Answer:

The population is expected to be 5515 animals in 12 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by using a compounded interest formula with a negative interest rate, since the number of animals are decreasing. We have:

final population = initial population * (1 - r)^(t)

Where r is rate of decline and t is the time elapsed. Applying the data from the question we have:

final population = 6000*(1 - 0.007)^(12)

final population = 6000*(0.993)^12 = 5514.9582 animals

The population is expected to be 5515 animals in 12 years.

Name another ordered pair that is on the graph
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

(5,30)

Step-by-step explanation:

That is the constant change in the y's as the x's increase by 1?

12 - 6 = 6

18 - 12 = 6

24 - 18 = 6

The common difference is 6 so the next coordinate will be 6 more on the y and 1 more on the x.

A puppy and a kitten are 180 meters apart when they see each other. The puppy can run at a speed of 25 m/sec, while the kitten c
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: 36 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> distance the kitten runs before being caught by the puppy

Remember that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

v=d/t

solve for t

t=d/v

so

equate the time

x/20=(180+x)/25

25x=20(180+x)

25x=3,600+20x

25x-20x=3,600

x=3,600/5=720 m

t=d/v=720/20=36 sec

or

t=(720+180)/25=900/25=36 sec

What is the value of x? ​
Aliun [14]

The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol.
