Using a geometric growth model to predict population growth, a population of 10 individuals at time zero with a finite growth ra

Grace [21]

Answer: Option E, in 12 years.

Explanation:

A geometric growth model is characterized by its finite growth rate, known as lambda. The size of the population after a unit of time has passed can be calculated using the last known size and lamba as:

$N_{t+1} = \lambda * N_t$

Starting from the initial value of population, the next one will be calculated multiplying by 1.4, and the next one multiplying again by 1.4, thus we can define a function that relates the time passed in year to the size of the population:

$N(t) = \lambda^{t} *N_0$

Substituting our values we get the function that defines the growth of our poupulation:

$N(t) = 1.4^{t} *10$

Then, we just have to clear the t that gives a population of 500:

$500 = 1.4^t*10, divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 10\\50 = 1.4^t, apply\ log_{1.4}(x)\ to\ both\ sides\\log_{1.4}(50)=t\\11.63=t$

Thus, at 12 years, the population will be greater than 500.

Groundwater helps to replenish our freshwater lakes and rivers. In two or more complete sentences, describe a source of contamin

Viefleur [7K]

The agriculture is one of the biggest contaminators of the groundwater. The contamination happens through the usage of chemicals in the agriculture for protection of the plants, or to encourage their growth. Part of those chemicals mange to wash through the soil and reach the groundwater. The majority of the groundwater is connected with the lakes and the rivers, thus the chemicals reach those waters as well. This makes these waters unusable for the humans because they are becoming toxic. The end result would be much less freshwater for usage, be it fro drinking, or for housework, as it can cause serious damage and even death if used, so a shortage of water would be inevitable.
