Exponential growth/decay rule with general function is:<span>y=y(0)<span>e<span>kt</span></span></span>
with k is growth/decay constant rate.
(1) Deer population function
y(0) = 1253
k
= 3%
t
= 6 (years)
y(6) = 1253 . e^(0.03*6) ~ 1500 (deers)
: 1496 deers
(2) Growth factor b is rate 9.5% = 0.095
Here we apply the Pythagorean theorem:
c^2=a^2+b^2
The diagonal of the opening will be:
c^2=3^2+3^2
c^2=9+9
c^2=18
c=3√2 ft
The diagonal of the wood will be:
c^2=4^2+8^2
c^2=16+64
c^2=80
c=4√5 ft
The space will not be enough for the plywood to pass
If the original price tag of the video game is $128, to get its discounted price at 15%, that means what Leiff paid for was (100-15) = 85% of the original price.
So, the price of the video game then becomes
(0.85 x 128) = $108.80.
Since Leiff has to pay an additional 5.3% of the new price, that's (100 + 5.3) = 105.3% of the new price which is
(1.053 x 108.8) = $114.57
Adding the shipping fee for the videogame,
114.57 + 4.75 = $119.32
Thus, the total price is <span>$119.32</span>
