The population Pa of insect A after t years is given by the equation
Pa = 1.3(1-0.038)^t
while the population Pb of insect B after t years is
Pb = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
We equate the above expressions to find the number of years t it will take the two populations to be equal:
Pa = Pb
1.3(1-0.038)^t = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
1.3(0.962)^t = 2.1(0.954)^t
These are the equations that can be used to determine how long it will be before the populations of the two species are equal.
We can now solve for t:
(0.962)^t / (0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
(0.962/0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
After taking the log of both sides of our equation, number of years t is
t = log (2.1/1.3) / log (0.962/0.954)
t = 57 years
Therefore, it will take 57 years for the population of insect A to equal the population of insect B.
Answer:
isoceles but not equilateral
Step-by-step explanation:
it has two sides that are the same length, but not all three sides are the same length
An equilateral triangle is therefore a special case of an isosceles triangle having not just two, but all three sides equal
Answer: Number 4: 0.07, 60%, 13/20, 2/3, 0.70, and then 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer. 655.4
Step-by-step explanation:
what did u get?
<span>
<span>1st</span></span><span> formula 2n + 3m = 280
</span><span><span>
</span><span>2nd</span></span><span> formula 2n + 5m = 320
</span><span><span>
</span><span>rearrange 1st</span> formula to equal n:</span>
<span><span>2n = -3m + 280
</span>
</span><span>n = -3/2
m + 140
</span><span><span>
</span><span>rearrange 2nd</span> formula to equal n:</span>
<span><span>2n = -5m + 320
</span>
</span><span>n = -5/2m + 160
</span><span><span>
so now you have
</span>-3/2m + 140 = -5/2m + 160 </span>
<span><span>Rearrange to become:
</span>
</span><span><span>-3/2m + 5/2m = 160 - 140
</span>
</span><span>m = 20
</span><span>
</span>
<span>Now place 20 into the very 1st</span><span><span> equation in place
of the letter m
</span>
</span><span><span>2n + 3(20) = 280
</span>
</span><span><span>2n + 60 = 280
</span>
</span><span><span>2n = 220
</span>
</span><span>n = 110
</span><span><span>
</span>so it costs $110 per night, $20 per meal</span>
