HELP 50 POINTSThe stingray population in a particular reef is decreasing at a rate of 1.4% per year. The population was 3800 in the year 2008. What is the best prediction of the population in the year 2013?

Answers

Answer 1

The best prediction of the population in the year 2013 is 3541 based on the fact that the population decreases by 1.4% every year

What is the number of years between 2008 and 2013?

The number of years between 2008 when the population figure was at 3,800 and 2013 is 5 years, hence when determining the population for the year 2013 we need to bear in mind that the population has decreased by 1.4% over a period of 5 years

FV=PV*(1-r)^N

FV= best prediction of the population in the year 2013

PV=population in 2008=3800

r=decreasing rate of the population=1.4%

N=number of years that have passed between 2008 and 2013

FV=3800*(1-1.4%)^5

FV=3541

The actual weight of the animal is between 450.2 and 426.2 pounds

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Inequality can be used to show that two variables or numbers are not equal to each other.

The weight of the larger animals can be off by 12 pounds. Let x represent the actual weight of the animal. If the scale reads 438.2 lbs, hence:

|x - 438.2| = 12

x - 438.2 = 12; or -(x - 438.2) = 12

x = 450.2; or x = 426.2

The actual weight of the animal is between 450.2 and 426.2 pounds

The line which is perpendicular to the given line y = -x/8 + 3 is y - 8x =-2, there slopes are negative reciprocals of each other

How to fine the line that is perpendicular to the given line

Given data

line y = -x/8 + 3

The equation of a line is represented as y = mx + c where m represents the slope. The unique feature of perpendicular line is that the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.

Hence we find the line that has same value of m which is the slope

using the second option: y - 8x = -2

y - 8x = 2

y = 8x - 2

y = 8x - 2

the slope here is m = 8 which is equal to the negative reciprocals of the slope in the given equation and hence the correct option

Answers

Using it's concept, the average rates of change are given as follows:

a. 1264.03 soda per person per year.

b. 5851.89 soda per person per year.

c. 128010.89 soda per person per year.

What is the average rate of change of a function?

The average rate of change of a function is given by the change in the output divided by the change in the input. Hence, over an interval [a,b], the rate is given as follows:

[tex]r = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

For this problem, the function is given as follows:

f(x) = 5.852x^4 - 0.002x³ + 0.006x² + 0.029x + 47.855.

From 1990 to 1996, we have t = 0 to t = 6, hence:

f(0) = 47.855.f(6) = 5.852(6)^4 - 0.002(6)³ + 0.006(6)² + 0.029(6) + 47.855 = 7632.01.

Hence the rate is:

(7632.01- 47.855)/6 = 1264.03.

1264.03 soda per person per year.

From 1990 to 2000, we have t = 0 to t = 10, hence:

f(0) = 47.855.f(10) = 5.852(10)^4 - 0.002(10)³ + 0.006(10)² + 0.029(10) + 47.855 = 58566.75.

Hence the rate is:

(58566.75 - 47.855)/10 = 5851.89.

5851.89 soda per person per year.

From 2005 to 2010, we have t = 15 to t = 20, hence:

f(15) = 5.852(15)^4 - 0.002(15)³ + 0.006(15)² + 0.029(15) + 47.855 = 296300.39.f(20) = 5.852(20)^4 - 0.002(20)³ + 0.006(20)² + 0.029(20) + 47.855 = 936354.84.

Hence the rate is:

(936354.84 - 296300.39)/5 = 128010.89.

128010.89 soda per person per year.

What is an expression?

An expression is a number, or a variable, or a combination of numbers and variables and operation symbols.

The given statement is,

the difference between nine times a number and one more than five times the number

Let x be the number.

Thus, we have

nine times a number = 9x

one more than five times the number = 1 - 5x

Thus, the numerical expression we get is

9x + (1 - 5x)

Expanding we get

9x + 1 - 5x

Answer:

  120 cubes will fill the box

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the number of 1-inch cubes it takes to fill a box that is 5 cubes long, 4 cubes wide, and 6 inches tall.

Layer

To cover the bottom of the box, Chan needs to make an array of cubes that has 4 rows with 5 cubes in each row. That layer will have ...

  4 × 5 = 20 . . . . cubes per layer

Volume

Each layer occupies 1 inch of height, and the box is 6 inches high. The volume of the box will be filled with six of these layers. That will take this many cubes:

  (6 layers) × (20 cubes/layer) = 6 × 20 cubes = 120 cubes

Chan will need 120 cubes to fill the box.

a) What is P(1) if Rhonda chooses spinner A? P(1|A) = __

b) What is P(1) if Rhonda chooses spinner A? P(1|B) = __

c) Choose the correct symbol to make the statement true

Answers

Using probability we get (a) P(1|A) = 1/2 and (b)P(1|B) =3/4 , hence P(1|A) ≠ P(1|B).

Probability is the study of chance . The part of mathematics known as probability deals with fractional representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.

Probability is calculated by the fraction possible outcomes ÷ total outcomes

a) The first spinner has the total 4 sections. so there are 4 total outcomes.

Favorable outcome = 1

Total number of favorable outcome=2

Probability P(1|A) = favorable outcome ÷ total outcome

∴ P(1|A) =2/4 or P(1|A) =1/2

b) The first spinner has the total 4 sections. so there are 4 total outcomes.

Favorable outcome = 1

Total number of favorable outcome=3

Probability P(1|B) = favorable outcome ÷ total outcome

∴ P(1|B) =3/4 or P(1|B) =3/4

c)Therefore P(1|A)≠P(1|B)  so the events A and B are dependent.

What is the experimental probability that the next person to sign up will have blue eyes?
Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.
P(blue)=

Answers

The experimental probability of next person to have Blue eyes is 3/7.

Probability :

Probability is the branch of mathematics that studies the possible outcomes of given events together with the outcomes' relative likelihoods and distributions.

It is based on the possible chances of something to happen.

Probability (P) = Number of a Favourable outcome {n (E)} / Total number of outcomes {n (S)}  

Simply,  P = n (E) / n (S)

Given, Eye colors of the people

Green = 2

Blue    = 30

Brown = 38

To find the probability of next person to have blue eyes, first we will add the given eye colors

Total number of Eye Colors = 2 + 30 + 38 = 70

Number of Blue Eyes = 30

Then, Probability to have blue eyes P(blue) = Number of Blue Eyes / Total number of Eye Colors

                                                      = 30/70

                                                      = 3/7

So, there is 3/7 chances to next person to have blue eyes.

During a game of​ one-on-one, Rodney and Justin scored 39 points altogether. If Justin lost the game by 1 ​point, how many points did each player​ score? Use a system of linear equations in two variables to solve the problem

Answers

The points scored by Rodney is 20 points.

The points scored by Justin is 19 points.

How many points did each player score?

x + y = 39 equation 1

x - y = 1 equation 2

Where:

x = points scored by Rodney

y = points scored by Justin

In order to determine the points scored by Justin, take the following steps:

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1 :

2y = 38

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

y = 38/2

y = 19 points

To determine the value of x, substitute for y in equation 2

x - 19 = 1

Combine similar terms: x = 19 + 1

Find the average rate of change of f (x)=x-2√x on the interval [1, 9].

Answers

The average rate of change of f(x) = x - 2√x on the interval [1, 9] is 1/2.

What is average rate of change?

It is a measure of how much the function changed per unit, on average, over that interval.

We have,

f(x) = x - 2√x

On the interval [1,9].

[1, 9] = [a, b]

The average rate of change:

= f(b) - f(a) / b - a

= f(9) - f(1) / 9 - 1

= [(9 - 2√9) - (1 - 2√1)] / 8

= [ (9 - 6) - (1 - 2) ] / 8

= (3 + 1) / 8

= 4 / 8

= 1/2

Thus the average rate of change of f(x) = x - 2√x on the interval [1, 9] is 1/2.
