20 giraffes were introduced to a certain safari and it is expected to double its population every 5 years. How many giraffes will exist after 2 years? How long it would take to increase their population to 60?


Answers

Answer 1

It would take 7.9 years to increase their population to 60.

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

where a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.

Let y represent the number of giraffes after x years.

From the question:

a = 20, b = 2, hence

[tex]y=20(2)^\frac{x}{5} \\\\for\ x=2:\\\\y=20(2)^\frac{2}{5} =26\\\\For\ y=60:\\\\60=20(2)^\frac{x}{5} \\\\2^\frac{x}{5} =3\\\\x=7.9\ years[/tex]

It would take 7.9 years to increase their population to 60.

x²- 8x-9=0 i need some help over here

Answers

Factorise the equation first of all.

The easiest way to do this is to find two number that add to make the middle (-8) and multiply to make the last number (-9)

Two numbers with this property are -9 and 1

So when you factorise, your equation becomes (x-9)(x+1) = 0

From these you can conclude that for the equation to be equal to 0, either

x-9= 0
So x = 9

Or
x+1 = 0
And
x= -1

Answer:

(x+1)(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Break the equation: x²- 8x-9=0 into groups:

([tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x)+(-9x-9)

Factor X out of [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x:    x(x+1)

Then Facor -9 out of (-9x-9):  -9(x-1)

This means that you can simplify these 2 equations: (x-9) & (x+1)

So your answer is: (x+1)(x-9)

Answers

Hey there! :-)

First, let's find the slope of the line.

We can do that by using this formula:

Slope=Rise/Run

Where

Rise=how many units we move up

Run=how many units we move left or right.

We move 5 units up and 8 units to the right.

Therefore, the slope is 5/8.

The y-intercept (where the line touches the graph) is -9/8.=

Therefore, the equation of the line is y=5/8x-9/8.

Hope this helps you daughter. Use the comment section to clarify any doubts.

Answer:

a - y=5/8x - 9/8

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly, work out the gradient between those two coordinates

[tex]gradient = \frac{change \: in \: y}{change \: in \: x} [/tex]

[tex]gradient \: = \frac{ - 3 - 2}{ - 3 - 5} = \frac{ - 5}{ - 8} = \frac{5}{8} [/tex]

now, use formula y=mx+c where y is the y coordinate, m is the gradient, x is the x coordinate and c is the y intercept

use any of the two coordinates in the graph. I'll use (5,2)

[tex]y = mx + c[/tex]

[tex]2 = \frac{5}{8} (5) + c[/tex]

[tex]2 = \frac{25}{8} + c[/tex]

[tex]therefore \: c \: is \: - \frac{9}{8} from \: doing \: 2 - \frac{25}{8} [/tex]

now we have the gradient and y intercept

so the equation is

[tex]y = \frac{5}{8} x - \frac{9}{8} [/tex]

The coordinates for the dilation of a triangle is (3 12), (12.15), and (6.0).

If the coordinate (x, y) is dilated by a scale factor of k, the resulting coordinate will be at (kx, ky)

Given the coordinate of the triangle (1 4). (4.5), and (2.0), if this coordinate is dilated by a factor of 3, the resulting coordinates will be at (3 12), (12.15), and (6.0).

Hence the coordinates for the dilation of a triangle is (3 12), (12.15), and (6.0).

Find the quotient 12÷3/8

Answers

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

To make it a fraction form answer, you multiply the whole number by the denominator and make the result the new numerator. The old numerator becomes the new denominator

 

Thus, the answer to 12 divided by 3/8 in fraction form is:

96 /3

To make the answer to 12 divided by 3/8 in decimal form, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator from the fraction answer above:

96 / 3 = 32

The answer is rounded to the nearest two decimal points if necessary.

96/3 can be simplified to 32/1.

32/1 is an improper fraction and should be written as 32.
