Answer:
Orinal number of cats= 171
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Decrease in population= 30%
Current population= 120
<u>To calculate the original number of cats, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Orinal number of cats= current population / (1 - decrease)
Orinal number of cats= 120 / (1 - 0.3)
Orinal number of cats= 171
Answer: x>18.64
Step-by-step explanation:
x+6.56-6.56>25.2-6.56
x>18.64
I do not have answer for this question looking for help.
Hello! I can help you with this!
a. The function that would best represent Samantha's account is f(5) = 500(1 + 0.04)^5. This is because $500 is the principal, the interest rate is 4%, and we're looking for the amount in the savings account 5 years later.
b. Okay. 1 = 0.04 is 1.04. 1.04^5 is 1.216652902. It's a long decimal, but don't delete it. Multiply that decimal by 500 and you get 608.32645 and other numbers behind it or 608 when rounded to the nearest dollar. Samantha will have about $608 in her savings account in 5 years.
Note: The formula goes like this: f(x) = P(1 + r)^x. This means, you add 1 and the simple interest rate in decimal form together and raise that up by the exponent. There is no shortcuts for this, so you'll have to use the calculator. There will be a very long decimal, but don't clear it. Instead, multiply it by the principal to get the answer. It seems very complicating, but if you do this right, it gets easier overtime and you'll make less errors. There are more complex problems out there, so this formula is very important, but it was kept simple for this question.
Answer: x ≥ 0
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's define the symbols used:
a < x (this means that a is strictly smaller than x)
a > x (this means that a is strictly larger than x)
a ≤ x (this means that a is smaller than or equal to x)
a ≥ x (this means that a is larger than or equal to x)
Now we have the statement "x is no less than 0"
Then x can be equal to zero, or larger than zero, but never smaller than zero.
Looking at the symbols above, we know that we need to use:
x ≥ 0
(this is equivalent to the statement)
