If this occurred over a span of 35 years and the population doubles every 7 years, we can divide 35 by 7 to find how many times the population has doubled, which would be 5 times. If we divide 60,000 by 2 (or multiply by 1/2) 5 times, you would get the answer, which would be 1,875.

it is 5 periods - 7 years each, 5*7 =35 years

120000-->60000-->30000-->15000-->7500-->3750


Initial population was = 3750 squirrels

Shkiper50 [21]

1. A) 5 (It would be B. because it does equal 4.09 but it has to be 5 because it is the greatest integer in all of them)

2. D) 10 (Just like 1. it would be B. also BUT 10 is the greatest integer you can have out of all of them)

3. A) 6 (Just like the other 2 problems at the top^ it would be C. if not for the fact it has a higher number.)

4. A) A value we can put in place of a variable (such as x) that makes the equation true.

Answer:

The point at (-7, -5) = a

The point at (9, 3) = b

The point at (-3, 7) = c

The "a" point of the triangle is 12 units away from the center point.

So, 12 x 1/4

=> 12/4

=> 3

So, the "a" point of the dilated figure is  3 units left from the center.

=> So, the dilated "a" point is at (2, -5)

The "b" point is 8/4 (= rise/run = y-axis / x-axis) from the center point.

=> 8/4 = 2

So, the "b" point of the dilated figure is 1 unit right and 2 units up from the center point.

=> So, the dilated "b" point is at (6, -3)

The "c" point is 12/8 units away from the center point.

=> 12/8 x 1/4

=> 3/2

So, the "c" point of the dilated figure is 3 units up and 2 units left from the center point.

=> So, the dilated "c" point is at (3, -2)

a small table is 2 feet by 3 feet a large table is twice as long and rwice as wide as the small table. Whats the area of the lar
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The area of larger table is 24 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are the length and width of small table

l_s = 2\ ft\\w_s = 3\ ft

The area of a rectangular table is calculated by multiplying the length and width. It is also given that the length and width of the larger table is double the length and width of small table

So the length and width of larger table will be:

l_l = 2*2 = 4\ feet\\w_l = 3*2 = 6\ feet

The area of larger table will be:

A_l = l_l*w_l\\= 4 * 6\\=24\ ft^2

Hence,

The area of larger table is 24 square feet.
