The price of gas on Wednesday was $2.03/gallon. On Friday, the price of gas was $2.26. What is the percent change in the price of gas?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Percent change in the price of gas is [tex]9.85\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage change equals the change in value divided by the absolute value of the original value, multiplied by [tex]100[/tex] .

[tex]\text { Percentage Change }=\frac{\Delta V}{\left|V_{1}\right|} \times 100[/tex]

Here

[tex]\Delta V=2.26-2.03\\\\=0.23\$/gallon[/tex]

[tex]V_{1}=2.03\$/gallon[/tex]

The percent change in the price of gas

[tex]=\frac{0.23}{2.03} \times100\\\\=9.85\%[/tex]

Percent change in the price of gas is [tex]9.85\%[/tex]

After sitting in a refrigerator for a while, a turkey at a temperature of 34^\circ34

F is placed on the counter and slowly warms closer to room temperature (67^\circ67

F). Newton's Law of Heating explains that the temperature of the turkey will increase proportionally to the difference between the temperature of the turkey and the temperature of the room, as given by the formula below:

The turkey reaches the temperature of 45^\circ45

The temperature of the body after 60 minutes is  60.5° F.

Using the Newton's law of cooling;

T(t) =[tex]Ts + (To - Ts)e^-kt[/tex]

T(t) = temperature at time t

Ts = temperature of the surrounding

To = Temperature of object

t = time taken

k = cooling constant

Now;

In order to round, we need to remember how to round numbers:

If the digit is less than 5, the number to the left stays the same.If the digit is greater than, or equal to 5, the number to the left rounds up, or increases by 1.

Answers

From the given diagram, the following statements are true:

AB = BC

3y = 5y - 22

3y - 5y = -22

-2y = -22

y = 11

Similarly, m<DBE = 50 degrees

m<BED = 90 - m<DBE

m<BED = 90 - 50

m<BED = 40 degrees

Since BE = BC = 3y

BE = BC = 3(11) = 33

Also, 7x  - 2 = 40

7x = 40 + 2

7x = 42

Part B: approx. 13 years

C. Part A: 11,571 people in 2010;

Answers

The population of the town be in 2010 will be 121634, and it will take 21 years for the population to get to 50000

The population model is given as:

[tex]P(x) = 3485e^{0.125x}[/tex]

(a) The population in 2010

In 2010, the value of x is 10.

So, we have:

[tex]P(10) = 3485 * e^{(0.125 \times 10)}[/tex]

Evaluate the exponent

[tex]P(10) = 3485 * e^{(1.25)}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]P(10) = 121634[/tex]

(b) Year to reach 50000

This means that P = 50000.

So, we have:

[tex]50000 = 3485e^{0.125x}[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 3485

[tex]14.35 = e^{0.125x}[/tex]

Take natural logarithm of both sides

[tex]\ln(14.35) =0.125x[/tex]

[tex]2.66 =0.125x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.125

[tex]21.28 = x[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]x =21.28[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]x =21[/tex]

Hence, the population of the town be in 2010 will be 121634, and it will take 21 years for the population to get to 50000

A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem. The formula to calculate the probability of occurrence of an event 'A' can be written as -  

        P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

        where -

        n(A) = Number of outcomes favorable to event A.

       n(S) = Total number of outcomes

We have 16 silver cars, 8 blue cars and 10 red cars in a parking lot.

[A] -

P{silver} = 8/(16 + 8 + 10) = 8/34

[B] -

Explanation:

For each point, multiply each x,y coordinate by 0.25 (the scale factor) to dilate the preimage to the image. This will shrink the image because the positive scale factor is less than 1.

So for instance, point J(3,2) will have this scratch work

meaning J(3,2) moves to J ' (0.75, 0.5)
