A 2000-gallon metal tank to store hazardous materials was bought 15 years ago at cost of $100,000. What will a 5,000-gallon tank cost today if the power–sizing exponent is 0.57 and the construction cost index for such facilities has increased from 180 to 600 over the last 15 years? Choose the closest value.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value  is [tex]P_o = \$ 561958.9 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The capacity of the metal  tank is  [tex]C =  2000 \  gallon[/tex]

   The duration usage is  [tex]t = 15\ years \ ago[/tex]

   The cost of 2000-gallon tank 15 years ago is [tex]P =  \$100,000[/tex]

    The capacity of the second tank considered is [tex]C_1 = 5,000[/tex]  

    The power sizing exponent is [tex]e = 0.57[/tex]

     The initial construction cost index is  [tex]u_1 = 180[/tex]

      The new construction after 15 years cost index is  [tex]u_2 =600[/tex]

Equation for the power sizing exponent is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\frac{P_n}{P} = [\frac{C_1}{C} ]^{e}[/tex]

=> Here [tex]P_n[/tex] is the cost of 5,000-gallon tank as at 15 years ago  

So

     [tex]P_n  =  [\frac{5000}{2000} ] ^{0.57} * 100000[/tex]

      [tex]P_n  =  \$168587.7[/tex]

Equation for the cost index exponent is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\frac{P_o}{P_n}  =  \frac{u_2}{u_1}[/tex]

Here[tex]P_o[/tex] is the cost of 5,000-gallon tank today

So

       [tex]\frac{P_o}{168587.7}  =  \frac{600}{180}[/tex]

=>    [tex]P_o = \frac{600}{180} * 168587.7[/tex]

=>      [tex]P_o = \$ 561958.9 [/tex]

If f(x)=ax²+bx+c and f(1)=6,f(2)=11,f(3)=18 find the value of a,b,c​

Answers

Given:

f(x) = ax² + bx + c

f(1) = 6

f(2) = 11

f(3) = 18

Find:

value of a,b,c​

Solution:

Substitute x = 1 , 2 , 3 in the given polynomial.

★ f(1) = a(1)² + b(1) + c

⟹ 6 = a + b + c -- equation (1)

Similarly,

★ f(2) = a(2)² + b(2) + c

⟹ 11 = 4a + 2b + c -- equation (2)

★ f(3) = a(3)² + b(3) + c

⟹ 18 = 9a + 3b + c -- equation (3)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

⟹ 4a + 2b + c - (a + b + c) = 11 - 6

⟹ 4a + 2b + c - a - b - c = 5

⟹ 3a + b = 5 -- equation (4).

From equation (3) ,

⟹ 18 - c = 9a + 3b

⟹ 18 - c = 3(3a + b)

Substitute the value of 3a + b from equation (4).

⟹ 18 - c = 3 * 5

⟹ 18 - 15 = c

⟹ 3 = c

substitute the value of c in equation (1).

⟹  6 = a + b + 3

⟹ 6 - 3 = a + b

⟹ 3 = a + b -- equation (5)

Subtract equation (5) from equation (4).

⟹ 3a + b - (a + b) = 5 - 3

⟹ 3a + b - a - b = 2

⟹ 2a = 2

⟹ a = 1

Substitute a value in equation (5).

⟹ 1 + b = 3

⟹ b = 3 - 1

⟹ b = 2

Therefore,

a = 1

b = 2

c = 3.

I hope it will help you.

12x+8y=240

How do I solve for y ?

Answers

Get y on to one size. Subtract 12x from each side to get 8y=-12x+240. Then simplify by dividing each side by 8 to get y alone. y=3/2x+30 or y=1.5x+30

A relation between a collection of inputs and outputs exists comprehended as a function.

If the equation be 12x + 8y = 240 then the value of y exists  30 - (12x/8).

What is meant by function?

A function in mathematics from a set X to a set Y allocates exactly one element of Y to each element of X. The sets X and Y are collectively referred to as the function's domain and codomain, respectively.

A relation between a collection of inputs and outputs exists comprehended as a function.

Let the equation be 12x + 8y = 240

8y = 240 - 12x

simplifying the above equation, we get

y = (240 - 12x) / 8

y = 30 - (12x/8)

Therefore, the value of y = 30 - (12x/8).

The first side of a triangle is 2 inches shorter than three times the second side. The third side is 1 inch longer than twice the second side. If the perimeter of the triangle is 101 inches, how long is each side?

(Answer to get brainliest)

Answers

Answer:

17in, 49in, 35in

Step-by-step explanation:

I did this in my RSM homwork and it is correct.

First, I added the two inches shorter to the 101, then subtracted 1 longer and got 102.

then divide 102 by how many second lengths, 6. so 102 ÷ 6 = 17

17 is the second length.

3x17-2=49 (another length)

2x17+1=35 (last length)

and there is your answer!

First side : 49

Second side : 17

Third side : 35

What is the perimeter of a triangle?

If triangle has sides a, b, c , then the perimeter of that triangle will be P= a +b +c.

Now, according to the question

Let  second side be (b) = x unit

then, First side will be  (a)= 3x-2 unit

and Third side will be  (c)= 2x + 1 unit

since , perimeter is 101

P = a + b + c

x + 3x -2 + 2x + 1 = 101

6x - 1 = 101

x= 17

hence , b = 17 unit

a= 3*17 - 2 =49 unit

c = 2*17 +1 = 35 unit

When a whole number is multiplied by 10to the 5th power, how does the placement of the decimal point change? a It moves five places to the right. b It moves ten places to the right. c It moves five places to the left. d It moves ten places to the left.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

a) It moves five places to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying a whole number by 10 raised to a given (positive whole number) power, involves the shifting of the positioning of the decimal places to the right, depending on the value of the positive whole number power to which the 10 is raised

Similarly, multiplying a whole number by 10 raised to a given (negative whole number) power, involves the shifting of the positioning of the decimal places to the left, depending on the value of the negative whole number power to which the 10 is raised.  

The reason is because, the number base generally used for arithmetic is in base 10 and multiplying or dividing by 10 is what is required to change a number's place value

Therefore, multiplying a whole number by 10 raised to the 5th power (10⁵) requires shifting the decimal place 5 places to the right

Example:

x.0 × 10⁵ = x00000.0

Where, x is a whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have 3x and subtract 18x from it. This gives you -15x.

Then you have positive 26x, so you add 26x onto -15x.

After doing so, you have a positive 11x.

Now you need to subtract 11x from 11x.

 Note: The unit of the width in the question is suppose to be in cm

     "with length 18cm and width 10m"====>>> "with length 18m and width 10m"

so given that the dimension of the room is

18mx10m

we are reducing the dimension by 2

and 1cm---2m

since 2m will represent 1cm

The sum of the 8th & 4th of an Ap is 24 and sum of and sum of 6th & 10th term is 44 Find the Ap​

Answers

Given:

Sum of 8th & 4th terms of an AP = 24

Sum of 6th & 10th terms = 44

Find:

A.P.

Solution:

We know that,

nth term of an AP = a + (n - 1)d

Hence,

⟹ a + (8 - 1)d + a + (4 - 1)d = 24

⟹ a + 7d + a + 3d = 24

⟹ 2a + 10d = 24 -- equation (1)

Similarly,

⟹ a + 5d + a + 9d = 44

⟹ 2a + 14d = 44 -- equation (2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

⟹ 2a + 14d - (2a + 10d) = 44 - 24

⟹ 2a + 14d - 2a - 10d = 20

⟹ 4d = 20

⟹ d = 20/4

⟹ d = 5

Substitute the value of d in equation (1).

⟹ 2a + 10(5) = 24

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = - 26

⟹ a = - 26/2

⟹ a = - 13

We know,

General form of an AP is a , a + d , a + 2d...

Hence,

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 13 + 5 , - 13 + 2(5)...

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 8 , - 3....

I hope it will help you.

The average distance from Pluto to the Sun is about 6×109 kilometers. The average distance from Mars to the Sun is about 2×108 kilometers. The average distance from Pluto to the Sun is about how many times greater than the average distance from Mars to the Sun?

Answers

Answer:

The average distance from Pluto to the Sun is 30 times greater than the average distance from Mars to the Sun.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

- Distance from Pluto to the Sun ([tex]d_{PS}[/tex]) = 6x10⁹ km

- Distance from Mars to the Sun ([tex]d_{MS}[/tex]) = 2x10⁸ km

Now, we can find how many times greater is [tex]d_{PS}[/tex] than [tex]d_{MS}[/tex] as follows:

[tex] \frac{d_{PS}}{d_{MS}} = \frac{6 \cdot 10^{9} km}{2 \cdot 10^{8} km} = 30 [/tex]

Therefore, the average distance from Pluto to the Sun is 30 times greater than the average distance from Mars to the Sun.
