A) P(t) = Po(1 - 0.06)^t
P(t) = Po(0.94)^t
where Po is the initial population of the fish and t is the time.

b.) Monthly rate of decrease = 6%/12 = 0.5%

She has found that 5 out of 7 seeds produce corn. She wants to have 10,000 corn bearing plants. How many seeds should see plant

Anton [14]

It would take 70,000 seeds if five out of seven are good. So over a quantity of 50,000 plants desired, you would sow 70,000 seeds. As 20,000 would statistically fail.

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

adiocarbon dating of blackened grains from the site of ancient Jericho provides a date of 1315 BC ± 13 years for the fall of the

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} \approx 0.659$ and $\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} \approx 0.661$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the isotope decay is:

$\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

14-Carbon has a half-life of 5568 years, the time constant of the isotope is:

$\tau = \frac{5568\,years}{\ln 2}$

$\tau \approx 8032.926\,years$

The decay time is:

$t = 1315\,years + 2007\,years \pm 13\,years$ (There is no a year 0 in chronology).

$t = 3335 \pm 13\,years$

Lastly, the relative amount is estimated by direct substitution:

$\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{\mp\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{-\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} \approx 0.659$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} \approx 0.661$
