Silverton County is home to a declining population of sage grouse, an endangered species of land bird similar to turkeys. Every decade, the Silverton Wildlife Center publishes its estimate of the county's sage grouse population. The most recent estimate, published this year, concluded that there are about 115,000 sage grouse in the county, and the population is expected to decrease by a factor of 1/4 each decade.
Write an exponential equation in the form y=a(b)x that can model the estimated population of sage grouse in Silverton County, y, in x decades.
Use whole numbers, decimals, or simplified fractions for the values of a and b.

Answer:

The original price of the shirt was Ksh 500 and it was sold for Ksh 550.

The discount is the difference between the original price and the selling price, which is Ksh 500 - Ksh 550 = Ksh -50.

To find the percentage discount, we can use the formula:

percentage discount = (discount ÷ original price) × 100%

percentage discount = (-50 ÷ 500) × 100%

percentage discount = -10%

Therefore, the percentage discount is 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding a magnitude of an earthquake on the Richter Scale is given as
[tex]R = \log\left(\dfrac{A}{A_0}\right)\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm{where}\\\textrm{A - measure of amplitude of quake wave}\\\textrm{$A_0$ = amplitude of smallest detectable wave}\\[/tex]

Given A = 0.3954 and A₀ = 0.0001, we can plug in these values into the R equation to get

[tex]R = \log\left(\dfrac{0.3954}{0.0001}\right)\\\\= \log(3954)\\\\= 3.597\\\\= 3.6\text { rounded to the nearest tenth}[/tex]

The absolute value function y = |x| looks like a "V" shape, with the vertex at the origin and the arms going off to positive and negative infinity. To shrink this function vertically by a factor of 2/9, we can multiply the entire function by 2/9:

y = (2/9)|x|

This new function has the same "V" shape, but the y-values are only two-ninths as large as they would be for the original function at any given value of x. The vertex of the new function is still at the origin, and the arms still go off to positive and negative infinity.

Answer:

The rectangle is 7.9 meters by 2.9 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be the length and w be the width

l = w + 5

A = 23 m²

Formula: A = lw

Solve for the dimensions

23 = (w+5)w

23 = w² + 5w

w² + 5w - 23 = 0

Use quadratic formula to find the possible value/s of w

[tex]w = \frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\\ w = \frac{-5+-\sqrt{5^2-4(1)(-23)} }{2(1)} \\w = \frac{-5+-\sqrt{25+92} }{2}\\ w = \frac{-5+-\sqrt{117} }{2} \\w = \frac{-5+-\sqrt{9(13)} }{2} \\w = \frac{-5+-3\sqrt{13} }{2}\\ w = \frac{-5+3\sqrt{13} }{2} = 2.9\\ w = \frac{-5-3\sqrt{13} }{2} = -7.9[/tex]

Since we're dealing with dimensions, take the positive value which is 2.9.

w = 2.9 m

Substitute the value to l = w + 5

l = 2.9 + 5

l = 7.9 m

10. The total sample, 290 individuals have cats, while 306 individuals do not have cats. Furthermore, 312 individuals have dogs, while 284 individuals do not have dogs.

In order to find the marginal frequencies, we need to calculate the totals for each category separately.

For question 9:

The marginal frequency for "Set Academic Goals - yes" is 64 + 54 = 118. This represents the total number of individuals who answered "yes" to setting academic goals.

The marginal frequency for "Set Academic Goals - no" is 168 + 142 = 310. This represents the total number of individuals who answered "no" to setting academic goals.

The marginal frequency for "Male" is 64 + 168 = 232. This represents the total number of males.

The marginal frequency for "Female" is 54 + 142 = 196. This represents the total number of females.

Interpretation:

The marginal frequencies provide us with the total counts for each category in a contingency table. In this case, we can see that out of the total sample, 118 individuals set academic goals (regardless of gender), while 310 individuals did not set academic goals. Additionally, there were 232 males and 196 females in the sample.

For question 10:

The marginal frequency for "Cat - yes" is 104 + 186 = 290. This represents the total number of individuals who have cats.

The marginal frequency for "Cat - no" is 208 + 98 = 306. This represents the total number of individuals who do not have cats.

The marginal frequency for "Dog - yes" is 104 + 208 = 312. This represents the total number of individuals who have dogs.

The marginal frequency for "Dog - no" is 186 + 98 = 284. This represents the total number of individuals who do not have dogs.

Interpretation:

The marginal frequencies reveal the total counts for each category in the contingency table. In this case, we can observe that out of the total sample, 290 individuals have cats, while 306 individuals do not have cats. Furthermore, 312 individuals have dogs, while 284 individuals do not have dogs.

The Binomial coefficients, we get:

(2x+5y)^3 = 8x^3 + 60x^2y + 150xy^2 + 125y^3

Therefore, (2x+5y)^3 expands to 8x^3 + 60x^2y + 150xy^2 + 125y^3.

To expand (2x+5y)^3, we can use the Binomial Theorem, which states that:

(a + b)^n = nC0a^n + nC1a^(n-1)b + nC2a^(n-2)b^2 + ... + nCn-1ab^(n-1) + nCn b^n

where nCk represents the binomial coefficient, which is the number of ways to choose k items from a set of n items.

In this case, we have:

a = 2x

b = 5y

n = 3

So, we can apply the Binomial Theorem as follows:

(2x+5y)^3 = 3C0 (2x)^3 + 3C1 (2x)^2(5y) + 3C2 (2x)(5y)^2 + 3C3 (5y)^3

Simplifying each term using the binomial coefficients, we get:

(2x+5y)^3 = 8x^3 + 60x^2y + 150xy^2 + 125y^3

Therefore, (2x+5y)^3 expands to 8x^3 + 60x^2y + 150xy^2 + 125y^3.

The sine of an angle 0 in the third quadrant is -0.5. So the value of cos∅ is -√(3)/2.

In the third quadrant, both sine and cosine are negative. We know that the sine of ∅ is -0.5, so we can use the Pythagorean identity to find the cosine of ∅:

sin²(∅) + cos²(∅) = 1

Substituting -0.5 for sin(∅), we get:

(-0.5)² + cos²(∅) = 1

Simplifying:

0.25 + cos²(∅) = 1

cos²(∅) = 1 - 0.25

cos²(∅) = 0.75

Taking the square root of both sides:

cos(∅) = ±√(0.75)

Since we're in the third quadrant where cosine is negative, we take the negative square root:

cos(∅) = -√(0.75)

Simplifying the square root:

cos(∅) = -√(3/4)

cos(∅) = -√(3)/2

The final equation of the given conic, after rotating the axes through the angle θ = arccos(3/5), is:

x^2 * cos(2θ) + y^2 * cos(2θ) = 2y

The equation of the conic in xy-coordinates when the axes are rotated through the given angle can be determined by using a rotation matrix. Given that the conic is represented by the equation:

x^2 - y^2 = 2y

And the rotation angle is θ = arccos(3/5), we can proceed as follows:

1. Rewrite the given equation in matrix form:

[x, y] * [1  0] * [x]  = [2y]

        [-1 0]   [y]      [0]

2. Define the rotation matrix using the given angle θ:

R(θ) = [cos(θ)  -sin(θ)]

          [sin(θ)   cos(θ)]

3. Apply the rotation matrix to the equation:

[x, y] * R(θ)^T * R(θ) * [x] = [2y]

        [1  0]     [-1 0]   [y]     [0]

[x, y] * R(θ)^T * [1  0] * R(θ) * [x] = [2y]

                              [-1 0]   [y]     [0]

[x, y] * [cos(θ) sin(θ)] * [1  0] * [cos(θ)  -sin(θ)] * [x] = [2y]

        [-sin(θ) cos(θ)]   [-1 0]     [sin(θ)   cos(θ)]   [y]     [0]

Simplifying the expression:

[x * cos(θ) + y * sin(θ)] * [x * cos(θ) - y * sin(θ)] - [x * sin(θ) - y * cos(θ)] * [x * sin(θ) + y * cos(θ)] = 2y

Expanding and rearranging terms:

x^2 * cos^2(θ) - y^2 * sin^2(θ) - x^2 * sin^2(θ) + y^2 * cos^2(θ) = 2y

Combining like terms:

x^2 * (cos^2(θ) - sin^2(θ)) + y^2 * (cos^2(θ) - sin^2(θ)) = 2y

Using the trigonometric identity cos^2(θ) - sin^2(θ) = cos(2θ):

x^2 * cos(2θ) + y^2 * cos(2θ) = 2y

The final equation of the given conic, after rotating the axes through the angle θ = arccos(3/5), is:

The per-unit reactance of the transformer is 0.0444 pu.

To calculate the per-unit reactance of the transformer, we need to use the following formula:

Xpu = X / (Vbas[tex]e^2[/tex] / Sbase)

where X is the reactance in ohms, Vbase is the base voltage in volts, and Sbase is the base power in volt-amperes.

In this case, the rated power of the transformer is 5 kVA, and the rated voltage on the high side is 400V. Therefore, the base power and base voltage are:

Sbase = 5 kVA

Vbase = 400V

The reactance of the transformer referred to the low voltage side is given as 2Ω. To convert this to per-unit, we substitute the values in the formula:
