Absolute value<span> describes the distance of a </span>number<span> on the </span>number<span> line from 0 without considering which direction from zero the </span>number<span> lies. The </span>absolute value of a number<span> is never negative. The </span>absolute value<span> of 5 is 5.</span>
Answer:
angle <B = 76
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of an exterior angle is equal to sum of two interior angles that is not adjacent to the exterior angle.
We can write the following equation with this information to find the value of angle <B
<B + 71 = 147 subtract 71 from both sides
<B = 76
1] Given that the value of x has been modeled by f(x)=12500(0.87)^x, then:
the rate of change between years 1 and 5 will be:
rate of change is given by:
[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
thus:
f(1)=12500(0.87)^1=10875
f(5)=12500(0.87)^5=6230.3
rate of change will be:
(6230.3-10875)/(5-1)
=-1161.2
rate of change in years 11 to 15 will be:
f(11)=12500(0.87)^11=2701.6
f(15)=12500(0.87)^15=1,547.74
thus the rate of change will be:
(1547.74-2701.6)/(15-11)
=-288
dividing the two rates of change we get:
-288/-1161.2
-=1/4
comparing the two rate of change we conclude that:
The average rate of change between years 11 and 15 is about 1/4 the rate between years 1 and 5.
The answer is D]
2] Given that the population of beavers decreases exponentially at the rate of 7.5% per year, the monthly rate will be:
monthly rate=(n/12)
where n is the number of months
=7.5/12
=0.625
This is approximately equal to 0.65%. The correct answer is A. 0.65%
