The total number of fish bought was 320. And you know she bought two types of fish. The best way to solve this is guess and check. It would be the fastest. So she bought 7 times as many trigger-fish as parrot fish that means the number of trigger-fish bought was 7p. This means 320 = 7p +p. So all you do is take educated guesses for the number of parrot fish and check if it is right. So if she bought 50 parrot fish. 7(50) + 50 = 400. Close but a bit high. Lets keep guessing. 7(35) + 35 = 245. So now we know the answer is between 50 and 35. So lets try 40. 7(40) + 40 =320. That works so we know she bought 40 parrot fish and 280 trigger-fish.

Complete question:
The growth of a city is described by the population function p(t) = P0e^kt where P0 is the initial population of the city, t is the time in years, and k is a constant. If the population of the city atis 19,000 and the population of the city atis 23,000, which is the nearest approximation to the population of the city at
Answer:
27,800
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to obtain the initial population(P0) and constant value (k)
Population function : p(t) = P0e^kt
At t = 0, population = 19,000
19,000 = P0e^(k*0)
19,000 = P0 * e^0
19000 = P0 * 1
19000 = P0
Hence, initial population = 19,000
At t = 3; population = 23,000
23,000 = 19000e^(k*3)
23000 = 19000 * e^3k
e^3k = 23000/ 19000
e^3k = 1.2105263
Take the ln
3k = ln(1.2105263)
k = 0.1910552 / 3
k = 0.0636850
At t = 6
p(t) = P0e^kt
p(6) = 19000 * e^(0.0636850 * 6)
P(6) = 19000 * e^0.3821104
P(6) = 19000 * 1.4653739
P(6) = 27842.104

Answer:
Use the appropriate entry method for piecewise functions for the graphing calculator of interest.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Desmos, the entry looks like ...
f(x) = {x ≤ 2: -2x-1,-x+4}
_____
For a TI-84 calculator, the entry may look like ...
Y₁ = (-2X–1)(X≤2) + (-X+4)(X>2)
The symbols ≤ and > come from the TEST menu, which is the (2nd) shift of the MATH key.
Note that the function is the sum of the pieces, each piece multiplied by a test. For something like 0≤x<2, the multiplier would be a pair of tests:
... (0≤X)(X<2)
