Answer:
Explanation:
The table that shows the pattern for this question is:
Time (year) Population
0 40
1 62
2 96
3 149
4 231
A growing exponentially pattern may be modeled by a function of the form P(x) = P₀(r)ˣ.
Where P₀ represents the initial population (year = 0), r represents the multiplicative growing rate, and P(x0 represents the population at the year x.
Thus you must find both P₀ and r.
<u>1) P₀ </u>
Using the first term of the sequence (0, 40) you get:
P(0) = 40 = P₀ (r)⁰ = P₀ (1) = P₀
Then, P₀ = 40
<u> 2) r</u>
Take two consecutive terms of the sequence:
- P(1) / P(0) = 40r / 40 = 62/40
You can verify that, for any other two consecutive terms you get the same result: 96/62 ≈ 149/96 ≈ 231/149 ≈ 1.55
<u>3) Model</u>
Thus, your model is P(x) = 40(1.55)ˣ
<u> 4) Population of moose after 12 years</u>
- P(12) = 40 (1.55)¹² ≈ 7,692.019 ≈ 7,692, which is round to the nearest whole number.
The first step for absolute value equations is to isolate the expression contained within the absolute value bars:
3|2x+4|-1 = 11
3|2x+4| = 12
|2x+4| = 4
so |2x+4| is 4 units away from 0 on a number line, but we don't know in which direction -- negative or positive? you'll have two answers.
2x+4 = 4
AND
2x+4 = -4
solve both of those two step equations and you'll get
x = 0
AND
x = -4
so 0 and -4 are your solutions.
First, write it as an equation
2.50+3x=5.05
Next, subtract 2.50 from both sides
2.50-2.50+3x=5.05-2.50
3x=2.55
Divide 3 on both sides
3x/3=2.55/3
x=0.85

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Any linear equation can be written as y = mx + b
The point will determine b
The slope (m) is found by this formula for a perpendicular line
m1 * m2 = - 1
m1 = -1/m2
m1 = -1/(-2/3)
m1 = 3/2
So our equation looks like
y = 3/2 x + b
Now we use the point (4,-8)
-8 = 3/2 (4) + b
-8 = 3(2) + b
-8 = 6 + b
b = - 14
The answer is
y = 4/2 - 14
