Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This situation represents [a.) exponential decay

The rate of growth or decay, r, is equal to  c.) 0.2

So the value of the computer each year is g.) 80% of the value in the previous year.

It will take [i.) 3 years for the value of the computer to reach $512.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the value depreciates each year, it represents exponential decay.

The rate of growth or decay, r, is equal to

Depreciates 20%, so r = 0.2.

So the value of the computer each year is ... of the value in the previous year,

Depreciates 20%, so it is 100% - 20% = 80% of the value in the previous year.

It will take x years for the value of the computer to reach $512.

The value of the computer after x years is given by:

[tex]V(x) = V(0)(1-r)^x[/tex]

In which V(0) is the initial value and r is the decay rate. So

[tex]V(x) = 1000(1-0.2)^x[/tex]

[tex]V(x) = 1000(0.8)^x[/tex]

We want to find x for which V(x) = 512. So

[tex]V(x) = 1000(0.8)^x[/tex]

[tex]512 = 1000(0.8)^x[/tex]

[tex](0.8)^x = \frac{512}{1000}[/tex]

[tex](0.8)^x = (0.512)[/tex]

Applying log to both sides:

[tex]\log{(0.8)^x} = \log{(0.512)}[/tex]

[tex]x\log{0.8} = \log{(0.512)}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{\log{0.512}}{\log{0.8}}[/tex]

[tex]x = 3[/tex]

So it will take 3 years.

Solve for x:
3x – 2(6 - x) = 7x + 2(5 + x) – 6

Answers

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6-x)=7x+2(5+x)-6

First, distribute.

3x+ −12+ 2x = 7x + 10 + 2x −6

Combine like terms on each side.

5x − 12= 9x + 4

To solve for x, pick a side to solve. I will solve the right x.

5x - 12 = 9x + 4

-5x         -5x

-12 = 4x + 4

Subtract 4 to isolate the variable.

-16 = 4x

Divide 4.

What is a cylinder?

A cylinder is a three-dimensional figure that has a radius and a height.

The volume of a cylinder is given as

Example:

The volume of a cup with a height of 5 cm and a radius of 2 cm is

Volume = 3.14 x 2 x 2 x 5 = 62.8 cubic cm

We have,

The surface area of a cylinder = 972 cm²

The surface area of a cylinder.

= 2πrh + 2πr²

Diameter = 2x

Radius = x

Height = 5x

Now,

2πrh + 2πr² = 972

2π (rh + r²) = 972

2π (5x² + x²) = 972

2π x 6x² = 972

6x² = 972/(2 x 3.14)

6x² = 154.78

x² = 25.79

x = √25.79

x = 5.08

x = 5

Thus,

x value is 5.

6x – 3y = -30
3x – 6y = 12

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x – 3y = -30

3x – 6y = 12

Multiply the top equation by 2 and write the bottom equation under it.

12x - 6y = - 60

3x - 6y =   12        Subtract

9x = - 72                 Divide by 9

x = - 72/9

x = - 8

6x - 3y = - 30

6*-8 - 3y = -30

-48 - 3y = - 30         Add 48 to both sides.

-3y = - 30 + 48

-3y = 18                   Divide by -3

y = -18/-3

y = -6

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  55 8/39 N ≈ 55 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The net force on the 1.4 kg block is proportional to its mass. That is, the ratio of net force on that block to the net force on the total mass is the same as the ratio of the block's mass to the total mass.

  net force on 1.4 kg = (1.4 kg)/(1.4 +6.4 kg) × (64 N -15 N) = (7/39)(49 N)

  net force on 1.4 kg = 8 31/39 N

Then the force applied by the 6.4 kg mass is ...

  64 N - 8 31/39 N = 55 8/39 N ≈ 55 N . . . . applied by 6.4 kg mass

The volume of a sphere is two-thirds the volume of a cylinder.



What is the volume of a cylinder that has the same diameter as a sphere with a volume of 14 u3, in u3?

Answers

Answer:

21u3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the volume of  a sphere is two-thirds the volume of a cylinder.

Let the volume of the sphere be A and that of the cylinder be B then

A = 2/3 B

Given that the volume of the sphere of same diameter as a cylinder is 14u3 then

14u3 = 2/3 B

Multiply both sides by 3

42u3 =2B

Divided both sides by 2

21u3 = B

The volume of the cylinder in terms of u3 is 21u3

Plot a point on the coordinate plane to represent each of the ratio values in the table.

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

Time (h)          Distance (km)

    1                              2

    3                             6

    6                            12

    9                            18

As the time (h) is represented on the x-axis and the distance (km) is represented on the y-axis.

We know that the first coordinate of an ordered pair or point (x, y) is called the x-coordinate and the second coordinate is called the y-coordinate.

Thus, from the table, we get the following points:

(1, 2), (3, 6), (6, 12), and (9, 18)

The given points are plotted on the graph attached below.

From the graph, it is clear that:

Point (1, 2)

Point (1, 2) is represented at x = 1 and y = 2.

Thus, at the point (1, 2):

Speed = Distance / Time = 2/1 = 2km per hour

Point (3, 6)

Point (3, 6) is represented at x = 3 and y = 6.

Thus, at the point (3, 6):

Speed = Distance / Time = 6/3= 2km per hour

Point (6, 12)

Point (6, 12) is represented at x = 6 and y = 12.

Thus, at the point (6, 12):

Speed = Distance / Time = 12/6= 2km per hour

Point (9, 18)

Point (9, 18) is represented at x = 9 and y = 18.

Thus, at the point (9, 18):

Speed = Distance / Time = 18/9= 2km per hour

The projected sales volume of a video game cartridge is given by the function s(p) = 3000 / (2p + a), where s is the number of cartridges sold, in thousands; p is the price per cartridge, in dollars; and a is a constant. If according to the projections, 100000 cartridges are sold at 10 dollars per cartridge, how many cartridges will be sold at 20 dollars per cartridge?

Answers

Answer: 149 cartridges will be sold at 20 dollars per cartridge.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The projected sales volume of a video game cartridge is given by the function [tex]s(p)=\dfrac{3000}{2p+a}[/tex], where s is the number of cartridges sold, in thousands; p is the price per cartridge, in dollars; and a is a constant.

Put s(p)=100000, p= 10, we get

[tex]100000=\dfrac{3000}{2(10)+a}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 100=\dfrac{3}{20+a}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 100(20+a)=3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2000+100a=3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 100a=-1997\\\\\Rightarrow\ a=-19.97[/tex]

i.e. [tex]s(p)=\dfrac{3000}{2p-19.97}[/tex]

Put p=20, we get

[tex]s(20)=\dfrac{3000}{2(20)-19.97}\\\\=\dfrac{3000}{40-19.97}\\\\=\dfrac{3000}{20.03}\approx149[/tex]

Hence, 149 cartridges will be sold at 20 dollars per cartridge.
