Answer:

B. The equator is susceptible to extreme storms so the thermocline changes significantly throughout the year.

Explanation:

Storms occurs on that locations where there is high temperature and high temperature is only present at the equator due to direct sunlight. So we can say that maximum storms comes at and near the regions of equator. The oceans present near the equator have a warm layer known as thermocline from where water is evaporated and the intensity of storms are also increases.

In 1985 a biologist counted 750 pine trees in a 250 hectare forest. Using similar counting techniques, the biologist counted 1,2

Answer:

Suppose that we have a given function f(x)

The average rate of change of the function between two values x₁ and x₂ is given by:

$r = \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}$

a) We want to find the average (rate) of change on the size of population from 1985 to 1995.

We have that:

f(1985) = 750

f(1995) = 1500

Then we have:

$r = \frac{1500 - 750}{1995 - 1985} = 750/10 = 75$

This means that the population of trees increases, in average, at a rate of 75 trees per year.

b) What is the density of trees each year that they were counted?

This will be equal to the quotient between the number of trees and the area.

1985: number of trees = 750 pines

area = 250 ha

Then the density is:

D(1985) = (750 pines)/(250 ha) = 3 pines/ha

So 1985, there were 3 pines per hectare.

1990: number of trees = 1250 pines

area = 250 ha

Then the density is:

D(1990) = (1250 pines)/(250 ha) = 5 pines/ha

1995: number of trees = 1500 pines

area = 250 ha

The density is:

D(1995) = (1500 pines)/(250 ha) = 6 pines/ha

3) now we want to get the average change between 1985 and 1995 in the density, this will be:

$r = \frac{D(1995) - D(1885)}{1995 - 1985} = \frac{6 pines/ha - 3pines/ha}{10} = 0.3 pines/ha$

So, on average, each year the number of pines per hectare increases by 0.3
