Answer:25,000(0.15)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is the answer because there are 25,000 gray wolf in the world and they are expected to grow by 15%. 15% is .15. So those two numbers multiplied, to the x exponent should give you the answer of how large the wolf population is expected to be.

Answer:
a) For a constant increment in x-variable, there is a constant increment in y-variable, for example, for x = 0 to x = 0.5 (increment = 0.5) y-variable goes from 60 to 62 (increment = 2); the same is valid for any couple of (x,y) values. This behaviour is characteristic of linear equations.
b) slope:
m = (increment in y-variable)/(increment in x-variable) = 2/0.5 = 4
y-intercept:
y1 = m*x1 + h
60 = 4*0 + h
60 = h
equation: y = 4x + 60
where y represents scores and x represents hours spent studying
c) The slope indicates that you need to study 1 hour to increase your score in 4 points
The y-intercept indicates that you will get at least a score of 60, even though you hadn't studied
You would substitute 0.8 in for y and to get the equation 4x+8(0.8)=40. Then, you would simplify and get 4x+6.4=40. Next you would isolate x by subtracting 6.4 from both sides and get the equation 4x=33.6 and then you would divide both sides by 4 to get x=8.4.
The answer is : x=8.4
