Question

HELP!!!!
In biology, the function defined by g(x) = (5x)/(2+x) gives the growth rate of a population for x units of available food.
a) What amount of food (in appropriate units) would produce a growth rate of 3 units of growth per unit of food?
b) What is the growth rate if no food is available?

Answer 1

5 * 3 = 15
2 + 3 = 5

g(3) = 15 / 5

g(3) = 3

Answer 2

i dont like biology, sorry :D

Answer 3

calculate g(0) for no food

Answer 4

g(0) = 5(0) / (2 + 0)

g(0) = 2

Answer 5

yay! thanks lilg132, but the answer for b is 0 though

Answer 6

yeah 0/2=0 :D

Answer 7
