Answer:

F(t) = 18000(0.6666)^{t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The fish population after t years can be modeled by the following equation:

F(t) = F(0)(1-r)^{t}

In which F(0) is the initial population and r is the constant rate of decay.

Year one the fish population was 18000

This means that F(0) = 18000

In year three the fish population was 8000 fish.

Two years later, so F(2) = 8000

F(t) = F(0)(1-r)^{t}

8000 = 18000(1-r)^{2}

(1-r)^{2} = 0.4444

\sqrt{(1-r)^{2}} = \sqrt{0.4444}

1 - r = 0.6666

r = 0.3334

So

F(t) = 18000(0.6666)^{t}

Drag the correct steps into order to solve the equation -7x + 14 = 56 for x.
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

-7x + 14 = 56

Subtract 14 both sides

-7x + 14 - 14 = 56 - 14

-7x = 42

Divide both sides by -7

(-7x)/(-7) = 42/(-7)

x = -6
