The bird population on an island is declining at a rate of 2.2% per year. If the population was 3500 in the year 2009, which is

the best prediction of the population in the year 2014? 3500 in 2009
3500 (.022) = 77
3500 - 77 = 3423
3423 in 2010
3423 (.022) = 75.31
3423 - 75.31 = 3347.69
3347.69 in 2011
3347.69 (.022) = 73.65
3347.69 - 73.65 = 3274.04
3274.04 in 2012
3274.04 (.022) = 72.03
3274.04 - 72.03 = 3202.01
3202.01 in 2013
3202.01 (.022) = 70.44
3202.01 - 70.44 = 3131.57
3131.57 in 2014

Given:
2009 : 3,500 population
decrease of 2.2% per year. 
100% - 2.2% = 97.8%

2014 - 2009 = 5 years

3,500 * (0.978)^5 = 3,500 * 0.89473 = 3131.57

The bird population in 2014 will be 3,131.57 or 3,132.

<span>y = -1/2x +2 1/2</span>
General equation;
y = mx + c

Calculating the slope;
Change in y/ (change in x) = gradient m

(2-1)/(1-3) = - 1/2

Replacing m gives;
y= -1/2x + c

Calculating the value of c
take point (1,2) above and replace y with 2 and x with 1
2=-1/2 *1 +c
c = 2 1/2
Equation then is 
y = -1/2x +2 1/2

An office opens at 9am and closes at 5.30pm with a lunch break of 30minutes. What is the ratio of lunch break to the total perio
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

1:17

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how long it it between 5.30pm and 9am. This is 8 hours 30 minutes or 510 minutes.

Now, arrange them in the ratio of Lunch Break to Total office time

30:510. This can be simplified to 1:17

Please check if the question is worded correctly, just in case. Because ratio questions are usually based on a part and the remaining parts of the same thing, and not part to whole.

Anyway. The answer given if for the question you have typed.

Hope this helps.

Can someone answer this please and please answer it correctly please show work I need it today
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of 8th graders that signed up = 30

9 dropped out. So the total number 8th graders on board the game

= 30 - 9 = 21

46 2/3 % of the club are 8th graders i.e 21

Let T be the total number of students in the club

46 2/3 % T = 21

(140/3)% T = 21

(140/300)T = 21

T = (21x300)/140 = 45

Therefore, there are 45 students on the club

Why does the equation y = 3x + 5 NOT represent a proportional relationship?
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form  or  

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

where

The given equation not represent a proportional relationship, because the line not pass through the origin

In a proportional relationship the value of b (y-intercept) is equal to zero
