Answer:
165 pumas
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the formula given:

where n = number of pumas after a specific number of years
a = initial number of pumas = 24
r = rate = 12% = 0.12
t = number of years = 17
We obtain the number of pumas after 17 years to be:

≅ 165 pumas
After 17 years, the number of pumas in the park was 165.
Answer: y-3=4(x+1) in point-slope form and y=4x+7 in slope intercept form
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the point-slope form by plugging the numbers into the following: y-y₁=m(x-x₁).
You will end up with y-(3)=(4)(x-(-1)) which when simplified equals y-3=4(x+1).
To find slope intercept form you know need to isolate y and simplify.
Adding 3 to both sides results in y=4(x+1)+3.
If you then distribute you get y=4x+4+3 which simplifies to y=4x+7.
For this problem,all we have to do is translate the word problem into algebraic equations. The equations are as follows:
L = √100 * x = 10x
W = 1/2*y - 3/2*x
Since A is equal to length times width
A = LW
If L is given, we can find the x. Therefore, we must set the equation where the dependent variable is y and the independent variable is x.
125 = LW
W = 125/L
1/2*y - 3/2*x = 125/10x
10x(1/2*y - 3/2*x) = 125
5xy - 15x² = 125
xy - 3x² = 25
y = (25+3x²)/x
<em>y = 25/x + 3x</em>
Answer:
(3, -3 8/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a slope calculation or a graph to find the slope of the line.
m = (y-y)/(x-x)
m = (-3- -5)/(7- -2)
m = 2/9
Then write the equation of the line. I used point-slope form. (You could use y=mx+b, slope-intercept form, but you'd have to first calculate b as well)
Point-slope form:
y -Y = m(x-X)
y - -3 = 2/9(x- 7)
y + 3 = 2/9(x - 7)
We know the x-coordinate of the point we're looking for is 3. Fill that in as well and calculate the y that goes with it.
y + 3 = 2/9(3-7)
y+3=2/9(-4)
y = -8/9 - 3
y = -3 8/9
In decimal form this is -3.8888repeating
see image.
The point at x=3 on the line between M(7,-3) and N(-2,-5) is (3, -3 8/9).
