Answer:

a = 1

b = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's make equations out of those given f(x)'s

-4 = -3a + b

2 = 3a + b

We can use elimination method to get rid of the a real quick

-4 = b

2 = b

Add those together

-2 = 2b

Divide both sides by 2

-2/2 = 2b/2

b = -1

Plug in the new b in one of the original equations; I'm gonna use the bottom one

2 = 3a - 1

+ 1        + 1

3 = 3a

3/3 = 3a/3

a = 1

Answer:

\large \boxed{\textbf{30.54 yr}}

Step-by-step explanation:

For species A,

P =2000e^{0.05t}

For species B,

P =5000e^{0.02t}

When their populations are equal,

\begin{array}{rcl}2000e^{0.05t} & = & 5000e^{0.02t}\\e^{0.05t} & = & 2.5e^{0.02t}\\0.05t & = & \ln2.5 + 0.02t\\0.05t & = & 0.9163 + 0.02t\\0.03t & = & 0.9163\\t& = & \dfrac{0.9163}{0.03}\\\\& = & \mathbf{30.54}\\\end{array}\\\text{The populations of species A and B will be the same in $\large \boxed{\textbf{30.54 yr}}$}

The diagram below shows the population of Species A overtaking that of Species B in about 30.5 yr.

Solve the following word problem using any method. Show your work.
VLD [36.1K]
Let's set up two equations:
x+y=20             We know she brought total of 20, some of each so x=small y=big
20x+ 30y=450
 
 x+y= 20
   -y    -y
 ------------
 x= 20 -y

substitute into the other equation:    
20 (20-y) + 30y = 450
400 - 20y + 30y = 450
400+ 10 y = 450
10 y = 50
y= 5

So she brought  5 big cases.  Then substitute the value of y into one of the equations.

5+ x = 20 
x= 15

So we bought 15 small cases and 5 big cases. 

Hope this helps! Please give me the brainliest answer if you like it! If you have further questions, please leave a comment or add me as a friend!

1) Which of the following has a probability of 0?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

3. rolling a sum of 20 with two standard dice

Step-by-step explanation:

If something has a probability of 0 then there is no chance of it happening

A standard die goes up to 6. The max sum you can get by rolling two dice would be 12 as 6 + 6 = 12. So you have no chance of rolling a sum of 20 with two standard dice therefore the probability would be 0.
