<h2>Answer:</h2>

The equation i.e. used to denote the population after x years is:

           P(x)=490(1+0.20)^x

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

This problem could be modeled with the help of  a exponential function.

The exponential function is given by:

               P(x)=ab^x

where a is the initial value.

and b=1+r where r is the rate of increase or decrease.

Here the initial population of the animals are given by: 490

i.e. a=490

Also, the rate of increase is: 20%

i.e. r=20%

i.e. r=0.20

Hence, the population function i.e. the population of the animals after x years is:

         P(x)=490(1+0.20)^x

What is the error due to using linear interpolation to estimate the value of sinxsin⁡x at x = \pi/3? your answer should have at
Serhud [2]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • using y = x, the error is about 0.1812
  • using y = (x -π/4 +1)/√2, the error is about 0.02620
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The actual value of sin(π/3) is (√3)/2 ≈ 0.86602540.

If the sine function is approximated by y=x (no error at x = 0), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... x -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... π/3 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.18117215 ≈ 0.1812

You know right away this is a bad approximation, because the approximate value is π/3 ≈ 1.04719755, a value greater than 1. The range of the sine function is [-1, 1] so there will be no values greater than 1.

___

If the sine function is approximated by y=(x+1-π/4)/√2 (no error at x=π/4), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... (x+1-π/4)/√2 -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... (π/12 +1)/√2 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.026201500 ≈ 0.02620

Calculate the expected gain or loss for Stock ABC. Lose $25 Gain $5 Gain $45 Stock ABC 40% | 15% | 45% Stock JKL| 15% | 65% | 20
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$11

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\begin{array}{c|ccc}&$Lose \$25&$Gain \$5&$Gain \$45\\$Stock ABC&40\%&15\%&45\%\end{array}\right

We want to calculate the expected gain or loss of Stock ABC with the probabilities above.

Note that loss is written in negative.

E$xpected Value =$ (-25  \times 40\%)+(5  \times 15\%) + (45  \times  45\%)\\=(-25 \times 0.4)+(5 \times 0.15)+(45 \times 0.45)\\=-10+0.75+20.25\\=\$11

Stock ABC has an expected gain of $11.

Joanne is installing weatherstripping around a 30-in. × 25-in. control box. how much weatherstripping does she need, in inches a
GrogVix [38]
<span>The control box’s dimensions are 30 inches by 25 inches. Therefore, the perimeter of the box is 30 inches + 25 inches + 30 inches + 25 inches = 110 inches. There are 12 inches per foot. 12 goes into 110 nine times, with two inches left over. Therefore, 9 feet and 2 inches of weatherstripping is needed.</span>

Which statements are true of the graph of h(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x minus 4 EndRoot? Check all that apply. The domain of h(
Nastasia [14]

True statements:

The domain of h(x) is the set of all real numbers.

The range of h(x) is the set of all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

The function given in this problem is

h(x)=\sqrt[3]{x-4}

Now let's analyze the statements given:

- The domain of h(x) is the set of all real numbers. --> TRUE. The domain of a function is the set of values allowed for x. Here there is no restriction for the value of x, since the argument of an odd root can have any value (either positive or negative), so the domain of h(x) is the set of all real numbers.

- The range of h(x) is the set of all real numbers. --> TRUE. The range of a function is the set of values that the y can take. In this case, y can take any value: in fact, as x \rightarrow +\infty, then y \rightarrow +\infty, and as x \rightarrow -\infty, then y \rightarrow -\infty, and since there are no points of discontinuity in the function, this means that it can take any value of y.

For all points (x, h(x)), h(x) exists if and only if x – 4 > 0 --> FALSE. As we stated in part 1), the argument of a cubic root can be either positive or negative, so the function is defined also for x - 4 < 0.

The graph of h(x) is a translation of f(x) down 4 units. --> FALSE. The form of f(x) is not given so we can't evaluate this statement.

The graph of h(x) intercepts the x-axis at (4, 0). --> FALSE. In fact, when x=0, the value of the function is

h(0)=\sqrt[3]{0-4}=\sqrt[3]{-4}

which is different from 4.
