A population of rabbits on a farm grows by 12% each year. Assume that this increase occurs as new baby rabbits at the beginning of each new year. Define a sequence {rn} describing the rabbit population at the beginning of each year. Suppose that the sequence starts with r1 = 30. for the first year. As the sequence is a model for the actual population, we accept fractional numbers in the sequence. (a) Determine r12. Determine a formula for rn, for general n. (b) If each rabbit consumes 10 pounds of rabbit food each year, then how much rabbit food is consumed during the 10th year? How much rabbit food is consumed in total for the 1st through 10th years? Express this as a summation and as an exact number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) r₁₂ = 104.36

In general, rₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

b)

- rabbit food consumed during the 10th year is approximately 832 pounds

- rabbit food consumed in total for the 1st through 10th years is approximately 5265 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

r1 = 30 and a farm grows by 12%

a = 30 and the common ratio r = 1.12

now

n           r

1        30.00

2       33.60

3       37.63

4       42.15

5       47.21

6       52.87

7       59.21

8       66.32

9       74.28

10      83.19

11       93.18

12      104.36

Therefore r₁₂ = 104.36

In general, rₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

b)

if each rabbit consume 10 lbs of rabbit food each year

n           r                food consumed(lbs)

1        30.00               300

2       33.60               336

3       37.63                376

4       42.15                422

5       47.21                472

6       52.87               529

7       59.21                592

8       66.32               663

9       74.28               743

10      83.19                832

total                          5265

Therefore, the rabbit food consumed during the 10th year is approximately 832 pounds

And the rabbit food consumed in total for the 1st through 10th years is approximately 5265 pounds

A single chocolate muffin has 260 calories, and a blueberry muffin has 240 calories. Both muffins can be bought at the local cafe. Jane goes to the local cafe to have breakfast. Their fruit platter has 210 calories and the french toast is 350 calories. A glass of orange juice is 40 calories and milk is 102 calories. The hashbrowns and eggs are twice the calories of the fruit platter. If Jane has half a blueberry muffin with a whole fruit platter and a third of a glass of milk for breakfast, how many calories did she consume during breakfast?

Answers

Answer:

364 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 of 240=120 calories

fruit platter =210 calories

1/3 of 102=34

120+210+34=364 calories

The amount of calories she consumes during breakfast is 364 calories.

We know that a Parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

We also know that the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.

Given

m∠DABm∠BCD

From the figure:

It is clear that m∠DAB is the opposite angle of m∠BCD.

A 30 -foot ladder is leaning against a building. The base of the ladder is 18 feet from the side of the building. How high does the ladder reach along the side of the building?

Answers

Answer:  24 feet

========================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. We have a right triangle with known horizontal leg 18, and unknown vertical leg x. The hypotenuse is 30.

Let a = x, b = 18, c = 30.

Apply the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 18^2 = 30^2

x^2 + 324 = 900

x^2 = 900-324

x^2 = 576

x = sqrt(576)

x = 24

The top of the ladder reaches 24 feet high.

A ski are offers two vacation package plans. Plan A gives one person four nights lodging and three dinners for $467. Plan B gives one person five nights lodging and four dinners for $593. Assuming that the lodging and dinner costs per night are the same for both plans, how much does one dinner cost?

Answers

Answer:

$37

Step-by-step explanation:

Plan A: 4n + 3d = 467

Plan B: 5n + 4d = 593

4n + 3d = 467

4n = 467 - 3d

4n/4 = 467/4 - 3d/4

n = 116.75 - 3/4d

5n + 4d = 593

5(116.75 - 3/4d) + 4d = 593

583.75 - 3.75d + 4d = 593

0.25d = 593 - 583.75

0.25d = 9.25

0.25d/0.25 = 9.25/0.25

d = 37

Answer:

B= 9/2 Hope this helped

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4(b−3)=6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(b−3)=6

(4)(b)+(4)(−3)=6(Distribute)

4b+−12=6

4b−12=6

Step 2: Add 12 to both sides.

4b−12+12=6+12

4b=18

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4

The value of b in the expression 4(b - 3) = 6 is 4.

What is a numerical expression?

A numerical expression is a mathematical statement written in the form of numbers and unknown variables. We can form numerical expressions from statements.

Given, 4(b - 3) = 6 and we have to solve for b.

4(b - 3) = 6.

4b - 12 = 6.                              (distributive law a(b+c) = ab + ac).

4b = 6 + 12.           (constants change sign when moved to the other sides).

4b = 16.

b = 16/4.

b = 4.

B. 4 and 6

D. 0, 4, and 6​

Answers

It’s B. 4 and 6
If I’m not wrong

The zeroes of any function are where the function touches or passes through the x-axis.

To find these zeroes, we can factor, and set each part equal to 0.

y = (x - 4)(x^2 - 12x + 36)

It looks like some of the factoring was already done for us! All we have to do is factor the quadratic. To do so, we need two numbers that multiply to equal (a * c) and add up to b. In this case those two numbers are -6 and -6.

y = (x - 4)(x - 6)(x - 6)

Finally, set each part equal to 0!

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

x - 6 = 0

x = 6

x - 6 = 0

x = 6

Therefore, the zeroes of the function are 4 and 6, option B.

$14670

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of the house = $326000

Commission rate of the agency = 4.5%

Commission amount earned by the agency = 326000 × 0.045

                                                                        = $14670

Commission rate of the agent = 20% of commission earned by the agency

= [tex]\frac{20}{100}\times 14670[/tex]

Therefore, agency made $14670 on the house.

They took a random sample of 600 county residents and found that the proportion who wanted to change the law was 33% with a margin of error of +/- 4% (with 95% confidence). This implies:_____

a. If we took another sample of 600 residents the sample proportion would definitely be between 29% and 37%.
b. If we take many other samples from this population 95% of them will have a sample proportion that is between 29% and 37%.
c. We can not conclude anything about the population parameter since this is only a sample.

Answers

Answer:

The first piece is 5 inches long, while the second is 15 inches and the third one is 20 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the length of the 3 pieces, knowing that the total of the board is 40 inches, and that the second measures 3 times more than the first and the third measures 4 times more than the first, the following equation must be performed:

X + 3X + 4X = 40

8X = 40

X = 40/8

X = 5

Therefore, the first piece is 5 inches long, while the second is 15 inches and the third 20 inches.
