Answer: 1,599,960

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population of crawfish in a section of the Louisiana bayou increased from 900,000 to 1.2 million between 2010 and 2011. The percentage increase in population will be:

= (1.2 million - 900000) / 900000 × 100

= 300000/900000 × 100

= 33.33%

Since the population increases by the same percentage between 2011 and 2012, then the population in 2012 will be:

= (100% + 33.33%) × 1.2 million

= 133.33% × 1.2 million

= 1.3333 × 1.2 million

= 1,599,960

The population in 2012 is 1,599,960

Which option is an even function?
Grace [21]

The correct answer is option D. Which is the even function is f (x) = x⁴.

<h3>What is an even function?</h3>

The function in which when the sign of the input variable is changed the output remains the same is called the even function. Mathematically we can write it as f(x) = f(-x ).

let us check the given four options:-

A f(x) = √x ;  f(-x) = √-x  here f(x) ≠ f(-x)

B f(x) = x ;  f(-x) = -x    here f(x) ≠ f(-x)

C f(x)  = x³ + 1 ; f(-x) = -x³ + 1  here f(x) ≠ f(-x)

D f(x)  = x⁴  ;  f(-x) = (-x)⁴ = x⁴  here f(x) = f(-x)

We can see that in the option D the f(x) = x⁴ is an even function because f(x) = f(-x).

Therefore the correct answer is option D. Which is the even function is f (x) = x⁴.

A town has a population of 20000 and grows at 4% every year. What will be the population after 6 years, to the nearest whole num
zaharov [31]

Answer:

25306

Step-by-step explanation:

a=starting value = 20000

r=\text{rate = }4\% = 0.04

r=rate = 4%=0.04

\text{Exponential Growth:}

Exponential Growth:

b=1+r=1+0.04=1.04

b=1+r=1+0.04=1.04

\text{Write Exponential Function:}

Write Exponential Function:

y=20000(1.04)^x

y=20000(1.04)  

x

 

Put it all together

\text{Plug in time for x:}

Plug in time for x:

y=20000(1.04)^{6}

y=20000(1.04)  

6

 

y= 25306.38037

y=25306.38037
