The number of fish in a lake can be modeled by the exponential regression equation y = 14.08 • 2.08x, where x represents the year. which is the best prediction for the number of fish in year 5? round your answer to the nearest whole number. a. 39 b. 548 c. 1464 d. 146

B. 548

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the exponential regression equation models the number of fish in a lake.

You know that the variable "x" represents the year. Therefore, ir order to predict the number of fish in year 5, you need to substitute into the given exponential regression equation.

Then, you get:

Rounded to the nearest whole number:

The correct answer option is C. 548.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the number of fish in a lake can be modeled by the following exponential regression equation:

where represents the number of year.

We are to determine whether which of the given answer options best predict the number of fish in year 5.

≈ 548

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
