Answer:
The population will be 896 turtles 6 years later ⇒ B
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential increasing formula is y = a
, where
- r is the rate of increase in decimal
∵ There are 300 turtles
∴ a = 300
∵ The population of the turtles exponentially increases 20% each year
∴ r = 20%
→ Divide it by 100 to change it to decimal
∵ 20% = 20 ÷ 100 = 0.2
∴ r = 0.2
∵ The time is 6 years
∴ x = 6
→ Substitute these values in the exponential formula above
∵ y = 300
∴ y = 300
∴ y = 895.7952
→ Round it to the nearest whole number
∴ y = 896
∴ The population will be 896 turtles 6 years later
Answer:
y=2x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
When an equation is parallel to another, it shares the same slope.
Our original line is y=2x-8, and it is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)
This means that our slope is 2 because m represents the slope.
The slope of our parallel line will then also be 2.
<u>We can begin to plug that into point-slope form which is:</u>
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
This is where (x1, y1) is a point the line intersects, and m is the slope.
<u>Plugging in the slope, we'll have:</u>
y - y1 = 2(x - x1)
We also know it intersects the point (-4, -1）
We can plug this into our equation as well.
y - (-1) = m(x - (-4))
y+1=2(x+4)
<u>Now, we can simplify it into slope-intercept form:</u>
y+1=2(x+4)
Distribute
y+1=2x+8
Subtract 1 from both sides
y=2x+8-1
y=2x+7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The proportion that Alan solved was
x/200 = 8/25
His working as shown was
(8)(x) = (25) (200)
8x = 5000
He divided both sides of the equation by 8. It became
8x/8 = 5000/8
x = 625
The correct steps are
25x = 200 × 8 = 1600
Dividing both sides of the equation by 25, it becomes
x = 1600/25
x = 64
Alan's error were:
1) He got the wrong product when he multiplied 25 by 200.
2)He got the wrong quotient when he divided 5,000 by 8.
Answer:
8,500
Step-by-step explanation:
if a number has 4 or less, round lower.
if a number has 5 or more, round up.
