Answer:
P(n)= p0 + 11(n)
Where p0= population of week 0
P(n) = population of n weeks
n= number of weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Population of beetles in Week 0= 6
Population of beetles in Week 7= 83
From week 0 to week 7 there are 8 weeks.
But subtracting population of week 0 from population of week 7 gives
= 83-6
= 77
After the subtraction, we have 7 weeks remaining.
Dividing the remaining population by the number of weeks remaining
=77/7
= 11
For n number of weeks, population p of beetles
P(n)= p0 + 11(n)
Where p0= population of week 0
P(n) = population of n weeks
n= number of weeks
I got -2(2x-3) but it should be C.-4x-2
3x + 2y = 12
subtract 3x from both sides
2y = -3x + 12
divide all terms by 2 so that you can have only the y on the left side
y = -3/2x + 6
And that is your answer!
Hope this helped!! :)
