Mike has 10 and a half cookies (10.5). Mike wants to share these cookies with 5 friends. How many cookies does each friend get. The answer is 2.1 one (Or 2 and 1 crumb I guess lol). You place the decimal point where ever it was originally so you would place it after the 2 and before the one. It's been a while since I've done one of these problems so sorry if I'm a little rusty.
The population function of the Western Lowland Gorillas can either represent population growth or population decay
<h3>How to model the population</h3>
The question is incomplete, as the resources to model the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas are not given.
However, the following is a general guide to solve the question.
An exponential function is represented as:

Where:
- (a) represent the initial value i.e. the initial population of the Western Lowland Gorillas
- (r) represents the rate at which the population increases or decreases.
- (x) represents the number of years since 2022
- (y) represents the population in x years
Given that the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas decreases, then the rate of the function would be 1 -r (i.e. an exponential decay)
Take for instance:

By comparison.
a = 2000 and 1 - r = 0.98
The above function can be used to model the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas

Step-by-step explanation:
The area would be 9 times compared to the area of the original square. To test this, you can let the side of the original square be equal 1. By tripling this side, the side becomes three. Utilizing the area of a square formula, A= s^2, the area of the original square would be 1 after substituting 1 for s. Then, you do the same for the area of the tripled square. With the substitution, the area of the tripled square would be 9. This result displays the area of the tripled square being 9 times as large as the area of the original square. This pattern can be used for other measurements of the square such as:
let s = 2, Original Area= 2^2 = 4 Tripled Area= (2(3))^2 = 6^2= 36. 36/4 = 9
let s = 3, Original Area = 3^2 = 9 Tripled Area - (3(3))^2 = 9^2 =81. 81/9 = 9
let s = 4, Original Area = 4^2 = 16 Tripled Area - (4(3))^2 = 12^2 = 144. 144/16 = 9
let s = 5, Original Area = 5^2 = 25 Tripled Area - (5(3))^2 = 15^2 = 225. 225/25 = 9
let s = 6, Original Area = 6^2 = 36 Tripled Area - (6(3))^2 = 18^2 = 324. 324/36 = 9
let s = 7, Original Area = 7^2 = 49 Tripled Area - (7(3))^2 = 21^2 = 2,401. 2,401/49 = 9
You can continue to increase the length of the square and follow this pattern and it will be consistent.
