Trout Population A pond currently has 2000 trout in it. A fish hatchery decides to add an additional 20 trout each month. In addition, it is known that the trout population is growing 3% per month. The size of the population after n months is given by the recursively defined sequence Po = 2000, Pn = l.03pn-l + 20 How many trout are in the pond after two months? That is, what is P2 ?
Trigonometry Notes Chapter 2 Section 1&2 Pythagorean Identities: Sin θ+Cos θ=1 Tan θ+1=Sec θ 2 1+Cot θ=Csc θ 2 Conjugates: 2 2 A+B--------A-B so (a+b)*(a-b)=a -b Verify the Identity: sinθ 1+cosθ = Binomial in the denominator is not good 1−cosθ sinθ sinθ ∗(1+cosθ) 1−cosθ Multiply by conjugate (1+cosθ) sinθ(1+cosθ) 2 (1-cosθ)(1+cosθ)=sin2θ because 1-cosθ=sinθ sin θ 1+cosθ 1+cosθ = Factor out sinθ sinθ sinθ Replace with single term: Tan θ+1=Sec θ 2 Sec θ+1=N/
