OMG IF I DONT GET HELP!!!! AGHHHH

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Iris has been studying an invasive population of snails. This particular snail has no local predators, so the population grows wildly. She has observed that the population follows an exponential rate of growth for fifteen years. 1.Create your own exponential function, f(x), which models the snail population. You will need to identify the principal population of the snails and the rate of growth each year. Explain to Iris how your function shows the principal population and the rate of growth, in complete sentences. 2.A local snail population grows according to the function g(x) = 200(1.03)2x. Demonstrate the steps to convert g(x) into an equivalent function with only x as the exponent. Then, explain to Iris how the key features of this local snail population compares to the key features of the invasive population. 3.Iris wants to graph the invasive snail population to show the city council. Justify what the appropriate domain and range would be for the function f(x), what the y-intercept would be, and if the function is increasing or decreasing. 4.In five years, a garden festival plans on using the park where Iris has been studying the invasive snails. Explain to the garden festival committee how to find the average rate of change for the snail population between years 2 and 5. Describe what this average rate of change represents

This is so crazy I did it and turned it in but got a horrible grade so im doing it again and I need some serious help!!!

@SolomonZelman

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah, I did this in Module 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg do you think you can help me? @superdude123

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you taking the algebra course right now? Can you help me with this? @superdude123

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyone aghhh @KlOwNlOvE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

r u able to help @KlOwNlOvE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont really understand but i would put 15x for the first one because they gave you that the snail population has been growing for the past 15 years and you neeed to figure out what the population is now so x would be how many are produced per year

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@SolomonZelman @pgpilot326 can one of you help dani?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its like a f(x)=p(m)^x formula with exponential functions and models @KlOwNlOvE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm idk then mate kinda confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@thomaster can you help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol are you Australian haha any way its okay someone will help eventually grrrr @KlOwNlOvE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol no sir just the way i type sorry i couldnt help :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im a girl :/ @KlOwNlOvE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ishtar18 do you think you can help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops sorry >.< Ma'am*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I think I can.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's okay @KlOwNlOvE and really @ishtar18 omg you are a life savor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you @danibear401.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so start with the first question @ishtar18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's the first question @danibear401?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the one at the top where it sais 1. haha there are four its about snails, did you read it? @ishtar18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WELL???@ishtar18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here's what I got:k=ln(20000)/500*15 @danibear401.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Relax @danibear401. I'm helping you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry haha but no its suppose to have to do with f(x)=p(m)^x the topic is like exponential functions and models and I have not seen that whatever you just did in this section

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ishtar18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you there @ishtar18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I'm here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*face-palm* so because im working on exponential functions and models that is what we are working on idk what k=in(2000)... is its suppose to be along the lines of f(x)=p(m)^x but im not exactly sure what to do do you know how to do exponential functions and models @ishtar18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was just trying to help you, @danibear401.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know i know but i just need help on it @ishtar18
