A certain forest covers an area of 5000 km². Suppose that each year this area decreases by 5%. What will the area be after 10 years?
Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest square kilometer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The forest will cover an area of approximately 2994 square kilometers after 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

A forest covers an area of 5000 square kilometers. Each year, the area of the forest decreases by 5%. We want to determine its area after 10 years.

We can write an exponential function to represent the situation. The standard exponential function is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = a(r)^x[/tex]

Where a is the initial value, r is the rate, and x is the time that has passed (in this case in years).

Since the original area is 5000 square kilometers, let a = 5000.

Each year, the area decreases by 5%. In other words, for each subsequent year, the forest's area will be 100% - 5% = 95% = 0.95 of its previous year. Hence, r = 0.95.

Thus, our function is:

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = 5000(0.95)^x[/tex]

Then after 10 years (x = 10), the area will be:

[tex]\displaystyle f(10) = 5000(0.95)^{(10)}= 2993.6846...\approx 2994\text{ km}^2[/tex]

In conclusion, the forest will cover an area of approximately 2994 square kilometers after 10 years.

Which of the following is in the solution set of the inequality -3 > -3t+ 6?
A. -1/3
B. 1/3
1مرايا C. 4
D. -4

Answers

Answer:  C)  4

==========================================================

Explanation:

Let's isolate t

-3 > -3t + 6

-3+3t > 6

3t > 6+3

3t > 9

t > 9/3

t > 3

This means any value can replace t such that it's larger than 3.

Something like t = 1/3 = 0.33 won't work since it's not larger than 3.

But something like t = 4 would work because it makes t > 3 true.

That's why choice C is the final answer.

Let the angle be x

so

tan x = p/b

tan x = 5/9

x = [tex]tan^{-1} (5/9)[/tex]

so, x = 29.054

rounding off to ten

x = 29.1

now

let the another angle be y

so

90+y+29.1 = 180

29.1 + y = 180-90

y = 90-29.1

so, y = 60.9

the missing side is √90 and missing angles are 29.1° and 60.9°

A new car sales person, sold an average of $46,975 per day for the first two days she worked. The next one days she worked, she sold an average of $45,765. How much did she sell on average per day over the entire time she worked?

Answers

Answer:

$46,571.67

Step-by-step explanation:

if your description is right and complete, she sold cars on the first 2 days as average for $46975.

and on the third day for $45765

to calculate the total average we need to know the total amount of sales and then divide it by the observation period length (3 days).

how do we get the total sales ?

we know the average of the first 2 days. we don't need to find the exact value for every day, but we know the exact value for these first 2 days : 2×46975 = $93950

as the average of these 2 days = (day1 + day2)/2

46975 = (day1 + day2)/2

day1 + day2 = 2×46975 = 93950

it is not important what two (day) numbers created 93950. we know that this was the total sum of the first two days. and that is enough.

so, we have in total

$93950 on the first 2 days

$45765 in the third day

-------------

$139715 for all 3 days

the average per day is then

139715 / 3 = $46,571.67

What are RQS and TQS?

Answers

Answer:

m∠RQS = 72°

m∠TQS = 83°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠RQS +m ∠TQS = m∠RQT

The two angles combine to make a larger angle

So

m∠RQS = (4x - 20)

m∠TQS = (3x + 14)

(4x - 20) + (3x + 14) = 155

Group the Xs and the constants

4x + 3x - 20 + 14 = 155

Combine like terms

7x - 6 = 155

Add 6 to both sides

7x = 161

Divide by 7 on both sides

x = 23

Check:

4(23) - 20 + 3(23) + 14 = 155

92 - 20 + 69 + 14 = 155

155 = 155

But we need to find m∠RQS and m∠TQS. So plug in x = 23 to the values.

m∠RQS = 4(23) - 20 = 72°

m∠TQS = 3(23) + 14 = 83°

Checking:

72 + 83 = 155

Jamil buys a video game for 20% off the original price. He pays $36, excluding sales tax. One week later, he sees an advertisement for $10 off the original price. This is the new sales price. Complete the sentence to explain whether Jamil paid more or less than the new sale price, excluding sales tax.

Answers

He would pay more in this point because 20% is more than 10 US dollars

The new price offers price is less than the offer of 20% discount.

Given that,
Jamil buys a video game for 20% off the original price. He pays $36, excluding sales tax. One week later, he sees an advertisement for $10 off the original price. This is the new sales price.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is the ratio of the composition of matter to the overall composition of matter multiplied by 100.

Here,
percentage of the price paid = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8
Let the original price be x,
According to the question,
36 = 0.8 (x)
x = 36/0.8
x = $45
Since the original price is $45,
As of the new price, the price is $10 so the price becomes $35 which is less than a 20% discount.

Thus, the new price offers price is less than the offer of 20% discount.

Write 0.002349 in scientific notation.

Answers

Hi! I'm happy to help!

To solve this, we first need to know what scientific notation is. Scientific notation is a way a number is written. You write it using a number ranging from 1 to <10. Then, you multiply this number by [tex]10^{x}[/tex].

In order to make this number reasonable for scientific notation, you have to move the decimal a certain amount of places. In this case you move it 3 places to the right to make your number 2.349. Since we moved it 3 places to the right our x will be -3. (If we'd moved it 3 places to the left, our x would be positive 3.)

So now, we insert our numbers:

2.349·[tex]10^{-3}[/tex]

You write 0.002349 like 2.349·[tex]10^{-3}[/tex], when it is in scientific notation.
