There are 250 wolves in a national park. the wolf population is increasing at a rate of 16% per year. write an exponential model

Helga [31]

$\qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth} \\\\ A=P(1 + r)^t\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{initial amount}\dotfill &250\\ r=rate\to 16\%\to \frac{16}{100}\dotfill &0.16\\ t=\textit{elapsed time} \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=250(1 + 0.16)^{t}\implies A=250(1.16)^t \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$A=P(1 + r)^t\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill &1000\\ P=\textit{initial amount}\dotfill &250\\ r=rate\to 16\%\to \frac{16}{100}\dotfill &0.16\\ t=\textit{elapsed time} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 1000=250(1.16)^t\implies \cfrac{1000}{250}=1.16^t\implies 4=1.16^t \\\\\\ \log(4)=\log(1.16^t)\implies \log(4)=t\log(1.16) \\\\\\ \cfrac{\log(4)}{\log(1.16)}=t\implies \stackrel{\textit{about 9 years and 4 months}}{9.34\approx t}$

Tia performed an experiment where she flipped a coin 200 times. The coin landed heads up 92 times and tails up 108 times. Which

11111nata11111 [884]

only the first statement is true - it is the experimental probability. the rest is incorrect: the ratio is not the number of trials; the theoretical probability should be 0.5 (for unbiased coins); ratio never represents a number of occurences.

What is the volume of a right trianular prism with the dimesions of 15 11 17

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

1402.5 Cubic Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a Triangular Prism: V = $\frac{1}{2}bhl$

b - base

h - height

l - length

15 is the height, 17 is the length, and 11 is the width (assuming which is the base).

$V=0.5 * (11 * 15 * 17) \\V=0.5*2085\\V=1402.5$

The volume of the prism should be 1402.5 cubic units.
