Answer:

<em>36%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

"8 kg of mixed nuts containing 26% peanuts"

weight of peanuts: 26% * 8 kg = 0.26 * 8 kg = 2.08 kg

"5 kg ... that contain 52% peanuts"

weight of peanuts: 52% * 5 kg = 0.52 * 5 kg = 2.6 kg

Total weight of peanuts: 2.08 kg + 2.6 kg = 4.68 kg

Total weight of mixed nuts: 8 kg + 5 kg

percent of peanuts: (4.68 kg)/(13 kg) * 100% = 36%

P(t) = 250 * (3.04)^t/1.98,
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The concept which best describes the change of the population is the derivative of p(t)=250(3.04)^{\frac{t}{1.98}}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe that the function p(t)=250(3.04)^{\frac{t}{1.98}} describes the amount of rabbits at the time t (in years) but  no the rate of change of the population at a given instant. So you have to use the derivative of p(t) to obtain that rate of change at any instant. For example, if we derivate the function p(t)=250(3.04)^{\frac{t}{1.98}} we obtain:

p'(t)=250\cdot \log(\frac{1}{1.98})(3.04)^{\frac{t}{1.98}}

And if we want to find the rate of change at t=5 years we evaluate

p'(5)=250\cdot \log(\frac{1}{1.98})(3.04)^{\frac{5}{1.98}}=2326 rabbits/year

What is the value of (3/10)3
Elenna [48]

Answer:

\frac{9}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, one is asked to multiply a fraction by a whole number, first model the question.

\frac{3}{10}(3)

In a situation like this, one multiplies the whole number by the numerator (number) over the fraction.

\frac{3*3}{10}

Simplify,

\frac{9}{10}

A common error that people make is that they will multiply both the numerator and denominator by the whole number, this is the same as multiplying the answer by (1), thus it is incorrect.
