Two researchers are studying the decline of orangutan populations. In one study, a population of 784 orangutans is expected to d

ecrease at a rate of 25 orangutans per year. In a second study, the population of a group of 817 orangutans is expected to decrease at a rate of 36 per year. After how many years will the two populations be the same?
The two populations will be the same after
years.

Answer:

3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y = number of orangutans, and let x = number of years.

For each study, the population, y, after x years is:

First study:

y = 784 - 25x

Second study:

y = 817 - 36x

We set the populations equal and solve for x, the number of years.

784 - 25x = 817 - 36x

Add 36x to both sides. Subtract 784 from both sides.

11x = 33

Divide both sides by 11.

x = 3

Find the measure of /_ MFZ
marshall27 [118]

Given:

MZ\cong PZ

m\angle MFZ=(x+9)^\circ

m\angle PFZ=(2x-1)^\circ

To find:

The measure of angle MFZ.

Solution:

In triangles MFZ and PFZ,

m\angle FMZ\cong \angle FPZ           (Right angle)

MZ\cong PZ           (Given)

FZ\cong FZ           (Common side)

\Delta MFZ\cong \Delta PFZ                  (HL congruent postulate)

\angle MFZ\cong \angle PFZ           (CPCTC)

m\angle MFZ=m\angle PFZ

x+9=2x-1

9+1=2x-x

10=x

The value of x is 10.

The measure of angle MFZ is:

m\angle MFZ=(x+9)^\circ

m\angle MFZ=(10+9)^\circ

m\angle MFZ=19^\circ

Therefore, the measure of angle MFZ is 19 degrees.
