Let x = number of years between 1990 and 2000.
Rainbow smelt:
Initial population = 227
Average yearly rate of change = -19.76
The linear function that models the population is
y₁ = 227 - 19.76x
Bloater fish
Initial population = 1052
Average yearly rate of change = -92.57
The linear function that models the population is
y₂ = 1052 - 92.57x
When the two populations are equal, then y₁ = y₂.
That is
227 - 19.76x = 1052 - 92.57x
(92.57 - 19.76)x = 1052 - 227
72.81x = 825
x = 11.33 years
= 11 years, 0.33*12 months
= 11 years, 4 months
Add x to 1990 to obtain the year April 2011.
Answer:
x = 11.33 years.
This occurs in April 2001.
We have to represent the fraction in two different ways.
Let us multiply the numerator and denominator of the given fraction by '2'.
Therefore,
Therefore, is the first way to represent the given fraction.
Now, Let us multiply the numerator and denominator of the given fraction by '3'.
Therefore,
Therefore, is the second way to represent the given fraction.
Therefore, and are the different ways to represent the fraction .
Answer:
16 pieces of candy per bag
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If this was an equation...
(x-3)(x+5) = 0
x = 3, -5
So 3 and -5 are the minimum and the maximums.
So we convert that into an inequality.
-5 <= x <= 3
The answer for this question is D
