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}

An isosceles trapezoid ABCD with height 2 units has all its vertices on the parabola y=a(x+1)(x−5). What is the value of a, if p
True [87]

Answer:

the value of a, if points A and D belong to the x−axis and m∠BAD=60 degrees is 2/√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Trapezoid ABCD with height 2 unit contain Points A and D which may be A(-1,0) and D(5.0)

Vertex of parabola is the point where parabola crosses its axis

Let suppose A and D are two points then draw altitude on them CE where C is on AD

As height of altitude has been given that is 2 then

total angle = 180 degrees

m∠BAD=60 degrees

m∠CEA =180 - 60 -90

             = 30

then the value for  AE = 2/√3.

y=a(x+1)(x−5).

where  2/√3 is right of -1 and 2 unit above x-axis

Evaluate the function f(x) at the given numbers (correct to six decimal places).
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The values of given function are shown in the below table.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=\frac{x^2-5x}{x^2-x-20}

Simplify the given function.

f(x)=\frac{x(x-5)}{x^2-5x+4x-20}

f(x)=\frac{x(x-5)}{x(x-5)+4(x-5)}

f(x)=\frac{x(x-5)}{(x+4)(x-5)}

Cancel out the common factor.

f(x)=\frac{x}{x+4}

Substitute x=5.5 in the above equation.

f(5.5)=\frac{5.5}{5.5+4}

f(5.5)=\frac{5.5}{9.5}

f(5.5)=0.57894736842

f(5.5)\approx 0.578947

Similarly find the value for all values of x.

The values of given function are shown in the below table.
