A scientist observes the population of two animals in the lake. The number of Animal A, A(t), is increasing over time. The numbe
r of Animal B, B(t), is decreasing over time. Drag each statement to show whether it is true, not true, or if it cannot be determined from the given information. The number of Animal A is increasing at a faster rate than the number of Animal B is decreasing.
There is always more of Animal A than Animal B in the lake at any point in time.
The total number of animals is always the same over time.
1. can't be determined cause no info given on the rate of which the population is growing. 2. can't be determined/not true because the initial population of a could be less than b. 3. can't be determined/not true because we don't have enough info to tell how fast they grow and decline.
The number of Animal A is increasing at a faster rate than the number of Animal B is decreasing ( cannot be determined )
There is always more of Animal A than Animal B in the lake at any point in time ( True )
The total number of animals is always the same over time ( false/not true)
Step-by-step explanation:
The animals in the lake are grouped as Animal A and animal B, from the question it is observed that Animal A continues to increases over a given time and Animal B continues decreasing over the same given time
The rate at which each Animal is either decreasing or increasing over the same time period of (t) was not given so statement one(1) cannot be determined due to lack of complete information.
there will always be more Animal A than Animal B as long as Animal keep increasing and Animal B keep decreasing over time.
the total number of animals in the lake cannot be the same overtime because there is a decrease and increase in number of the animals over time.
