OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

Omg thanks for being here :D @misty1212

OpenStudy (misty1212):

HI!!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

what do you need help with? you are supposed to plug in a bunch of numbers use a calculator

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

I did that that is in the document. Here is what I have- 4. a. x 100 + 23x 90(1.2x) 0 100 90 2 146 129.6     3 169 155.5     4 192 186.6     5 215 223.9   b. Approximately between x=4 and x=5 so when x=4.5 both functions will have the same value. Because, m(x) goes from being smaller than s(x), to larger than s(x) between x=4 and x=5, so somewhere in that interval of numbers, both functions must intersect and have the same value. c. d. The x axis= the week #, week 0 (initial value through week 5 The y value represents the # of organisms present. So each point on the graph (x,y)= (week #, population of organisms) e. To determine the solution from the graph, I have to estimate the intersection point (x,y). f. I need help on C and F

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

DO i choose the plot one and copy it or no ?

Nnesha (nnesha):

so there are two points where both lines intersect ????

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

I thought so but I'm still not 100% sure wait do I need to put this in desmos?

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

but what are the points? like I have to show them so in desmos how do i do this

OpenStudy (misty1212):

OpenStudy (misty1212):

i guess so, i used wolfram

OpenStudy (misty1212):

looks like about \(4.43\) http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=100%2B23x%3D90%281.2%29%5Ex

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

wait so its right?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you don't want the negative answer, you want the positive one take a look at the link i sent

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

ahhh so

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

that would be c right

Nnesha (nnesha):

ohh okay so i used desmos to graph this that's why .................... i had tooo zooooooooO.Oooooooooooooooooom out to see the other intersection points :'/

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

alright so to clarify XD That is the one i put for c right ? SO now we can do F lol ok @Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

best of luck!! @Sparklestaraa if i work like this like previous 2 hour i'll probably get medal in real life :D :PD bye :P :D

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

XD haha true u would :P I would love to give u a million @Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

nope i'm not saying for that medal i mean we r almost on right tra k like if i work hard in real life :P :Dlol

Nnesha (nnesha):

@misty1212 thanks for wolfram but pretty complicated to use that

Nnesha (nnesha):

for part C u need both intersection point

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

Lol i know :P but i was giving u one anyway :P Yes u have to pay to almost use wolfram alpha. :D WAIT hold on xD Are there 2 points of intersection xD

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

IS this what i need to put for C?

Nnesha (nnesha):

nope both points where lines intersect

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

ahhh ok so can we go f @Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes wo now we need positive order pair which is ( 4.43 , 201.960)

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

:) ok :)

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

so what do we need to do?

Nnesha (nnesha):

y represent number of organism

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

Well i think what is best is to take the points like what are the numbers for the points and then describe what they refer too. Because I still only understood the picture of C not what the actual points are

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

@Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

for example like this both order pair have x and y values |dw:1424229508008:dw| oaky so two times lines intersect both have x and y values
