6 0

Answer: x=-3 and y = 11

Step-by-step explanation: x+y = 8 and x-y = - 14

From first solve y = 8-x and now Insert y to later

x -(8-x) = -14. x -8+x-14. 2x = -6 and x=-3. Y = 8-x = 11

A student played a computer game 500 time and won 370 of these games.

OLEGan [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

The no. won before=370

Total games played=500

No.of games played after=x

Total games won=x(since no games were lost)

Total games won=370+x

Total games played=500+x

Total percentage of win=75%

therefore

370+x/500+x=75/100

37000+100x=37500+75x

100x-75x=37500-37000

25x=500

x=20

therefore total match played after 500 matches=20

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The turtle population's rate of growth will be 32 turtles per year after 2 years and 248 per year after 6 years.

Ten years after the conservation measures are implemented the population will be 3260 turtles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate of growth of the turtle population at any time <em>t</em> you need to find $N'(t)$

$\frac{d}{dt}N(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(2t^3+3t^2-4t+1000)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\\frac{d}{dt}(2t^3)+\frac{d}{dt}(3t^2)-\frac{d}{dt}(4t)+\frac{d}{dt}(1000)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(x^a\right)=a\cdot x^{a-1}\\\\N'(t)=6t^2+6t-4$
