Answer:
x=2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
But I am not sure if its positive or negative.
Answer:If you would like to know what will the approximate population be after 3 years, you can calculate this using the following steps:
an initial population ... 298 quail
an annual rate ... 8%
an exponential function to model the quail population:
f = 298(1+8%)^t = 298(1+8/100)^t
f ... quail population
t ... time (years)
t = 3 years
f = 298(1+8/100)^t = 298(1.08)^3 = 375.4 quail
375.4 quail after 3 years.
We need to subtract: the scientist needed 57,500 dollars, but already had 32,506, so we need to find what's left: 57,500 - 32,506 = 24,992 dollars
Your answer is A. Hope that helps! :)
Solving for y right?
2y = 3x + 4 - x
2y = 2x + 4
y = 2x + 4 over 2
y = 2 (x + 2) over 2
y = x + 2
y - 3 = 2x - 6 over 2
y - 3 = 2(x - 3) over 2
y - 3 = x - 3
y = x
x - y - 2 = 2(2x + 1)
-y - 2 = 2(2x + 1) - x
-y = 2(2x + 1) - x + 2
y = -2(2x + 1) + x - 2
