2. Inflation is at a rate of 7% per year. Evan's favorite bread now costs $1.79. What did it cost 10 years ago? How long
before the cost of the bread doubles?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It cost $0.91 10 years ago.

It takes 10.24 years for the cost of bread to double.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the price of bread after t years has the following format:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}[/tex]

In which P(0) is the current price, and r is the inflation rate, as a decimal.

If we want to find the price for example, 10 years ago, we find P(-10).

Inflation is at a rate of 7% per year. Evan's favorite bread now costs $1.79.

This means that [tex]r = 0.07, P(0) = 1.79[/tex]. So

[tex]P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = 1.79(1+0.07)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = 1.79(1.07)^{t}[/tex]

What did it cost 10 years ago?

[tex]P(-10) = 1.79(1.07)^{-10} = 0.91[/tex]

It cost $0.91 10 years ago.

How long before the cost of the bread doubles?

This is t for which P(t) = 2P(0) = 2*1.79. So

[tex]P(t) = 1.79(1.07)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]2*1.79 = 1.79(1.07)^{t}[/tex]

[tex](1.07)^{t} = 2[/tex]

[tex]\log{(1.07)^{t}} = \log{2}[/tex]

[tex]t\log{1.07} = \log{2}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.07}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 10.24[/tex]

It takes 10.24 years for the cost of bread to double.

A sculpture sits on a pedestal in the shape of a square prism. The side lengths of a base of the prism are 3 feet. The height of the prism is 4 feet. The museum director wants to cover all but the underside of the pedestal with foil that costs $0.22 per square foot. How much will the foil cost?

Answers

Answer:

Total cost of covering the pedestal is $12.54.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pedestal is a square prism so top and bottom are of square shape.

Hence, we have here length = width

We know that the Total Surface Area of a Prism is:

[tex]\text{Total Surface Area = } 2 (l\times w+ w \times h+ h \times l)[/tex]

Where l is length,

w is width and

h is height of prism

We know that here w = l = 3 feet

and h = 4 feet

Also, underside of pedestal is not to be covered.

The underside of pedestal is square type.

So,

[tex]\text{Required Total Surface Area = } l\times w+ 2\times w \times h+2\times h \times l[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 3 \times 3 + 2 \times 3 \times 4 + 2 \times 3 \times 4\\\Rightarrow 9 + 24 + 24\\\Rightarrow 57\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Cost of cover per square foot = $ 0.22

Total cost of [tex]57\ ft^{2}[/tex]  [tex]\Rightarrow 0.22 \times 0.57 = \$12.54[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Element X decays radioactively with a half-life of 14 minutes if there are 680 grams of element X how long to the nearest 10th of a minute would it take the element to decay 17 grams

Answers

Answer:

It would take 74.5 minutes for the element to decay 17 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of element X after t minutes is given by the follwoing equation:

[tex]X(t) = X(0)e^{rt}[/tex]

In which X(0) is the initial amount of the substance and r is the decay rate.

Half life of 14 minutes.

This means that [tex]X(14) = 0.5X(0)[/tex]

So

[tex]X(t) = X(0)e^{rt}[/tex]

[tex]0.5X(0) = X(0)e^{14r}[/tex]

[tex]e^{14r} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{14r}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]14r = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{\ln{0.5}}{14}[/tex]

[tex]r = -0.0495[/tex]

So

[tex]X(t) = X(0)e^{-0.0495t}[/tex]

There are 680 grams of element X

This means that [tex]X(0) = 680[/tex]

[tex]X(t) = X(0)e^{-0.0495t}[/tex]

[tex]X(t) = 680e^{-0.0495t}[/tex]

How long would it take the element to decay 17 grams

This is t for which X(t) = 17. So

[tex]X(t) = 680e^{-0.0495t}[/tex]

[tex]17 = 680e^{-0.0495t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.0495t} = \frac{17}{680}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.0495t} = 0.025[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.0495t}} = \ln{0.025}[/tex]

[tex]-0.0495t = \ln{0.025}[/tex]

[tex]0.0495t = -\ln{0.025}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.025}}{0.0495}[/tex]

[tex]t = 74.5[/tex]

It would take 74.5 minutes for the element to decay 17 grams.

c. Answer part (b) for an increase of 100 psi. (2 marks)


d. Answer part (b) for a decrease of 100 ps

Answers

Answer:

(a) 5,050 psi.(b) 5,051.3 psi.(c) 5,180 psi.(d) 4,920 psi.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]y=1800+1.3x[/tex]

Where [tex]x[/tex] represents the accelerated strength in psi, and [tex]y[/tex] represents 28-day standard-cured strength in psi.

Part a is about finding the y-value for [tex]x=2500[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2500)=1800+3250=5,050[/tex]

Therefore, the expected value of 28-day strength when accelerated strength is 2,500, is 5,050 psi.

Part b is about the y-value for [tex]x=2501[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2501)=1800+3251.3=5,051.3[/tex]

Part c is about the y-value for [tex]x=2600[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2600)=1800+3380=5,180[/tex]

Part d is about the y-value for [tex]x=2400[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2400)=1800+3120=4,920[/tex]

Solve: 3x
+ 4 = 5x - 4x - 8​

Answers

Answer:

3x =  - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify this equation in terms of what is already provided:

3x + 4 = 5x - 4x - 8 ⇒ 3x + 4 = x - 8

2. Now subtract 3x from either side, at the same time adding 8 to either side:   3x + 4 = x - 8 ⇒ 4 = -2x - 8 ⇒ 12 = -2x

3. Divide -2 on either side to isolate the x, and recieve it's value:

12 = -2x ⇒ x = 12/-2 ⇒ x = -6

4. The question demads for the value of 3x, so simply multiply the known value of x by 3, as such: x = -6 ⇒ 3x = -6 * 3 = -18

The answer is 3x=-18

A rectangular animal pen will be built using 200 meters of fencing. If one side of the fence is 60 meters, find the area of the pen?

Answer:

Area=LW=(60m)(40m)=2400 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular pen is 2400 square meters.

What are the area and parameters of a rectangle?

The region that a rectangle occupies in a two-dimensional space is referred to as the area of a rectangle. The quantity of square units required to entirely fill a rectangle is another way to describe its area. The whole distance encircling a rectangle's outside is referred to as its perimeter.

Given, A rectangular animal pen will be built using 200 meters of fencing. If one side of the fence is 60 meters. Hence,

Parameter of rectangle = 200

2(length + width ) = 200

given length of the pen is 60 meters

2(60 + width) = 200

width = 100- 60 = 40

Area of the rectangle = length * width = 60* 40 = 2400

Therefore, 2400 square meters will be the area of the given rectangular pen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of randomly selecting an item with white or red on it is 3/10.

What is the probability?

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur. Many events cannot be predicted with total certainty.

A store display shows two red shirts, one blue shirt, and three shirts with red and white stripes.

The display also shows two pairs of blue jeans, one pair of white pants, and one pair of white shorts.

The probability of randomly selecting an item with white or red on it is given by;

[tex]\rm Probability=\dfrac{Total \ number \ of \ items}{Total \ red \ or \ white \ items}\\[/tex]

Total items =  2 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 10 itens.

Substitute all the values in the formula

[tex]\rm Probability=\dfrac{Total \ number \ of \ items}{Total \ red \ or \ white \ items}\\\\\rm Probability=\dfrac{3}{10}\\\\[/tex]

After flooding damaged much of the crop, the cost of a head of lettuce jumped from $0.92 to $2.26. What percent of increase is this? Round to the nearest one percent.

Answers

Answer:

146%

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] percent~change = \dfrac{new~price - old~price}{old~price} \times 100% [/tex]

If the percent change is positive, it is a percent increase.

If the percent change is negative, it is a percent decrease.

Your numbers are

old price = $0.92

new price = $2.26

Plug in the numbers in the formula above and evaluate the expression.

percent change = ($2.26 - $0.92)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = ($1.34)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = 1.4565 * 100%

percent change = 146%

Since the percent change is a positive number, it is a percent increase.
