Answer:
C. Within a few years the population increases dramatically
True. As we can see on the function if we increase the time by 10 units for example the final amount is increasing by a factor of and that represent a dramatically increase.
Step-by-step explanation:
When we have a exponential growth model the general formula is given by:
Since says "growth" the rate of increase r>0, represent the initial amount and A the amount after the time t.
Assuming the possible options for the answer. We analyze one by one
A. Each individual plant grows much larger than usual
False, for this model we assume that all the individuals in the population modeled have similar characteristics, because if the individuals are different we can't use a deterministic model like this one.
B. The population immediately decreases
False. We are assuming that the model is for a growth rate so then is not possible to have a decrease.
C. Within a few years the population increases dramatically
True. As we can see on the function if we increase the time by 10 units for example the final amount is increasing by a factor of and that represent a dramatically increase.
D. The specie's reproductive potential declines
False, we are considering a growth model in which it makes no sense to consider that the potential, population or quantity measured decrease.
The welder needs to cut off 9 3/8 inches from the longer piece.
To determine how much the welder needs to cut off from the longer piece of pipe, we need to find the difference between the lengths of the two pieces.
Given that the longer piece is 28 1/8 inches and the desired length is 18 3/4 inches, we can subtract the desired length from the longer piece's length:
28 1/8 - 18 3/4 = 9 3/8
Therefore, the welder needs to cut off 9 3/8 inches from the longer piece of pipe.

hopefully this helps you and gives you insight in how to solve the problems from now on (:
= $11.8 + (2012-1997)([$11.8-$7.4][1997-1990])
= $11.8 + 5 ($4.4/7)
= $11.8 4/5 + $22/7
= $59/5 + $22/7
= $413/35 + $110/35
= $523/35 or $14 33/35
answer : SALES IN 2012 WOULD BE $14 33/35 BILLION OR $14.9 3/7
A linear model representing retail sales at bookstores from 1990 through 1997 is s(T) = 0.63T + 7.4. The estimated sales at bookstores in 2012 would be approximately $21.46 billion.
To solve this problem, we need to create a linear model. A linear model is a mathematical representation expressed as y = mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
To determine the slope (m), we subtract the ending value of retail sales from the starting value and divide by the number of years. So, subtract $7.4 billion (sales in 1990) from $11.8 billion (sales in 1997) and divide by 7 (the number of years from 1990 to 1997): (11.8 - 7.4) / 7 = 0.63. So, m = 0.63.
The y-intercept (b) is the value of y when x = 0. In this model, this corresponds to the sales in 1990, because x is the number of years since 1990, and 'x = 0' therefore corresponds to the year 1990. So, b = $7.4 billion.
The final linear model for retail sales at bookstores from 1990 through 1997 is s(T) = 0.63T + 7.4.
To estimate the retail sales at bookstores in 2012, we plug T = 22 (because 2012 is 22 years after 1990) into our linear model: s(22) = 0.63*22 + 7.4 ≈ $21.46 billion. So, the estimated retail sales in bookstores in 2012 were about $21.46 billion.

Answer:
51.3°
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Use tan to find angle y
o = 10
a = 8
Therefore angle "y" is 51.3° rounded to the nearest tenth
