At the start of the year, 15 chameleons were introduced into a zoo. The population of chameleons is expected to grow at a rate o

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

option-B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

At the start of the year, 15 chameleons were introduced into a zoo

so, $P_0=15$

The population of chameleons is expected to grow at a rate of 41.42% every year

so, r=0.4142

and x represents the number of years since the chameleons were introduced into the zoo

now, we can set equation to find total population

and we get

$P(x)=P_0(1+r)^x$

now, we can plug values

$P(x)=15(1+0.4142)^x$

$P(x)=15(1.4142)^x$

Average rate of change between 2 years and 4 years:

we can use formula

$A_1=\frac{P(4)-P(2)}{4-2}$

now, we can plug values

$A_1=\frac{15(1.4142)^{4}-15(1.4142)^{2}}{4-2}$

$A_1=14.99914$

Average rate of change between 4 years and 6 years:

we can use formula

$A_2=\frac{P(6)-P(4)}{6-4}$

now, we can plug values

$A_2=\frac{15(1.4142)^{6}-15(1.4142)^{4}}{6-4}$

$A_2=29.99770$

Average rate of change between 6 years and 8 years:

we can use formula

$A_3=\frac{P(8)-P(6)}{8-6}$

now, we can plug values

$A_3=\frac{15(1.4142)^{8}-15(1.4142)^{6}}{8-6}$

$A_3=59.99425$

now, we will check each options

option-A:

we can see that

$A_3-A_2=30$

So, this is FALSE

option-B:

$A_1=\frac{1}{2}A_2$

So, this is TRUE

option-C:

This is FALSE

option-D:

we got

$A_1=\frac{1}{2}A_2$

so, this is FALSE

Outline the steps for taking cross sections of a rectangular prism.

fgiga [73]

Answer:

find a suitable cutting tool
cut the prism on the plane of interest

Step-by-step explanation:

A cross section is the intersection of a cut plane with the object of interest. In a classroom setting, we often try to do the cross sectioning mentally or with diagrams, rather than physically cutting anything. Sometimes, there is no substitute for actually performing the cut to see what the cross section looks like.

For certain samples that don't take kindly to cutting, we sometimes encase them in a block of material that helps them hold their shape during the process. Sometimes the "cutting" is performed by grinding away the portion of the material on one side of the cut plane.

What is an equation for the line parallel to y = −x + 2 going through the point (−3, −5)?

Umnica [9.8K]

The equation for the line parallel to y = −x + 2 going through the point (−3, −5) is y = -x - 8

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

The equation of a line in point slope form is expressed as:

y - y1 = m(x-x1)

Given the equation y = -x + 2, the slope of the line parallel to the line is -1

Substitute the slope and point (-3, -5)

y -(-5) = -1(x - (-3))

y+5 = -(x + 3)

y+5 =-x - 3

y = -x - 3 - 5

y = -x - 8

Hence the equation for the line parallel to y = −x + 2 going through the point (−3, −5) is y = -x - 8
