Answer:

The higher you go in the good chain the lower the population.

Explanation:

In the food web, there are only a few sharks since in the food chain they are higher. Just 10% energy is retained in the tissues once the energy is moved from one trophic level to another, and the leftover power is emitted as metabolic energy.

If an animal is high up the energy ladder, the individual has less resources; thus, a few of the highest predators are present in an ecosystem.

Brandon has 32 stamps. He wants to display the stamps in rows, with the same number of stamps in each row. How many different wa
aniked [119]
Find all the factors of 32, as they come in pairs.
The pairs will give you how many rows you can have, as well as the number of stamps in each row.
1x32 would be 1 row, 32 stamps each
2x16 would be 2 rows, 16 stamps each.
4x8 would be 4 rows, 8 stamps each.
Once you reach the point that it flips around, you can count up all those ways as well.
8x4 is 8 rows with 4 stamps each
16x2 is 16 rows with 2 stamps each
32x1 is 32 rows with 1 stamp each
The total number of factor pairs is 6, meaning he can display the stamps in 6 different ways that follow his want of having the same number of stamps in each row.

You deposit $10,000 into a bank account at 2% annual interest. How long will it take for the $10,000 to compound to $30,000?
Rama09 [41]

Answer: <em>time = 55.48 years</em>

Explanation:

Given:

Principal amount = $10000

Interest rate = 2% p.a

Amount = $30000

We can evaluate the time taken using the following formula:

Amount=Principal(1+\frac{r}{100})^{t}

30000 = 10000\times(1+\frac{2}{100})^{t}

Solving the above equation, we get

1.02^{t} = 3

Now taking log on both sides, we get;

t\ log(1.02) = log(3)

<em>time = 55.48 years</em>

4. A yellow cab Taxi charges $5.00 flat rate in addition of $0.65 per mile. Jan has no more than $20 to spend on a ride.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

5+0.65x\le 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles Jan can drive in a taxi.

The cost of this ride consists of

  • $5.00 flat rate
  • $.065 per mile

So, per x miles Jan will pay $0.65x and the total cost of the ride will be

$5.00+$0.65x

Jan has no more than $20 to spend on a ride, then the total cost of his ride must be less or equal to $20. Mathematically, you can write this as

5+0.65x\le 20
