In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100. By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200. If the

population continues to change exponentially, find an equation for moose population, P, as a function of t, the years since 2013

Answer:

P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential model for the population in t years after 2013 is given by:

P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}

In which P(0) is the population in 2013 and r is the growth rate.

In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100

This means that P(0) = 5100

So

P(t) = 5100e^{rt}

By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200.

2018 is 2018-2013 = 5 years after 2013.

So this means that P(5) = 5200.

We use this to find r.

P(t) = 5100e^{rt}

5200 = 5100e^{5r}

e^{5r} = \frac{52}{51}

\ln{e^{5r}} = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}

5r = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}

r = \frac{\ln{\frac{52}{51}}}{5}

r = 0.0039

So the equation for the moose population is:

P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}

If we wanted to prove quadrilateral MNOP was a parallelogram, which method below would not work?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

4) Doing two distance formulas to show that adjacent sides are not the same length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has opposite sides equals and parallel. Example of a parallelogram are rhombus, rectangle, square etc.

We can prove that a quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram. If we find the slopes of all four sides and compare those of the opposite ends, same slopes would indicate the opposite sides are parallel, hence the quarilateral is a parallelogram. We can also find the distance of two opposing sides, and slopes of twp opposing sides to determine whether it is a parallelogram or not. The most difficult approach is that diagonals bisect each other at same point.

However, using only two distance formulas will not give us enough information to determine whether a side is parallel or not.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The perimeter is 109.8

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see here, the angles of the triangles are congruent so we can say that both triangles are congruent

When two triangles are congruent, the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

So we can get the scale factor here by looking at the sides facing each specific angle in both triangles

In the bigger triangle,

The side facing 34 degrees has a length of 30

In the smaller triangle,

The side facing 34 degree has a length of 27

So the scale factor to get the smaller from the bigger is 27/30 = 9/10 or 0.9

Likewise the side facing 51 degrees in the bigger is 40 while for the smaller, it is 36

So the ratio still stands at 36/40 = 9/10 or 0.9

In essence, the smaller triangle will have a perimeter that is 0.9 times that of the bigger

The perimeter of the bigger is simply the sum of the side lengths

We have this as;

(52 + 30 + 40) = 122

so that of the smaller would be;

122 * 0.9 = 109.8
