Hey there!

Pythagorean Theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

10^2+36^2=c^2

100+1296=c^2

1396=37.4.

Um... did you make a typo?

Let me know if you did, because then I can edit my answer.

Solve 5x - 3y = 9 for y.

LenKa [72]

5x - 3y = 9
5x = 9 + 3y
5x - 9 = 3y
( 5x - 9 ) / 3 = y
y = ( 5 / 3x ) - ( 9 / 3 ) ( I just split the common denominator to individual parts )
y = 5 / 3x - 3

A deer population is declining by 2.2% per year. The population can be modelled using the formula p = 240(0.978)n , where P is t

Answer:

The current deer population is 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression given models a exponential decay follows:

$p(n) = 240*(0.978)^n$

For every year that passes since the beginning of the count the population is 0.978 of the year prior. Assuming that the count starts at this year, then "n" is equal to 0, applying this value of n to the formula gives us:

$p(0) = 240*(0.978)^0\\p(0) = 240*1 = 240$
