The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. The initial population P0 has doubled in 5 years. Suppose it is known that the population is 9,000 after 3 years.

Required:
a, What was the initial population P0?
b. How fast is the population growing at t = 10?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial population of a community be P0 and the population after time t is P(t).

If the population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t, this is expressed as:

[tex]P(t) = P_0e^{kt}[/tex]

at t = 5 years, P(t) = 2P0

substitute:

[tex]2P_0 = P_0e^{5k}\\2 = e^{5k}\\ln2 = lne^{5k}\\ln2 = 5k\\k = \frac{ln2}{5}\\k = 0.1386[/tex]

If the population is 9,000 after 3 years

at t = 3, P(t) = 9000

a) Substitute into the formula to get P0

[tex]9000 = P_0e^{0.1386\times 3}\\9000 = P_0e^{0.4158}\\9000 = 1.5156P_0\\P_0 = \frac{9000}{1.5156}\\ P_0 = 5938.24[/tex]

Hence the initial population is approximately 5938.

b) In order to know how fast the population growing at t = 10, we will substitute t = 10 into the formula as shown:

[tex]P(10) = 5938.24e^{0.1386(10)}\\P(10) = 5938.24e^{1.386}\\P(10) = 5938.24(3.9988)\\P(10) = 23,745.97[/tex]

Hence the population of the community after 10 years is approximately 23,746

from each acre of corn, what planting combination will produce the greatest total profit? (Profit here is revenue plus leftover capital and labor cash reserve.) What is

the maximum profit?

orn

Answers

Answer:

$6049.63

Step-by-step explanation:

the objective is to maximize profit

let x be corn and y be oat

let us begging by formulating the linear program for the problem

The objective function is

  111x+47y=P

The constraints are

1. capital

 36x+18y=2100------------1

2. labor

6x(8)+2y(8)=2400

48x+16y=2400-------------2

solving 1 and 2 we apply substitution method

36x+18y=2100------1

36x=2100-18y

x=(2100-18y)/36

put x=(2100-18y)/36 in 2 we have

48(2100-18y)/36+16y=2400

(100800-864y)/36+16y=2400

2800-24y+16y=2400

-8y=2400-2800

-8y=-400

8y=400

y=400/8

y=50

to find x put y=50 in 36x+18y=2100------------1

36x+18(50)=2100------------1

36x+900=2100

36x=2100-900

36x=1200

x=1200/36

x=33.33

profit is

111x+47y=P

111(33.33)+47(50)=P

(a) What percentage of meals had less than 10 grams of fat? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

of the meals studied, 1% of them had less than 10 grams of fat.

Answers

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What percentage of meals had less than 10 grams of fat?

(b) Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

To find the percentage of meals with less than 10 grams of fat, count the number of meals with less than 10 grams of fat and divide by the total number of meals; multiply this figure by a hundred.

(A) Total number of meals = 550

Number of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77

Percentage of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77/550 × 100

= 0.14 × 100 = 14%

(B) Rounding the answer to the nearest tenth of a percent means approximating it to the nearest multiple of 10 that is not more than 100 (where 100 here represents a full cent or 'percent').

The multiples of 10 that are close to 14 are 10 and 20. The closest being 10, your answer becomes 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope equals rise over run, which means the change in y for every x value. On the table, we see that y increases by 10 and x increases by 2, so that would be 10/2. However, the slope must be shown in the simplest form so divide the fraction by 2 to get the final slope, 5/1=5.

To get the intercept you must find when x=0. Since the lowest x-value on the graph is 2 we need to subtract the slope twice to get to zero. So 10-5-5, which equals 0.

The equation would be y=5x.

Suppose the average yearly salary of an individual whose final degree is a​ master's is ​$40 thousand less than twice that of an individual whose final degree is a​ bachelor's. Combined, two people with each of these educational attainments earn ​$119 thousand. Find the average yearly salary of an individual with each of these final degrees. HELP ME!

Answers

Bachelor's degree salary = $53000

Master's degree salary = $66000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Let Salary of bachelor's degree holder = x

Salary of Master's degree holder = 2x - 40000

Master's salary + bachelor's salary = $119,000

Hence,

Master's salary + bachelor's salary = 119,000

2x - 40000 + x = 119,000

3x = 119000 + 40000

3x = 159000

x = 159000 / 3

x = $53,000

Bachelor's degree salary = $53,000

Master's degree salary ; 2x - 40000 ; 2(53000) - 40000 = $106,000 - $40,000 = $66000

Find the midpoint M of the line segment joining the points P = (3, - 7) and Q = (-7, 1).

Answers

Answer:

The answer is (-2 , - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

[tex]M = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \: \frac{y1 + y2}{2} ) \\ [/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

So we have

[tex]m = ( \frac{3 - 7}{2} , \frac{ - 7 + 1}{2} ) \\ = ( - \frac{4}{2} , - \frac{6}{2} )[/tex]

We have the final answer as

( - 2 , - 3)

Hope this helps you

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The given points are; P(3,-7) and Q(-7,1)

Note: Use midpoint formula.

[tex]midpoint(x,y) = (\frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )[/tex]

Put all values.

[tex](x,y) =( \frac{3 - 7}{2} , \frac{ - 7 + 1}{2} )[/tex]

Simplify it.

[tex](x,y) = (-2 , - 3[/tex])

Therefore, midpoint is (-2 ,-3).

A racing car consumes a mean of 106 gallons of gas per race with a standard deviation of 6 gallons. If 33 racing cars are randomly selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would be greater than 103.7 gallons? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P(\= X  > 103.7  )  =   0.9862 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The population mean is  [tex]\mu =  106 \  gallons[/tex]

   The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma  =  6 \ gallons[/tex]

    The sample size is  [tex]n  =  33[/tex]

   

Generally the standard deviation of sample mean is mathematically represented as  

        [tex]\sigma_{x} = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>      [tex]\sigma_{x} = \frac{6}{\sqrt{33} }[/tex]

=>      [tex]\sigma_{x} = 1.044[/tex]

Generally the probability that the sample mean would be greater than 103.7 gallons is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P(\= X  > 103.7  )  =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma_{x}} > \frac{103.7  -  106}{1.044 }  )[/tex]

Generally  [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma_{x}}  =  Z (The \  standardized \  value \  of  \= X )[/tex]

So

[tex]P(\= X  > 103.7  )  =  P(Z > -2.203 )[/tex]

From the z table  the probability of (Z > -2.203 ) is  

     [tex]P(Z > -2.203 ) = 0.9862[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(\= X  > 103.7  )  =   0.9862 [/tex]

A polynomial function has roots -5 and 1. Which
of the following could represent this function?
f(x) = (x + 5)(x + 1)
f(x) = (x - 5)(x - 1)
f(x) = (x - 5)(x + 1)
f(x) = (x + 5Yx - 1)

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 5)(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 5)(x - 1) has the roots of -5 and 1, when you set each factor equal to zero.

x + 5 = 0

x = -5

So, -5 is a root of the function.

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

So, 1 is the other root of the function.

f(x) = (x + 5)(x - 1) is the polynomial function with the roots of -5 and 1

The equation for line A is shown below: Y= -2/3x-4 Line A and Line B are perpendicular, and the point (-2 , 1) lies on Line B. Which equation Below represents line B?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{7}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Line A:

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{3}x - 4[/tex]

Line B:

[tex](-2,1)[/tex]

Required

Determine the equation of Line B

First, we need to determine the slope of A using

[tex]y =mx + b[/tex]

Where:

[tex]m = slope[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{3}x - 4[/tex]

[tex]m = -\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Since A and B are perpendicular:

The slope of B (m2) is:

[tex]m_2 = \frac{-1}{m}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -1/\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -1 * \frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

The equation of B is calculated as thus:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

Where

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-2,1)[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

So, the equation becomes

[tex]y - 1 = \frac{2}{3}(x - (-2))[/tex]

[tex]y - 1 = \frac{2}{3}(x + 2)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y - 1 = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{4}{3} + 1[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{4 + 3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{7}{3}[/tex]

In 2016, Southwest Airlines boasted that 70% of its flights were on time. If we select 8 Southwest flights at random and assume independence, what is the probability that at least 3 flights are on time

Answers

Answer: 0.9887

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the probability that flights are on time.

As per given, p =70% = 0.7

Sample size : n = 8

Let x be a binomial variable that represents the number of fights are on time ( i.e. success).

Using binomial formula: [tex]P(X=x) = \ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Now,  the probability that at least 3 flights are on time = [tex]P(X\geq 3)=1-P(X<3)\\\\=1-[P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)]\\\\=1-[^8C_0(0.7)^0(0.3)^8+^8C_1(0.7)^1(0.3)^7+^8C_2(0.7)^2(0.3)^6]\\\\=1-[(0.3)^8+8(0.7)(0.3)^7+\dfrac{8!}{2!6!}(0.7)^2(0.3)^6]\\\\=1-[0.00006561+0.00122472+0.01000188]\\\\=1-0.01129221\\\\=0.98870779\approx\ 0.9887[/tex]

The probability that at least 3 flights are on time = 0.9887
