What change(s) should Sylvia make to the equation to find the value of t in the above scenario?

Answers

Answer:

Option (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of the deer [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = 4800

Decrease in the population of the deer after every 8 years = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times (\text{Initial population})[/tex]

Decrease in population is an exponential process, so the expression representing population will be,

[tex]P_{t}=P_{0}(1-r)^x[/tex]

Where [tex]P_{t}[/tex] is the population after 'x' slots of 8 years.

r = fraction of decrease in the population

x = [tex]\frac{\text{Number of years}}{8}[/tex]

By substituting the values of r and x in the expression,

[tex]P_{t}=P_{0}(1-\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]P_{t}=4800(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{8}}[/tex]

Therefore, Sylvia should do few corrections in her expression.

(8) should be replaced by ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]) and [tex]\frac{t}{2}[/tex] should be replaced by [tex]\frac{t}{8}[/tex].

Joe needs to replace the carpet in his living room and hallway with laminate flooring. A floor plan is shown below. Can you help him to find the total area of floor that needs to be covered?

Answers

*diagram of floor plan is attached below

Answer:

30m²

Step-by-step Explanation:

From the floor plan shown in the attached diagram, the hall way and the living room both takes the shape of a rectangle.

To find the total area of floor to be covered, we can use the formula of the area of a rectangle to find the area of the hall way + the area of the living room.

Area of rectangle = L*B

For the hall way, L = 3.2m, B = 1.5m

Area of hall way = 3.2*1.5 = 4.8m²

For the living room, L = 6m, B = 4.2m

Area of Living room = 6*4.2 = 25.2m²

Therefore, area of floor to be covered = 4.8m² + 25.2m² = 30m²

Answer:

30m²

We can use ratios to solve

------ = ----------

9         9+DC

Using cross products

12( 9+DC) = 9*(12+4)

12 (9+DC) = 9*16

Divide each side by 12

12/12 (9+DC) = 9*16/12

9+DC = 12

Subtract 9 from each side

9+DC-9 =12-9

DC =3

Answer:

3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that triangle ADE is similar to triangle ACB.

Therefore the ratios of the lengths of their sides must be equal.

We can write AD/AC = AE/AB

we are given AD = 9, AE = 12 and AB = 12 + 4 = 16

Substituting the above values into the equation:

AD/AC = AE/AB

9 / AC = 12/16  (rearranging)

(AC)(12) = (9)(16)

AC = (9)(16)/12

AC = 12

We can also see that

DC = AC - AD

DC = 12 - 9

DC = 3 units

A committee consisting of 2 faculty members and 4 students is to be formed. Every committee position has the same duties and voting rights. There are 10 faculty members and 11 students eligible to serve on the committee. In how many ways can the committee be formed?

Answers

Answer:

14,850 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the order does not matter, the number of possible committees is given by the product of the combination of picking 2 out of 10 faculty members and the combination of picking 4 out of 11 students:

[tex]n= \frac{10!}{(10-2)!2!}* \frac{11!}{(11-4)!4!}\\n=\frac{10*9}{2}*\frac{11*10*9*8}{4*3*2*1}\\n=14,850[/tex]

a + p = [tex]\frac{4x}{t}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by t )

t(a + p) = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )

who can solve ? 9y < -3

Answers

Answer:

y< -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality, we must get the variable, y, by itself.

9y< -3

Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation, to both sides.

y is being multiplied by 9. The opposite of multiplication is division. Therefore, divide both sides by 9.

9y/9 < -3/9

y< -3/9

-3/9 can be reduced. 3 can be divided evenly into both the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number).

y< (-3/3) / (9/3)

Length of DE is ___

Measure of angle FED is ___

Answers

Answer:

Length of DE = 7.5 units

Length of DB = 9.2 units

Measure of ∠FED = 82°

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔABC,

AD ≅ BD and CE ≅ BE [Given]

By the theorem of mid-segments,

DE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(AC)[/tex]

     = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(15)[/tex]

DE = 7.5 units

Since AD ≅ FE ≅ 9.2 [By midpoint theorem in ΔACB]

Therefore, length of DB = 9.2 units

[Although it's not given in the question, but we assume FE║AB]

Since FE║AB and DE is a transverse,

Therefore, m(∠FED) ≅ m(∠BDE) ≅ 82° [Interior alternate angles]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A motorcycle has an initial speed of u m/s. It accelerates to a speed of 1.2u in 10 seconds

V = U + at

1.2u  = u  + a*10

=> a = 0.02u

S= ut + (1/2)at²

Distance in 1st 10 secs

S = u(10) + (1/2)(0.02)(10)²

=> S = 10u + u

=>  S = 11u  m

Constant speed 1.2u for 15 secs

S = 1.2u * 15

=> S = 18u m

Total Distance Covered d  = 11u + 18u = 29u  m

Chimney swifts can easily adapt roosting behaviors to any structure made of the proper material C. Chimney swifts are nocturnal birds whose large numbers are evident in the size of their colonies D. Moving in large chipping flocks is a natural protection against predators Chimney swifts are small, slender birds that have become a symbol of summer for many. They usually appear in North America during warm, summer months as they make their way to more tropical sites for the winter. They are recognized most often as spectacular, chirping flocks moving through the sky in synchrony. Chimney swifts can be seen most vividly at dusk when large colonies of hundreds, or even thousands of individuals form tornado-like funnels as they descend into the chimneys. Unfortunately, the size of the colonies we see is misleading. Though the numbers may seem remarkable, chimney swift populations have been declining sharply since the 1970's due primarily to habitat loss. Unlike most birds, chimney swifts cannot perch or stand upright, so they require long, hollow spaces that are enclosed to provide safe roosting and nesting sites. Historically, chimney swifts preferred hollow trees. However, as pioneers colonized territory and replaced forests with towns, the species was forced to adapt by using other structures, such as chimneys. In the US, a large-scale shift to alternate heat sources, chimney- capping and the use of fabricated chimneys has drastically impacted their ability to nest during migration. Traditionally, chimneys were lined with clay, which the swifts were able to cling to and make their nests. Newer, prefabricated chimneys are often lined with metal flues Traditionally, chimneys were lined with clay, which the swifts were able to cling to and make their nests. Newer, prefabricated chimneys are often lined with metal flues that make it impossible for them to use. In addition, logging and deforestation may make finding suitable overwintering habitat more challenging than ever. In an effort to sustain the remaining population, conservation groups have designed supplemental housing structures, called "Chimney towers." These towers are designed specifically to provide roosting sites for chimney swifts. Chimney swifts now rely almost entirely on man-made structures like these to survive. However, because this species is remarkably adaptable, even minimal conservation efforts like keeping traditional masonry chimneys uncapped during the summer months can drastically improve their chance of survival.
