The population Pa of insect A after t years is given by the equation
Pa = 1.3(1-0.038)^t
while the population Pb of insect B after t years is
Pb = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
We equate the above expressions to find the number of years t it will take the two populations to be equal:
Pa = Pb
1.3(1-0.038)^t = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
1.3(0.962)^t = 2.1(0.954)^t
These are the equations that can be used to determine how long it will be before the populations of the two species are equal.
We can now solve for t:
(0.962)^t / (0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
(0.962/0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
After taking the log of both sides of our equation, number of years t is
t = log (2.1/1.3) / log (0.962/0.954)
t = 57 years
Therefore, it will take 57 years for the population of insect A to equal the population of insect B.

G is plotted 4 units left and 3 units up
:) ur welcome
2(21x − 7) + 4(3x + 2) = 6(2x + 9) + 3
42x - 14 + 12x + 8= 12x + 54 + 3
54x - 6= 12x + 57
54x=12x + 63
42x=63
x= 63/42
x= 3/2

Answer:
The answer is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to apply Discriminant Law. When a quadratic equation, ax² + bx + c = 0 has equal roots so the discriminant will be 0. Then, you have to substitute the values into the formula :
