The Chesapeake Bay holds about 18 trillion gallons of water. The bay covers 4,480 square miles or 2,867,200 acres. Each acre can hold 750,000 oysters. Each oyster can filter 50 gallons of water each day. Can there be enough oysters to filter the whole Chesapeake Bay in one day? How is this number impacted by the bay's conditions?

Answers

Answer 1

There are enough oysters to filter the whole Chesapeake Bay in one day.

The numbers can be affected by the water temperature and the cleanliness of the water.

Are there enough oysters?

The total number of water that can be filtered by the oysters is a function of the total amount of oysters in the bay and the quantity of water they can filter.

Total amount of water they can filter = oysters per acre x total acre x total gallons they can filter each day

(2.9 x[tex]10^{6}[/tex]) x (7.5 x [tex]10^{5}[/tex]) x (5 x 10) = 1.0875 x [tex]10^{14}[/tex]

The gallons of water in the bay in standard form = 1.8 x [tex]10^{13}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

using the slope formula

Find the value of
x
y, and
z in the parallelogram below.

Answers

Let A be the angle of 79 degrees
B be the angle of (5y-4) degrees
C be the angle of (x+5) degrees
D be the angle of (9z-7) degrees
According to the property of parallelogram
Opposite angles are equal
We get, angle A = angle C
Since angle A = 79 degrees
And angle C = (x+5) degrees
We get, x+5=79
=> x=79-5=74.

Angle B = Angle D
(5y-4)=(9z-7)
Since there’s two variables here, we can’t use the property of “opposite angles are equivalent”
We have to use another property which is adjacent angles are equal
Therefore, we can find angle D
Angle D + Angle A=180
=> 9z-7 =180-79
z=108/9
z=12
Since (5y-4)=(9z-7)
Substitute z=12 in
We get, 5y-4=101
y= 105/5
y= 21
Therefore, x=74, y=21 and z=12.

The slope of a vertical line is undefined because there is no rise/run and the slope formula would give you something over 0, which is undefined

Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the line graphed (a vertical line) is undefined.

No matter how large we set out slope, we will never reach a vertical slope. As we approach infinity, we will get closer, and closer, but we can never fully have a slope of a vertical line.

A slope of 1 means that we move up 1, over 1. A slope of 2 means that we move up 2, over 1. Even if we move up 5000, we still move over at least slightly (with a slope).

Answers

The explicit formula of the function d(n) is [tex]d(n) = 2.7 * 6.1^{n-1[/tex]

How to determine the explicit formula?

The function is given as:

d(1) = 2.7

d(n) = d(n-1) x (6.1)

The above means that the function is an exponential function, and it has the following parameters:

First term, d(1) = 2.7

Common ratio, r = 6.1

The explicit formula of an exponential function is:

[tex]d(n) = d(1) * r^{n-1[/tex]

What is an equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

Given equations are solved as:-

a - 1.2b = -3 or a = -3 + 1.2b

0.2a + 0.6b = 12

Put the value of a from equation 1 to the equation second.

0.2 ( -3 + 1.2 b)  + 0.6b = 12

-0.6 + 0.24b + 0.6b = 12

0.84b = 12  + 0.6

0.84 b = 12.06

b  = 15

Put the value of b in the first equation to find the value of a.

a = 1.2b - 3

a = (1.2 x 15) - 3

a = 15

The function is given as:

d = √216 +h²

At a distance of 100 feet, it means that:

d = 100

So, we have:

√216 +h² = 100

Take the square of both sides

216 +h² = 10000

Subtract 216 from both sides

h²= 9784

Take the square root of both sides

h = 98.9

Keesha buys grapes and bananas. These bills and coins represent the cost of each item. How much did Keesha spend in all? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

The total amount of money spent by Keesha to buy grapes and bananas is equal to $6.38.

How much did Keesha spend in all?

Based on the value of the bills and coins which represent the cost of each item, we would determine the total amount of money spent by Keesha to buy grapes and bananas.

For the grapes, we have:

Cost of grapes = 5 + (1 × 0.25) + (2 × 0.1) + 0.05

Cost of grapes = 5 + 0.25 + 0.2 + 0.05

Cost of grapes = $5.5.

For the bananas, we have:

Cost of bananas = (3 × 0.25) + 0.1 + (3 × 0.01)

Cost of bananas = 0.75 + 0.1 + 0.03

Cost of bananas = $0.88.

Total cost = 5.5 + 0.88
