Answer: width = 300
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Area (A) = Length (L) x width (w)
Given: A = 268,500
L = 3w - 5
w = w
268,500 = (3w - 5) x (w)
268,500 = 3w² - 5w
0 = 3w² - 5w - 268,500
0 = (3w + 895) (w - 300)
0 = 3w + 895 0 = w - 300
-985/3 = w 300 = w
Since width cannot be negative, disregard w = -985/3
So the only valid answer is: w = 300
Answer:
what year was his trip? I can figure it out I just need the year
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes. 95 is correct.
You have three congruent "indentations" in the right hand side. Thus each section must be 15/3 = 5 cm long.
The top rectangle will be 8*5 = 40 cm^2
The bottom rectangle will also be 8*5 = 40 cm^2
The middle area will be 5(8-5) = 5 * 3 = 15 cm^2
40 + 40 + 15 = 95
Answer:
In 1981, the Australian humpback whale population was 350
Po = Initial population = 350
rate of increase = 14% annually
P(t) = Po*(1.14)^t
P(t) = 350*(1.14)^t
Where
t = number of years that have passed since 1981
Year 2000
2000 - 1981 = 19 years
P(19) = 350*(1.14)^19
P(19) = 350*12.055
P(19) = 4219.49
P(19) ≈ 4219
Year 2018
2018 - 1981 = 37 years
P(37) = 350*(1.14)^37
P(37) = 350*127.4909
P(37) = 44621.84
P(37) ≈ 44622
There would be about 44622 humpback whales in the year 2018
