Answer:

Minimum population of fish in lake = 2400 - 155 = 2245

Maximum population of fish in lake = 2400 + 155 = 2555

Step-by-step explanation:

population of fish in lake = 2400

Variation of fish = 155

it means that while current population of fish is 2400, the number can increase or decrease by maximum upto 155.

For example

for increase

population of fish can 2400 + 2, 2400 + 70, 2400 + 130 etc

but it cannot be beyond 2400 + 155.

It cannot be 2400 + 156

similarly for decrease

population of fish can 2400 - 3, 2400 - 95, 2400 - 144 etc

but it cannot be less that 2400 - 155.

It cannot be 2400 - 156

Hence population can fish in lake can be between 2400 - 155 and 2400 + 155

minimum population of fish in lake = 2400 - 155 = 2245

maximum population of fish in lake = 2400 + 155 = 2555

The table shows how the time it takes a train to travel between two cities depends on its average speed.
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

y=\frac{160}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows how the time it takes a train to travel between two cities depends on its average speed.

function models the time, y, in hours, that it takes the train to travel between the two cities at an average speed of x miles per hour

y represents the time

and x represents the average speed

WE know distance = speed * times

LEts find the distance using the table

distance = 32* 5= 160

40*4= 160

50*3.2 = 160

Time = distance / speed

times is y , distance is 160  and speed is x

y=\frac{160}{x}

HELP ITS MY LAST QUESTION WITH STEP BY STEP
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

71

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) First, add Andy's score and Janet's score in order to know how much they got in total:

  • Janet's score: 119 + 96 + 145 = 360
  • Andy's score: 127 + 74 + 88 = 289

2) In order to find how much more Janet scored, jus subtract Andy's score from Janet's score:

  • 360 - 289 = 71

Therefore, the answer is 71.

Hope this helps! :)

If one of the roots of the quadratice quation x2+kx-12=0is4,what is the value of k?
uysha [10]
<h3>Given Equation:</h3>

\huge \purple {\rm { {x}^{2}  + kx - 12 = 0}}

<h3>Value:</h3>

\huge \purple {\rm {x = 4}}

<h3>To Find:</h3>

\huge \purple {\rm {The \: value \: of \: k.}}

<h3>Solution:</h3>

\huge \purple {\rm { {(4)}^{2}  + k(4) - 12 = 0}}

\huge \purple {\rm {or, \: 16 + 4 k - 12 = 0}}

\huge \purple {\rm {or, \: 4k =  - 4}}

\huge \purple {\rm {or, \: k =  \frac{ - 4}{4}  =  - 1}}

<h2>Answer:</h2>
