The function f(x) = 50(0.952)x, where x is the time in years, models a declining feral cat population. How many feral cats will there be in 9 years?

The Function F(x) = 50(0.952)x, Where X Is The Time In Years, Models A Declining Feral Cat Population.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: B) 32

Work Shown:

f(x) = 50(0.952)^x

f(9) = 50(0.952)^9

f(9) = 32.1146016801717

f(9) = 32 approximately

Side note: the exponential function is in the form a*b^x with b = 1+r = 0.952, which solves to r = -0.048. The negative r value means we have a 4.8% decrease each year.

Another note: you don't even need to use math to answer this question. Note how 50 is the starting population and the population is declining. Only choice B has a value smaller than 50, so we can rule out the others right away.

Answer 2

Answer:

  32

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value of the population is f(0) = 50(0.952^0) = 50. If the population is declining, it must be less than 50 in 9 years. The only answer choice that is less than 50 is ...

  about 32 feral cats

_____

You can evaluate f(9) to choose the same answer:

  f(9) = 50(0.952^9) ≈ 32.114 ≈ 32

Total cost to build

Answers

Answer:

$635

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x7 birdhouses=$35want

So, $35+$600=$635 total!

I hope this helps you!

Multiplication is the process of multiplying. The cost of building 7 birdhouses will be $635.

What is multiplication?

Multiplication is the process of multiplying, therefore, adding a number to itself for the number of times stated. For example, 3 × 4 means 3 is added to itself 4 times, and vice versa for the other number.

The cost of the birdhouse is the sum of the fixed cost, which is the setup cost of the business of $600, and the variable cost is the cost that is needed to make a single house, therefore, $5.

Now, the total cost of making n number of houses will be,

Cost of making n house = Fixed cost + variable cost

                                        = $600 + $5(n)

Further, the table can be filled using the above formula by substituting the value of n for the number of houses. Therefore,

Number of bird houses     Total cost to build

       1                                     $600+$5(1) = $605

       2                                    $600+$5(2) = $610

       3                                    $600+$5(3) = $615

       4                                    $600+$5(4) = $620

       5                                    $600+$5(5) = $625

       6                                    $600+$5(6) = $630

       7                                    $600+$5(7) = $635

Hence, the cost of building 7 birdhouses will be $635.

Step-by-step explanation:

A circular hall(big room) has a hemispherical roof.The greatest height is equal to the inner diameter.Find the area of the floor,given that the capacity of the hall is 43510 cubic meter

Solution

let

diameter = D

radius,r = D/2

Greatest height = D

height of cylindrical part (h)= D-r = r

radius of cylindrical part = r

area of floor = πr²

volume = volume of cylindrical part + volume of hemispherical part

= πr²h + 2/3 πr³

Recall h=r

volume = πr³ + 2/3 πr³

43510=5/3πr³

Make r the subject

r=3√(43510*3)/5π

=3√(130,530/15.7

=3√8,314.01

=20.26

Area of floor = πr²

=3.14*(20.26)²

=3.14*410.47

If a square has a side of length 3, then it’s area is 9. This square has a side of length 3, so it’s area is 9. Is it valid or invalid?

Answers

Answer:

Yes it is valid

Step-by-step explanation:

A square is a geometric shape which is also known as a Quadrilateral. This means that it has 4 sides.

For a square, it's 4 sides are equal to one another or we can put it in other words as the length of the 4 sides of a square are congruent to one another.

From the above question, we are asked that:

"If a square has a side length of 3, it's area is 9. Is it valid or invalid?"

The above statement is valid. This is because, the formula for the Area of a Square is given as

L × L = L²

Where L = Side length = 3

Area = 3 × 3 = 3²

Area = 9

Therefore, the statement is valid.

If JK = 28, JL = 20, KL = 13, and ML = 22, calculate NL. Image not set to scale.

Answers

Answer:

NL  = 440 /13  or 33.85 (to two decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider triangles JKL and NML

angle JLK = angle NLM           vertical angles

angle KJL = angle MNL           given

Therefore triangles JKL and NML are similar

By proportion of corresponding sides of similar triangles,

NL / JL = LM / LK

Substitute given values

NL / 20 = 22 / 13

solve for NL

NL = 20*22 / 13 = 440 /13  or 33.85 (to two decimals)

Answer:

[tex]\huge \boxed{33.85}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

JL is similar to NL. KL is similar to ML.

We can use ratios to solve.

JL/KL = NL/ML

Let the length of NL be x.

20/13 = x/22

Cross multiply.

13 × x = 22 × 20

13x = 440

Divide both sides by 13.

(13x)/13 =440/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let as consider O is the center of the circle . So from the figure it is clear that

[tex]\angle AOB=44^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\angle COD=118^{\circ}[/tex]

By central angle theorem, central angle subtended by an arc is twice of inscribed angle of the same arc.

We know that, [tex]\angle BAD=97^{\circ}[/tex] and angle BOD is the central angle subtended by arc BD.

[tex]\angle BOD=2\times \angle BAD[/tex]

[tex]\angle BOD=2\times 97^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\angle BOD=194^{\circ}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]\angle BOD=\angle BOC+\angle COD[/tex]

[tex]194^{\circ}=\angle BOC+118^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]194^{\circ}-118^{\circ}=\angle BOC[/tex]

[tex]76^{\circ}=\angle BOC[/tex]

A line passes through point (5, –3) and is perpendicular to the equation y = x. What's the equation of the line?

Answers

Answer:

y = -x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

y =x  has a slope of 1

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

m* 1 = -1

The slope of the perpendicular line is -1

We have a slope and a point

y = mx+b

y= -1x+b

Substitute the point into the equation

-3 = -1(5) +b

-3 =-5 +b

Add 5 to each side

-3+5 = b

2 =b

y = -x +2

Terri graphed a system of linear inequalities. Which ordered pairs are a part of the solution set for this system of linear inequalities? Select two that apply.
(-1, 5)
(2, -4)
(7, -1)
(4, 6)
(5, 2)

Answers

Answer: (2, -4) and (7, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, the solutions of the system of inequalities are all the points that lie on the blue shaded part of the graph or in the solid line.

So, in order to see if the points are solutions of the system, then you need to locate the point in the graph and see if it is inside the shaded region or in the solid line (only in the segment that "touches" the shaded region).

Now, we want to find the equation of the solid line, we can see that it passes through the points (0, 6) and (6, 0)

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

Then, in this case, the slope is:

a = (0 - 6)/(6 - 0) = -1.

And to find the value of b, we have that when x = 0, y = 6.

y = 6 = -1*0 + b

6 = b

The equation is:

y = -1*x + 6

(-1, 5) is not in the blue region nor in the solid line, so this is not a solution.

(7, - 1) this point is near the solid line, let's test it:

y(7) = -1*7 + 6 = -1

So the point (7, -1) is on the solid line, and is the other solution of the system.

How many and of which kind of roots does the equation

A. 2 real; 3 complex
B.5 real
C. 3 real;2 complex
D.1 real;4 complex

Answers

Answer:

D. 1 real; 4 complex  

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the total number of roots

The fundamental theorem of algebra states that any polynomial of degree n has n roots.

Your polynomial is fifth degree, so it has five roots.

2. Calculate the number of real roots

We can use Descartes' rule of signs to determine the number of real roots:

The number of positive real roots is the same as the number of changes in the sign of the coefficients of ƒ(x) or less than by an even number.

The number of negative real roots is the same as the number of changes in sign of the coefficients of the terms of f(-x) or less than this by an even number.

(a) Number of positive real roots

The coefficients of ƒ(x) are

+1 +3 +8 +14 +16 + 8  

There are no changes of sign, so there are no positive real roots.

(b) Number of negative real roots

(i) Find f(-x)

f(-x) = -x⁵+ 3x⁴ - 8x³ + 14x² - 16x + 8

(ii) Count the changes of sign

The coefficients of f(-x) are

-1 ∥ +3 ∥ -8 ∥+14 ∥ -16 ∥ +8

There are five changes of sign.

Thus, the number of negative roots is five, three, or one.

So far, we know that we have five roots. None is positive, and there could be one, three, or five negative real roots.

3. Confirm by sketching the graph

The real roots are the points at which the graph crosses or touches the x-axis.

The graph (see below) crosses the x-axis at only one point.

Thus. we have

one real root (negative) four complex roots
