The population of a certain community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. If the population has doubled in 5 years, how long will it take to triple?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]t=7.85 years[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write this rate as an ordinary differential equation.

[tex]\frac{dP}{dt}=aP[/tex]

Where a is proportional constant, P the population variable, and t the time.

[tex]\frac{dP}{P}=adt[/tex]

Integrating each side of the equation.

[tex]\int \frac{dP}{P}=\int adt[/tex]

[tex]ln(P)=at+c[/tex]

[tex]P=e^{at+c}[/tex]

[tex]P=e^{c}e^{at}=Ce^{at}[/tex]

To find C we need to use the initial condiction, it means evaluae P at t=0.

[tex]P_{0}=Ce^{0}=C[/tex]

[tex]P=P_{0}e^{at}[/tex]

Now, we use the sentence  the population has doubled in 5 years.

[tex]2P_{0}=P_{0}e^{a5}[/tex]

We can find "a" in this condition.

[tex]2=e^{a5}[/tex]

[tex]ln(2)=a5[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{ln(2)}{5}[/tex]

[tex]a=0.14[/tex]

Finally, let's find how long will it take to triple.

[tex]3P_{0}=P_{0}e^{0.14t}[/tex]

[tex]3=e^{0.14t}[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{ln(3)}{0.14}[/tex]

[tex]t=7.85 years[/tex]

I hope it helps you!

Find the scale factor of PQRS to JKLM and the values of w, x, and y.

Answers

D cause Times x by y and your answer should be

The scale factor of PQRS to JKLM is 4/5 and the values of w, x and y are 20, 12.5 and 20 respectively.

What is Scale Drawing?

A scale drawing is a drawing made by enlarging or reducing the size of the original object.

The factor by which the drawing is enlarged or reduced is called the scale factor.

Given two quadrilaterals PQRS and JKLM.

Since the shape is similar, the angles are equal and thus are similar figures.

The corresponding sides of two similar figures are proportional.

Scale factor of PQRS to JKLM = QR / KL = 12 / 15 = 4/5

Using the proportional rule for similar figures,

KL / QR = LM /RS  = MJ / SP = JK / PQ

15 / 12 = x / 10 = y / 16 = 25 / w

Scale factor = 15/12 = 5/4

Consider 15 / 12 = x / 10.

12x = 150

x = 12.5

Consider 15 / 12 = y / 16

12y = 15 × 16

y = 20

Consider 15 / 12 = 25 / w

15w = 12 × 25

w = 20

Hence the option d is the correct answer.

We know two similar planer figures are congruent when we have sides or angles or both that are the same as the corresponding sides or angles or both.

Given, Line segment QR is parallel to line segment ST.

Line segment RS is parallel to line segment TU, And line segment QS is similar to line segment SU.

Answer:

x²/4 + y²/16 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Foci on the y axis: major axis parallel to y axis

x²/b² + y²/a² = 1

x²/4 + y²/16 = 1

The required equation of an ellipse is given by x²/4 + y²/16 = 1

Given that,
Length of the major axis: 4 Length of the minor axis: 2 Foci are on the y-axis with center (0,0)​, the equation of the ellipse is to be determined.0

What is an ellipse?

Ellipse is defined as the cross-section of the cone when cutting it with a plane parallel to its base.

Here,
Standard equation of the ellipse with origin as the center,
x²/a² + y²/b² = 1
where a and b are the minor and major axis of the ellipse.
From the given, we have a = 2 and b = 4

Answers

Answer:

Factoring the trinomial: [tex]x^2+13x+12[/tex] we get the factors [tex]\mathbf{(x+1)(x+12)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor the trinomial: [tex]x^2+13x+12[/tex]

We can factor the trinomial by breaking the middle term i.e 13x

Such that adding or subtracting gets the both terms we get 13x and multiplying both terms we get 12x^2

We can break 13x as: 12x and x

Adding them we get 13x and multiplying them we get 12x^2

So,

[tex]x^2+13x+12\\=x^2+12x+x+12\\=x(x+12)+1(x+12)\\=(x+1)(x+12)[/tex]

So, Factoring the trinomial: [tex]x^2+13x+12[/tex] we get the factors [tex]\mathbf{(x+1)(x+12)}[/tex]

Find the value of x.

Answers

Given:

Figure of a triangle.

To find:

The values of x.

Solution:

In the figure, we have an angle bisector.

According to the angle bisector theorem, an angle bisector of a triangle always divides the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

Using angle bisector theorem, we get

[tex]\dfrac{x}{7}=\dfrac{15}{14}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 7.

[tex]x=\dfrac{15}{14}\times 7[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{15}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=7.5[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is 7.5 units.
