The answer to this question would be:
<span>The function f(x) = 9,000(0.95)x represents the situation.
After 2 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 8,120 bees remaining.
</span>
In this problem, there are 9,000 bees and the amount is decreased 5% each year. Decreased 5% would be same as become (100%-5%=)95% each year. Then the function should be like:
f(x)= 9,000 * 95%^ x= 9,000 * 0.95^x
If you put X=2 and X=4 the result would be:
<span>f(2) = 9,000* (0.95)^2= 8122.5 (round up to tenth will be 8120)
</span>f(4) = 9,000* (0.95)^4= 7330.5
Answer:
If each charity has received $375 and there is 4 charities, the equation should look like this...
$375 x 4 = d
If you are looking how much was donated all together, the answer is:
$1500 dollars in total was donated.
Y=600000(1+1.8%)^(x-2000)
So the population in 2012
Y=600,000×(1+0.018)^(2,012−2,000)
Y=743,232
