The concentration of a pollutant in a lake is 85 parts per million (ppm) and is increasing at a rate of 4.6% each year. A possible formula for the concentration C as a function of year tis:
(a) C 85 +4.6t
(b) C-85-4.6t .
(c) C-85 +0.046t
(d) C-85 -0.046
(e) C = 85 (0.046)
(f) C-85 (0.954)
(g) C = 85 (1.046)
(h) C-85(1.46)
(i) C85(0.46)
(j) C-4.6 (0.85)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]C(t) = 85(1.046)^t[/tex], and the correct answer is given by option g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for an concentration increasing exponentially:

The concentration after t years, considering that it increases exponentially, is given by the following equation:

[tex]C(t) = C(0)(1 + r)^t[/tex]

In which C(0) is the initial concentration and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

The concentration of a pollutant in a lake is 85 parts per million (ppm) and is increasing at a rate of 4.6% each year.

This means that [tex]A(0) = 85, r = 0.046[/tex]. Thus

[tex]C(t) = C(0)(1 + r)^t[/tex]

[tex]C(t) = 85(1 + 0.046)^t[/tex]

[tex]C(t) = 85(1.046)^t[/tex], and the correct answer is given by option g.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (3)  12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of leg XY. Then the length of YZ is x/2 and the area  of the right triangle is ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(x)(x/2) = x²/4

  36 = x²/4 . . . . . use the given value for area

  144 = x² . . . . . . multiply by 4

  √144 = 12 = x . . . . . take the square root

The length of leg XY is 12 cm.

Answers

Answer:

  9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is ...

  I = Prt

where I is the interest earned on principal P invested at annual rate r for t years. Solving for t, we have ...

  t = I/(Pr) = 1125/(2500×.05) = 1125/125

  t = 9 . . . . years

It will take 9 years for Anna to earn 1125 in interest.

Giải phương trình vi phân
a. dy/dx
b. y' + 2xy = 4x

Answers

Your first differential equation is incomplete, so I'll just look at the second one.

y' + 2xy = 4x

Multiply both sides by exp(x ²):

exp(x ²) y' + 2x exp(x ²) y = 4x exp(x ²)

The left side is the derivative of a product:

(exp(x ²) y )' = 4x exp(x ²)

Integrate both sides:

exp(x ²) y = ∫ 4x exp(x ²) dx

For the integral, substitute u = x ² and du = 2x dx :

exp(x ²) y = 2 ∫ exp(u) du

Solve for y :

exp(x ²) y = 2 exp(u) + C

exp(x ²) y = 2 exp(x ²) + C

y = 2 + C exp(-x ²)

Perimeter P=2(l+w)=2[l+(l+2)/3]=2(4l+2)/3≤43

2(4l+2)≤129

8l+4≤129

8l≤125

l≤125/8

so l=15

A spinner with 8 equally sized slices has 2 yellow slices, 3 blue slices, and 3 red slices. The dial is spun and stops on a slice at random. What is the probability that the dial stops on a yellow or blue slice?​

Answers

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many slices are yellow or blue.

There are 2 yellow slices and 3 blue slices, so 5 of them are either yellow or blue.

There is a total of 8 slices.

So, the probability that it will stop on a yellow or blue slice is 5/8.

The slope of a line is 2/3. What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to this line?

Answers

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal. This means you change the sign of the slope to its opposite.

Find the slope of the line passing through these points (-3,4) and (4,1)

Answers

Answer:

-3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = ( 1-4)/(4 - -3)

   = (1-4)/(4+3)

   = -3/7

Answer:

slope = - 3/7

step-by-step explanation:

we have two points which are (-3,4) and (4,1).

To find the slope of line , use the slope formula which is

m = ( y² - y¹ ) / ( x² - x¹)

Where,

m = slope( y² - y¹ ) = ( 1-4 ) ( x² - x¹) = ( 4 - ( - 3 ) )

substitute the values

m = ( 1 - 4 ) / ( 4 - ( - 3 ))

m = -3 / 7

Hence, slope is -3/7.
