- A Population of Foxes A breeding group of foxes is introduced into a protected area, and the population growth follws a logistic pattern. After t years, the population of foxes is given by N=37.50.25+0.76t foxes. a. How many foxes were intorduced into the protected area? b. Make a graph of N versus t and explain in words how the populatoin of foxes increases with time. c.

In order to determine the relationship between the Fahrenheit and Kelvin temperature scales, a lab assistant put Fahrenheit and Kelvin thermometers side by side and took readings at various temperatures. The following data were recorded. K = kelvins F = degrees Fahrenheit 200 -99.67 220 -63.67 240 -27.67 260 8.33 280 44.33 300 80.33 a. Show that the temperature F in degrees Fahrenheit is a linear function of the temperature K in kelvins. b. What is the slope of this linear function? Note: Be sure to take into account that the table lists kelvins in jumps of 20 rather than in jumps of 1. c. Find a formula for the linear function. d. Normal body temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. What is that temperature in kelvins? e. If temperature increases by 1 kelvin, by how many degrees Fahrenheit does it increase? If temperature increases by 1 degree Fahrenheit, by how many kelvins does it increase? f. The temperature of 0 kelvins is known as absolute zero. It is not quite accurate to say that all molecular motion ceases at absolute zero, but at that temperature the system has its minimum possible total energy. It is thought that absolute zero cannot be attained experimentally, although temperatures lower than 0.0000001 kelvin have been attained. Find the temperature of absolute zero in degrees Fahrenheit.arrow_forward
- World Crude Oil Production In 1956, M.King Hubbert proposed a model to analyse crude oil production. His model, with updated data, gives world crude oil production as P=254.43e0.042t(1+2.12e0.042t)2 Here P is measured in billions of barrels per year, and t is time, in year, since 2000. a.Make a graph of world crude oil production for 2000 through 2040. b.When does this model predict a peak in world crude oil production? c.What is the maximum crude oil production predicted by this model?arrow_forwardFindingpH hydrogen ion concentration of a sample of each substance is given.

Each year, a car loses 10% of its value. This means that each year the value of a car is 90% of the previous year’s value. If a new car was purchased for $20,000, the value at the end of the first year would be $20000(0.90) and the value of the car after the end of the second year would be $20000(0.90)2. Complete the table shown below. What will be the value of the car at the end of the eighth year? Simplify the expression, to show the value in dollars.arrow_forward
