There are 20 wild pigs on an island and the number of pigs doubled each year for the past 5 years. The independent variable is

Answers

Answer 1
p(t)=20(2^t)

The independent variable is time.
Answer 2

Answer:

The independent variable is time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original number of pigs on the island = 20,

Also, the number of pigs doubled each year,

After 1 year the pigs = 20(2),

After 2 years = 20(2)²,

After 3 years = 20(2)³,

......................., so on...

Similarly, the number of pigs after t years would be,

[tex]y=20.2^t[/tex]

⇒ The value of y depends upon t,

⇒ The number of pigs depends upon the time ( in years ),

Since, the variable in which the other variable depends is called independent variable,

Hence, the independent variable must be time.

In the diagram below, what is the approximate length of the minor arc ? 

Answers

arc length = given angle/360 x 2 x PI x radius

120/450 x 2 x 3.14 x 23 = 48.17

 round to 48 cm

Answer:

Option A is correct

the approximate length of the minor arc is, 48 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of an arc is given by:

[tex]l = r \theta[/tex]              .....[1]

here r is the radius of the circle from the center and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle in radian.

From the given figure, we have;

r = 23 cm

Use conversion:

1 degree = 0.0174533 radian

then

120 degree = 2.094396

[tex]\theta = 2.094396[/tex] radian.

Substitute these in [1] we have;

[tex]l = 23 \cdot 2.094396 = 48.171108[/tex] cm

Therefore, the approximate length of the minor arc is, 48 cm

The piecewise function is:

[tex]\[ f(x) = \begin{cases} 4 & \text{if } -1 \leq x \leq 1 \\ x - 1 & \text{if } 3 \leq x \leq 5 \end{cases} \][/tex]

To determine the piecewise function represented by the given coordinates, let's examine the points and their corresponding intervals.

The coordinates are (-1, 4), (1, 4), (3, 2), and (5, 4).

The points (-1, 4) and (1, 4) have the same y-coordinate, indicating that on the interval [tex]\(-1 \leq x \leq 1\)[/tex], the function has a constant value of 4. Therefore, the piecewise function for this interval is f(x) = 4 for [tex]\(-1 \leq x \leq 1\).[/tex]

The points (3, 2) and (5, 4) indicate that on the interval [tex]\(3 \leq x \leq 5\)[/tex], the function is a line passing through these two points. We can find the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) for this line.

[tex]\[ m = \frac{\text{change in } y}{\text{change in } x} = \frac{4 - 2}{5 - 3} = \frac{2}{2} = 1 \][/tex]

Using the point (3, 2), we can find the y-intercept:

2 = 1(3) + b

b = -1

Therefore, the equation for the line on the interval [tex]\(3 \leq x \leq 5\) is \(f(x) = x - 1\) for \(3 \leq x \leq 5\).[/tex]

Putting it all together, the piecewise function is:

[tex]\[ f(x) = \begin{cases} 4 & \text{if } -1 \leq x \leq 1 \\ x - 1 & \text{if } 3 \leq x \leq 5 \end{cases} \][/tex]

A gardener has 27 pansies and 36 daisies. He plants an equal number of each type of flower in each row.What is the greatest possible number of pansies in each row?

Answers

There are 27 pansies.
The factors of 27 are (3,9)

Either (a) plant 3 pansies in 9 rows, or
           (b) plant 9 pansies in 3 rows.

There are 36 daisies.
The factors of  36 are (3,12), (6,6) or (9,4).

The initial temperature of a cup of tea is 200ºF. The surrounding temperature is 70ºF, and the value of the constant k is 0.6.
Applying Newton's cooling model, the temperature of the tea after 2 hours will be ___
ºF. round to the nearest integer.

Answers

Newton's Law of Cooling states that the change of the temperature of an object is proportional to the difference between its own temperature and the ambient temperature over time.

Therefore when expressed mathematically, this is equivalent to:

dT = - k (T – Ts) dt

dT / (T – Ts) = - k dt

Integrating:

ln [(T2– Ts) / (T1– Ts)] = - k (t2 – t1)

Before we plug in the values, let us first convert the temperatures into absolute values R (rankine) by adding 460.

R = ˚F + 460

T1 = 200 + 460 = 660 R

Ts = 70 + 460 = 530 R

ln [(T2– 530) / (660 – 530)] = - 0.6 (2 - 0)

T2 = 569.16 R

Find the exact values of sin A and cos A. Write fractions in lowest terms. A right triangle ABC is shown. Leg AC has length 15, leg BC has length 20, and hypotenuse AB has length 25.

Answers

sin A = opposite / hypotenuse = BC/AB = 20/25 = 4/5

cos A = adjacent / hypotenuse = AC/AB = 15/25 = 3/5

In the right triangle with sides 15, 20, and 25, the exact values of sin A and cos A are 4/5 and 3/5, respectively.

In the right triangle ABC, we can use the given side lengths to find the trigonometric ratios for angle A. The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (AB) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs (AC and BC).

Let's denote the angle A as angle A:

Find sin A:

sin A = (opposite / hypotenuse) = BC / AB = 20 / 25 = 4/5.

Find cos A:

cos A = (adjacent / hypotenuse) = AC / AB = 15 / 25 = 3/5.

So, the exact values are sin A = 4/5 and cos A = 3/5.

In summary, in the right triangle ABC with side lengths AC = 15, BC = 20, and AB = 25, the exact values of sin A and cos A are 4/5 and 3/5, respectively.

The vector (-1,-4) tells us that the train is moving 1 unit in the negative x-direction while moving 4 units in the negative y-direction. This vector makes an angle theta with the x-axis. We can find theta by using the inverse tan function. tan(theta) = 4/1 theta = inverse tan (4) = 75.96 Note that this is the angle below the x-axis. The angle in standard position must be measured from the positive x-axis, so we need to add 180 degrees.

Solution:

^ Please use the template above to answer ^

Answers

Final answer:

To solve the quadratic equation x^2 - 10x + 15 = 0 by completing the square, we manipulate it to the form (x - 5)^2 = 10, then solve for x to get two solutions: x = 8.16 and x = 1.84.

Explanation:

To solve the quadratic equation by completing the square, we need to manipulate the equation x^2 - 10x + 15 = 0 so it takes the form of (x - a)^2 = b, where a is half of the coefficient of x, and b is a constant.

First, we move the constant to the other side of the equation:

x^2 - 10x = -15

Next, we find the value that completes the square. This value is (10/2)^2 = 25.

Adding 25 to both sides, we get:

x^2 - 10x + 25 = 25 - 15

Now the equation is a perfect square:

(x - 5)^2 = 10

To find the solution for x, we take the square root of both sides:

x - 5 = ±10√10

x = 5 ± √10

Thus, the solutions rounded to the nearest hundredth are:

x = 5 + √10 ≈ 8.16

x = 5 - √10 ≈ 1.84

The complete answer in the template is:

Form:
( x - 5 )^2 = 10

Final answer:

To find the coordinates of point C which divides line AB into a 2:5 ratio, use the section formula. Therefore, the coordinates are (-4/7, -11/7). This provides point C's location on the line segment AB.

Explanation:

The coordinates of C are determined through the section formula, which finds the coordinates of a point dividing a line segment into a specific ratio. In this case, the ratio is 2:5. To solve for the x-coordinate of C, the formula [(m*x2) + (n*x1)] / (m+n) is used, where m and n are the ratio values, x1 and x2 are the x-coordinates of points A(-2, -3) and B(3, 2). Using these, the x-coordinate of C is found to be (2*3 + 5*(-2)) / (2+5) = -4/7.

Similar calculations apply to solving for the y-coordinate of C: [(m*y2) + (n*y1)] / (m+n) = (2*2 + 5*(-3)) / (2+5) = -11/7.

Therefore, the coordinates of point C are (-4/7, -11/7). This is the point C on the line segment AB that is 2/5 of the way from point A to point B.
