A population of 120 beetles increases at an annual rate of 30%. How many beetles will there be in 16 years? Write an expression to represent the equivalent monthly population increase rate.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Expression: [tex]120(1.3)^{16}[/tex]

Beetles after 16 years: 7984 beetles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population increases 30% annually every year on the population size of that year, then we need to use a compound interest formula which would be the following

A = P (1 + r/n) (nt)

A = the future amount

P = the initial amount

r = the annual increase rate (decimal)

n = the number of times that interest/increase is compounded per unit t

t = the number of years

Using the values in the question the expression for this scenario would be the following

120(1 + (0.30 / 1))^(1*16)

[tex]120(1.3)^{16}[/tex]

7984.99

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the relation between the total number of candies (y) and number of bags (x) is,

y = mx + b

Here, b = Extra pieces of candies sitting outside the box.

m = Candies per box

From the question,

x = 4,(Number of bags are 4)

y = 4m + 4

If total number of candies are 36,

36 = 4m + 4

4m = 32

m = 8

Each bag will contain 8 candies.

Therefore, equation representing the relation is,

y = 8x + 4

Now complete the table by substituting the values of x,
