Answer:

Orinal number of cats=  171

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Decrease in population= 30%

Current population= 120

<u>To calculate the original number of cats, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Orinal number of cats= current population / (1 - decrease)

Orinal number of cats= 120 / (1 - 0.3)

Orinal number of cats=  171

What is the average rate of change of the function on the interval from x = 1 to x = 2?
neonofarm [45]

x=1 f = 10(5.5)(1) = 55

x=2, f = 10(5.5)(2) = 110
