Answer:
The y-intercept is at (0,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you loom at the vertical line in bold on the graph, you will see that the blue line is going through the y-axis.
Answer:
Part 1) The exponential function is equal to 
Part 2) The population in 2010 was 
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Write an exponential decay function that models this situation
we know that
In this problem we have a exponential function of the form
where
y ----> the fish population of Lake Collins since 2004
x ----> the time in years
a is the initial value
b is the base
we have
substitute
----> exponential function that represent this scenario
Part 2) Find the population in 2010
we have
so
For 
substitute
Given:
n = 27, sample size
df = n-1 = 26, degrees of freedom
xb = 11.8, sample mean
s = 2.3, sample standard deviation.
Because population statistics are not known, we should use the Student's t-distribution.
At 99% confidence interval, the t-value = 2.779 (from tables).
The confidence interval is
11.8 +/- 2.779*(2.3/√(27)) = 11.8 +/- 1.23 = (10.57, 13.03)
Answer: (10.6, 13.0) to the nearest tenth
Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation: 9 small squares with one teddy bear in each, 4 medium squares with 4 bears in each medium square, and 1 big square for the entire thing.
