A biologist took a count of the number of fish in a particular lake, and recounted the lake’s population of fish on each of the

next six weeks.
Find a quadratic function that models the data as a function of x, the number of weeks. Use the model to estimate the number of fish at the lake on week 8.


P(x) = 13x^2 – 10x + 350; 917 fish
P(x) = 13x^2 – 10x + 350; 1,102 fish
P(x) = 18x^2 + 10x + 300; 1,252 fish
P(x) = 18x^2 + 10x + 300; 1,532 fish

The two equations for which the given number of fist is satisfied when x = 8 is plugged in are:
<span>P(x) = 13x^2 – 10x + 350
and
</span><span>P(x) = 18x^2 + 10x + 300

Now, we can only decide which is correct if we have additional information, specifically if we know the number of fish initially. If it is 350, option B is correct and if it is 300 then option D is correct.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 + 40x + 62 = 180 They are same side interior angles and add to 180

solve for x

40x + 60 = 180

40x = 120

x=3

What is the slope- intercept form equation of the line that passes through (5, 7) and (8, 22)
kap26 [50]
M = (22 - 7)/(8 - 5) = 15/3 = 5 
<span>using point (5, 7) </span>
<span>y - 7 = 5(x - 5) in point-slope form </span>
<span>y - 7 = 5x - 25 </span>
<span>y = 5x - 18 in slope-intercept form.</span>
