Answer:
D) y = 1/4 x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
For these functions, the leading coefficient can be considered to be either ...
the vertical scale factor (larger ⇒ narrower)
the square of the inverse of the horizontal scale factor.
In the latter case, the horizontal scale factor will be larger (wider) when its inverse and the square of its inverse are smaller.
Either way, you're looking for the smallest leading coefficient: 1/4.
First of all we have to arrange the data in ascending order as shown below:
28, 40, 43, 43, 45, 50, 50
Total number of values = 7
Since the number of values is odd, the median will be the middle value i.e. 4th value which is 43. Median divides the data in two halves:
1st Half = 28, 40, 43
2nd Half = 45, 50, 50
Q1 or the First Quartile is the middle value of the lower or 1st half which is 40.
Q3 or the Third Quartile is the middle value of the upper or second half, which is 50.
IQR or the Inter Quartile Range is the difference of Q3 and Q1.
So, IQR= Q3 – Q1 = 50 – 40 = 10
Thus, IQR for the given data is 10
Answer: Approximately 25187 animals of this species will be left in 2025
Step-by-step explanation:
We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as
y = b(1 - r)^x
Where
y represents the population of animals after x years.
x represents the number of years.
b represents the initial population of animals.
r represents rate of decay.
From the information given,
b = 200000
r = 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045
x = 2025 - 1980 = 45 years
Therefore,
y = 200000(1 - 0.045)^45
y = 200000(0.955)^45
y = 25187
