answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
On this question we see that we are given two points on a certain graph that has a maximum point at 57 feet and in 0.76 seconds after it is thrown, we know can say this point is a turning point of a graph of the rock that is thrown as we are told that the function f determines the rocks height above the road (in feet) in terms of the number of seconds t since the rock was thrown therefore this turning point coordinate can be written as (0.76, 57) as we are told the height represents y and x is represented by time in seconds. We are further given another point on the graph where the height is now 0 feet on the road then at this point its after 3.15 seconds in which the rock is thrown in therefore this coordinate is (3.15,0).
now we know if a rock is thrown it moves in a shape of a parabola which we see this equation is quadratic. Now we will use the turning point equation for a quadratic equation to get a equation for the height which the format is
, where (p,q) is the turning point. now we substitute the turning point
, now we will substitute the other point on the graph or on the function that we found which is (3.15, 0) then solve for a.
0 = a(3.15 - 0.76)^2 + 57
-57 =a(2.39)^2
-57 = a(5.7121)
-57/5.7121 =a
-9.9788169 = a then we substitute a to get the quadratic equation therefore f is

i.e after the first year ;
there 1344 members in the first age class
84 members for the second age class; and
28 members for the third age class
Step-by-step explanation:
We can deduce that the age distribution vector x represents the number of population members for each age class; Given that in each class of age there are 112 members present.
The current age distribution vector is as follows:
![x = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&2\\1&1&2\\1&1&2\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}{0 \ \leq age \leq 1 }\\{ 0 \ \leq age \leq 2 }\\{0 \ \leq age \leq 3}\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%262%5C%5C1%261%262%5C%5C1%261%262%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%7B0%20%5C%20%20%5Cleq%20%20age%20%20%20%5Cleq%20%201%20%7D%5C%5C%7B%200%20%5C%20%20%5Cleq%20%20age%20%20%20%5Cleq%20%202%20%7D%5C%5C%7B0%20%5C%20%20%5Cleq%20%20age%20%20%20%5Cleq%203%7D%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Also , the age transition matrix is as follows:
![L = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&6&3\\0.75&0&0 \\0&0.25&0\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=L%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D3%266%263%5C%5C0.75%260%260%20%5C%5C0%260.25%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
After 1 year ; the age distribution vector will be :
![x_2 =Lx_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&6&3\\0.75&0&0 \\0&0.25&0\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&2\\1&1&2\\1&1&2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x_2%20%3DLx_1%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D3%266%263%5C%5C0.75%260%260%20%5C%5C0%260.25%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%262%5C%5C1%261%262%5C%5C1%261%262%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

Answer:
f(-2) = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
f(x) = 3x² - 4x + 1
f(-2) is x = -2
Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate
f(-2) = 3(-2)² - 4(-2) + 1
f(-2) = 3(4) + 8 + 1
f(-2) = 12 + 9
f(-2) = 21
Answer:
-14
Step-by-step explanation:
a·b = |a|×|b|×cos(angle between them)
= 4×7×(-1/2)
= -14
Answer:
t =log(20) / 0.3 = 10*log(20) / log(1,000) - years - when the tree will have 100 branches.
Step-by-step explanation:
100 = 5 * 10^(0.3t), solve for t
Divide both sides by 5:
20 =10^(0.3t)
Take the log of both sides:
0.3t =log(20)
Divide both sides by 0.3:
Multiply the RHS by 10 / 10
t =log(20) / 0.3 = 10*log(20) / log(1,000) - years - when the tree will have 100 branches.
