Answer:
The area after 9 years will be 1,234 km^2
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating what the area of a certain forest that decreases at a certain percentage would be after some years.
To answer this question, we shall be using an exponential approximation.
Now, to use this exponential approximation, we shall be needing a supporting exponential mathematical equation.
This can be written as;
A = I(1-r)^t
where A is the new area we are looking for
I is the initial area which is 1700 according to the question
r is the rate of decrease which is 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035
t is time which is 9 years according to the question
We plug these values and have the following;
A = 1700(1-0.035)^9
A = 1700(0.965)^9
A = 1,233.66
This is 1,234 km^2 to the nearest square kilometer
The slope is either 5/2 or 2/5 and the y intercept is 3
Just by estimating, 54% is a little over 1/2 of 168. You know by that, that neither A or B is close. The real answer is 90.72, so if your instructor wants you to round up, it would be D
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 6x
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 6x
x² + 6x + (3)²
= x² + 6x + 9
= (x + 3)²
Answer:
Length of each shelf is 0.45 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Determine the length of each shelf
This is calculated by dividing the total length by number of shelves as thus:
Hence;
<em>Length of each shelf is 0.45 meters</em>
