A certain forest covers an area of 2600 km². Suppose that each year this area decreases by 5%. What will the area be after 5 years?
Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest square kilometer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2012 km squared

Step-by-step explanation:

2600(.95)^5

if its going down by 5 percent, we minus 5 from 100 and put it in decimal form. any decimal lower than 1.00 will result in a lower number. for 5 years, we place 5 as an exponent

uh sorry if that doesn't make a lot of sense

Write an equation for the graph below using its zeros.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a cubic.

It has 1 root that cuts the x axis at x = -4

It has 2 roots that are the same. The reason you know this is because the curve touches the x axis, but does not go through the x axis, at 3.

y = (x + 4) (x - 3)(x - 3)

Notice the sign change. x has to have sign change when going from a root to a binomial

The root is - 4. The binomial is (x + 4)

The same argument works for x = 3

Given the inequality, select all the values of x that make that inequality true 3(2k-1)<9 0 1 2 3 4

Answers

Answer:

We have the inequality:

3*(2*x - 1) < 9

Where the given options are:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4

(you wrote k instead of x, but before you wrote "select all the values of x that make that inequality true", then I assume that the variable is x instead of k).

Again, let's start with the inequality:

3*(2*x - 1) < 9

and let's isolate the variable x.

(2*x - 1) < 9/3 = 3

(2*x - 1) < 3

2*x < 3 + 1 = 4

2*x < 4

x < 4/2

x < 2

Then all the values of x that are strictly smaller than 2 make the inequality true.

From the given options (0, 1, 2, 3, 4) the two that make the inequality true are:

x = 0

and

x = 1.

An author published a book which was being sold online. The first month the author sold 14400 books, but the sales were declining steadily at 5% each month. If this trend continues, how many total books would the author have sold over the first 23 months, to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer:

The author sold a total of 30240 books following this trend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find 5% of 14400 first;

14400 * 5%

14400 * 5/100

144 * 5

720 (So now we know that they are decreasing by 720 each month; therefore thats the constant)

=> aₙ = a₁ + r(n - 1)

=> a₂₃ = 14400 + 720(23 - 1)

=> a₂₃ = 14400 + 720(22)

=> a₂₃ = 14400 + 15840

=> a₂₃ = 30240

Hope this helps!

What is an arithmetic progression?

A, is a type of numerical sequence studied by Mathematics, where each term or element counting from the second is equal to the sum of the previous term with a constant.

So using the arithmetic progression we have:

[tex]a_n = a_1 + r(n - 1)\\a_{23} = 14400 + 720(23 - 1)\\ a_{23} = 14400 + 720(22)\\ a_{23} = 14400 + 15840\\a_{23} = 30240[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x - 3)(2x + 1)(x - 1)

Set the function equal to zero

0 = (x - 3)(2x + 1)(x - 1)

Using the zero product property

x-3 =0   2x+1 =0  x-1 =0

if 5x-26=x+50, then what is the value of x

Answers

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 26 = x + 50

Subtract x on both sides of the equation.

4x - 26 = 50

Add 26 on both sides.

4x = 76

Now, divide by 4 on both sides.

x = 19

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-26=x+50

5x = 76 +x

4x = 76

x = 19

Write an equation that represents the line

Answers

Answer:

y = -2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard equation written in slope-intercept form looks like this:

y = mx + b

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

First let's identify the y-intercept.

This is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. That point is (0, -3); therefore, our y-intercept is -3.

y = mx - 3

Now let's find the slope.

This is the rate of change of the line. It is represented by rise over run. "Over" means the number will be presented as a fraction.

We can see that from Point 2 (on the right), we rise 2 units to the level of Point 1 (on the left). This is expressed as 2.

To get directly to Point 1, we run backwards 1 unit. This is expressed as -1.

rise: 2

run: -1

rise/run = 2/-1 = -2

-2 is our slope.

y = -2x - 3

This is your equation.

Hope this helps!

Note: Options are missing. So, the general solution of the given inequality is shown below.

Given:

The inequality is:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}(x+2)+3y<8[/tex]

To find:

The point lies in the solution set of the given inequality.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}(x+2)+3y<8[/tex]

It can be written as:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}(x)+\dfrac{1}{2}(2)+3y<8[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}x+1+3y<8[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}x+3y<8-1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}x+3y<7[/tex]

For example (0,0).

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}(0)+3(0)<7[/tex]

[tex]0<7[/tex]

This statement is true. It means (0,0) is in the solution set.

For example (0,3).

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}(0)+3(3)<7[/tex]

[tex]9<7[/tex]

This statement is false. It means (0,3) is not in the solution set.

All the points in the shaded region are in the solution set but the points on the boundary line are not in the solution set.

Which interval or union of intervals represents the values for which ​f(x)​ is ≤ 0? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice.

Answers

Answer:

(-∞, -1]∪{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

f(x) ≤ 0 is true if the graph of the function is intersecting the x-axis or below the x-axis.

So we can just look at the graph, we can see that in the interval:

(-∞, -1]   (the value x = -1 is included, that is why we use the symbol ] instead of the parenthesis)

the graph is below or intersecting the x-axis

and this also happens at x = 5 or just denoted as {5}

Then the correct notation is:

(-∞, -1]∪{5}

At 9:30 am, Hudson and Colin leave on a bicycle trip. Their average speed is 20 km/ h. At 11:30 am, Danielle leaves from the same place and starts driving after them in her car. Her average speed is 60 km/ h. Create a system to determine how long will it take Danielle to catch up with Hudson and Colin?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

11:30-9:30=2

so Danielle starts 2 hrs late.

let Danielle catches them after x hrs.

x×60=(x+2)×20

divide by 20

3x=x+2

3x-x=2

2x=2

x=1

so Danielle takes 1 hour to catches them.
