Answer:

The current deer population is 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression given models a exponential decay follows:

p(n) = 240*(0.978)^n

For every year that passes since the beginning of the count the population is 0.978 of the year prior. Assuming that the count starts at this year, then "n" is equal to 0, applying this value of n to the formula gives us:

p(0) = 240*(0.978)^0\\p(0) = 240*1 = 240

The current deer population is 240.

Use the Factor Theorem to determine whether x + 1 is a factor of P(x) = 2x³+4x²–2x−8.
Harman [31]

Answer: 2x^2+2x-4-\frac{4}{x+1}

Not a factor because there is a remainder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use synthetic division to solve this..

-1  ║ 2 | 4 | -2 | -8

   ║    | -2| -2 |  4

   ║ 2 | 2|  -4 |  -4

2x^2+2x-4-\frac{4}{x+1}

PS: if anyone knows a better way to do a synthetic division chart please let me know.

So, let’s evaluate the correct ones. 11 x 3 = 33. Now for the incorrect. 0.75 x 4 = 1.
33 + 1 = 34
So her score in total is 34 points. Hope this helped! :D
