Determine what type of model best fits the given situation: every day half a bacterial population dies

A. Linear
B. Exponential
C. None of these
D. Quadratic

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

N = N0 e^-x t   is the general form for Half-Life decay of atoms

B would be the correct choice

Answer 2

The type of model is exponential if the situation is every day half a bacterial population dies option (B) is correct.

What is an exponential function?

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always positive. It denotes with exponent y = a×

where a is a constant and a>1

We have a situation:

Every day half a bacterial population dies

As we know from the exponential function, the function that rapidly increases or decreases.

The standard form of the exponential function is:

y = a×

As the everyday half of bacterial population dies

Let the starting population is a

After one day: = a/2

After second day: = a/4

After third day: = a/8

After nth day: = (a/2)(1/2)ⁿ⁻¹

The above expression represents an exponential function.

Thus, the type of model is exponential if the situation is every day half a bacterial population dies option (B) is correct.

martin is filling his bathtub, but he left the drain partially open. martin knows that it takes 8 minutes to fill his 40 gallon tub. the equation v = 2.5t represents the volume, v , of water that drains out of the tub in t minutes. if martin leaves the water on, will the tub ever overflow ?

please someone help ​​

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it will overflow after 16 minutes..

Step-by-step explanation:

The tub fills at a rate of 5 gallons every minute, but it drains at a rate of 2.5 gallons every minute. This means that it fills twice as fast as it drains, so it would take 16 minutes for the tub to overflow. If you subtract the rate of draining from the rate of filling then the net rate of water going up is 2.5 gallons a minute.

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

75 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

the external angle is between the outside of one of the sides of the angle and the continued line of the second side of the angle.

and because it is measured against a line, where we have a total of 180 degrees for angles, we have

exterior angle = 180 - interval angle = 180-105 = 75

Selling frozen yogurt at a fair, you make $565 and use 250 cones. A single-scoop cone cost $2 and a double-scoop cone cost $2.50. How many of each type of cone did you sell?

Answers

The seller sold 120 single-scoop cones and 130 double-scoop cones to make $565.

250 cones were used while selling yogurt and made $565.

There are two types of cones:

Single-scoop cone that cost $2.

Double-scoop cone that cost $2.50.

We need to know how many cones of each type were used while selling yogurt that made $565.

This is a system of linear equations problem.

We will have to make two linear equations using the given statements and apply the substitution method to get our answer.

Consider,

x = single-scoop cone.

y = double-scoop cone.

Now, we can make two linear equations:

x + y = 250............(A)

2x + 2.50y = 565...............(B)

Apply substitution method.

From (A) we get,

x = 250 - y...............(C)

And putting x = 250 - y in (B) we get,

2 ( 250 - y ) + 2.50y = 565

500 - 2y + 2.50y = 565

0.50y = 565 - 500

0.50y = 65

y = 65 / 0.50
y = 6500 / 50

y = 130

Putting y = 50 in (C) we get,

x = 250 - 130

x = 120

We have,

x = 120 and y = 130

We see that we need 120 single-scoop cones and 130 double-scoop cones to make $565.

The equation be (x/2) - 3 = x/3 then, the number of x = 18.

How to estimate the value of x?

To estimate the value of x, bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side. Simplify the values to estimate the result.

Let x be the number

From the given information, we get

(x/2) - 3 = x/3

The set all the fractions on one side and constants on another side

(x/2) - (x/3) = 3

Multiply by LCM

3x - 18 = 2x

Add 18 to both sides

3x - 18 + 18 = 2x + 18

simplify

3x = 2x + 18

Subtract 2x from both sides

3x - 2x = 2x + 18 - 2x

x =18.

Therefore, the number is x = 18.

(4 points) Part C: Belinda wants to purchase a house that would have the greatest value in 30 years. Will there be any significant difference in the value of either house after 30 years? Explain your answer, and show the value of each house after 30 years. (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

A) both functions are linear

B) f(x) = 7446.4x + 178713.6 and f(x) = 11000x + 179000

C) House 2 will value $106894.4 more than house 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Value Increase from year 1 to year 2:

House 1: 193,606.40 - 186,160 = 7446.4

House 2: 201,000 - 190,000 = 11000

Value Increase from year 2 to year 3:

House 1: 201,350.66 - 193,606.40 = 7744.26

House 2: 212,000 - 201,000 = 11000

This means that a constant increament in x variable gives a constant increament in both houses vales. Then, both functions are linear.

B) The slope is the same as the value increment from one year to the next one.

slope (m) of House 1: 7446.4

slope (m) of House 2: 11000

General formula of a line:

f(x) = mx+b

Replacing with a known point:

House 1

186,160 = 7446.4(1) + b

b = 186,160 - 7446.4 = 178713.6

equation: f(x) = 7446.4x + 178713.6

House 2

190,000 = 11000(1) + b

b = 190,000 - 11000 = 179000

equation: f(x) = 11000x + 179000

C) Replacing x = 30 into each equaiton:

Value of House 1 after 30 years

f(x) = 7446.4(30) + 178713.6 = 402105.6

Value of House 2 after 30 years

f(30) = 11000(30) + 179000 = 509000

Then, house 2 will value 509000 - 402105.6 = $106894.4 more than house 1.

If i work in a week 2 days cleaning and i will work 4 hours in a day and in 1 hour is 8$ how much will it be in a year

Answers

Answer:

$3072

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that :

I work for 4 hours everyday, working 2 days a week.

And in 1 hour , I get $8.

Therefore,

1 hour = $8

4 hours = 4 x  8

             = $32

So, in 1 day working for 4 hours, I get $32.

∴ Working 2 days = 32 x 2

                              = $64

In 1 month, there are 4 weeks

So, in 4 weeks (or 1 month), I work for = 4 x 2

                                                               =  8 days

Therefore, in 8 days, I get = 8 x 32

                                            = $256

Now there are 12 months in a year.

So, in 12 months , I will get = 12 x 256

                                            = $3072

Therefore, in 1 year , I will get $3072.

Answers

cos(a) = x/r

sin(a) = y/r

tan(a) =  y/x

In the image at the end, you can see a sketch of the situation, we can model this with a triangle rectangle:

The hypotenuse length is equal to r, the adjacent cathetus to the angle is the x-value, and the opposite cathetus to the angle is the y-value.

Now we can remember the trigonometric relations:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

sin(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

Using what we wrote above, we can rewrite these as:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse) = x/r

sin(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse) = y/r

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus) = y/x
