A farmer estimates that he has 9,000 bees producing honey on his farm. The farmer becomes concerned when he realizes the populat

ion of bees seems to be decreasing steadily at a rate of 5% per year. If the number of bees in the population after x years is represented by f(x), which statements about the situation are true? Check all that apply. The function f(x) = 9,000(1.05)x represents the situation. 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. After 4 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 1,800 bees remaining. The domain values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole numbers. The range values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole numbers.

The function f(x)=9,000(0.95)x represents the situation.

After years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 8,120 bees remaining.

The range value, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole numbers.

Analysis to obtain the function that models the polulaiton ob bees:

1) First year 9,000 bees

2) Second year: decrease 5% => 9,000 - 0.05* 9,000 = 9,000 * (1 - 0.05) = 9,000 * 0.95

3) Every year the population decreases 5% => 9,000 * 0.95)^ (number of years)

4) if you call x the number of years, and f(x) the function that represents the number of bees, then: f(x) = 9,000 (0.95)^ x.

Analysis of the statements:

<span>1) The function f(x) = 9,000(1.05)x represents the situation.

FALSE: WE DETERMINED IT IS f(x) = 9,000 (0.95)^x

2) The function f(x) = 9,000(0.95)x represents the situation.

TRUE: THAT IS WHAT WE OBTAINED AS CONCLUSION OF THE PREVIOUS ANALYSIS.

3) After 2 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 8,120 bees remaining.

Do the math:

f(2) = 9,000 * (0.95)^2 = 9,000 * 0,9025 = 8,122

So, the statement is TRUE

4) After 4 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 1,800 bees remaining.

f(4) = 9,000 * (0.95)^4 = 9,000 * 0.81450625 = 7,330

So, the statement is FALSE

5) The domain values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole numbers.

FALSE: THE DOMAIN VALUES ARE ALL NON NEGATIVE REAL VALUES. FOR EXAMPLE THE FUNCTION IS WELL DEFINED FOR X = 5 AND HALF

6) The range values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole numbers.

TRUE: THERE CANNOT BE FRACTIONS OF BEES

Drew burned 1,800 calories Friday playing 1 hour of basketball and canoeing for 2 hours. On Saturday, he spent 2 hours playing b
V125BC [204]

Answer:

He burnt 1000 calories per hour when playing basketball.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be calories burned playing basketball, and C calories burned canoing.

1800 = B + 2C

3200 = 2B + 3C

From 1st equatipn, we get that B = 1800 - 2C

Replacing into the 2nd equation, we have:

3200 = 2(1800-2C) + 3C

3200 = 3600 - 4C + 3C

3200 = 3600 - 1C

C = 3600 - 3200

C = 400

Knowing C, we find B.

B = 1800 - 2C = 1800 - 2*400 = 1800 - 800 = 1000 calories.

If ABCD is a square and AB = 10, what is the measure of CE to the nearest hundredth?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

AC=14.14\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>The correct question is </u></em>

If ABCD is a square and AB = 10, what is the measure of AC? (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

All four sides of the square are congruent and all four interior angles are equal to 90°.

so

AB=BC=CD=AD

In the right triangle ACD

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

AC^2=CD^2+AD^2

we have that

CD=AD=AB=10\ units

substitute the given value

AC^2=10^2+10^2

AC^2=200

AC=\sqrt{200}\ units

AC=14.14\ units

A rectangular block measures 3 cm x 4 cm x 3 cm how much water would it displace?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

36c^3m^3x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. you first multiply 3 cm by 4 cm by 3 cm to get 36 cm.
  2. its mass in air and its effective mass when submerged in water (density = 1 gram per cubic centimeter).
  3. 1.0 g/cm3
  4. then you get the answer 36c^3m^3x^2

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of the function f(x,y)=2x2−4x+y2−4y+1 on the closed triangular plate bounded by t
marusya05 [52]

First check for the critical points of <em>f</em> by checking where the first-order derivatives vanish.

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=4x-4=0\implies x=1

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=2y-4=0\implies y=2

Notice how the point (1, 2) lies on the line <em>y</em> = 2<em>x</em> ; at this point, we get a value of <em>f</em>(1, 2) = -5 (MIN).

Next, check the points where the boundary lines intersect, which occurs at the points (0, 0), (0, 2), and (1, 2). We already checked the last one. We find <em>f</em>(0, 0) = 1 (MAX) and <em>f</em>(0, 2) = -3.

Now check on the boundary lines themselves. If <em>x</em> = 0, then

f(0,y)=y^2-4y+1=(y-2)^2-3

which has a maximum value of -3 when <em>y</em> = 2 (so we get the same critical point as before).

If <em>y</em> = 2, then

f(x, 2)=2x^2-4x-3=2(x-1)^2-5

with a maximum of -5 when <em>x</em> = 1.

If <em>y</em> = 2<em>x</em>, then

f(x,2x)=6x^2-12x+1=6(x-1)^2-5

with the same maximum of -5 when <em>x</em> = 1.
