Show work

Answers

Answer:

a) growth

b) 3%

c) 6 years (since the beginning of the decade)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The population P (in thousands) of Austin, Texas during a recent decade can be approximated by [tex]y=494.29(1.03)^t[/tex] when t is the number of years since the beginning of the decade.

General form of an exponential function: [tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

where:

a is the y-intercept (or initial value)b is the base (or growth factor)x is the independent variabley is the dependent variable

If [tex]b > 1[/tex] then it is an increasing function

If [tex]0 < b < 1[/tex] then it is a decreasing function

a) The model represents exponential growth as 1.03 > 1

b) The annual percent increase of the population is 3%

1.03 - 1 = 0.03

0.03 x 100 = 3%

c) To estimate when was population about 590,000 set y = 590 and solve for t:

[tex]\implies 590=494.29(1.03)^t[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{590}{494.29}=(1.03)^t[/tex]

Take natural logs of both sides:

[tex]\implies \ln\left(\dfrac{590}{494.29}\right)=\ln (1.03)^t[/tex]

[tex]\implies \ln\left(\dfrac{590}{494.29}\right)=t\ln (1.03)[/tex]

[tex]\implies t=\dfrac{\ln\left(\dfrac{590}{494.29}\right)}{\ln (1.03)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies t=5.988069001...[/tex]

Therefore the population was about 590,000 6 years since the beginning of the decade.

If a car travels 213 miles in 3 hours, how many miles will the car drive in 5 hours? pls help

Answers

Answer:

355 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure out how far the car travelled in 1 hour - 3 hours can be divided by 3 for 1 hour, so do the same for the miles - 213 / 3 = 71 miles.

So we know the car travelled 71 miles in 1 hour.

Now just multiply the miles by 5 to figure out the answer - 71 * 5 = 355 miles

this is kinda rushed so you might want to check my answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find the area of the rectangle and semi circle seperately then add

4*12 = 48, (8/2)^2 *pi /2 = 8pi = 25.12

48+25.12 = 73.12

2. find the area of the triangle and semicircle then add

11*10/2 = 55, (10/2)^2 * pi / 2 = 39.25

55+39.25 = 94.25

3. split the shape into a trangle and a square

12*(2+6+2)/2 = 60, 6*6 = 36

36+60 = 96

4. split into 2 rectangles

10*3 = 30, 6*4 = 24

30+24=54

5. find area of rectangle and subtract area of semicircle

4*14 = 56, (4/2)^2 * pi /2 = 6.28

56+6.28 = 62.28

6. area of circle minus area of rectangle

(16/2)^2 * pi /2 = 100.48, 2*5 = 10,

100.48-10= 90.48

Answers

Answer:

108.8yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Side Angle Side triangle : Area = 1/2 ( a × b ) × sin(c)

where a and b = the side lengths and c = the angle

Here the given side lengths are 23yds and 9.5yds and the angle given has a measure of 85° so a = 23, b = 9.5 and c = 85

Area = = 1/2 ( a × b ) × sin(c)

a = 23 , b = 9.5 and c = 85

Area = 1/2 ( 23 × 9.5 ) × sin(85)

==> multiply 23 and 9.5

Area = 1/2 ( 218.5 ) × sin(85)

==> multiply 1/2 and 218.5

Area = 109.25 × sin(85)

==> multiply sin(85) and 109.25

Area = 108.8yd²

Note: When the triangle is not a right triangle ( when there is no 90° angle ) we have to use a special formula in order to find the area. Here this is given a side an angle and a side, when given a side an angle and another side you can solve using the formula Area = 1/2 ( a × b ) × sin(c)

Answers

Answer:

  13. x=11; MN=65°; NP=115°; NQP=245°

  15. x=9; AD=108°; BC=23°; DC=139°; DBC=221°

Step-by-step explanation:

13.

The marked arcs are congruent, so we can equate the given expressions for their measures:

  10x -45 = 6x -1

  4x = 44 . . . . . . . . . add 45-6x

  x = 11 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

The arc measures are found by using the value of x in the corresponding expression. Arcs around a circle total 360°.

  arc MN = (10(11) -45)° = 65°

  arc NP = 180° -65° = 115°

  arc NQP = 360° -NP = 245°

__

15.

The sum of arcs around a circle is 360°. We can use this fact to write an equation involving the given expressions. Clockwise from A, we have ...

  90 +(2x +5) +(17x -14) +12x = 360

  31x = 279 . . . . . . . subtract 81, collect terms

  x = 9 . . . . . . . . . divide by 31

The arc measures are found by using the value of x in the corresponding expression.

 arc AD = 12(9)° = 108°

  arc BC = (2(9) +5)° = 23°

  arc DC = (17(9) -14)° = 139°

  arc DBC = 360° -DC = 221°

Answer: A= 42 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A= 180-90-48=42 (degrees)

Answer:

A= 42 degrees

a = 27

c= 40.4

Step-by-step explanation:

48 - 90 = 42 (we know the remaining angle area is 90 because its a right triangle and a traingle is 180 degrees)

to find the answer of a we need to use tan(48) and when you convert that to radians you get 1.1106 ish tan is opposite over adjacent and we know the opposite is 30 but we dont know a so we put [tex]\frac{30}{a}[/tex] = 1.1106 and put a on both sides so you divide 30 by 1.1106 and dget 27.0124 and round to the nearest tenth to get 27

to find c you need to find the hypotanuse which is [tex]a^{2}[/tex]+[tex]b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]

30 squared is 900 add that to 27 squared which is 729 and you get 1629

find the square root of 1629 to get 40.3608 and then round that to the nearest tentth to get 40.4

Peter weighs is 105 kg. His wants to lose 500 g per week. How many weeks will it take for him to have a mass of 90 kg

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

500 g = 1/2 kg => 2 weeks he loses 1 kg

105 - 90 = 15 kg

So he needs to take 30 weeks in total. ( 15 * 2)

500g=0.5kg

Let weeks be x

So

105-0.5x=900.5x=105-900.5x=15x=15/0.5x=30weeks
