Answer:
- The function f(x) = 9,000(0.95)^x represents the situation.
- After 2 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 8,120 bees remaining.
- The range values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole number
Step-by-step explanation:
The "growth" rate is -5%, so the growth factor, the base in the exponential equation, is 1.00-5% =0.95.
Using x=2, we find the population in 2 years is expected to be about ...
f(2) = 9000·0.95^2 ≈ 8123 . . . . about 8120
Using x=4, we find the population in 4 years is expected to be about ...
f(4) = 9000·0.95^4 ≈ 7331 . . . . about 7330
Since population is whole numbers of bees, the range of the function is limited to whole numbers.
The domain of the function is numbers of years. Years can be divided into fractions as small as you want, so the domain is not limited to whole numbers.
The choices listed above are applicable to the situation described.
Answer:
-4 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
factored
(x - 9)(x + 4) = 0
with this x*x - 5x - 36 = 0
so x = 9 or x = -4
It's an irrational number.
You can cross off terminating and repeating decimal so you're left with a rational or irrational number. A rational number is something that can be put into fraction form and/or have repeating or terminating decimals.
So our answer would be irrational.
we are given
The ez pay plan costs $0.15 per minute
so, cost is $0.15 per minutes
we have
x minutes on the ez pay plan
so, time for plan is x minutes
total bill = cost * time for plan
now, we can plug values
we get
total bill = $0.15x..............Answer
