Answer:

  12,765

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential formula for the population can be written as ...

  population = (initial population)(1 -decay rate)^t

where t is in years, and the decay rate is the loss per year.

The given numbers make this ...

  population = 100,000(0.9918^t)

In 250 years, the population will be about ...

  population = 100,000(0.9918^250) ≈ 12,765.15

There will be about 12,765 butterflies in 250 years.

If f (x) = 5 x minus 25 and g (x) = one-fifth x + 5, which expression could be used to verify g(x) is the inverse of f(x)?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The expression used to represent g(x) as inverse of f(x) is \frac{1}{5}(5x-25)+5

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f(x)= 5x-25\\g(x)=\frac{1}{5}x+5

We need to find the expression that could be used to verify g(x) is the inverse of f(x).

We know that g(f(x))=x is inverse of function

So placing value of f(x) in g(x)

g(f(x))=\frac{1}{5}(5x-25)+5

So, the expression used to represent g(x) as inverse of f(x) is \frac{1}{5}(5x-25)+5

Option B is correct.

We can also solve to prove that g(f(x))=x

g(f(x))=\frac{1}{5}(5x-25)+5\\g(f(x))=\frac{5}{5}(x-5)+5\\g(f(x))=x-5+5\\g(f(x))=x

Solve the system of equations.in this form: (x, y)<br><br> -5y + 8x = -18<br><br> 5y + 2x = 58
Gre4nikov [31]
If we add the equations it looks like
-5y + 8x + 5y + 2x = -18+58
so 10x=40
so x=40/10=4
now let's replace x by 4 in the second equation
5y +2*4=58
5y=58-2*4=58-8=50
so y=50/5=10
so (x, y) = (2, 10)

At Arnold's Arcade, a child can buy 21 tokens for $6. At this rate, how many tokens would $20 get someone?
nydimaria [60]

Based on the information given, the number of tokens that will be bought if a child has $20 will be 70.

Since a child can buy 21 tokens for $6, the cost of one token will be:

= $6 / 21 = $0.2857143

Therefore, if a child has $20, the number of tokens that will be gotten will be:

= $20 / $0.2857143

= 70

Therefore, 70 tokens will be bought.
