An airplane is preparing to land at an airport. It is 44,8000 feet above the ground and is descending at the rate of 3,100 feet per minute. At the same​ airport, another airplane is taking off and will ascend at the rate of 2,500 feet per minute. When will the two airplanes be at the same altitude and what will that altitude​ be? Use two other methods to solve the problem. Explain which methods are easier to use and which are more difficult to use for the situation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Time: 8 minutes

Altitude: 20000ft

Method 1 is easiest

Method 3 is easiest

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Airplane 1:

[tex]Height = 44800 ft[/tex]

[tex]Descending\ Rate = 3100ft/min[/tex]

Airplane 2:

[tex]Ascending\ Rate = 2500ft/min[/tex]

Required

Determine when both planes would be at the same altitude?

Let the minute be represented by m

For Airplane 1, Its altitude at any height h is:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = Height - Descending\ Rate * m[/tex]

It is minus (-) because the airplane is descending

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100 * m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

For Airplane 2, Its altitude at any height h is:

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = Ascending\ Rate * m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500 * m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

Method 1:

For both heights to be equal, we have that:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = Airplane\ 2[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]44800 - 3100m = 2500m[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]44800 = 2500m + 3100m[/tex]

[tex]44800 = 5600m[/tex]

[tex]5600m = 44800[/tex]

[tex]m = 44800/5600[/tex]

[tex]m = 8\ min[/tex]

Hence, the time they will be at the same altitude is 8 minutes

Substitute 8 for m in

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 20000\ ft[/tex]

Hence, they will be at the same altitude at 20000ft

Method 2:

We have that:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

Since they are to be at the same altitude, then

The difference in their altitude must be 0

i.e.

[tex]Airplane\ 1 - Airplane\ 2 = 0[/tex]

This gives

[tex]44800 - 3100m - 2500m = 0[/tex]

[tex]44800 - 5600m = 0[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]5600m = 44800[/tex]

[tex]m = 44800/5600[/tex]

[tex]m = 8\ min[/tex]

Substitute 8 for m in

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 24800[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 20000\ ft[/tex]

Method 3:

We have that:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

Since they are to be at the same altitude, then

The ratio of their altitudes must be 1

i.e.

[tex]\frac{Airplane\ 1}{Airplane\ 2} = 1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{44800 - 3100m}{2500m} = 1[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]44800 - 3100m = 1 * 2500m[/tex]

[tex]44800 - 3100m = 2500m[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]44800 = 2500m + 3100m[/tex]

[tex]44800 = 5600m[/tex]

[tex]5600m = 44800[/tex]

[tex]m = 44800/5600[/tex]

[tex]m = 8\ min[/tex]

Substitute 8 for m in

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 24800[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 20000\ ft[/tex]

Hence;

Their altitudes must be 20000ft

Though the three methods applied uses the same logic at some point, the first method applied is still the easiest and it is a straight forward method that could be applied in solving the question.

Method 3 is the most difficult.

IX+XC= WHAT IS THE ANSWER

Answers

Answer: X googled it

Answer:  XCIX

This converts to the number 99

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

Explanation:

The upper case letter i means the number 1 in roman numerals. The X represents 10. The C represents 100.

I = 1

X = 10

C = 100

When we form something like IX, we have the smaller digit first and then a larger digit next. Whenever this happens, we subtract

IX = 10-1 = 9

Similarly

XC = 100-10 = 90

So we can see that

IX + XC = 9 + 90 = 99

---------------------------

Since XC is larger than IX, we list XC first when it comes to adding

In other words, we need to write IX+XC as XC+IX which collapses to XCIX

Placing XC next to IX without a plus sign implies the plus sign is there. This is effectively how roman numerals work (they are additive)

So,

XCIX = XC+IX = 90+9 = 99

Note how the XC takes care of the tens digit while IX takes care of the units digit.

Answer:

k = 0.2

A = (M / P₀) − 1

Step-by-step explanation:

dP/dt = kP

When t = 0, P = 1000 and dP/dt = 200.

200 = 1000k

k = 0.2

P = M / (1 + Ae⁻ᵏᵗ)

When t = 0, P = P₀.

P₀ = M / (1 + A)

1 + A = M / P₀

In​ 2012, the population of a city was 5.82 million. The exponential growth rate was 2.95% per year.
​a) Find the exponential growth function.
​b) Estimate the population of the city in 2018.
​c) When will the population of the city be ​million?
​d) Find the doubling time.

Answers

Answer:

a) P(t) = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=6.57e

0.0287t

b) P(6) = 7,805\ millionP(6)=7,805 million

c) t = 14.64\ yearst=14.64 years

d) t = 24.15\ yearst=24.15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The function of exponential growth for a population has the following formula:

P(t) = p_0e ^{rt}P(t)=p

0

e

rt

In this equation:

p_0p

0

is the initial population

r is the growth rate

t is the time in years

In this problem we know that

r = 2.87\% = 0.0287r=2.87%=0.0287

p_0= 6.57p

0

=6.57 million in the year 2012.

So the equation is:

P(t) = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=6.57e

0.0287t

Where t = 0t=0 represents the year 2012

b) If t = 0t=0 in 2012, then in 2018 t = 6t=6

The population in 2018 is:

\begin{gathered}P(t = 6) = 6.57e ^{0.0287(6)}\\\\P(6) = 7,805\ million\end{gathered}

P(t=6)=6.57e

0.0287(6)

P(6)=7,805 million

c) To know when the population is equal to 10 million we must equal P(t) to 10 and solve for t.

\begin{gathered}P(t) = 10 = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}\\\\\frac{10}{6.57} = e ^{0.0287t}\\\\ln(\frac{10}{6.57}) = 0.0287t\\\\t = \frac{ln(\frac{10}{6.57})}{0.0287}\end{gathered}

P(t)=10=6.57e

0.0287t

6.57

=e

0.0287t

ln(

)=0.0287t

t=

0.0287

ln(

6.57

10

)

t = 14.64\ yearst=14.64 years

d) The function is doubled when P(t) = 2p_0P(t)=2p

0

P(t) = 2(6.57) = 13.14 = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=2(6.57)=13.14=6.57e

0.0287t

We solve for t.

\begin{gathered}\frac{13.14}{6.57} = e ^{0.0287t}\\\\ln(\frac{13.14}{6.57}) = 0.0287t\\\\t = ln{13.14}{6.57})}{0.0287})\

end

{gathered}

6.57

Step 2.

Simplify. Subtract the numbers 3x =4x + 3

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

Divide both sides of the equation.
