Answer:
Suppose we have a random number A.
The multiplicative inverse of A is a number X such that:
A*X = 1
When we work with real numbers, X = 1/A
Then:
A*(1/A) = A/A = 1
This means that (1/A) is the multiplicative inverse of A.
Where we need to have A ≠ 0, because we can not divide by 0.
Now we want to find the multiplicative inverse of the numbers:
2: Here the inverse is (1/2) = 0.5
1/5: Here the inverse is (1/(1/5)) = (5/1) = 5
-4: Herre the inverse is (1/(-4)) = -(1/4) = -0.25
The conversion is
x = magnitude × cos(angle)
y = magnitude × sin(angle)
or
(x, y) = 120.2(cos(119°), sin(119°)) ≈ (-58.27, 105.13)

Answer:
The expression that represents the number of deer in the forest is
y(x) = 50*(1.013)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the number of deer is "y" and the number of months is "x", then after the first month the number of deer is:
y(1) = 50*(1+ 0.15/12) = 50*(1.0125) = 50.625
y(2) = y(1)*(1.0125) = y(0)*(1.0125)² =51.258
y(3) = y(2)*(1.0125) = y(0)*(1.0125)³ = 51.898
This keeps going as the time goes on, so we can model this growth with the equation:
y(x) = 50*(1 - 0.15/12)^(x)
y(x) = 50*(1.013)^x
