Answer:

Population of fish in 2010 = 1,646 fish (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Population of fish in 2002 = 2100 fish

Decrease rate = 3% per year

Find:

Population of fish in 2010

Computation:

Number of year = 2010 - 2002

Number of year = 8 year

A = P[1+r]ⁿ

Population of fish in 2010 = Population of fish in 2002[1+(-3%)]ⁿ

Population of fish in 2010 = 2100[1-0.03]⁸

Population of fish in 2010 = 2100[0.97]⁸

Population of fish in 2010 = 2100[0.7837]

Population of fish in 2010 = 1645.77

Population of fish in 2010 = 1,646 fish (Approx.)

A relation is plotted as a linear function on the coordinate plane starting at point e (0, 27)(0, 27) and ending at point f (5,−
kolbaska11 [484]
The slope of the line is calculated using
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
Substituting the given values
-8 - 27 / 5 - 0 = -7
The rate of change or the slope is -7
And the initial value is the value of y when x is 0. From the first coordinates, the initial value is 27.

What is the sum of three consecutive odd integers is 75?
tankabanditka [31]
Odd integers are 2 apart
they are n, n+2, n+4

the sum is 75

n+n+2+n+4=75
3n+6=75
minus 6 both sides
3n=69
divide both sides by 3
n=23
n+2=25
n+4=27

the integers are 23,25,27
