A population of flies grows according to the function p(x) = 2(4)x, where x is measured in weeks. A local spider has set up shop and consumes flies according to the function s(x) = 2x + 5. What is the population of flies after two weeks with the introduced spider?

Answers

Answer 1
well, the spider  is "consuming flies", so we'd have to subtract those flies the spider is picking up, that is 2x + 5, x = weeks.

now, after two weeks, x = 2

A basketball is thrown with an initial upward velocity of 25 feet per second from a height of 8 feet above the ground. The equation h=-16t^2+25t+8 models the height in feet t seconds after it is thrown. After the ball passes its maximum height, it comes down and then goes into the hoop at a height of 10 feet above the ground. About how long after it was thrown does it go into the hoop?

Answers

So we want to know the later time when h=10 so

10=-16t^2+25t+8

16t^2-25t+2=0

Using the quadratic formula for expediency...

t=(25±√497)/32, we want the time when it was falling so

t=(25+√497)/32

t≈1.48 seconds (to nearest hundredth of a second)

Answer:

A quadratic equation is in the form of [tex]ax^2+bx+c =0[/tex]........[1], then the solution for this equation is given by:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

As per the statement:

The equation is given by:

[tex]h=-16t^2+25t+8[/tex]

where, h is the height in feet t seconds after it is thrown.

After the ball passes its maximum height, it comes down and then goes into the hoop at a height of 10 feet above the ground.

⇒h = 10 feet

then;

[tex]-16t^2+25t+8=10[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides we have;

[tex]16t^2-25t+2=0[/tex]

On comparing this equation with [1] we have;

a =16 , b =-25 and c =2

then;

[tex]t= \frac{25 \pm \sqrt{(-25)^2-4(16)(2)}}{2(16)}[/tex]

⇒[tex]t= \frac{25 \pm \sqrt{625-128}}{32}[/tex]

⇒[tex]t= \frac{25 \pm \sqrt{497}}{32}[/tex]

as we want the time when it was falling so ,

[tex]t= \frac{25 + \sqrt{497}}{32}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]t \approx 1.48[/tex] sec

Therefore, 1.48 sec long after it was thrown does it go into the hoop

yesterday's low temperature was -2.5 degrees celsius. today's low temperature is 5 times as low as yesterday's low temperature. what was the low temperature today?

Answers

The temperature is -12.5 degrees Celsius.

Answer:

The temperature is -12.5 degrees Celsius.

Step-by-step explanation:

The daily maximum temperature, or high, describes how warm you can expect the air to be, usually from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The daily minimum temperature, or low, tells how much the air is expected to cool, usually overnight from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.

a plane takes 2hr to travel 1000mi with the wind. it can travel only 880mi against the wind in the same amount of time. find the speed of the wind and the speed of the plane in still air

Answers

recall  your d = rt, distance = rate * time

so... let's say, the plane's speed in still air is "p", and the speed of the wind is "w".

when the plane is travelling with the wind over those 1000 miles, is really not going "p" fast, is going " p + w " fast, since it's going with the wind.

now, when the plane is travelling against the wind, is not going "p" fast either, is going " p - w " fast, since the wind is subtracting speed from it.

bearing in mind he cover the 1000 miles as well as the 880 miles in 2 hrs each way.

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{lccclll} &distance&rate&time\\ &-----&-----&-----\\ \textit{with the wind}&1000&p+w&2\\ \textit{against the wind}&880&p-w&2 \end{array} \\\\\\ \begin{cases} 1000=2(p+w)\\ \qquad 500=p+w\\ \qquad 500-p=\boxed{w}\\ 880=2(p-w)\\ ----------\\ \frac{880}{2}=p-w\\ 440=p-\left( \boxed{ 500-p }\right) \end{cases} \\\\\\ 940=2p\implies \cfrac{940}{2}=p\implies 470=p[/tex]

what's the speed of the wind?  well, 500 - p = w.

Stacy is walking his dog on a path and his dog wiggled out of his collar. If the dog is 30 feet lower than the owner and the angle of elevation from the dog to the owner is 10 degrees, find the distance from the dog to the owner.

Answers

It would be best to draw the problem described above. Sketching it, you will see that a right triangle would be formed from the description where the vertical distance of the dog to its owner is the height of the triangle and the angle of elevation of the triangle would be 10 degrees. The hypotenuse of the triangle represents the distance of the dog from its owner. By using trigonometric functions, we can easily calculate for this value. We use the sine function which is equal to the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.

sine 10 = 30 feet / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 172.76 feet ( distance of the dog to its owner )

Hello.

We have a function y = f(x), that associates for each value of x a value in y. We represent this in a ordered pair (x, y). In this exercise, we have the price in function of the number of lines, so, the first element of the pair is the number of lines and the following is the price.

r=800/4

r=200 ft/hr

200 feet per hour.

Answer: 200 ft per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : You are hiking on a trail that leads to the top of a mountain.

At 12 P.M. you reach an elevation of 3700 feet. At 4 P.M. you reach an elevation of 4500 feet.

The formula for the mean hourly change in elevation is :-

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Change in elevation}}{\text{Time in hours}}[/tex]

From the given information, the change in elevation=4500 ft-3700 ft= 800 ft

Time taken = 4 hours   [From 12 pm to 4 pm]

Now, Mean hourly change in elevation=[tex]\dfrac{800}{4}=200[/tex]

The units digit of a perfect square is 6. What are the possible values of the tens digit?

Answers

Final answer:

The tens digit of a perfect square with a units digit of 6 could be any digit from 0 to 9. This is because when numbers ending in either 4 or 6 are squared, the tens digit can take any value in the range of 0-9 due to the cyclic nature of the squares.

Explanation:

The units digit of a perfect square can be 6, and this occurs when a number ending in either 4 or 6 is squared since 42 is 16 and 62 is 36. Considering this, the possible values for the tens digit of a perfect square with a units digit of 6 could be derived from these squares. For the tens digit, we must look at the squares of numbers ending in 4 or 6 and check the ten's place of the resulting product.

For example, if we consider 142 (which is 196) and 162 (which is 256), the tens digit can be either 9 or 5. Continuing with this pattern for numbers ending in 4 or 6 all the way to 942 and 962, we find that the tens digit is cyclic and can be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9. Therefore, all ten digits are possible for the tens place of a number whose square ends in 6.

If the constant c is chosen so that the curve given parametrically by ct, c 2 8 t 2 , 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 , is the arc of the parabola 8y = x 2 from (0, 0) to (4, 2), find the coordinates of the point p on this arc corresponding to t = 2.

Answers

Since the parabola is given by [tex]8y=x^2[/tex], and [tex]x[/tex] is parameterized by [tex]x(t)=ct[/tex], it follows that when [tex]t=3[/tex] and [tex]x=4[/tex], we have

[tex]4=3c\implies c=\dfrac43[/tex]

So when [tex]t=2[/tex], the [tex]x[/tex]-coordinate of the point [tex]p[/tex] would be

[tex]x=\dfrac43(2)=\dfrac83[/tex]

I'm not sure how [tex]y[/tex] is parameterized, but my best guess is that you mean to say

[tex]y(t)=\dfrac{c^2}8t^2[/tex]

which means when [tex]t=2[/tex] we would get a [tex]y[/tex]-coordinate of

[tex]y=\dfrac{\left(\frac43\right)^2}82^2=\dfrac89[/tex]
Final answer:

By solving the given equations using the provided information, and assuming the constant c = 4/3, we can find the coordinates of the point P on the curve corresponding to t = 2 are (8/3, 32/9). There is a probable discrepancy in the question which causes two different solutions for c, therefore making the canonical form of the parabola ambiguous.

Explanation:

The given parametric curve has its equations as x = ct and y = c/8 * t^2. We're given that it's the arc of the parabola 8y = x^2 from (0, 0) to (4, 2), meaning that we can set x = ct = 4 and y = c/8 * t^2 = 2 when t=3 (the upper limit of t) to find the value of the constant c. Solving these equations gives c=4/3 and c=48. Since c must be the same in both equations, there seems to be a discrepancy here, which could possibly originate from a mistake in the question. However, if we only use c from the first equation (x = ct), we get c = 4/3.

The question asks for the coordinates of the point on the curve corresponding to t = 2. Substituting t = 2 into x = ct and y = c/8 * t^2 gives x = 8/3 and y = 32/9, assuming c = 4/3. So, the coordinates of the point would be (8/3, 32/9).

A video game sets the points needed to reach the next level based on the function g(x) = 7(3)^x − 1, where x is the current level. The hardest setting promises to multiply the points needed in each level according to the function h(x) = 4x. How many points will a player need on the hardest setting of level 4?

Answers

well, using the current level function of g(x), the player on level 4 will then need 7(3)⁴-1 to get to the next level.

however, if the player is using the hardest setting, the hardest setting promises to quadruple any points on the current level, so, he/she will only need a quarter of 7(3)⁴-1.

now, 7(3)⁴-1 is 566, however, you don't need all 566 in hardest setting, you can do with only 566/4, since the hardest setting will give you 4x or quadruple of the amount of points.

A player will need 2,264 points on the hardest setting of level 4 as calculated by evaluating g(4) using the function g(x) = 7(3)^x - 1 and then applying the function h(x) = 4x.

To calculate the number of points a player will need on the hardest setting of level 4, we need to consider the function h(x) = 4x provided in the context of the question. However, the question also mentions the function g(x) = 7(3)^x - 1, which indicates the points needed to reach the next level normally. Since we need to find the hardest setting value, we will use the function h(x) but before that, we need to evaluate g(4) to find out the base points at level 4.

To find g(4), we substitute x = 4 into g(x):

g(4) = 7(3)^4 - 1 = 7(81) - 1 = 567 - 1 = 566

Now we apply the function h(x) to this value to get the points on the hardest setting:

h(g(4)) = 4 × 566 = 2264

Therefore, a player will need 2,264 points on the hardest setting of level 4.
