1] Given that the value of x has been modeled by f(x)=12500(0.87)^x, then:
the rate of change between years 1 and 5 will be:
rate of change is given by:
[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
thus:
f(1)=12500(0.87)^1=10875
f(5)=12500(0.87)^5=6230.3
rate of change will be:
(6230.3-10875)/(5-1)
=-1161.2
rate of change in years 11 to 15 will be:
f(11)=12500(0.87)^11=2701.6
f(15)=12500(0.87)^15=1,547.74
thus the rate of change will be:
(1547.74-2701.6)/(15-11)
=-288
dividing the two rates of change we get:
-288/-1161.2
-=1/4
comparing the two rate of change we conclude that:
The average rate of change between years 11 and 15 is about 1/4 the rate between years 1 and 5.
The answer is D]
2] Given that the population of beavers decreases exponentially at the rate of 7.5% per year, the monthly rate will be:
monthly rate=(n/12)
where n is the number of months
=7.5/12
=0.625
This is approximately equal to 0.65%. The correct answer is A. 0.65%
Answer:
red and green
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines are lines in a plane that are always the same distance apart. Parallel lines never intersect.
200+90+8+.02 is the correct answer
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
30 + 4x + 2 = 8 + 6x
Reorder the terms:
30 + 2 + 4x = 8 + 6x
Combine like terms: 30 + 2 = 32
32 + 4x = 8 + 6x
Solving
32 + 4x = 8 + 6x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
32 + 4x + -6x = 8 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 4x + -6x = -2x
32 + -2x = 8 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
32 + -2x = 8 + 0
32 + -2x = 8
Add '-32' to each side of the equation.
32 + -32 + -2x = 8 + -32
Combine like terms: 32 + -32 = 0
0 + -2x = 8 + -32
-2x = 8 + -32
Combine like terms: 8 + -32 = -24
-2x = -24
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 12
Simplifying
x = 12
