A bird species in danger of extinction has a population that is decreasing exponentially (A = A0e^kt). Five years ago, the population was at 1400 and today only 1000 of the birds are alive. Once the population drops below 100, the situation will be irreversible. When will this happen?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It'll take approximately 34 years from today.

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to solve this problem we first need to find the rate of change, "k", to do that we will use the given information where the population was 1400 five years ago and its now 1000. Applying this data to the equation gives us:

[tex]A = A_0*e^{k*t}\\1000 = 1400*e^{5*k}\\1400*e^{5*k} = 1000\\e^{5*k} = \frac{1000}{1400}\\ln(e^{5*k}) = ln(\frac{1000}{1400})\\5*k = ln(1000) - ln(1400) \\k = \frac{ln(1000) - ln(1400)}{5} = -0.06729[/tex]

We now know the value for "k", we can estimate how many years it will take for the bird population to dip below 100. We have:

[tex]100 = 1000*e^{-0.06729*t}\\e^{-0.06729*t} = \frac{100}{1000}\\ln(e^{-0.06729*t} = \frac{1}{10}\\-0.06729*t = ln(0.1)\\t = -\frac{ln(0.1)}{0.06729} = 34.22[/tex]

It'll take approximately 34 years from today.

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

well less than 3

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this problem is to find out how far he can go in 1/2 hour.

If he goes 3 miles in 1 hour

he will go 3/2 miles in 1/2 hour

=============

Now just add this onto the distance travelled in 1 hour.

3 + 3/2 = 3 + 1.5 = 4.5

The answer is A

The answer can be obtained another (perhaps better ) way.

Set up a proportion

1 hour gives 3 miles

1.5 hours gives x

1/1.5 = 3/x                Cross multiply

1*x = 1.5 * 3             Combine    

x = 4.5 miles

Given the pair of triangles are similar find the unknown length of the sides labeled with a variable

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. Let us assume the following:

Let us assume triangle ABC is a right angled triangle with side AB = 24, AC = 32 and the hypotenuse BC = 40.  Triangle PQR is a right angled triangle similar to triangle ABC with side PQ = 27,  PR= b and the hypotenuse QR = a.

Answer:

Two triangles are said to be similar if they have proportional angles or proportional sides that is they have the same shape. For similar triangles, the ratio of their corresponding side are the same.

Given that triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, therefore:

[tex]\frac{AB}{AC}=\frac{PQ}{PR}\\ Substituting:\\\frac{24}{32}=\frac{27}{b}\\cross\ multiplying:\\b=\frac{27*32}{24}\\ b=36[/tex]

[tex]\frac{AB}{BC}=\frac{PQ}{QR}\\ Substituting:\\\frac{24}{40}=\frac{27}{a}\\cross\ multiplying:\\a=\frac{27*40}{24}\\ a=45[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex](x-2)^2+(y+4)^2=34[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for the equation of a circle is [tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex], where h is the x coordinate of the center of the circle, k is the y coordinate, and r is the radius. Since you already know the coordinates of the center of the circle, all you need to do is find the radius. Using the distance formula:

[tex]r=\sqrt{(7-2)^2+(-1-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{5^2+3^2}=\sqrt{25+9}=\sqrt{34}[/tex]

The equation of the circle is therefore:

"Ashley and Beth drove from city A to city B in exactly 5 hours, not taking any rest stops. Ashley drive up to the area located half way between the two cities at the average speed of 40 miles per hour and then Beth drove the other half at an average speed of 60 miles per hour. How many hours did Beth drive on their trip?"

Answers

Answer:

Time taken by Beth = 2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Average speed of Ashley = 40 miles per hour

Average speed of Beth = 60 miles per hour

Total time taken = 5 hours

Distance covered by Ashley = Distance covered by Beth

Find:

Total time taken by Beth

Computation:

Assume, Distance covered by Beth = x

So, Distance covered by Ashley = x

Time taken by Beth = t

Time taken by Ashley = 5 - t

So,

Distance covered by Ashley = Average speed of Ashley × Time taken by Ashley

x = 40 × (5 - t)

x = 200 - 40t................Eq1

Distance covered by Beth = Average speed of Beth × Time taken by Beth

x = 60 × t................Eq2

From Eq2 - Eq1

100 t = 200

t = 2 hours

Time taken by Beth = 2 hours

Answer:

x = 2

y = 1

z = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, we know y=z-x.

Let's plug in that y-value into the first equation: x + 2 (z - x) -z =1

Simplify that down to x +2z -2x -z = 1

Equation 1 becomes -x + z = 1

Let's plug it into equation 3 and solve to get: 2x - (z - x) +3z = 12

Equation 3 becomes 3x + 2z = 12

Now let's use system of equations for those two equations we just found

3x + 2z = 12

-2x + 2z = 2 ------> multiplied this by 2 to simplify

subtract, and you 5x = 10, x = 2

Use x = 2 and solve for the other variables using the same method (try this on your own!) to get y = 1 and z = 3

Anyone know the answer to this ?

Answers

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we must do is gather information about the two triangles. The problem says that the two triangles are ≅. This sign, ≅, means that the two triangles are congruent. Congruent means two things that have the same measurements and are equal in measure.

So, since we know this, we can conclude that AB≅PQ, BC≅QR, and CA≅RP.

In order to find the measurement of PM, we are going to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the measurement of PR. Then, we are going to divide that number by 2 because M is the midpoint of PR. Midpoints divides the line segment into two equal parts.

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

a = 6

b = 8

Now, let's plug in these numbers.

(6)² + (8)² = c²

Simplify the exponents.

36 + 64 = c²

Add the numbers together.

100 = c²

Take the square root of 100 and c².

√100 = √c²

Simplify the square roots.

10 = c

Now, divide 10 by 2.

10 / 2 = 5

So, the measurement of PM is 5 cm.

The length of PM is 5

Use the formula a^2 +b^2 = c^2

Plug in 6 for a

Plug in 8 for b

6^2 =36

8^2=64

36+64=100

The square root of 100 is 10

10 would be LINE PR

Line PM is half of PR

So 10/2 =5

2. Karen was just trying different combinations of colored rods one at a time, placing the colored rods together to see if they make a triangle. What method did you use to determine the triangle options? Which method do you think is better and why?

Answers

Answer:

9 possible combinations: RGB, RYG, RGB, OYG, OGB, OBP, YGB, YBP, GBP

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to consider The Triangle Inequality Theorem which states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

Let's see what are the possible combinations:

3+4= 7 so possible 3rd side is 5

3, 4, 5 or ROY

3+5= 8 so possible 3 rd side is 7

3, 5, 7 or RYG

3+7= 10 so possible 3rd side is 5 or 9 (5 is repeat of the one above)

3, 7, 9 or RGB

3+9= 12 so possible 3rd side is 7, see one above

3+12= 15 so possible 3 rd side is none

4+5=9 so possible 3rd side is 7

4, 5, 7 or OYG

4+7= 11 so possible 3rd side is 9

4, 7, 9 or OGB

4+9= 13 so possible 3rd side is 12

4, 9, 12 or OBP

5+7= 12 so possible 3rd side is 9

5, 7, 9 or YGB

5+9= 14 so possible 3rd side is 12

5, 9, 12 or YBP

7+9= 16 so possible 3rd side is 12

7, 9, 12 or GBP

So the possible 9 combinations are:

RGB, RYG, RGB, OYG, OGB, OBP, YGB, YBP, GBP
