1. can't be determined cause no info given on the rate of which the population is growing.
2. can't be determined/not true because the initial population of a could be less than b.
3. can't be determined/not true because we don't have enough info to tell how fast they grow and decline.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
x + 6 = 2(x + 3) - x
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add <em>x</em> on both sides: 2x + 6 = 2(x + 3)
- [Distributive Property] Distribute 2: 2x + 6 = 2x + 6
Here we see that both sides are identical.
∴ our solution is all real numbers.
Well, simply you can do on the calculator and get the answer.
The answer is: 275.0854413 :)
Have a wonderful day!
7-foot
EXPLANAT
Given:
14 foot tree
8foot shadow
4foot shadow
Let h be the height of a tee that casts a 4 foot long shadow.
Using proportion;
14 foot = 8 ft shadow
h = 4 ft shadow
Cross - multiply
8h = 56
Divide both-side by 8
h = 7 foot.
Hence, the tree is 7-foot.
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
Factoring <span> b2-4b+4</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>b2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -4b </span> its coefficient is <span> -4 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> +4 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> 1 • 4 = 4</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -4 </span>.
<span><span> </span></span>
<span><span>-4 + -1 = -5</span><span> -2 + -2 = -4 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -2 and -2
<span>b2 - 2b</span> - 2b - 4
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
b • (b-2)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (b-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(b-2) • (b-2)
Which is the desired factorization
