Let's assume

number of birds with 2 wings is x

number of birds with 4 wings is y

A nature museum has 2008 specimens of early birds

so,

x+y=2008

Total of wings of 2 wings bird =2x

Total of wings of 4 wings bird =4y

The specimens have a total of 4384 wings

so, we get

2x+4y=4384

we can divide both sides by 2

x+2y=2192

so, we get system of equations as

x+y=2008

x+2y=2192

we can solve for x and y

We can subtract both equations

2008-y+2y=2192

y=184

x=2008-184

x=1824

y=184,\:x=1824

so,

number of birds with 2 wings is 1824

number of birds with 4 wings is 184.............Answer

convert the following logarithmic equation to the equivalent exponential equation. Use the caret (^) to enter exponents. y=ln x
GarryVolchara [31]
1. To solve this problem, you need to remember that an exponential function has the following form:
 
 f(x)=a^x
 
 "a" is the base and "x" is the exponent.
 
 2. It is important to know that the logarithmic functions  and the exponential functionsare inverse. Then, you have:
 
 <span>y=ln x
</span> e^y=e^(lnx)
<span> e^y=x
 
 3. Therefore, the answer is:
</span> 
 x=
<span>e^y</span>

Use the percent bar model to find the missing percent
Ne4ueva [31]

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The missing percent on the bar model is equal to 12.5%.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

On the percent bar model, above the missing percentage, the fraction is given as 1/8.

Now, the given fraction 1/8 in the form of percentage can be written as,

1/8

= 1/8 × 100%

= 0.125 × 100%

= 12.5%

Hence, the missing percent on the bar model is equal to 12.5%.

Pls help, u dont have to explain that much​
Anettt [7]

Answer:

it will be equal to

12x {}^{3}

okay....

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cuboid = l × b × h

( where l = length, b = width , h = height )

so volume of given cuboid = ( 3x × 2x × 2x )

hence volume =

{12x}^{3}
