We are given the series of <span>a1 = -5 a2 = 20 a3 = -80. In this case, we can see that this is a geometric sequence with a geometric ratio equal to 20/-5 = -80/ 20 or equal to 4. Hence, r is equal to 4, a1 is equal to -5. 

The geometric sequence formula is an = a1*r^(n-1) = -5 * (-4)^ (n-1) where n is an integer. Answer is B.</span>

Tara has $2,000 in her savings account. David has one-tenths as much as Tara in his savings account. How much does David have in
Maru [420]

Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

You can take .1 times $2000 since 1-tenth is equal to .1

or you can 1 over ten times 2000 over 1 which makes 2000 over 10 and you divide 2000 by 10 to get $200

Start with the logistic equation dx dt kx(M−x). Suppose we modify our harvesting. That is we will only harvest an amount proport
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

a) dx/dt = kx*(M - h/k - x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The harvest differential Equation is:

                            dx/dt = kx*(M-x)

Suppose that we modify our harvesting. That is we will only harvest an amount proportional to current population.In  other  words  we  harvest hx per  unit  of  time  for  some h > 0

Find:

a) Construct the differential equation.  

b) Show that if kM > h, then the equation is still logistic.

c) What happens when kM < h?

Solution:

- The logistic equation with harvesting that is proportional to population is:

                               dx/dt = kx*(M-x) hx

It can be simplified to:

                              dx/dt = kx*(M - h/k - x)

- If kM > h, then we can introduce M_n=M -h/k >0, so that:

                              dx/dt = kx*(M_n  - x)  

Hence, This equation is logistic because M_n >0

- If kM < h,  then M_n <0. There are two critical points x= 0 and x = M_n < 0. Since, kx*(M_n  - x)  < 0 for all x<0 then the population will tend to zero for all initial conditions
