Answer:
DESCRIPTION: Large for a modern amphibian, the male California tiger salamander can reach up to 8.5 inches in length, the female up to seven. Adults have protruding eyes and long tails, and their slick bodies are mostly black with brilliant yellow spots and stripes on their back, sides, and tail. Larvae are greenish gray in color.
HABITAT: California tiger salamanders can be found in annual grasslands and oak woodlands with hot, dry summers and cool, rainy winters. For most of the year, they reside in underground burrows created and abandoned by small mammals. They need ephemeral pools for breeding.
RANGE: Historically these salamanders ranged throughout California's Sacramento and San Joaquin River valleys, the surrounding foothills, and the lower elevations of the state's central coast. Now their distribution is limited to disjunct vernal pool complexes in the northern part of their historical range. The northernmost and southernmost populations, residing in Sonoma and Santa Barbara counties respectively, are genetically distinct and geographically isolated from others.
MIGRATION: Once fall and winter rains begin, adult tiger salamanders emerge from underground hibernation habitat in mammal burrows and migrate to breeding ponds. After breeding, adults disperse back to uplands habitat to retreat underground. Adults may migrate long distances between summering and breeding sites: salamanders have been found along roads more than 1.2 miles from any known breeding ponds. Juvenile salamanders dispersing from ponds have been trapped more than 1,200 feet from their natal ponds.
BREEDING: Following early-winter rains, California tiger salamanders nocturnally emerge from their burrows and lay their eggs in newly formed vernal pools. After the eggs are fertilized internally, a female can lay up to 1,300, which she deposits individually or in small batches. Adults move back to their terrestrial burrows after breeding.
LIFE CYCLE: Within two weeks of egg fertilization, salamander larvae hatch, remaining in their natal pools for two to three months. By late spring or summer, once they reach metamorphosis, juveniles roam up to two miles away to hibernate in terrestrial habitat. Salamanders are thought to have lifespans of 10 years or more.
FEEDING: For the first six weeks of life, juveniles eat small crustaceans, algae, and mosquito larvae. Adult salamanders prey on aquatic insects, invertebrates, and tadpoles of Pacific tree frogs, California red-legged frogs, western toads, and spadefoot toads.
THREATS: The California tiger salamander is threatened by habitat destruction due to urban and agricultural development, habitat fragmentation, pesticides, hybridization with nonnative tiger salamanders, introduced diseases, and predation by nonnative species.
POPULATION TREND: Surveys showed that by 1993, the California tiger salamander had been extirpated from at least half of its historic localities. By 2004, only six tiger salamander meta-populations within 48 breeding ponds remained in Santa Barbara County, and by 2005, only seven viable tiger salamander breeding sites remained in Sonoma County.

It is not a valid sample because it is only a short study.
b
It is a valid sample because money was offered to participants.
c
It is a valid sample because the first 10 people were selected to participate.
d
It is not a valid sample because it is not a random sample of the population.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:

what is the solution of in(x-2)^2=6
Answer:
22.09
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression ln(x-2)^2=6
Take exponent of both sides
e^ln(x-2)^2=e^6
(x-2)² = e^6
(x-2)² = 403.43
x - 2 = √403.43
x - 2= 20.09
x = 20.09 + 2
x = 22.09
Hence the value of x is 22.09

Answer:
x = 134
Step-by-step explanation:
Exterior angle = sum of opposite interior angles
= 90 + 44 = 134
OR
Sum of angles of triangle = 180
that is,
90 + 44 +y = 180
y = 180 - 134
y = 46
x + y = 180 [ straight line angles ]
x + 46 = 180
x = 180 - 46 = 134
Answer:
x = 134
Step-by-step explanation:
triangle sum theorem states that the sum of all angles within a triangle is equal to 180 degrees. using this we can figure out that the missing angle in the triangle is 46.
a straight line is also equal to 180 degrees, so to find the adjacent angle, we subtract 46 from 180, and we get 134
A TV has a listed price of $695.95 before tax. If the sales tax rate is 7.75%, find the total cost of the TV with sales tax included. Round your answer to the nearest cent, if necessary.
Answer:
$749.89
Step-by-step explanation:
TV price = 100% = 695.95
Sales TAX = 7.75% = x
Total price = 107.75% = x dollars
1.0775 * 685.95 = 749.886125 ≈ 749.89

Find the value of x when : 2^30/8^9=2^x
The line means divide
please i need step by stem explanation I already know answer
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, the first thing to do is get that 8 away from the fraction. How can we do it? When you have 2³ you have 8, is the same thing, so let's do it:
2³⁰/(2³)⁹ = 2^x
When you have a number with the shape (a^x)^y, you can write it as a^(x•y), so:
(2³)⁹ = 2^3•9 = 2²⁷
Now we have:
2³⁰/2²⁷ = 2^x
When you have a division like this: (a^x)/(a^y), you can write it as a^(x-y), so:
2^(30-27) = 2^x
2^-3 = 2^x
Now you know that x = -3

The product of two consecutive even integers is 36 less than 18 times their sum. Find the two integers
Answer:
34 and 36
Step-by-step explanation: 7 1 17 15
product of two consecutive even integer x(x+2) x is even
product of two consecutive even integer x(x + 2) plus 36 equal 18(x +x + 2)
x(x+2) + 36 = 18(x +x +2)
x² + 2x + 36 = 18x + 18x + 36 36's cancel, 2x - 36x = -34x
x² - 34x = 0 solve for x
x( x - 34) = 0 x = 0 and 34 only 34 is an even number!
x = 34 and 36
If t and m are positive, t^2 + m^2 = 64 and (t+m)^2 = 98, what is tm?
(A) 162
(B) 130
(C) 81
(D) 34
(E) 17
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
t^2 + m^2 = 64
(t+m)^2 = 98
(t+m)^2 = t^2 +2tm+ m^2
==>
t^2 +2tm+ m^2 = 98
t^2+m^2+2tm=98
64+ 2tm=98
2tm = 98 -64
2tm=34
tm= 34/2
tm = 17
Sofia earns $9 per hour mowing lawns. The total amount earned (t) equals the amouont earned per hour times the number of hours (h) . Which equation gives the total amount earned t if Lina works (h) hours ?
Answer:
9h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Sofia earns $9 per hour mowing lawns
Let the total amount earned be t
and let the time worked be h
Hence
t= 9*h
t= 9h
The expression is 9h

Grant is working at a veterinarian's office, and he needs to give a dose of medicine to a
25 kg dog. If a 10 kg dog needs 18 mL of the same medicine, how many milliliters of
medicine does the 25 kg dog need?
Answer:
45ml
Step-by-step explanation:
10 kg needs 18mL
So, 1kg = 1.8ml
25kg needs = 1.8kg/ml x 25 kg
25 kg dog would need 45ml.
Answer:
45 ml
Step-by-step explanation:
Weight of the dog and quantity of medicine is in Direct proportion.
Let the quantity required for 25 Kg dog =x
10 : 18 :: 25 : x
Product of extremes = product of means
10 * x = 18 * 25
[tex]x = \frac{18 * 25}{10}\\\\x = 9 * 5 \\\\x = 45[/tex]

A homeowner wants to fence in a rectangular yard space along one side of her house. The total area she can fence in is 800 square feet. Create a model to determine a possible length and width of the yard. *REMEMBER*: AREA = LENGTH times WIDTH.
Answer:
Length: 20 or 40 feet
Width: 40 or 20 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = 800 = length*width = x*(60-x)= 60x - x^2
- x^2 + 60x - 800 = 0
x = 20
Or x = 40
So length can be either 20 feet or 40 feet and width can be 40 (60-20) or 20 (60-40)
