Jason enjoys watching the squirrels in his neighborhood park. They eat the red oak acorns. After the city removed 4 diseased red

oak trees, the population of squirrels decreased from 105 to 98 in one year. If the population continues to decline at the same rate, how many squirrels will live in the park in 15 years? First, calculate the rate of decay by subtracting the two populations and dividing the difference by the initial population. Then, use the formula A=a0ekt
a. 0 squirrels
b. 95 squirrels
c 81 squirrels
d 34 squirrels ​

4 0

Answer:

0 squirrels

Step-by-step explanation:

If you subtract 98 from 105 then you get 7. That means that 7 squirrels will be lost per year. If you then multiply 7 by 15 (15 is the amount of years) then you get 105 and since there were 105 to start off with, there will be no squirrels left after 15 years.

Only a very small (<5) percentage of measurements can be more than 2 standard deviations from the mean of the normal distribu
horsena [70]

Answer:

A. True

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rule in statistics states that:

  • 68% of the data will be within 1 standard deviation
  • 95% of the data will be within 2 standard deviations
  • 99.7% of the data will be within 3 standard deviations

So yes, we can state that 5% or less of the data will be more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean. Of course, statistics is not 100% certain, so this rule is not 100% right all the time. Some exceptions might result, but generally speaking, the results should follow the empirical rule.

Factor 8X squared + 10x + 2​
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

2(4x + 1)(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8x² + 10x + 2 ← factor out 2 from each term

= 2(4x² + 5x + 1)

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 4 × 1 = 4 and sum = + 5

The factors are + 1 and + 4

Use these factors to split the x - term

4x² + x + 4x + 1 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= x(4x + 1) + 1 (4x + 1) ← factor out (4x + 1)

= (4x + 1)(x + 1), thus

4x² + 5x + 1 = (4x + 1)(x + 1) and

8x² + 10x + 2 = 2(4x + 1)(x + 1) ← in factored form

Please help! Due tonight!
Kay [80]

Answer:

B. 6,8,10

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a right triangle the equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so just plug each number in to see.

6^2 + 8^2 = !0^2

36 + 64 = 100

100 = 100

Personally i knew almost immediately because 3,4,5 are the most common right triangles example and 6,8,10 are just a x2 of them so yea.
