Response:

15 weeks

$270

Detailed breakdown:

60+14x=120+10x

4x=60

x=15 weeks

total= 60+14*15= $270

Biologists stocked a lake with 240 fish and estimated the carrying capacity (the maximal population for the fish of that species
Inessa [12092]

Answer:

2.30 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The fish population increased threefold in the first year, resulting in 240 * 3 = 720 fish.

(a) The logistic equation can be represented as follows

P = P_0e^{kt}

where P0 = 240 denotes the initial fish count; substituting P = 720 and t = 1 allows us to determine the constant k

720 = 240e^{1k}

e^k = 3

k = ln3 = 1.1

b) By applying the formula below

P = P_0e^{kt}

with P set to 3000, P0 as 240, and k equal to 1.1, we can compute the duration needed for the population to reach 3000 fish

3000 = 240e^{1.1t}

12.5 = e^{1.1t}

1.1t = ln12.5 = 2.53

t = 2.30 years

CRITICAL THINKING A local zoo employs 36 people to take care of the animals each day. At most, 24 of the employees work full tim
lawyer [12081]
We consider all workers as either full-time or part-time. 36 = 24 + 12 If there are 24 or fewer full-time workers, there must be at least 12 part-time workers. (This conclusion is based on the understanding of sums.) You can formulate the inequality in two steps. First, present and resolve an equation for full-time workers in relation to part-time workers. Then, apply the specified limit on full-time workers. This results in an inequality that can be solved for part-time workers. Let f and p represent full-time and part-time positions, respectively. f + p = 36... given f = 36 - p... subtract p to express f in terms of p. f ≤ 24......... given (36 - p) ≤ 24.... substitute for f. This gives your inequality in terms of p. 36 - 24 ≤ p.... rearranging gives p ≥ 12........ this is the solution to the inequality

If y varies directly as x, and y is 400 when x is r and y is r when x is 4, what is the numeric constant of variation in this
Leona [12049]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

If there’s a direct correlation between variables x and y, it can be expressed as

y = kx,

where y is the dependent variable

x is the independent variable

k signifies the constant of variation

_____________________________

For the first scenario

y = 400

x = r

using y = kx, we can derive the relation:

400 = kr

To find k here:

k = 400/r

For the second scenario

y = r

x = 4

again using y = kx, the relationship is given by:

r = 4k

Solving for k:

k = r/4

Since both conditions provide the same equation, k will have the same value in both cases.

Thus, we conclude:

400/r = r/4

=> 400*4 = r*r

=> 1600 = r^2

\sqrt{r^{2} } = \sqrt{1600} \\r = 40

Hence, r is calculated to be 40.

Thus, k = r/4 = 40/4 = 10.

The constant of variation is confirmed to be 10, which is the correct answer.

Verification:

k = 400/r = 400/40 = 10

What is the value of y in the formula shown when x = 4/5?
Leona [12049]
4(4/5) + √(4/5) + 0.2 - 5(4/5)

= 16/5 + (2√5/5) + (1/5) - 4

= (16 + 2√5 + 1 - 20)/5

= (2√5 - 3)/5 or 0.29442719
