Answer:

The number of fringes at d=-2 is given as 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question

A Galapagos cactus finch population increases by half every decade. The number of finches is modeled by the expression

,

where d is the number of decades after the population was measured. Evaluate the expression for d = −2

Given :

The number of  finches is modeled by the expression  :

⇒ 45\cdot1.5^d

where d is the number of decades after the population was measured.

To evaluate the expression for d=-2

Solution:

In order to evaluate the given expression to find the number of finches at d=-2, we will plugin -2 for d in the expression and simplify it.

Plugging in d=-2 in the expression:

⇒ 45\cdot 1.5^{-2}

Using negative exponent property. [a^{-x}=\frac{1}{a^x}

⇒ 45\cdot \frac{1}{1.5^2}

⇒ 45\cdot \frac{1}{2.25}

⇒ 20   (Answer)

Thus, the number of fringes at d=-2 is given as 20.

This means the number of fringes two decades ago was 20.

<h3>Dubai located +4 zone, takes off at 13.00,</h3>

∴Hence, at standard it is 13.00-4 =99.00 STD talk

off reached at Manila +8 Zone at 20.00

∴Hence at standard & 2000 -8

reached.⇒ 12.00 STD

  • Hence time of flight was = 3 hours.

(i) Time at Manila, whicle Plane de parts

12-3+8 ⇒9+8 → 17.00

(ii) duration = 3 hours.

(iii) in dubai 13.00 + 3 = 16,00

What is this called, like whats the name of this thing??<br> {18 ≤ y ≤ 30}
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

An inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

This gives the range of values that y can take.

It can equal 18 or be greater than eighteen but it also could be 30 or less than thirty.

WE read the signs starting from y to the left  and to the right.

So y is greater or equal to 18 and less than or equal to 30.

Eric has 5 CDs that he is going to give away. He lets his best friend choose 3 of the 5 CDs. How many different groups of 3 CDs
Snowcat [4.5K]
Given a group of n object. We want to make a selection of k objects out of the n object. This can be done in 

C(n, k) many ways, where C(n, k)= \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!},

where k!=1*2*3*...(k-1)*k


Thus, we can do the selection of 3 cd's out of 5, in C(5,3) many ways, 

where 

C(5, 3)= \frac{5!}{3!2!}= \frac{5*4*3*2*1}{3*2*1*2*1}= \frac{5*4}{2}=10
