The percent increase of the second year was 85.71%

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth formula is y=a(1+r)^x

where;

y=population after x years

a=original population

r=growth rate as a decimal

x=number of time interval that have passed

Let starting population be p

The first year increase in the population was 40% this means;

r=0.4 , x=1 and a=p thus the equation will be

y=p(1+0.4)^1 ⇒⇒y=1.4 p

In the second year the population of birds of an island became 7 times more than before which is 7p

7p= 7*1.4p= 9.8p

Increase will be;

9.8p-1.4p=8.4

% increase will be;

8.4/9.8 *100 =85.71%

Can you help me what I did wrong and help me solve this equation

Remark

The order is not quite correct.

-  7 + (-11 * 5 - - 7) ÷ - 6

The - - 7 becomes a plus


- 7  + (- 55 + 7) ÷ -6      

This is where the real problem is. -55 + 7 goes down. This gives - 48

- 7 + [( - 48) ÷ - 6]

You do  the division by - 6 before adding. Adding - 7 to the result of the division is your very last step. Think BedMas.

-7 + (8)

The 8 is the result of the division. -48/-6 = 8. the -7 and the 8 are added. You get 1.

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see a pattern of 1/2 as the week progresses. 1/2 of 80 is 40, 1/2 of 40 is 20, 1/2 of 20 is 10, so for the fourth week 1/2 of 10 is 5.

Solve the following integral.<br><br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cint4x%5Ccos%282-3x%29dx" id="TexFormula1" title="\int
bagirrra123 [75]

Hi there!

\boxed{-\frac{4x}{3}sin(2-3x) + \frac{4}{9}cos(2-3x) + C}

To find the indefinite integral, we must integrate by parts.

Let "u" be the expression most easily differentiated, and "dv" the remaining expression. Take the derivative of "u" and the integral of "dv":

u = 4x

du = 4

dv = cos(2 - 3x)

v = 1/3sin(2 - 3x)

Write into the format:

∫udv = uv - ∫vdu

Thus, utilize the solved for expressions above:

4x · (-1/3sin(2 - 3x)) -∫ 4(1/3sin(2 - 3x))dx

Simplify:

-4x/3 sin(2 - 3x) - ∫ 4/3sin(2 - 3x)dx

Integrate the integral:

∫4/3(sin(2 - 3x)dx

u = 2 - 3x

du = -3dx ⇒ -1/3du = dx

-1/3∫ 4/3(sin(2 - 3x)dx ⇒ -4/9cos(2 - 3x) + C

Combine:

-\frac{4x}{3}sin(2-3x) + \frac{4}{9}cos(2-3x) + C
