The population of rabbits on an island is growing exponentially. In the year 1995, the population of rabbits was 1000, and by 1999 the population had grown to 1800. Predict the population of rabbits in the year 2003, to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3,240

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the population of rabbits in the year 2003 is shown below:

Given that

In the year 1995, the population of the rabbits was 1000

And, in 1999 the population of the rabbits grown to 1,800

So there is an increase of

= (1800 - 1000) ÷ 1000

= 80%

So for 2003, the population of the rabbits is

= 1800 + (1800 × 0.80)

= 3,240

Answer 2

Given:

The population of rabbits on an island is growing exponentially.

In the year 1995, the population of rabbits was 1000, and by 1999 the population had grown to 1800.

To find:

Expected population of rabbits in the year 2003, to the nearest whole number.

Solution:

The exponential growth model is:

[tex]y=ab^t[/tex]

Where, a is the initial value, b is the growth factor, t is the number of years.

Let y be the population of rabbits t years after 1995.

In the year 1995, the population of rabbits was 1000, it can be written as (0,1000) and by 1999 the population had grown to 1800, it can be written as (4,1800).

For (0,1000),

[tex]1000=ab^0[/tex]

[tex]1000=a(1)[/tex]

[tex]1000=a[/tex]

For (4,1800) and a=1000, we get

[tex]1800=1000b^4[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1800}{1000}=b^4[/tex]

[tex]1.8=b^4[/tex]

[tex](1.8)^{\frac{1}{4}}=b[/tex]

[tex]b\approx 1.1583[/tex]

The required exponential model is:

[tex]y=1000(1.1583)^t[/tex]         ...(i)

in year 2003, the number of years since 1995 is 8.

Putting t=8 in (i), we get

[tex]y=1000(1.1583)^8[/tex]

[tex]y=3240.1748[/tex]

[tex]y\approx 3240[/tex]

Therefore, the population of rabbits in the year 2003 is 3240.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is essentially asking one to find the vertex of the parabola formed by the given equation. One could plot the equation, but it would be far more efficient to complete the square. Completing the square of an equation is a process by which a person converts the equation of a parabola from standard form to vertex form.

The first step in completing the square is to group the quadratic and linear term:

[tex]h(t)=-5t^2 + 10t + 6\\\\h(t) = (-5t^2 + 10t) + 6[/tex]

Now factor out the coefficient of the quadratic term:

[tex]h(t)=-5(t^2 -2t) + 6[/tex]

After doing so, add a constant such that the terms inside the parenthesis form a perfect square, don't forget to balance the equation by adding the inverse of the added constant term:

[tex]h(t) = -5(t^2 -2t) + 6\\\\h(t) = -5(t^2 -2t + 1 -1 ) + 6[/tex]

Now take the balancing term out of the parenthesis:

[tex]\\\\h(t)=-5(t^2 -2t + 1) + 6 + ((-1)(-5))[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]h(t) = -5(t^2 -2t + 1) + 6 + 5\\\\h(t) = -5(t-1)^2 + 11[/tex]

The x-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola is equal to the additive inverse of the numerical part of the quadratic term. The y-coordinate of the vertex is the constant term outside of the parenthesis. Thus, the vertex of the parabola is:

If the sequence 4, 8, 12, 16 continues, what will be the 7th
term?

Answers

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the seventh term in this arithmetic function, you need to find its function; in order to do this, you must first identify the common difference by finding the difference between two consecutive terms:

16 - 12 = 4; the common difference is 4

Now, you need to find the 0th term, which is the 1st term minus the common difference:

4 - 4 = 0

At this point, you can write out the function (where f(n) = [0th term] + [common difference]n:

f(n) = 4n

Finally, you can plug 7 into this function:

f(n) = 4(7)

f(n) = 28, so the 7th term is 28

Which of these statements is true? Sin 18° = cos 72°, sin 55° = cos 55°, sing 72° = cos 18°c both a and c

Answers

Answer:

Sin 18° = cos 72° and sin 72° = cos 18°

Step-by-step explanation:

According to trigonometry identity;

sin Ф = cos(90 - Ф)

for Sin 18° = cos 72

Ф = 18°

Substitute into the expression

sin Ф = cos(90 - Ф)

sin 18 = cos(90 - 18)

Sin 18 = cos 72

Hence the statement id true

For sin 72° = cos 18

Ф = 72°

Substitute into the expression

sin Ф = cos(90 - Ф)

sin 72 = cos(90 - 72)

Sin 72 = cos 18

Hence this statement too is correct

The two correct statements are Sin 18° = cos 72° and sin 72° = cos 18°

On the sixth day (10 - 4), the worm was 2.5mm long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value= 40mm

Present Value= 2.5mm

Number of periods (n)= ?

Growth rate= 100% per day

First, we need to calculate the number of days it will take to grow from 2.5mm (PV) to 40mm (FV):

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)  

n= ln (40 / 2.5) / ln (2)

n= 4

It will take 4 days.

On the sixth day (10 - 4), the worm was 2.5mm long.
