Answer:

<h3>x = 3 units</h3><h3></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

use Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

where a = h

b = 8/2 = 4

c = 5

plugin values into the formula:

h² + 4² = 5²

h² = 5² - 4²

x = √9

x = 3

What is the total amount and the amount of interest earned on $6,500 at 6% for 25 years?

Deffense [45]

Here's the equation for one year:
0.06(6500) + 6500
But because it is 25 years:
25(0.06(6500)) + 6500
1.5(6500) + 6500
We can make it simpler:
2.5(6500)
The total amount is $16350

For the system below identify the parameters as growth rates, carrying capacities, and measure of interactions between species.

babunello [35]

Answer:

2 and 3 are the the growth rates parameter for x and y respectively
16 and 20 are the carrying capacities for x and y respectively
2 and 7 measures the benefit to x and y of the interaction of the two species.

The species compete each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a population model for two species as we have here, the differential equations looks like this:

$\frac{dx}{dt}=a*x+b\frac{x^{2}}{N}+c*xy$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=d*x+e\frac{y^{2}}{M}+f*xy)$

Here:

a and d are the the growth rates parameter for x and y respectively

N and M are the carrying capacities for x and y respectively

c and f measures the benefit to x and y of the interaction of the two species.

So in our case we have:

$\frac{dx}{dt}=2*x+\frac{x^{2}}{16}+2*xy$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=3*x-\frac{x^{2}}{20}-7*xy$

Therefore:

2 and 3 are the the growth rates parameter for x and y respectively
16 and 20 are the carrying capacities for x and y respectively
2 and 7 measures the benefit to x and y of the interaction of the two species.

The term xy determine the if the species are cooperating of competing, so in this case have negative xy term in the second equation, it means the presence of either species decreases the rate of change of the other, so the species compete each other.

I hope it helps you!
