The population Pa of insect A after t years is given by the equation
Pa = 1.3(1-0.038)^t
while the population Pb of insect B after t years is
Pb = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
We equate the above expressions to find the number of years t it will take the two populations to be equal:
Pa = Pb
1.3(1-0.038)^t = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
1.3(0.962)^t = 2.1(0.954)^t
These are the equations that can be used to determine how long it will be before the populations of the two species are equal.
We can now solve for t:
(0.962)^t / (0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
(0.962/0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
After taking the log of both sides of our equation, number of years t is
t = log (2.1/1.3) / log (0.962/0.954)
t = 57 years
Therefore, it will take 57 years for the population of insect A to equal the population of insect B.
Answer:
399.17 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Gunnar's car gets 22.4 miles per gallon. His gas tank can hold 17.82 gallons of gas.
Gunnar's car travels with one gallon of gas = 22.4 miles
He can travel with 17.82 gallon of gas = 17.82 × 22.4
= 399.168 ≈ 399.17 miles
Gunnar can travel 399.17 miles if he uses all of the gas in the gas tank.
Answer: 4.90 im not 100 percent sure
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the actual discount, multiply the discount rate by the original amount 'x'. To find the sale price, subtract the actual discount from the original amount 'x' and equate this to given sale price.
To answer let e be the amount of Dexter's earning. From the given conditions, it is implied that this value should be equal or more than $50. Further, this amount should also be less than or equal to $100. Mathematically, this can be expressed as,
50 ≤ e ≤ 100
The answer is letter D.
Answer:
65
because 22 + 63 equals 85 and 20+65 equals 85 as well.
hope it helps :)
