I need help with letters (D) and (E). My model equation from letter (C) is: P = -55/4 t+ 340.

Answer:

(a) The two ordered pairs are (0 , 340) and (4 , 285)

(b) The slope is m = -55/4

The slope means the rate of decreases of the owl population was 55/4

per year (P decreased by 55/4 each year)

(c) The model equation is P = -55/4 t + 340

(d) The owl population in 2022 will be 216

(e)  At year 2038 will be no more owl in the park

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The owl population in 2013 was measured to be 340

- In 2017 the owl population was measured again to be 285

- The owl population is P and the time is t where t measure the numbers

 of years since 2013

(a) Let t represented by the x-coordinates of the order pairs and P

   represented by the y-coordinates of the order pairs

∵ t is measured since 2013

∴ At 2013 ⇒ t = 0

∵ The population P in 2013 was 340

∴ The first order pair is (0 , 340)

∵ The time from 2013 to 2013 = 2017 - 2013 = 4 years

∴ At 2017 ⇒ t = 4

∵ The population at 2017 is 285

∴ The second order pair is (4 , 285)

* The two ordered pairs are (0 , 340) and (4 , 285)

(b) The slope of any lines whose endpoints are (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2)

     is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∵ (x1 , y1) is (0 , 340) and (x2 , y2) is (4 , 285)

∴ x1 = 0 , x2 = 4 and y1 = 340 , y2 = 285

∴ m = \frac{285-340}{4-0}=\frac{-55}{4}

* The slope is m = -55/4

∵ The slope is negative value

∴ The relation is decreasing

* The slope means the rate of decreases of the owl population was

  55/4 per year (<em>P decreased by 55/4 each year</em>)

(c) The linear equation form is y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is

    the value of y when x = 0

∵ The population is P and represented by y

∵ The time is t and represented by t

∴ P = mt + c , c is the initial amount of population

∵ m = -55/4

∵ The initial amount of the population is 340

∴ P = -55/4 t + 340

* The model equation is P = -55/4 t + 340

(d) Lets calculate the time from 2013 to 2022

∵ t = 2022 - 2013 = 9 years

∵ P = -55/4 t + 340

∴ P = -55/4 (9) + 340 = 216.25 ≅ 216

* The owl population in 2022 will be 216

(e) If the model is accurate , then the owl population be be zero after

    t years

∵ P = -55/4 t + 340

∵ P = 0

∴ 0 = -55/4 t + 340

- Add 55/4 t to both sides

∴ 55/4 t = 340

- Multiply both sides by 4

∴ 55 t = 1360

- Divide both sides by 55

∴ t = 24.7 ≅ 25 years

- To find the year add 25 years to 2013

∵ 2013 + 25 = 2038

* At year 2038 will be no more owl in the park

The quotient of 4 and the difference of an integer and 3 is the same as two-thirds. Find the integer.
quester [9]
To find the integer, you must cross multiply, group the same terms, then divide both side by 2:

Solution:
4/(x-3)= 2/3
12 = 2x-6
18=2x
x= 9

Solve for b.<br> r = (b-5)m
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

b=5m+r/m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for b.

r=(b−5)(m)

Step 1: Flip the equation.

bm−5m=r

Step 2: Add 5m to both sides.

bm−5m+5m=r+5m

bm=5m+r

Step 3: Divide both sides by m.

bm/m=5m+r/m

b=5m+r/m

Answer:

b=5m+r/m
