Nadia finds out her favorite horse family population is increasing at a constant rate. The horse family was at 24 in 2011 and is

currently at 32 in 2014. Find an equation in point slope form that models the population growth and predict the number of horses in 2020.

Answer:

The equation is p = (8/3) t + 24

In 2020, we will have about 48 horses.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3 years  the family increased by 32 - 24 = 8.

So the  constant of proportionality = 8/3.

The required equation is p = (8/3)tx + 24

where p = the population and t is the number of years after 2011.

So in 2020 we can predict that in 2020 the number of horses

=  (8/3) * 9 + 24

= 72/3 + 24

= 24 + 24

= 48.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

x^3+6x^2-17x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-2)*(x^2+8x-1)

=x(x^2+8x-1)-2(x^2+8x-1)

=x^3+8x^2-x-2x^2-16x+2

collect like terms

= x^3+6x^2-17x+2

Nataly [62]

Answer:

(3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot both of the points on a graph you get another straight line.

When you connect the dots you get 3,1 as the midpoint of the two segments :))

If you divide one of the roots of the equation 4x2+bx−27=0 by the other root, the quotient will be −3. Find b.
klio [65]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

  ±12   (two answers)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Suppose one root is <em>a</em>. Then the other root will be -3<em>a</em>. The product of the two roots is the ratio of the constant coefficient to the leading coefficient:

  (<em>a</em>)(-3<em>a</em>) = -27/4

  <em>a</em>² = -27/(4·(-3)) = 9/4

  <em>a</em> = ±√(9/4) = ±3/2

Then the other root is

  -3<em>a</em> = -3(±3/2) = ±9/2 . . . . . . the roots will have opposite signs

We know the opposite of the sum of these roots will be the ratio of the linear term coefficient to the leading coefficient: b/4, so ...

  -(a + (-3a)) = b/4

  2a = b/4

  b = 8a = 8·(±3/2)

  b = ±12

_____

<em>Check</em>

For b = 12, the equation factors as ...

  4x² +12x -27 = (2x -3)(2x +9) = 0

  It has roots -9/2 and +3/2, the ratio of which is -3.

For b = -12, the equation factors as ...

  4x² -12x -27 = (2x +3)(2x -9) = 0

  It has roots 9/2 and -3/2, the ratio of which is -3.
