Let x = number of years between 1990 and 2000.
Rainbow smelt:
Initial population = 227
Average yearly rate of change = -19.76
The linear function that models the population is
y₁ = 227 - 19.76x
Bloater fish
Initial population = 1052
Average yearly rate of change = -92.57
The linear function that models the population is
y₂ = 1052 - 92.57x
When the two populations are equal, then y₁ = y₂.
That is
227 - 19.76x = 1052 - 92.57x
(92.57 - 19.76)x = 1052 - 227
72.81x = 825
x = 11.33 years
= 11 years, 0.33*12 months
= 11 years, 4 months
Add x to 1990 to obtain the year April 2011.
Answer:
x = 11.33 years.
This occurs in April 2001.
Answer:
Covered: $3712
Still need to pay: $928
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5 --> 0.8 --> 80%
4640 x 0.8 --> 3712
Covered: $3712 (which is 80%)
Still need to pay: $928 (which is 20%)
<1 and <2 are complementary : given
<1+<2=90 : definition of complementary
<1 congruent <3 : given
<2 congruent <4 : given
<3 congruent <4 : transitive property
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
difference means subtract.
The 24 is mentioned first so it is written first.
Then comes the minus sign
Then the number (x)
24 - x
