. 

The rate of change is 0.8.

inessss [21]

Answer:

$10000 Total cost to transport 14 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost C(S) = $6500 + ($250/ton)S.  <em>This is a linear function with initial value $6500 and slope $250/ton.</em>

C(14) = $6500 + ($250/ton)(14) = <em>$10000 = Total cost to transport 14 tons</em>

Solve the equation for all values of x by completing the square.<br> x^2 + 4x = 32
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

x^2+4x-32=0

(mid-term breaking---4 x 8=32)

x^2+8x-4x-32=0

x(x+8)-4(x+8)

x+8=0 or x-4=0

So x=+4 or x=-8
