Read the following scenario, and then answer the question.

Juan assumes that the temperature of the hot tea cooling on his desk can be modeled with an exponential function like this one: T(t)=179(0.92)t. He bases his assumption on the following: The tea cools about 8% every minute. The tea's current temperature is around 179 degrees Fahrenheit.

Which explanation correctly addresses Juan's assumption?

He is incorrect. The tea will cool linearly since it cools at the same number of degrees every minute.
He is correct. The tea will cool exponentially since it cools at a percentage rate every minute.
He is incorrect. The tea will cool along the curve of a parabola since it cools at an increasing percentage rate every minute.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (b)  He is correct. The tea will cool exponentially since it cools at a percentage rate every minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's Law of Cooling says the change in temperature is proportional to the temperature. This relation gives rise to an exponential function describing the temperature.

In this description, the temperature referred to is the difference between the temperature of the object and the temperature of the environment to/from which heat is being transferred.

Juan is only partially correct. The function is exponential, but the temperature that should be used in his equation is not the temperature of the tea, but the temperature difference between the tea and his desk.

__

The curve is not linear and not parabolic, excluding the other answer choices.

I have uploaded a graph for you. The x axis is the number of years. The y axis is the salary multiplied by 1000. I should have made the multiplication factor 10000 but 1000 will do.

The 5 given points are plotted in red. The blue line is the function.

The function is y = 5x + 35. That means for every year you add 5 times the year onto the salary.

No years is 35000

1 year is 1 * 5000 + 35000

2 years is 2 * 5000 + 35000 = 45000

6 years is 5 * 5000 * 35000 = 65000

and so on.

The point you want is x = 12

12 years is 12 * 5000 + 35000 = 95000

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the three numbers are x, 2x, and 4x. Then they have the required ratios. After the transformation, we have ...

  ((x+3) +(4x -8))/2 = 2x . . . . . 2nd term is average of 1st and 3rd

  5x -5 = 4x   ⇒   x = 5

what’s the value of x? and what’s the measure of angel JHK?

Answers

Answer:

x = 14

JHK =  21

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal

3x-21 = x+7

Subtract x from each side

3x-x -21 = x+7-x

2x-21 = 7

Add 21 to each side

2x-21+21 = 7+21

2x = 28

Divide by 2

2x/2 =28/2

x = 14

JHK = 3x-21 = 3(14) -21 = 42-21 = 21

Answer:

Because ∠GHI and ∠JHK are vertical angles, they're congruent. Therefore, set their angle measures equal to each other & solve for x.

[tex]x+7=3x-21\\x-3x=-7-21\\-2x=-28\\x=\frac{-28}{-2} =14\°[/tex]

Substitute in the value of x to find ∠JHK:

[tex]3x-21=3(14)-21=42-21=21\°[/tex]

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 2 and -4 and whose leading coefficient is 2

Answers

Answer:

2x^2+4x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic can be written as

f(x) = a(x-z1)(x-z2) where z1 and z2 are the roots

f(x) = a (x-2)(x- -4)

a is the leading coefficient

f(x) = 2(x-2)(x+4)

     = 2(x^2 -2x+4x-8)

     = 2(x^2 +2x-8)

     = 2x^2 +4x-16

The reasonable domain for this function is approximately 1843 ≤ x ≤ 2186. The function is effectively undefined for values of x outside this domain, so the y-intercept is meaningless by itself.
