I don’t know but I’m here for it
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A 180 degree rotation around the origin would be the same things as a reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis.
This would result in the new location being (-3, -2) The x coordinate is -3.
The population function of the Western Lowland Gorillas can either represent population growth or population decay
<h3>How to model the population</h3>
The question is incomplete, as the resources to model the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas are not given.
However, the following is a general guide to solve the question.
An exponential function is represented as:

Where:
- (a) represent the initial value i.e. the initial population of the Western Lowland Gorillas
- (r) represents the rate at which the population increases or decreases.
- (x) represents the number of years since 2022
- (y) represents the population in x years
Given that the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas decreases, then the rate of the function would be 1 -r (i.e. an exponential decay)
Take for instance:

By comparison.
a = 2000 and 1 - r = 0.98
The above function can be used to model the population of the Western Lowland Gorillas

Answer:
The two solutions are 5 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the absolute has two solutions because IxI = a means x = a and x = -a
Let us solve the question using this fact
∵ I2x - 8I + 3 = 5
→ Subtract 3 from both sides
∴ I2x - 8I + 3 - 5 = 5 - 3
∴ I2x - 8I = 2
By using the fact above
→ 1st solution
∵ 2x - 8 = 2
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = 2 + 8
∴ 2x = 10
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∴ x = 5
→ 2nd solution
∵ 2x - 8 = -2
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = -2 + 8
∴ 2x = 6
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∴ x = 3
∴ The two solutions are 5 and 3
4+2x = x (x = student in smaller group)
4 + 2x + x = 28 (total # of students)
4+ 3x = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
8 students in the smaller group
4 + 2(8) = 20 students in the larger group
