Answer:

62

Step-by-step explanation:

20% as a decimal is 0.2

For each year get the amount of increase by multiplying the number of rabbits by 0.2

Rabbits in 2013:

25 x 0.2 = 5

25 + 5 = 30 rabbits

Rabbits in 2014:

30 x 0.2 = 6

30 + 6 = 36 rabbits

Rabbits in 2015:

36 x 0.2 = 7.2

36 + 7.2 = 43.2

Rabbits in 2016:

43.2 x 0.2 = 8.64

43.2 + 8.64 = 51.84

Rabbits in 2017:

51.84 x 0.2 = 10.368

51.84 + 10.368 = 62.208

= 62 rabbits

A parallelogram is shown below: Part A: What is the area of the parallelogram? Show your work. (5 points) Part B: How can you de
aksik [14]

Part A) The area of a parallelogram is base × height.

3 × 2/3 = 6/3 = 2

2 feet squared is the area of the whole parallelogram.

Part B) The diagonal of a parallelogram separates it into two congruent triangles.

The area of each triangle will be:

base × height × 1/2

3 × 2/3 × 1/2 = 6/6 = 1

1 foot squared is the area for each triangle.

Leya [2.2K]
Assuming the pyramid is numbered 1 to 4 and there are 3 colors on the spinner, the probability of landing on 3 and blue is 1/12.

To find the combined probability, we just multiply the 2 individual probabilities.

P(3) = 1/4
P(blue) = 1/3

1/4 x 1/3 = 1/12

Given the function f(x)=-2x^2+4x-7, find f(-4)
jeka57 [31]
Let's begin by evaluating f(x) using the value of 3:    f(x) = 2x2 - 4x - 4 (original function)    f(3) = 2(3)2 - 4(3) - 4 (plugging in 3 for x)    f(3) = 2 (computed result) Now let's evaluate g(x) using the value of 3:    g(x) = 4x - 7 (original function)    g(x) = 4(3) - 7 (plugging in 3 for x)    g(x) = 5 (computed result) Finally, we'll sum our results:    (f + g)(3) = 2 + 3 (add f(3) and g(3))    <span>(f + g)(3) = 5 (final answer)</span>
