Scientists studied two animal populations. Function f(x) = 830(0.8)^x models a bear population in a given region x years after t

he study began. The table models the cougar population in the same region.
Year after study began: 0, 1, 2, 6, 15
Cougar population: 790, 735, 683, 511, 266
In the year the study began, how many more bears than cougars were in the given region.

Answer:

<h2>There were 40 more bears than cougars when the study started.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

  • f(x)=830(0.8)^{x}; where x refers to years after the study began, about bear population.
  • Table given is for cougar population.

So, the problem is asking how many more bears than cougars were in the given region. From the table, we know that there where 790 cougar when the study started.

Now, we have to calculate the initial condition of the function, because it's modelling bear population. Initial condition means when the study started, which is when x=0.

So, we have:

f(0)=830(0.8)^{0}=830(1)=830

So, there were 830 bears when the study started.

If we compare, we find that there were 40 more bears than cougars when the study started, because 830-790 = 40.

Find the length of each arc. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. NO LINKS!! Part 1​
Hatshy [7]
Answer:
5) 18.8 cm
7) 49.5 ft

Explanation:
The formula for arc length is S = θ * r

5) S = 18 cm * Pi/3 (60 degrees in radians)
S = 6 Pi cm
S ≈ 18.8 cm


7) S = 9 ft * 7 Pi / 4
S = 63 Pi ft / 4
S ≈ 49.5 ft

Can anyone help? It’s not 14, I’ll give Brainly + 15 pts
Julli [10]

Short side length = x

Medium side = x + 7

Long side = 5x

Total 49, so

x + x + 7 + 5x = 49

If you combine like terms:

7x + 7 = 49

Subtract 7 from both sides

7x = 42

Divide both sides by 7

x = 6 inches.
