Over the past several months, the water level of a lake has been decreasing by 3% each week. If the highest water level before the decrease started was 520 ft, what was the level at the end of 8 weeks?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y= 407.54654 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential decay functions

y = ab^x  where a is the initial value and b is ( 1 - rate of decay)

a = 520

b = 1- 3%

y = 520 ( 1- .3) ^x

y = 520 ( .97) ^x

We want x to be 8 weeks

y = 520 ( .97) ^8

y= 407.54654 ft

Miguel runs 7 miles in 60 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 24 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

We use the rule of three

7 miles ---------------> 60 minutes

So x ------------------> 24 minutes

So x= (24 minutes × 7 miles )/60 minutes .

We simplify by 《minutes》 because it's in the numerator and the denominator .

So x= (24×7 miles )/60

x = 168 miles /60

x=2,8 miles

So Miguel runs 2,8 miles in 24 minutes.

A complicated mechanical system contains 8 components. If there is a 18% chance that each component will fail during processing, and components fail independently of each other, then
(a) What is the probability that fewer than 3 components will fail?
(b) What is the meet likely number of failures?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The probability that fewer than 3 components will fail is  0.8392.

(b) The mean likely number of failures is 1.44.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a complicated mechanical system contains 8 components. If there is an 18% chance that each component will fail during processing, and components fail independently of each other.

Let X = Number of components fail during processing

The above situation can be represented through the binomial distribution;

[tex]P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ;x=0,1,2,.....[/tex]

where, n = number of samples (trials) taken = 8 components

            r = number of success = fewer than 3 components will fail

           p = probability of success which in our question is the probability

                 that each component will fail during processing, i.e. p = 18%

SO, X ~ Binom(n = 8, p = 0.18)

(a) The probability that fewer than 3 components will fail is given by = P(X < 3)

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

= [tex]\binom{8}{0}\times 0.18^{0} \times (1-0.18)^{8-0}+ \binom{8}{1}\times 0.18^{1} \times (1-0.18)^{8-1}+ \binom{8}{2}\times 0.18^{2} \times (1-0.18)^{8-2}[/tex]

= [tex]1 \times 1 \times 0.82^{8}+ 8 \times 0.18^{1} \times 0.82^{7}+28 \times 0.18^{2} \times 0.82^{6}[/tex]

= 0.8392

(b) The mean likely number of failures is given by the following formula;

      Mean of X, E(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

                                 = [tex]8 \times 0.18[/tex] = 1.44

Hence, the mean likely number of failures is 1.44.

Steve rides his bike at a rate of 1760 feet per minute. What is his rate in miles per hour?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is  19.36 miles per hours

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem is a unit conversion problem

In this problem, we are expected to convert from feet/min to miles per hour

given that the rate is 1760 feet per minute

from tables, we are given that

1 foot per minute is  0.011 miles per hour hence

1760 feet per minutes will give x miles per hour

cross multiplying we have

x= 1760*0.011

x= 19.36 miles per hours

Answers

Answer:

Domain: [tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]

Range: [tex][-5,\infty)[/tex]

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the graph.

Recall that the domain is the span of x-values covered by the graph, while the range is the span of y-values covered by the graph.

So we have the equation.

[tex]y=(x+3)^2-5[/tex]

This is a quadratic.

The domain of a quadratic is all real numbers. If you look at the graph, we can also see that the x-values will go on infinitely in both direction.

In interval notation, this is:

[tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]

For the range, note that the lowest the parabola goes is y=-5.

Therefore, our range is all values greater than or equal to -5.

In interval notation, this is:

[tex][-5,\infty)[/tex]

Note that we use brackets for the -5 because it is included in our range.

So, our answer is C

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain and range of  y = (x+3)^2 - 5

According to the National Center for Health​ Statistics, in​ 1990, 28% of babies in the United States were born to parents who were not married. Throughout the​ 1990s, this increased by approximately 0.6% per year. If this trend​ continues, in which year will 49% of babies be born out of​ wedlock

Answers

Answer:

2029

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation:

0.28+0.006x=0.51

A few things explained:

The constant 0.28 comes from the fact in 1990, 28% of babies were born to parents who were not married. 28%=0.28

0.006 represents 0.6% and x represents the number of years will pass until 49% of babies will be born out of wedlock

0.51 represents 51%. 51% represents the percentage of babies who will be born to parents not married (100% - 49%=51%). You want to use 51% instead of 49% because the right side represents the babies born to parents not married.

We can solve the equation:

0.28+0.006x=0.51

0.006x=0.23

x=38.33

Since you can't have 38.3333 years, we'll say that 39 will pass until 49% of babies are born out of wedlock.

So, we add 39 years to 1990.

1990+39=2029

Caleb has worked hard and is offered a salaried position with the same company. He is offered $28,000, but will be expected to work 44 hours per week with no overtime pay. How much would he be paid per year if he remained in his present job and worked 44 hours per week, and was paid for the overtime? (Caleb makes $11.15 an hour and gets time and a half for overtime.)

Answers

Answer:

$7.50 (paid per hour) times 70 hours (times 2 of 35 hours) = $525 gross pay

Step-by-step explanation:

525 is the gross pay.

Hello there! :D

We know that Caleb has two options:

Let's say that Option A is taking the new job, and Option B is solving for the new one. We know that Option A will leave him with $28,000. Let's do some math to see how much he would make with Option B.

We can do this by calculating how many ours he would work in one year and multiplying that by $11.15.

So, we have 44 hours a week. There are 52 weeks in a year.

52*44= 2288

Now, we can mutltiply that by his hourly wage.

2288*11.15=$25,511.2

Let's see how much time it would take to make the same amount of money since he is allowed to work overtime at half price:

Subtract the amount he makes in Option A by Option B:

28,000-25,511.2= 2488.8

Now we need to divide his hourly wage in half, because he gets paid half as much for overtime (I am assuming the wording is weird here).

11.15/2= 5.575

Now we can find out how many hours he needs to do per year to make the same amount.

2488.8/5.575=432.834 hours

Per week that is 8.3 extra hours! (Sounds like a lot of work)

If I was Caleb, I would take the new job offer, because it is unlikely that he will make much more in his current job.

I hope this helped you and that you have a wonderful day,

A model plane has a scale of 1 in: 6 yd. If
the model plane is 3 in tall then how tall is
the real plane?

Answers

The model is 3 inches tall. The ratio is 1 inch: 6 yards, and 1 times 3 is 3, and 3 times 6 is 18. The real plane is 18 yards tall.

Answer:

18 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

inches / yards = inches / yards

We know the scale is 1 inch to 6 yards.

1 inch / 6 yards = inches / yards

We know the model plane is 3 inches tall, but we don't know how tall the real plane is. Therefore, we can it is 3 inches to x yards.

1 inch / 6 yards= 3 inches / x yards

1 /6= 3/x

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second. Then, multiply the denominator of the first by the numerator of the second.

1*x= 6*3

1x= 6*3

x= 6*3

x=18

x= 18 yards

The real plane is 18 yards.

The position of an object in circular motion is modeled by the given parametric equations. Describe the path of the object by stating the radius of the circle, the position at time t = 0, the orientation of the motion (clockwise or counterclockwise), and the time t that it takes to complete one revolution around the circle.
x = 4 cos 3t, y = 4 sin 3t
How do you get to that solution?

Answers

Answer:

4 units ; counter clockwise ; 2.09 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

x = 4 cos 3t

y = 4 sin 3t

The Radius (r) could be obtained using Pythagoras:

R = √(x^2 + y^2)

R = √[(4cos3t)^2 + (4sin3t)^2]

R = √[16cos^(2)3t + 16sin^(2)3t]

Recall : cos^2θ + sin^2θ = 1

Therefore, cos^(2)3t + sin^(2)3t= 1

Where, 3t stands for θ

R = √[16cos^(2)3t + 16sin^(2)3t]

Factorizing:

R = √16[cos^(2)3t + sin^(2)3t)]

R = √16[1]

R = √16

R = 4 units

Position at time t = 0

x = 4 cos 3(0)

x = 4 cos 0

x = 4 * 1 = 4 units

y = 4 sin 3t

y = 4 sin 3(0)

y = 4 * sin 0

y = 0

Position at t = 0;

(x, y) = (4, 0) = counterclockwise

Time taken to complete 1 complete revolution:

2π/3 = 6.2831853 /3 = 2.0943951
