Oak wilt is a fungal disease that infects oak trees. Scientists have discovered that a single tree in a small forest is infected with oak wilt. They determined that they can use this exponential model to predict the number of trees in the forest that will be infected after t years.
f(t) = e^0.4t
The scientists believe the forest will be seriously damaged when 21 or more of the forest’s 200 oak trees are infected by oat wilt. According to their model, how many years will it take for 21 of the trees to become infected?

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

To solve this question, we need to solve an exponential equation, which we do applying the natural logarithm to both sides of the equation, getting that it will take 7.6 years for for 21 of the trees to become infected.

Model:

The exponential model for the number of infected trees after t years is given by:

[tex]f(t) = e^{0.4t}[/tex]

How many years will it take for 21 of the trees to become infected?

This is t for which:

[tex]f(t) = 21[/tex]

Thus

[tex]e^{0.4t} = 21[/tex]

Applying the natural logarithm to both sides:

[tex]\ln{e^{0.4t}} = \ln{21}[/tex]

[tex]0.4t = \ln{21}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\ln{21}}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]t = 7.6[/tex]

It will take 7.6 years for for 21 of the trees to become infected.

39.) Fiona bought a brand new Harley Davidson motorcycle. Since the weather was nice, she decided to go out for a ride with some of her friends. Before leaving town, she stopped to fill up her motorcycle with gas so that she had a full tank. If Fiona's motorcycle has a 4 gallon gas tank, and she only had to add 2 4/7 gallons, how much gas was in the tank before she filled up?​

Answers

Answer:

1 3/7 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of gas in the tank before filling was x.

We have:

x + 2 4/7 = 4x = 4 - 2 4/7x = 2 - 4/7x = 1 3/7 gallons

let the amount of gas be x

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x+2\dfrac{4}{7}=4[/tex]

A rocket is launched from the top of a 76-foot cliff with an initial velocity of 135 ft/s. a. Substitute the values into the vertical motion formula h = –16t2 + vt + c. Let h = 0. b. Use the quadratic formula to find out how long the rocket will take to hit the ground after it is launched. Round to the nearest tenth of a second.


A. 0 = –16t2 + 135t + 76; 0.5 s

B. 0 = –16t2 + 76t + 135; 9 s

C. 0 = –16t2 + 76t + 135; 0.5 s

D. 0 = –16t2 + 135t + 76; 9 s

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 2.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given initial velocity=135 ft/s

& cliff=76 foot

Given quadratic equation

⇒                      (let h=0 it is given)

⇒  

⇒  

⇒    t=8.96≈9 s (the other root is negative)

Hence, rocket will take 9 s to hit the ground after launched.

Answer:  Choice D

0 = 16t^2 + 135t + 76;  9 s

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

Explanation:

The equation we start with is

[tex]h = -16t^2 + vt + c\\\\[/tex]

where v is the starting or initial velocity, and c is the starting height.

We're told that v = 135 and c = 76

We let h = 0 to indicate when the object hits the ground, aka the height is 0 ft.

That means the equation updates to [tex]0 = -16t^2 + 135t + 76\\\\[/tex]

Based on that alone, the answer is between A or D

-------------------

We'll use the quadratic formula to solve for t

We have

a = -16b = 135c = 76

So,

[tex]t = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\\\\t = \frac{-135 \pm \sqrt{135^2 - 4(-16)(76)}}{2(-16)}\\\\t = \frac{-135 \pm \sqrt{23,089}}{-32}\\\\t \approx \frac{-135 \pm 151.9506}{-32}\\\\t \approx \frac{-135 + 151.9506}{-32} \ \text{ or } \ t \approx \frac{-135 - 151.9506}{-32}\\\\t \approx \frac{16.9506}{-32} \ \text{ or } \ t \approx \frac{-286.9506}{-32}\\\\t \approx -0.52971 \ \text{ or } \ t \approx 8.96721\\\\[/tex]

We ignore the negative t value because a negative time duration makes no sense.

The only practical solution here is roughly 8.96721 which rounds to 9.0 or simply 9 when we round to the nearest tenth (one decimal place).

In short, the object will hit the ground at the 9 second mark roughly. Or put another way: the object is in the air for about 9 seconds.

From this, we can see that the final answer is choice D.

The membership fee for joining a gardening association is
$24 per year. A local botanical garden charges members of the gardening association
$3 for admission to the garden. Nonmembers of the association are charred $6.
After how many visits to the garden is the total cost for members, including the
the total cost for nonmembers?

Answers

Hi.

Let's call X number of visits.

so members pay for a year : membership 24 and reduce entrance at 3 dollars.

so you member pay : 3X+24

a non member pay entrance fee of 6 for each visit.

so 6X

Question : for how many visit would a membership will be more intresting than standar entrance ?

3X+24 = 6X

3X-6X = -24

-3X=-24

X= -24/-3

X =24/3

X= 8

Under 8 visit a year, it's cheaper non being a member.

at 8 entrance cost is the same for members and non member. After it better to choose membership as

9 entrances for member is : 3x9 +24 = 27+24= 51

non member : 9x6 = 54

And so on for each supplementary visits.

Which rules define the function graphed below? (15 points cuz I'm stumped)

y=2x+3; y=-1/3x+3
y=2x; y=-1/3x
y=3x+2; y=3x-1
y=-3x+3; y=x+3

Answers

Answer:  Choice A

y=2x+3; y=-1/3x+3

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

Explanation:

The left portion of the blue curve is y = 2x+3 but it is only graphed when x < 0 (we could argue that [tex]x \le 0[/tex] but I'll set that aside for the other portion).

The right portion is the line y = -1/3x + 3 and it's only graphed when [tex]x \ge 0[/tex]

So we could have this piecewise function

[tex]f(x) = \begin{cases}2x+3 \ \text{ if } x < 0\\-\frac{1}{3}x+3 \ \text{ if } x \ge 0\\\end{cases}[/tex]

Or we could easily swap the "or equal to" portion to move to the first part instead like this

[tex]f(x) = \begin{cases}2x+3 \ \text{ if } x \le 0\\-\frac{1}{3}x+3 \ \text{ if } x > 0\\\end{cases}[/tex]

Either way, we're involving the equations mentioned in choice A

Answers

Answer:

The cost price of Dakshes was $ 5,500, while the cost price of Sayad was $ 5,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Sayad bought a watch and sold to Dakshes at 10% profit, and Dakshes again sold it to Sahayata for $ 6,050 at 10% profit, to find the cost price of Dakshes and the cost price of Sayad the following calculations must be performed:

6,050 / 1.1 = X

5,500 = X

5,500 / 1.1 = X

5,000 = X

Therefore, the cost price of Dakshes was $ 5,500, while the cost price of Sayad was $ 5,000.

Which quadratic formula do I need to use to solve 2x(x+1.5)=-1

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x(x + 1.5) = - 1 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

2x² + 3x = - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )

2x² + 3x + 1 = 0 ← in standard form

(2x + 1)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

2x + 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 1 ⇒ x = - 0.5
