Answers

Answer 1

A city starts with a population of 500,000 people in 2007. Its population declines according to the equation

P(t) = 500,000e -0.099t

where P is the population in t years later. Approximately when will the population be half the initial amount?

Answer:

2014

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the exponential growth function :

P(t) = 500,000e^-0.099t

Where P is population in t years later

When the population will 1/2 the initial amount

1/2 the initial amount = 1/2 * 500,000 = 250,000

P(t) = 250,000

250,000 = 500000e^-0.099t

250,000/500000 = e^-0.099t

In(0.5) = - 0.099t

t = −0.69314 / - 0.099

t = 7.0014

t = 7

Year which population = 500,000 = 2007

Hence, half the population will be attained on (2007 + 7) = 2014

Answer 2

After 7 years population of the city will be half of the initial amount.

Population function:

[tex]P(t) = 500000 e^{-0.099t}[/tex]

Initial population means population at t=0

P(0) = 500000

Half of initial population = 250000

So, we need to calculate the time t when the population will be half of the initial amount.

[tex]250000= 500000 e^{-0.099t}\\\\e^{-0.099t} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Taking log both sides

-0.099t (log e)= log (1/2)

What is the logarithm of e?

The logarithm of e is 1 when considering the base of the log as e.

So, -0.099 t= -0.693

t=7

Therefore, After 7 years population of the city will be half of the initial amount.

John is playing a game of darts. The probability that he throws a dart into the center of the dart board (the Bull’s eye) is. The probability that he throws the dart into the 10-point ring is. What is the probability that he either hits a Bull’s eye or scores 10 points?.

Answers

The probability that the John either hits a Bull’s eye or scores 10 points in the game of darts is 2/5.

What is probability?

Probability of an event is the ratio of number of favorable outcome to the total number of outcome of that event. The probability of an event can not be more than the number 1.

John is playing a game of darts. In this game of dart,

The probability that he throws a dart into the center of the dart board (the Bull’s eye) is 1/10. The probability that he throws the dart into the 10-point ring is 3/10.

The probability that he either hits a Bull’s eye or scores 10 points is equal to the sum of the probability he hits the bull's eye and the probability that he throws the dart into the 10-points ring.

Let, the probability that he either hits a Bull’s eye or scores 10 points is P. Thus,

[tex]P=\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{3}{10}\\P=\dfrac{4}{10}\\P=\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the John either hits a Bull’s eye or scores 10 points in the game of darts is 2/5.

We know that:

Since the LHS and the RHS are equal, they form a proportion[tex]\text{a:b} = \text{c:d} \rightarrow \text{ad} = \text{bc}[/tex]

To find x, let's multiply the extremes and put the product on one side. Then multiply the middles and put the product on the other side.

A=pi×r^2

A2_A1=Area difference

A(diff)/A1×100=96.01%

[tex]r_{2}[/tex]Answer:

D) 96%

Step-by-step explanation:

let the circumference of circle be C = 2π[tex]r_{1}[/tex] and   [tex]r_{1}[/tex] =   [tex]d_{1}[/tex]/2

Initial radius (radius before increment) = [tex]r_{1}[/tex]

initial diameter (diameter before increment) = [tex]d_{1}[/tex]

Increasing the circumference of a circle other factors are constant except the radius which can be used to find the diameter hence increasing the circumference of a circle is equivalent to increasing the diameter

area of the circle before increment [tex]A_{1}[/tex] = π[tex]r_{1}[/tex]²

[tex]A_{1}[/tex] = π × ([tex]d_{1}[/tex]/2)²

[tex]A_{1}[/tex] = π[tex]d_{1}[/tex]²/4

Increment of circumference results to increment of only the diameter

diameter after increment by 40%, [tex]d_{2}[/tex] = 1.4[tex]d_{1}[/tex]

1.4 represents increment by 40%

radius after increment [tex]r_{2}[/tex]  =  [tex]d_{2}[/tex]/2 = 1.4[tex]d_{1}[/tex]/2 = 0.7[tex]d_{1}[/tex]

area after increment, [tex]A_{2}[/tex] = π[tex]r^{2} _{2}[/tex]

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] = π(0.7[tex]d_{1}[/tex])²

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] = π × 0.49[tex]d_{1}[/tex]²

Change in area =  [tex]A_{2}[/tex] - [tex]A_{1}[/tex]  

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] - [tex]A_{1}[/tex] = π ×  0.49[tex]d_{1}[/tex]² - π [tex]d_{1}[/tex]²/4

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] - [tex]A_{1}[/tex]  = π [tex]d_{1}[/tex]²(0.49 - ¼)

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] - [tex]A_{1}[/tex]  = π [tex]d_{1}[/tex]²(0.49 - 0.25)

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] - [tex]A_{1}[/tex]   = 0.24 π[tex]d_{1}[/tex]²

Percentage increment = ([tex]A_{2}[/tex] - [tex]A_{1}[/tex]/ [tex]A_{1}[/tex]) × 100

= ((0.24 π[tex]d_{1}[/tex]²)/(π[tex]d_{1}[/tex]²/4)) × 100

= (0.24 × 4 ) × 100

= 0.96 × 100

= 96 %

Central angle BAC of circle A measures 20" radians. Arc BC has a length of 63.487 centimeters. What is the radius of the circle?
The radius of circle A is ✓ centimeters.

Answers

Answer:

r = 55.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the arc length is calculated as

arc = circumference × fraction of circle

     = 2πr × [tex]\frac{\frac{23}{20}\pi }{2\pi }[/tex] ( r is the radius )

given arc = 63.48π , then

2πr × [tex]\frac{\frac{23}{20}\pi }{2\pi }[/tex] = 63.48π ( cancel 2π on numerator/ denominator )

r × [tex]\frac{23}{20}[/tex] π = 63.48π ( divide both sides by π )

[tex]\frac{23r}{20}[/tex] = 63.48 ( multiply both sides by 20 to clear the fraction )

23r = 1269.6 ( divide both sides by 23 )

r = 55.2 cm

Distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property states that,

multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.

That is,

a(b + c) = ab + ac

3 avocados cost $0.40 each

3x0.40

= $1.2

5 lemons cost $0.40 each.

5x0.40

= $2

Total = $1.2 + $2

= $3.2

Using distributive property

(3+5)0.40

= 8(0.40)

= $3.2
