The given number sentence is simplified as 1 3/5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The given number sentence is 2-4/5 x 1/2

  • In order to solve this, the operations must be performed based on the BODMAS rule.
  • This means that, the operations should be performed in the order of Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.

Here, based on that above rule, the multiplication must be done in the first step and then subtraction should be done in the next step.

⇒ 2 - 4/5 × 1/2

⇒ 2 - 4/10

⇒ 2 - 2/5

Therefore, the given expression is reduced to 2- 2/5

cross multiply the denominator 5

⇒ (10-2) / 5

⇒ 8/5

Now, the expression is reduced to single term 8/5.

To further reduce the term, divide 8 by 5.

  • The quotient is 1.
  • The remainder is 3.
  • The divisor is 5.

The answer is written in the form of Quotient(Remainder/ divisor)

⇒ 1 3/5

Determine algebrically if f(x)=4x³-5x is odd or even function​
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Odd function

Step-by-step explanation:

So to see if a function is odd or even we need to plug in a negative x for x, so f(-x)=4(-x)^3-5(-x). This produces -4x^3+5x, which is the exact opposite of the original equation, so it is an odd function. If it were even, then the signs of the coefficients would be the same as the original function.

In 1981, the Australian humpback whale population was 350 and has increased at a rate of 14% each year since then.)
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

In 1981, the Australian humpback whale population was 350

Po = Initial population = 350

rate of increase = 14% annually

P(t) = Po*(1.14)^t

P(t) = 350*(1.14)^t

Where

t = number of years that have passed since 1981

Year 2000

2000 - 1981 = 19 years

P(19) = 350*(1.14)^19

P(19) = 350*12.055

P(19) = 4219.49

P(19) ≈ 4219

Year 2018

2018 - 1981 = 37 years

P(37) = 350*(1.14)^37

P(37) = 350*127.4909

P(37) = 44621.84

P(37) ≈ 44622

There would be about  44622  humpback whales in the year 2018
