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

Answer:

P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can me modelled with an exponencial formula:

P = Po * (1+r)^t

Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the amount of time.

In this problem, we have that the inicial population/value is 27000, the rate is -8/9 (negative because the population decays), and the time t is in months, so as the rate is for every 4 months, we use the value (t/4) in the exponencial.

So, our function will be:

P(t) = 27000 * (1-8/9)^(t/4)

P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)

Write the standard equation of a circle with center (-3, 4) (-3, 4) and radius 1.​
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The answer is (x+3)^2+(y-4)^2=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2

In this equation, a and b are the coordinates of a center, and r is radius

Substituting given values, we obtain our answer.

What is the equation of the line shown in this graph?Enter your answer in the box.
Jobisdone [24]
Y=1 we can check this by looking at the slope of the line: m=
\frac{1  - 1}{2 + 4}
so m=0. By looking at the graph we know our y-int is 1. By plugging in this information into the equation of a line we get the following: y=0x+1. That is y=1
