Writing in Mathematics Exercises 119. Explain how to solve an exponential equation when both sides can be written as a power of the same base. a. An exponential equation is defined as an equation that contains a variable in an exponent. In order to solve an exponential equation we need to look at the steps that are required. Exponential equations that have the same base are in the form of If bm=bn. When we see an equation of exponents with the same base we will find the answer by setting

Population Growth and Ecological Footprints The population size (N) of a species at any point in time (t) is determined by its size at (t-1), its per capita birth rate (b), its per capita death rate (d), and immigration and emigration. Each of these values is, in turn, affected by a huge suite of biotic and abiotic conditions. Human populations are governed by these same variables. In this laboratory, you will use models of population growth to understand how population growth

RECOMMENDATION #1. Improve the demand forecasts made internally by the Buying Committee in November just before Speculative Production. Instead of using just a simple average of the individual forecasts made by Laura, Carolyn, Greg, Wendy, Tom, & Wally, use a weighted average, with the weights reflecting past accuracy. RECOMMENDATION #2. Obtain market feedback earlier than Las Vegas, thereby converting some Speculative Production to Reactive Production. Sport Obermeyer can invite selected

3 – Functions Algebra Of Functions 1. Functions can be combined whereby fg(x) = f(g(x)) = g(x) followed by f(x). 2. The set of values for which a function is defined is the domain (i.e. x values), and the set of values that the function can return is the range (i.e. y values). 3. Many-to-one functions have more than one value in the domain giving one value in the range. It is impossible to have many-to-one functions. 4. The inverse of a function is denoted by f –1(x), and is only a function if f(x)
