Apark began with a population of 8 rabbits. every year, the rabbit population triples. how long will it take for the population to reach 1,944 rabbits?

It will take 5 years for the population to reach 1,944. Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population = I = 8

Final population = F = 1944

number of years = x

As given, the population is tripled every year that can be calculated using:

F = I*3^x

By putting values in this equation, we get

1944 = 8*3^x

1944/8 = 3^x

243 = 3^x

3^x = 243

3^x = 3^5

x = 5 bases are same so powers can be simplified.

Therefore, it will take 5 years for the population to reach 1,944. Option D is correct.

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."
