Answer:

  • f = -2/5a +14
  • 12.4 ≈ 12 fish for 4 algae blooms

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2-point form of the equation for a line is useful when you are given two points to work with:

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

The independent variable (x) is apparently "algae blooms" and is to be represented by "a". The dependent variable (y) is "number of fish" and is to be represented by "f". So, we have ...

  f = (4 -10)/(25 -10)(a -10) +10

  f = -6/15(a -10) +10

  f = -2/5a +14 . . . an equation for the scenario

Four a=4, the fish population is predicted to be ...

  f = -2/5(4) +14 = 12.4

There will be about 12 fish when there are 4 algae blooms.

if there are 2040 seats in a section of a stadium, 20 seats in the first row, and 4 more seats in each row, how many rows are th
Lorico [155]


2040 = n/2(20+(n-1)4)

4080 = n(20+4n-4)

4080= 20n +4n^2 -4n

1020 = 4n + n^2

n^2 +4n -1020 =0

use common formula (can't write out so just look at answers. sorry)

which gives answers of n=-34 and n=30. since n can only be positive, n=30 so there are 30 rows. I liked that challenge
