In 1991, the moose population in a park was measured to be 1900. By 1997, the population was measured again to be 3600. If the p

opulation continues to change linearly: Find a formula for the moose population, P, in terms of t , the years since 1990. P = What does your model predict the moose population to be in 2007?

Answer:

Since this is a linear (non-exponential) population problem you can just use the standard y=mx+b form of an equation. Where m = (change in population/change in years)

The numbers you were provided state that over the course of 7 years (1998-1991) the population increased by 420 people (4130-3710). So, (420/7) = 60 = m. Assuming that the growth rate for 1990 is the same as 1991. then you would have a starting population of (3710-60) or 3650, that would be your "b" value since at t=0 P(t) = 3650. This yields a final equation of P(t) = 60t +3650. Check the answer at t=1 and you get the population during 1991: 3710.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer for BRAINLIEST!! <br> 2y to the power of 2−y−5=0
Blababa [14]
2² - y - 5 = 0 

Evaluate the power.

4 - y - 5 = 0

Calculate the sum or difference.

-1 - y = 0

Move constant to the right side and change its sign. 

-y = 1

Change the signs on both sides of the equation.

y = -1

Factor over the complex numbers, if possible: x² + 2xyi - y2<br><br> What is the answer?
yanalaym [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x +yi)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the given expression to the square of a binomial, we can determine the given expression to be a square.

  (a +b)² = a² +2ab +b²

Here, we have a=x and b=yi. Then the factorization is ...

  x² +2xyi +(yi)² = (x +yi)²
