Frogs – A species of frog’s population grows 24% every year. Suppose 100 frogs are released into a pond. (For some answers, you

should round to whole frogs.)
Construct an exponential model for this population.

How many frogs will there be in 5 years?

How many frogs will there be in 10 years?

About when will there be 1000 frogs? (Round to a whole year.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r)^ t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 100

r = 24% = 24/100 = 0.24,

The exponential model for this population becomes

A = 100(1 + 0.24)^t

A = 100(1.24)^t

1) When t = 5 years,

A = 100(1.24)^5

A = 293

2) When t = 10 years,

A = 100(1.24)^10

A = 859

3) When A =1000

1000 = 100(1.24)^t

1000/100 = (1.24)^t

10 = (1.24)^t

Taking log of both sides to base 10, it becomes

Log 10 = log 1.24^t

1 = t log 1.24

1 = 0.093t

t = 1/0.093

t = 11 years to the nearest whole year.

Answer:

293; 869; 11 years

Step-by-step explanation:

N: no. of frogs

t: no. of years

N = 100(1.24^t)

N = 100(1.24⁵)

= 293

N = 100(1.24¹⁰)

= 859

1000 = 100(1.24^t)

10 = 1.24^t

lg10 = t×lg1.24

t = 1/lg1.24

t = 10.7 = 11 years

The zeroes of the polynomial f(x) = x^2+x+3/4 are​
matrenka [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² + x + 3/4

in general, such a quadratic function is defined as

f(x) = a×x² + b×x + c

the solution for finding the values of x where a quadratic function value is 0 (there are as many solutions as the highest exponent of x, so 2 here in our case)

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = 1

c = 3/4

x = (-1 ± sqrt(1² - 4×1×3/4))/(2×1) =

= (-1 ± sqrt(1 - 3))/2 = (-1 ± sqrt(-2))/2 =

= (-1 ± sqrt(2)i)/2

x1 = (-1 + sqrt(2)i) / 2

x2 = (-1 - sqrt(2)i) / 2

remember, i = sqrt(-1)

f(x) has no 0 results for x = real numbers.

for the solution we need to use imaginary numbers.

Do the ratios 5:3 and 13:8 form a proportion?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

  No

Step-by-step explanation:

Each ratio is irreducible, and they are different. Hence they are not the same value, so cannot be a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios.

  5 : 3 = 40 : 24

  13 : 8 = 39 : 24 . . . . not the same as 40 : 24

_____

<em>Examples of proportions</em>

  5/3 = 40/24 . . . is a proportion

  13/8 = 39/24 . . . is a proportion
