Suppose 18 blackberry plants started growing in a yard. Absent constraint, the blackberry plants will spread by 85% a month. If the yard can only sustain 100 plants, use a logistic growth model to estimate the number of plants after 3 months.
Answer
The estimated number of plants after 3 months using the logistic model = 70 blackberry plants
Explanation
If a population is growing in a constrained environment with carrying capacity K, and absent constraint would grow exponentially with growth rate r, then the population behavior can be described by the logistic growth model:
[tex]P_n=P_{n-1}+r(1-\frac{P_{n-1}}{K})P_{n-1}[/tex]From the question,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P_0=18,r=85\%=0.85,K=100 \\ \\ So, \\ \\ P_n=P_{n-1}=+0.85(1-\frac{P_{n-1}}{100})P_{n-1} \end{gathered}[/tex]After the first month,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P_{n-1}=P_0=18 \\ \\ \therefore P_1=P_0+0.85(1-\frac{P_0}{100})P_0 \\ \\ P_1=18+0.85(1-\frac{18}{100})18 \\ \\ P_1=18+0.85(1-0.18)18=18+0.85\times0.82\times18 \\ \\ P_1=18+12.546 \\ \\ P_1=30.546\text{ }plants \end{gathered}[/tex]After the second month,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P_1=30.546 \\ \\ \therefore P_2=P_1+0.85(1-\frac{P_1}{100})P_1 \\ \\ P_2=30.546+0.85(1-\frac{30.546}{100})30.546 \\ \\ P_2=30.546+0.85(1-0.30546)30.546=30.546+0.85\times0.69454\times30.546 \\ \\ P_2=30.546+18.033 \\ \\ P_2=48.579\text{ }plants \end{gathered}[/tex]So after 3 months,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P_2=48.579 \\ \\ \therefore P_3=P_2+0.85(1-\frac{P_2}{100})P_2 \\ \\ P_3=48.579+0.85(1-\frac{48.579}{100})48.579 \\ \\ P_3=48.579+0.85(1-0.48579)48.579=48.5796+0.85\times0.5142\times48.579 \\ \\ P_3=48.579+21.232 \\ \\ P_3=69.811\text{ }plants \\ \\ P_3\approx70\text{ }blackberry\text{ }plants \end{gathered}[/tex]The estimated number of plants after 3 months using the logistic model = 70 blackberry plants.
3,400 mL. 34 L I need help which one is bigger
Answer: 34L is bigger than 3400mL
Given data
3, 400 mL and 34L
Firstly, we need to convert mL to L for unit consistency
1000mL = 1L
3, 400Ml = xL
Cross multiply
1000 * x = 1 x 3400
1000x = 3400
Divide both sides by 1000
1000x / 1000 = 3400/ 1000
x = 3.4 L
Therefore, 3400mL = 3.4L
34L is bigger than 3400mL
The figure below shows a circular lawn. It’s diameter is 72 ft.a.Use 3.14 for n in your calculations,and do not round your answer.Make sure to include the correct units.B.Which measure would be used in finding the amount of fertilizer needed? C.Which measure would be used in finding the amount of tape needed?
Answers:
a) Area = 4069.44 ft²
Circumference = 226.08 ft
b) Area
c) Circumference
Explanation:
The area of the circular lawn can be calculated as:
[tex]\text{Area}=\pi\cdot r^2[/tex]Where π is 3.14 and r is the radius of the circular lawn.
The radius is half the diameter, so the radius is equal to:
[tex]r=\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2}=\frac{72\text{ ft}}{2}=36\text{ ft}[/tex]Then, the area of the lawn is equal to:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Area = 3.14}\cdot(36ft)^2 \\ \text{Area}=3.14(1296ft^2) \\ \text{Area}=4069.44ft^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]On the other hand, the circumference of the lawn can be calculated as:
[tex]\text{Circumference = 2}\cdot\pi\cdot r[/tex]So, the circumference is equal to:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Circumference = 2}\cdot\text{(3.14)}\cdot(36\text{ ft)} \\ \text{Circumference = }226.08\text{ ft} \end{gathered}[/tex]Finally, the fertilizer is applied to the region, so the measure that you would use to find the amount of fertilizer is the area.
In the same way, to surround the lawn, the measure that would be used to find the amount of tape is the circumference.
So, the answers are:
a) Area = 4069.44 ft²
Circumference = 226.08 ft
b) Area
c) Circumference

We will have the following:
First, we determine the slope of the linear relationship:
[tex]m=\frac{320-380}{2.75-2.5}\Rightarrow m=-240[/tex]a) Now, using this information and one point (2.50, 380) we will replace in the general equation for a linear function, that is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} N(p)-y_1=m(p-x_1)\Rightarrow N(p)-380=-240(p-2.5) \\ \\ \Rightarrow N(p)-380=-240p+600 \\ \\ \Rightarrow N(p)=-240p+980 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the equation is:
[tex]N(p)=-240p+980[/tex]b) We determine the revenue function as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} R(p)=pN(p)\Rightarrow R(p)=p(-240p+980) \\ \\ \Rightarrow R(p)=-240p^2+980p \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the equation of revenue is:
[tex]R(p)=-240p^2+980p[/tex]c) We determine the critical points of the revenue:
[tex]\begin{gathered} R^{\prime}(p)=-480p+980=0\Rightarrow480p=980 \\ \\ \Rightarrow p=\frac{49}{24}\Rightarrow p\approx2.04 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the price that maximizes revenue is approximately $2.04.
The maximum revenue will be:
[tex]\begin{gathered} R(2.04)=-240(2.04)^2+980(2.04)\Rightarrow R(2.04)=1000.416... \\ \\ \Rightarrow R(2.04)\approx1000.42 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the maximum revenue is approximately $1000.42.

A flagpole 3m tall casts a shadow5m long at the same time a nearby hill casts a shadow62m long. How Tall is the hill.
Explanation:
We are given information about the height of a flagpole and its shadow, and we also have information about the shadow of a hill.
This information is represented in the following diagram:
Where the symbol '?' represents what we are trying to find:
How tall is the hill
We will call this h for reference:
Since these shadows are happening at the same time, the ratio between these values must be the same, this is to say that
3/5 must be equal to h/62:
[tex]\frac{3}{5}=\frac{h}{62}[/tex]From this equation, we solve to find h:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{3}{5}\times62=h \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Solving the operations the result is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.6\times62=h \\ \downarrow \\ 37.2=h \end{gathered}[/tex]The hill is 37.2 m tall.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of a line passingthrough the given point and parallel to the given line.3. (-3, -1);2y- 3x= 8
It's required to find the equation of a line that passes through (-3, -1) and is parallel to the line 2y - 3x = 8.
Solving for y:
[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x+4[/tex]The slope of this line is 3/2 and the required line must have the same slope because they are parallel.
The point-slope form of a line passing through the point (h, k) and slope m is:
y = m(x - h) + k
Substituting:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=\frac{3}{2}(x+3)-1 \\ Operate. \\ y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{9}{2}-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Simplifying, the required line is:
[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{7}{2}[/tex]what is the solution to the equation below? (round your answer to two decimal places.) 3•6^x= 15.57
Simplify the given expression as shown below
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3*6^x=15.57 \\ \Rightarrow6^x=\frac{15.57}{3}=5.19 \\ \Rightarrow xln(6)=ln(5.19) \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow x=\frac{ln(5.19)}{ln(6)}\approx0.92[/tex]Thus, the answer is x=0.92, option D.897 mL to liters ? L
We have to convert 897 mL to L.
We have to take into account the following equivalency between the two units:
[tex]1L=1000mL[/tex]If we write this as a unit factor, we have:
[tex]\frac{1L}{1000mL}=1[/tex]So we can use this factor to multiply the quantity and change the units without changing the actual measure:
[tex]897mL\cdot(\frac{1L}{1000mL})=\frac{897}{1000}L=0.897L[/tex]NOTE: this unit factors can be used to change multiple units in the same operation.
Answer: 0.897 liters

-7(x - 2) = 38 - 3x
We need to solve the following expression:
[tex]-7(x-2)=38-3x[/tex]The first step to solve this problem is to apply the distributive property on the left side of the equation. This is given by the sum of the products. We have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -7x-2\cdot(-7)=38-3x \\ -7x+14=38-3x \end{gathered}[/tex]We need to change the terms that have "x" from the right to the left. To do that we need to add "3x" on both sides.
[tex]\begin{gathered} -7x+14+3x=38-3x+3x \\ -7x+3x+14=38 \\ -4x+14=38 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then we need to subtract "14" on both sides to isolate the term with x on the left. We have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -4x+14-14=38-14 \\ -4x=24 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then we need to divide both sides by "-4".
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{24}{-4} \\ x=-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]The value of "x" that solves this equation is -6.

EXPLANATION
Given the system of equations:
(1) y = 2x/3 - 2
(2) y = -x +3
Substitute y= -x+3
-x + 3 = 2x/3 - 2
Isolate x for -x+3 = 2x/3 - 2
Subtract 3 from both sides:
-x + 3 - 3 = 2x/3 -2 - 3
Simplify:
-x = 2x/3 -5
Subtract 2x/3 from both sides:
-x - 2x/3 = 2x/3 - 5 -2x/3
Simplify:
-5x/3 = -5
Multiply both sides by 3:
3(-5x/3) = 3(-5)
Simplify:
-5x = -15
Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5 = -15/-5
Simplify:
x = 3
Then, for y = -x + 3
Substitute x = 3
y = -3 + 3
Simplify:
y = 0
The solutions to the system of equations are:

Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point-slope form and in slope-intercept form.Passing through (5,3) with x-intercept 6Write an equation for the line in point-slope form.
In general, the equations of a line in point-slope form and slope-intercept form are:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\ y=mx+b \end{gathered}[/tex]respectively. Where m is the slope of the line, b is a constant, and (x_1, y_1) is a point on the line.
Thus, the point-slope form of the line described by the problem is:
[tex]y-3=m(x-5)[/tex]We simply need to calculate the slope of the line. For that, we simply require 2 points, we already have (5, 3) and, since the x-intercept is 6, we can deduce that the line goes through (0,6).
Therefore, the slope is:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{6-3}{0-5}=-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]Then, the solution is:

Where are you most likely to build up enough static charge to receive a shock?
The correct answer is option C on a nylon carpet in a dry area
Explanation:
As nylon is a good conductor of electricity, the static electricity accumulatedin the body does ntot flow to the ground. Also, when we touch a metal object directly connected to the ground, a difference in electric charges creates a static electric discharge.iAs a reult ,we receive a shock.
the Venn diagram below models the possibility of three events a b and c the probabilities for each event or given by the ratio of the area of the event to the total area of 72 for example event C is read-only so for the probability that event C,you haveP(C)=area Red/total area =18/12×6=18/72=1/4=0.25are A&B dependent or independent events use conditional probability to support your conclusion
The events A and B are dependent events. This is because unlike the red area, event A means green given that blue has already occured. Event A includes blue and green and then event B includes green and yellow. Therefore event B cannot take place unless event A (which includes green area) has already taken place. Same goes for event A, it cannot take place unless event B has occured because the green area occurs in event B. Both events are dependent events. The result of one will influence the result of the other on.
