Hey

The Answer is -4x


Heres the Step by Step work


You add 14 to each side because it is negative, so

5x-14=-34

    +14|+14

and you will end up with

5x=-20

Divide 5 on each side, so

5x=-20

/5x | /5x


-20 / 5x =

x=-4

 or

-4x

A. Complete the chart based on the initial conditions:
Nata [24]

Answer:

a.

Month\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Pop(whole \ ant)\\month1 => x_1=80\times0.94^1=1128\\month2=>x_2=1200\times0.94^2=1060\\month3=>x_3=1200\times0.94^3=996\\month4=>x_4=1200\times0.94^4=936

b.

week Number\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Mass(g)\\week1 => x_1=80\times1.1^1=88g\\week2=>x_2=80\times1.1^2=96.8g\\week3=>x_3=80\times1.1^3=106.48g\\week4=>x_4=80\times1.1^4=117.128g

Step-by-step explanation:

a. From the information provided, we can deduce that the population death's follows a Geometric sequence in the form (a,ar,ar^2,ar^3...) where a-first \ term and r-common \ ratio

#Since the population is reducing, r can is obtained as r=1-r=0.94

#The n^t^h term is obtained using the formula x_n=ar^(^n^-^1^), given a=1200

The number of ants alive after every month (in first 4 months)

Month\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Pop(whole \ ant)\\month1 => x_1=80\times0.94^1=1128\\month2=>x_2=1200\times0.94^2=1060\\month3=>x_3=1200\times0.94^3=996\\month4=>x_4=1200\times0.94^4=936

The ant's alive after 4 months is obtained as the value of x_5

x_n=ar^(^n^-^1^)\\1-x_5=1-1200\times 0.94^4=936.89\\\approx 936

Hence, 936 ants are alive after 4 months.

b. As with the above question, the kitten population follows a geometric sequence: (a,ar,ar^2,ar^3...).

#Since it's a growing population , the common ration is the sum of 100% + the growth rate,

r=1.1 and a=80 and x_n=ar^(^n^-^1^)

The population after 4weeks will be:

week Number\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Mass(g)\\week1 => x_1=80\times1.1^1=88g\\week2=>x_2=80\times1.1^2=96.8g\\week3=>x_3=80\times1.1^3=106.48g\\week4=>x_4=80\times1.1^4=117.128g
