If the function Q(t)=4e-0.00938t models the quantity (in kg) of an element in a storage unit after t years, how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg? Round to the nearest year.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

105 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

Q(t) = 4e^(-0.00938t)

Q = Quantity in kilogram of an element in a storage unit after t years

how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg

Inputting Q = 1.5kg into the equation:

1.5 = 4e^(-0.00938t)

Divide both sides by 4

(1.5 / 4) = (4e^(-0.00938t) / 4)

0.375 = e^(-0.00938t)

Take the ln of both sides

In(0.375) = In(e^(-0.00938t))

−0.980829 = -0.00938t

Divide both sides by 0.00938

0.00938t / 0.00938 = 0.980829 /0.00938

t = 104.56599

When t = 104.56599 years , the quantity in kilogram of the element in storage will be exactly 1.5kg

Therefore, when t = 105 years, the quantity of element in storage will be less than 1.5kg

Money is invested into an account earning 4.25% interest compounded annually. If the accumulated value after 18 years
will be $25,000, approximately how much money is presently in the account?
a $5,875
b. $11,820
c. $19,125
d. $23,960

Answers

Answer:

  b.  $11,820

Step-by-step explanation:

The 'rule of 72' tells you the doubling time of this account is about ...

  (72 years)/(4.25) = 16.9 years

So, in 18 years, the amount will be slightly more than double the present value. That is, the present value is slightly less than half the future amount.

  $25,000/2 = $12,500

The closest answer choice is ...

  $11,820

__

The present value of that future amount is ...

  PV = FV×(1 +r)^-t = $25,000×1.0425^-18 ≈ $11,818.73

The present value is about $11,820.

- gp² q² + 12pq - 2p + 9
12p2 + 12pq +2p + 302 + 9

Answers

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have to find the multiplication of the two expressions.

(2p + q)(-3q - 6p + 1)

= 2p(-3q - 6p + 1) + q(-3q - 6p + 1) [By distributive property]

= -6pq - 12p²+ 2p - 3q² - 6pq + q

= -12p² - (6pq + 6pq) - 3q² + 2p + q

= -12p² - 12pq + 2p - 3q² + q

Therefore, Option (2) will be the correct option.

Jamal traveled a distance of 520 miles in 9 hours. Part of the time, his rate of speed was 55 mph. The rest of the time his rate of speed was 60 mph. How long did Jamal travel at each rate?

Answers

Answer:

jamal traveled 5 hours at 55mph and 4 hours at 60mph

Step-by-step explanation:

time x will be time jamal travels 55 mph (in hours)

time y will be time jamal travels 60 mph (in hours)

distanced traveled 520 miles

distance = time*speed

520= x*55+y*60

520=55x+60y

jamal traveled for 9 hours

9 hours is composed to the two times x and y

9=x+y

then

x=9-y

substitute into 520=55x+60y

520=55(9-y)+60y

520=495-55y+60y

520=495+5y

25=5y

y=5

x+y=9

x+5=9

x=4

time x is time jamal travels 55 mph (in hours)

time y is time jamal travels 60 mph (in hours)

jamal traveled 5 hours at 55mph and 4 hours at 60mph

A cylinder has a height of 5 meters and a diameter that is 4 times the measure of the
height. Using 3.14 for pi, which of the following can be used to calculate the volume?

Answers

Answer:

this answer requires that you do a little solving to find all the dimensions we need for the volume.

We know that H (height) = 2m

Diameter = 5 x height, so

Diameter = 5 x 2m = 10m

If you have the formula for finding the volume of a cylinder, it is basically the area of the circular base x cylinder height. You may know already that the area of a circle is (pi) x radius2

So this will be 2 (the height) x (pi) x r2

As we just figured out, the DIAMETER is 10, so the radius is half the diameter = 5.

This brings our volume to 2 x (pi) x 52

= 2 x (pi) x 25

2x25 = 50, so we have 50 x (pi).

Pi = 3.14

50 x 3.14 = 157

Find the sum of the infinite geometric series -27, -9, -3, … The ratio is /3 and u1 is -27

Answers

Answer: C) -81/2

===================================================

Work Shown:

a = -27 = first term

r = 1/3 = common ratio, note how this is between -1 and 1

We start with -27 and multiply by 1/3 each time to get the next term

S = infinite sum

S = a/(1-r), which only works because -1 < r < 1 is true

S = -27/(1-1/3)

S = -27/(2/3)

S = (-27/1) divided by (2/3)

S = (-27/1) times (3/2)

S = (-27*3)/(1*2)

S = -81/2

As you generate and add up the terms of the sequence, the infinite sum slowly starts to approach -81/2 = -40.5; we'll never actually achieve this sum exactly. Think of it as approaching an asymptote.

a. flattest slope.
b. steepest slope
c. backward slope.
d. negative slope.

Answers

Answer:

b. steepest slope

Step-by-step explanation:

The cumulative relative frequency curve also known as Ogive is used for reading the median, upper quartile, lower quartile from the curve and calculating the semi-interquartile range when needed.

From the cumulative relative frequency curve, the interval with the highest proportion of measurements is the interval with the steepest slope. This is because the cumulative relative frequency curve always have a positive slope, and given that the interval has the highest proportion, then the slope will be steepest.

Answer:

m∠Q = 61°

m∠S = 61°

m∠R = 58°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have an isosceles triangle, we know that ∠Q and ∠S are congruent.

Step 1: Definition of isosceles triangle

2x + 41 = 3x + 31

41 = x + 31

x = 10

Step 2: Find m∠Q

m∠Q = 2(10) + 41

m∠Q = 20 + 41

m∠Q = 61°

Step 3: Find m∠S

Since m∠Q = m∠S,

m∠S = 61°

Step 4: Find m∠R (Definition of a triangle)

Sum of angles in a triangle adds up to 180°

m∠R = 180 - (61 + 61)

m∠R = 180 - 122

m∠R = 58°

Layla guesses on all 20 questions of a multiple-choice test. Each question has 4 answer choices. What is the probability of a success and a failure for this experiment?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the criteria for success ? how many questions must be right ? and how many must be wrong for failure ?

if success means all answers right, then she has 4 choices on the first question to pick one right answer. and then for each of those again 4 choices on the second question and so on.

so, all possible outcomes are 4²⁰.

that means the probability to guess all 20 right is

1/4²⁰

a tiny, tiny number.

and the probabilty to have all wrong ?

she has 4 choices to pick 1 of 3 wrong answers.

so, the probability is 3/4 to answer the first question wrong.

for that she has again then the same chance to get the second question wrong too.

so, it is 3/4 × 3/4 = 9/16

and so on.

the probability to guess all 20 wrong is then

(3/4)²⁰ ≈ 0.0032

that is still a small number but much, much larger than the probability to get everything right.

still, even the goal to truly get everything wrong is highly unlikely.

Answers

Answer:

D. [tex]f(x) = 2\cdot x^{2}-4\cdot x -16[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Any parabola is modelled by a second-order polynomial, whose standard form is:

[tex]y = a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Independent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]y[/tex] - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex], [tex]c[/tex] - Coefficients, dimensionless.

In addition, a system of three linear equations is constructed by using all known inputs:

(-2, 0)

[tex]4\cdot a -2\cdot b + c = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1)

(4, 0)

[tex]16\cdot a + 4\cdot b +c = 0[/tex] (Eq. 2)

(0,-16)

[tex]c = -16[/tex] (Eq. 3)

Then,

[tex]4\cdot a - 2\cdot b = 16[/tex] (Eq. 4)

[tex]16\cdot a + 4\cdot b = 16[/tex] (Eq. 5)

(Eq. 3 in Eqs. 1 - 2)

[tex]a - 0.5\cdot b = 4[/tex] By Eq. 4 (Eq. 4b)

[tex]a = 4 + 0.5\cdot b[/tex]

Then,

[tex]16\cdot (4+0.5\cdot b) + 4\cdot b = 16[/tex] (Eq. 4b in Eq. 5)

[tex]64 + 12\cdot b = 16[/tex]

[tex]12\cdot b = -48[/tex]

[tex]b = -4[/tex]

The remaining coeffcient is:

[tex]a = 4 + 0.5\cdot b[/tex]

[tex]a = 4 + 0.5\cdot (-4)[/tex]

[tex]a = 2[/tex]

The function that represents a parabola with zeroes at x = -2 and x = 4 and y-intercept (0,16) is [tex]f(x) = 2\cdot x^{2}-4\cdot x -16[/tex]. Thus, the right answer is D.

between peaks B and C. The surveyor knows that ZASC is a right angle. Find mzASs and m2BSC.

Answers

The measures of the angles between the peaks are;

m∠BSC = 22.5°

m∠ASB = 67.5°

The reason for arriving at the above angles is as follows:

The known values are;

The location of the surveyor = Point S

The angle between peaks A and B = m∠ASB = 3 times as large as the angle between peaks B and C = 3 × m∠BSC

The measure of angle m∠ASC = A right angle = 90°

Required:

To find m∠ASB and m∠BSC

From the given diagram, we have;

m∠ASC = 90°

m∠ASC = m∠ASB + m∠BSC (angle addition postulate)

m∠ASB = 3 × m∠BSC

∴ m∠ASC = 3 × m∠BSC + m∠BSC = 4 × m∠BSC

m∠ASC = 4 × m∠BSC = 90°

m∠BSC = 90°/4 = 22.5°

m∠BSC = 22.5°

m∠ASB = 3 × m∠BSC

∴ m∠ASB = 3 × 22.5° = 67.5°

m∠ASB = 67.5°
