Which two units you would use to measure population density?

melisa1 [442]

You are measuring people and animals, so this is for sure two of your units. For the next units, you need to choose something big enough to hold a large number of these, so you would use square meters and acres. The answer is the third option: <span>number of people per square meter and number of animals per acre</span>

Please help with 2 Math questions. I dont really understand

lisabon 2012 [21]

For the first problem, the answer is D, because every year, the graph goes down by about $4,500.
For problem two,
a. It's located in quadrant one because x and y are both positive (I've attached a graph with labeled quadrants for reference)
I'm unsure about b and c but I hope I helped with the others!

Select "Growth" or "Decay" to classify each function.

allochka39001 [22]

1. The growth rate equation has a general form of:

y = A (r)^t

The function is growth when r≥1, and it is a decay when r<1. Therefore:

y=200(0.5)^2t --> Decay

y=1/2(2.5)^t/6 --> Growth

y=(0.65)^t/4 --> Decay

2. We rewrite the given equation (1/3)^d−5 = 81

Take the log of both sides:

(d – 5) log(1/3) = log 81

d – 5 = log 81 / log(1/3)

d – 5 = - 4

Multiply both sides by negative 1:

- d + 5 = 4

So the answer is D

Please help with any of this Im stuck and having trouble with pre calc is it basic triogmetric identities using quotient and rec

german

How I was taught all of these problems is in terms of r, x, and y. Where sin = y/r, cos = x/r, tan = y/x, csc = r/y, sec = r/x, cot = x/y. That is how I will designate all of the specific pieces in each problem.

#3

Let's start with sin here. $\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$ Therefore, because sin is y/r, r = $\sqrt{5}$ and y = +2. Moving over to cot, which is x/y, x = -1, and y = 2. We know y has to be positive because it is positive in our given value of sin. Now, to find cos, we have to do x/r.

cos = $\frac{-1}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{-\sqrt{5}}{5}$

#4

Let's start with secant here. Secant is r/x, where r (the length value/hypotenuse) cannot be negative. So, r = 9 and x = -7. Moving over to tan, x must still equal -7, and y = $4\sqrt{2}$ . Now, to find csc, we have to do r/y.

csc = $\frac{9}{4\sqrt{2}} = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{8}$

The pythagorean identities are

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1,

1 + cot^2 = csc^2,

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

#5

Let's take a look at the information given here. We know that cos = -3/4, and sin (the y value), must be greater than 0. To find sin, we can use the first pythagorean identity.

sin^2 + (-3/4)^2 = 1

sin^2 + 9/16 = 1

sin^2 = 7/16

sin = $\sqrt{7/16}$ = $\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}$

Now to find tan using a pythagorean identity, we'll first need to find sec. sec is the inverse/reciprocal of cos, so therefore sec = -4/3. Now, we can use the third trigonometric identity to find tan, just as we did for sin. And, since we know that our y value is positive, and our x value is negative, tan will be negative.

tan^2 + 1 = (-4/3)^2

tan^2 + 1 = 16/9

tan^2 = 7/9

tan = - $\sqrt{7/9} = \frac{-\sqrt{7}}{3}$

#6

Let's take a look at the information given here. If we know that csc is negative, then our y value must also be negative (r will never be negative). So, if cot must be positive, then our x value must also be negative (a negative divided by a negative makes a positive). Let's use the second pythagorean identity to solve for cot.

1 + cot^2 = $(\frac{-\sqrt{6}}{2})^{2}$

1 + cot^2 = 6/4

cot^2 = 2/4

cot = $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

tan = $\sqrt{2}$

Next, we can use the third trigonometric identity to solve for sec. Remember that we can get tan from cot, and cos from sec. And, from what we determined in the beginning, sec/cos will be negative.

$(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}})^2$ + 1 = sec^2

4/2 + 1 = sec^2

2 + 1 = sec^2

sec^2 = 3

sec = - $\sqrt{3}$

cos = $\frac{-\sqrt{3}}{3}$

Hope this helps!! :)
