Threatened monarch butterflies are monitored by measuring the area occupied by overwintering butterflies in Mexico. According to

data collected by World Wildlife Fund Mexico, monarch butterflies occupied 1.13 hectares one recent winter, and 4.01 hectares the following winter (one year later)1. If the population is growing geometrically and grows at the same rate, how much area should the overwintering butterflies occupy one year after that

Answer:

14.2 hectares

Step-by-step explanation:

Fund Mexico, monarch butterflies occupied 1.13 hectares one recent winter, and 4.01 hectares the following winter (one year later)

The formula of Geometric growth

(Pt/ Po)^1/t

Where Pt = Size after t years = 4.01 hectares

Po = Initial size = 1.13

t = times = 1

=( 4.01/1.13 )^1/1

= 3.5486725664

Hence, Geometric growth rate = 3.5486725664.

It's size in hectares after another 1 year = Current size in hectares × Geometric growth rate

= 4.01 ×3.5486725664

= 14.230176991 hectares

≈ 14.2

Using the power series methods solve the 1st order Lane-Emden Equation:
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

xy = 2y + xy = 0

Hence, 2y + xy = 0 ---------(1)

Differentiating equation (1) n times by Leibnitz theorem, gives:

2y(n) + xy(n) + ny(n - 1) = 0

Let x = 0: 2y(n) + ny(n - 1) = 0

2y(n) = -ny(n - 1)

∴ y(n) = -ny(n - 1)/2 for n ≥ 1

For n = 1: y = 0

For n = 2: y(1) = -y

For n = 3: -3y(2)/2

For n = 4: -2y(3)

A tank contains 8000 L of pure water. Brine that contains 35 g of salt per liter of water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 2
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The concentration of salt in the tank approaches 35 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{L},

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provide in the question:

Water contained in the tank = 8000 L

Salt per litre contained in Brine = 35 g/L

Rate of pumping water into the tank = 25 L/min

Concentration of salt \lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} C(t)=\lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{35 t}{320+t}

Now,

Dividing both numerator and denominator by t, we have

\lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{\frac{1}{t} 35 t}{\frac{1}{t}(320+t)}=\lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{35}{\frac{320}{t}+1}=35

Here,

The concentration of salt in the tank approaches 35 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{L},

an employee adds 160 fluid ounces of chemical to a feature that holds 120,000 gallons of water. did the employee add yhe correct
Hitman42 [59]
We are given a volume of 160 fluid ounces of chemical which is added to a container that holds 120,000 gallons of water. Assuming that the chemical has the same density as water, we just need to convert 120,000 gallons to ounces.

A conversion factor is taken from literature, 1 gallon is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces. So 160 fluid ounces is only 1.25 gallons, thus occupying minimal space in the container. The employee could add more of the chemical in the container. He can actually add 15360000 fluid ounces in total.
