A population of beetles are growing according to a linear growth model. The initial population (week 0) is p0=6 and the population after 7 weeks is p7=83 find an explicit formula for the beetle population after n weeks.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P(n)= p0 + 11(n)

Where p0= population of week 0

P(n) = population of n weeks

n= number of weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Population of beetles in Week 0= 6

Population of beetles in Week 7= 83

From week 0 to week 7 there are 8 weeks.

But subtracting population of week 0 from population of week 7 gives

= 83-6

= 77

After the subtraction, we have 7 weeks remaining.

Dividing the remaining population by the number of weeks remaining

=77/7

= 11

For n number of weeks, population p of beetles

P(n)= p0 + 11(n)

Where p0= population of week 0

P(n) = population of n weeks

n= number of weeks

Evaluate the triple integral ∭EzdV where E is the solid bounded by the cylinder y2+z2=81 and the planes x=0,y=9x and z=0 in the first octant.

Answers

Answer:

I = 91.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]I = \int \int_E \int zdV[/tex] where E is bounded by the cylinder [tex]y^2 + z^2 = 81[/tex] and the planes x = 0 , y = 9x and z = 0 in the first octant.

The initial activity to carry out is to determine the limits of the region

since curve z = 0 and [tex]y^2 + z^2 = 81[/tex]

∴ [tex]z^2 = 81 - y^2[/tex]

[tex]z = \sqrt{81 - y^2}[/tex]

Thus, z lies between 0 to [tex]\sqrt{81 - y^2}[/tex]

GIven curve x = 0 and y = 9x

[tex]x =\dfrac{y}{9}[/tex]

As such,x lies between 0 to [tex]\dfrac{y}{9}[/tex]

Given curve x = 0 , [tex]x =\dfrac{y}{9}[/tex] and z = 0, [tex]y^2 + z^2 = 81[/tex]

y = 0 and

[tex]y^2 = 81 \\ \\ y = \sqrt{81} \\ \\ y = 9[/tex]

∴ y lies between 0 and 9

Then [tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \int^{\dfrac{y}{9}}_{x=0} \int^{\sqrt{81-y^2}}_{z=0} \ zdzdxdy[/tex]

[tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \int^{\dfrac{y}{9}}_{x=0} \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{z^2}{2} \end {bmatrix} ^ {\sqrt {{81-y^2}}}_{0} \ dxdy[/tex]

[tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \int^{\dfrac{y}{9}}_{x=0} \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{(\sqrt{81 -y^2})^2 }{2}-0 \end {bmatrix} \ dxdy[/tex]

[tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \int^{\dfrac{y}{9}}_{x=0} \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{{81 -y^2} }{2} \end {bmatrix} \ dxdy[/tex]

[tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{{81x -xy^2} }{2} \end {bmatrix} ^{\dfrac{y}{9}}_{0} \ dy[/tex]

[tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{{81(\dfrac{y}{9}) -(\dfrac{y}{9})y^2} }{2}-0 \end {bmatrix} \ dy[/tex]

[tex]I = \int^9_{y=0} \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{{81 \ y -y^3} }{18} \end {bmatrix} \ dy[/tex]

[tex]I = \dfrac{1}{18} \int^9_{y=0} \begin {bmatrix} {81 \ y -y^3} \end {bmatrix} \ dy[/tex]

[tex]I = \dfrac{1}{18} \begin {bmatrix} {81 \ \dfrac{y^2}{2} - \dfrac{y^4}{4}} \end {bmatrix}^9_0[/tex]

[tex]I = \dfrac{1}{18} \begin {bmatrix} {40.5 \ (9^2) - \dfrac{9^4}{4}} \end {bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]I = \dfrac{1}{18} \begin {bmatrix} 3280.5 - 1640.25 \end {bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]I = \dfrac{1}{18} \begin {bmatrix} 1640.25 \end {bmatrix}[/tex]

I = 91.125

Your friend and your cousin discuss measuring with a ruler. Your friend says that you must always line up objects at the zero on a ruler. Your cousin says it does not matter. Decide who is correct and explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Your friend is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that your friend says that you must always line up objects at the zero on a ruler. Your cousin says it does not matter.

We need to decide who is correct.

When we measure the length of any object we have to line up objects at the zero on a ruler, so that mark on the rules along the other end of the object represents the length of the object.

Let we have a pencil of length 5 cm.

If we place the rules on 0, then 5 is the mark on the rules along the other end of the pencil. So, height  of the pencil is 5 cm.

If we place the rules on 1, then 6 is the mark on the rules along the other end of the pencil. So, height  of the pencil is 6 cm, which is not correct.

Therefore, your friend is correct.

One number is two less than three times another. If their sum is decreased by two, the result is four. Find the numbers.

The smaller of the numbers is ___ and the larger is ___

Answers

Answer: The smaller of the numbers is 2 and the larger is 4.

Step-by-step explanation: 2x3-2=4. 2+4-2=4

Answer:

The bigger number is 1 and the smaller number is also 1

Step-by-step explanation:

One number is 2 less than 3 times another

x + 2 = 3y

If their sum is decreased by 2 the result is 4

(x + 2 + 3y) - 2 = 4

x + 3y = 4

x = 4 - 3y

Substituting value of x, 4 - 3y , in x + 2 = 3y

4 - 3y + 2 = 3y

6 - 3y = 3y

6 = 3y + 3y

6 = 6y

Divide both sides by coefficient of y, 6

y = 1

Substituting value of y, 1 in x + 2 = 3y

x + 2 = 3(1)

x + 2 = 3

x = 3 - 2

x = 1

Answers

Answer:

B. $79 + 0.1($79)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

the shipping cost for an order = 1/10 multiply by the cost of the items bought;

i.e.  [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}\times x[/tex]

where

x = cost of items ordered for.

This implies that:

Sebastian has a bag of 15 blue marbles, 18 red marbles, and 12 yellow marbles. He reaches into the bag three times and pulls out 2 red marbles and a blue marble. What is the probability that he reaches into the bag and pulls out a yellow marble next? A. 1/4 B. 8/21 C. 2/7 D. 5/14

Answers

Answer: C) 2/7

===================================================

Explanation:

Initially there are 15+18+12 = 45 marbles total. He selects 3 marbles (2 reds, 1 blue).

Assuming he doesn't put the three marbles back, this means there are now 45-3 = 42 marbles overall. The yellow count hasn't changed since the first three marbles do not involve yellow. We have 12 yellow out of 42 which leads to the fraction 12/42 to represent the probability of getting yellow.

Reduce 12/42 to get 2/7. You divide both parts by the GCF 6.

-------

Side note: if he did put the marbles back, then the probability of getting yellow would be 12/45 = 4/15

what is the height of a trapezoid with one base equal to 20m, the other base equal to 7m, and an area of 135m^2

Answers

Answer:

The height is 10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezoid is given by

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2} (a + b)h[/tex]

where

a and b are the bases

h is the height

From the question

A = 135 m²

a = 20m

b = 7 m

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the height

That's

[tex]135 = \frac{1}{2} (20 + 7)h \\ 135 = \frac{1}{2} \times 27h \\ 135 \times 2 = 2 \times \frac{1}{2} \times 27h \\ 270 = 27h[/tex]

Divide both sides by 27

That's

[tex] \frac{27h}{27} = \frac{270}{27} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

10 m

1. The ages of Sonal and Manoj are in the ratio of 7:5. Ten years hence, the ratio of their ages will be 9:7. Find the present age ​

Answers

Answer:

Ratio of present ages of Sonal and Manoj = 7:5

Let us consider the ages of Sonal and Manoj to be 7x yrs. and 5x yrs. respectively.

After 10 years, ratio of their ages = 9:7

A/q,  7x+10/5x+10 = 9/7

or     9 (5x+10) = 7 (7x+10)

or     45x + 90 = 49x + 70

or      49x - 45x = 90 - 70

or      4x = 20

or       x  =  20/4  =  5 .

Therefore, present age of Sonal = 7x yrs. = 7 x 5 yrs. = 35 yrs.

                    present age of Manoj = 5x yrs. = 5 x 5 yrs. = 25 yrs.

Let ABC be a triangle such that AB=13 BC=14 and CA=15. D is a point on BC such that AD Bisects

Answers

Answer:

Area of triangle ADC  is 54 square unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question:

Let ABC be a triangle such that AB=13, BC=14, and CA=15. D is a point on BC such that AD bisects angle A. Find the area of triangle ADC .

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see the attachment below for an illustrative diagram

Considering the diagram,

BC = BD + DC = 14

Let BD be [tex]x[/tex] ; hence, DC will be [tex]14-x[/tex]

and AD be [tex]y[/tex]

To, find the area of triangle ADC

Area of triangle ADC  = [tex]\frac{1}{2} (DC)(AD)[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{2}(14-x)(y)[/tex]

We will have to determine [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex]

First we will find the area of triangle ABC

The area of triangle ABC can be determined using the Heron's formula.

Given a triangle with a,b, and c

[tex]Area =\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex]

Where [tex]s = \frac{a+b+c}{2}[/tex]

For the given triangle ABC

Let [tex]a[/tex] = AB, [tex]b[/tex] = BC, and [tex]c[/tex] = CA

Hence, [tex]a = 13, b= 14,[/tex] and [tex]c = 15[/tex]

∴ [tex]s = \frac{13+14+15}{2} \\s= \frac{42}{2}\\s = 21[/tex]

Then,

Area of triangle ABC = [tex]\sqrt{(21)(21-13)(21-14)(21-15)}[/tex]

Area of triangle ABC = [tex]\sqrt{(21)(8)(7)(6)}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{7056}[/tex]

Area of triangle ABC = 84 square unit

Now, considering the diagram

Area of triangle ABC = Area of triangle ADB + Area of triangle ADC

Area of triangle ADB = [tex]\frac{1}{2} (BD)(AD)[/tex]

Area of triangle ADB = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(x)(y)[/tex]

Hence,

Area of triangle ABC =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}(x)(y)[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{2}(14-x)(y)[/tex]

84 =   [tex]\frac{1}{2}(x)(y)[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{2}(14-x)(y)[/tex]

∴ [tex]84 = \frac{1}{2}(xy) + 7y - \frac{1}{2}(xy)[/tex]

[tex]84 = 7y\\y = \frac{84}{7}[/tex]

∴ [tex]y = 12[/tex]

Hence, [tex]y =[/tex] AD = 12

Now, we can find BD

Considering triangle ADB,

From Pythagorean theorem,

/AB/² = /AD/² + /BD/²

∴13² = 12² + /BD/²

/BD/² = 169 - 144

/BD/ = [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex]

/BD/ = 5

But, BD + DC = 14

Then, DC = 14 - BD = 14 - 5

BD = 9

Now, we can find the area of triangle ADC

Area of triangle ADC  = [tex]\frac{1}{2} (DC)(AD)[/tex]

Area of triangle ADC  = [tex]\frac{1}{2} (9)(12)[/tex]

Area of triangle ADC  = 9 × 6

Area of triangle ADC  = 54 square unit

Hence, Area of triangle ADC  is 54 square unit.
