Using an exponential function, it is found that it will take 24 years for the current population of 4800 deer to reduce to 600.
What is an exponential function?An exponential function is modeled by:
[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]
In which:
a is the initial value.b is the rate of change, as a decimal.In this problem, considering the initial value of 4800, and that the population halves every 8 years, the equation is given by:
[tex]A(t) = 4800\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{8}}[/tex]
The population will be of 600 when A(t) = 600, hence:
[tex]A(t) = 4800\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{8}}[/tex]
[tex]600 = 4800\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{8}}[/tex]
[tex]\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{8}} = \frac{600}{4800}[/tex]
[tex]\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{8}} = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{t}{8}} = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^3[/tex]
Hence:
t/8 = 3.
t = 24.
It will take 24 years for the current population of 4800 deer to reduce to 600.

A bakery sold a total of 400 cupcakes in a day, and 43% of them were vanilla flavored. how many of the cupcakes sold that day were vanilla flavored?
The number of the cupcakes sold that day that were vanilla flavored is 172.
How do we calculate a number from a percentage?The number of the cupcakes sold that day that were vanilla flavored can be calculated using the following formula:
Number of vanilla flavored cupcakes sold = Total number of cupcakes sold * Percentage that were vanilla flavored .............. (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Number of vanilla flavored cupcakes sold = 400 * 43% = 172

Amelie wants to decorate the outside of the box but not the bottom. It is a 5 in. by 3 in. by 2 rectangular prism. If the beads that she is using cost $0.25 per square inch, how much will she pay for the beads? Her work is shown. surface area = 15 + 15 + 6 + 6 + 10 + 10 = 62 in. 2 cost = 0.25(62) = $15.50 Did she make an error? Yes, she should have only added the area of five of the six faces. Yes, she did not use the correct area formula for a rectangle. Yes, she calculated the cost incorrectly. No, she didn’t make any errors.
Answer:
Yes, she should have only added the area of five of the six faces.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the surface area of a cuboid or box is expressed as
Surface area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Where l, w and h represents length, width and height of the box respectively.
2lw represents the area of the top and the bottom of the box. Since she doesn't want to cover the bottom, it becomes lw. Therefore,
Surface area = 15 + 6 + 6 + 10 + 10 = 47 in².
The cost would be
0.25 × 47 = $11.75
Therefore,
Yes, she should have only added the area of five of the six faces.

To find the length of the chord CE, we solve the question using pythagoras' theorem
What is a chord?A chord is a line segment touching two points in a circle.
What is pythagoras' theorem?Pythagoras' theorem states that in any right angled triangle with sides a, b and c where c is the hypotenuse side, we have that
c² = a² + b²
The required triangle
Now form the diagram the radius of the circle BE forms a right angled triangle with the perpendicular to the chord, BO and the midway between the chord, OE.
BO = BD - OD
= 20 in - 5 in
= 15 in
From pythagoras,
BE² = DE² + BO²
making DE subject of the formula, we have
DE = √(BE² - BO²)
DE = √((20 in)² - (15 in)²)
DE = √(400 in² - 225 in²)
DE = √(175 in²)
DE = 13.23 cm
The length of the chord
Since the chord CE = 2DE,
So, CE = 2 × 13.23 in
= 26.46 in

Suppose that $b$ is a positive integer greater than or equal to $2.$ When $197$ is converted to base $b$, the resulting representation has $4$ digits. What is the number of possible values for $b$
Suppose that b is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. When 197 is converted to base b, the resulting representation has 4 digits. What is the number of possible values for b?
The possible values of b are 4 and 5
How to determine the possible numbers of b?The conditions are given as:
b is at least 2When 197 in base b has 4 digits.So, we start by converting 197 to base 2 and above.
This is done as follows:
197 to base 2
2 | 197
98 R 1
49 R 0
24 R 1
12 R 0
6 R 0
3 R 0
1 R 1
0 R 1
So, we have:
197 = 11000101 in base 2
11000101 has more than 4 digits.
This means that b cannot be 2
Using the above method of conversion, we have:
197 = 21022 in base 3197 = 3011 in base 4197 = 1242 in base 5197 = 525 in base 6197 = 401 in base 7See that as the base increases, the number of digits decreases.
The numbers in base 4 and 5 have 4 digits.
Hence, the possible values of b are 4 and 5

What is a graph?A graph is a way to represent a lot of data in such a visual format that it is easy for the user to understand the complete information in one go. Usually, the line of the graph is a function that follows the graph.
Given a factory-made 424 items in 4 hours at a constant rate. Also, the table is given, therefore, the slope of the line can be written as,
m = (400-300)/(4-3) = 100
Therefore, the equation can be written as y=100x+C
now, substituting the point we will get,
424 = 100(4) + C
424 - 400 = C
C = 24

Answer:
8x+19=9x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(8x + 19) = (9x + 9)
Reorder the terms:
(19 + 8x) = (9x + 9)
Remove parenthesis around (19 + 8x)
19 + 8x = (9x + 9)
Reorder the terms:
19 + 8x = (9 + 9x)
Remove parenthesis around (9 + 9x)
19 + 8x = 9 + 9x
Solving
19 + 8x = 9 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
19 + 8x + -9x = 9 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 8x + -9x = -1x
19 + -1x = 9 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
19 + -1x = 9 + 0
19 + -1x = 9
Add '-19' to each side of the equation.
19 + -19 + -1x = 9 + -19
Combine like terms: 19 + -19 = 0
0 + -1x = 9 + -19
-1x = 9 + -19
Combine like terms: 9 + -19 = -10
-1x = -10
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 10
Simplifying
