2) A farmhouse shelters 61 animals. Some are cows and some are ducks. Altogether there are
208 legs. How many of each animal are there?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
43 cows and 18 ducks

Explanation:
Let c represent the number of cows in the farmhouse.
Let d represent the number of ducks in the farmhouse.

We know that:
- there are a total of 61 animals in the farmhouse
- one cow has 4 legs
- one duck has 2 legs
- there are a total of 208 legs

Using the information above, we can create two equations:

c+d=61
4c+2d=208

1) multiply the first equation by 2
If we do this, both equations will have 2d and we can subtract them to solve for c.

c+d=61
2c+2d=122

2) Subtract the first equation from the second

4c+2d=208
2c+2d=122
2c=86
c=43

Therefore, the number of cows in the farmhouse is equal to 43.

2) plug 43 into the first equation to solve for d
We can plug 43 into either of the original questions to find the number of ducks, but in this case, it would be easier to solve for in the first equation.

c+d=61
43+d=61
Subtract both sides by 43
43+d-43=61-43
d=18

Therefore, the number of ducks in the farmhouse is equal to 18.

I hope this helps!

A hot air balloon rising vertically is tracked by an observer located 4 miles from the lift-off point. At a certain moment, the angle between the observer's line-of-sight and the horizontal is pi/6, and it is changing at a rate of 0.1 rad/min. How fast is the balloon rising at this moment?

Answers

Answer:

0.533 miles/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate how fast  the balloon is rising at the moment : dy /dt

location from the lift-off point = 4 miles

angle between the observer's line-of-sight and the horizontal ( ∅ )  = [tex]\frac{\pi }{6}[/tex]

d∅ / dt = 0.1 rad/min

tan ∅ = y / 4

derivate

sec^2 ∅ . d∅ / dt  = 1/4 . dy/dt

= sec^2 [tex]\frac{\pi }{6}[/tex] . 0.1 = 1/4 . dy/dt

= ( sec^2 0.5238 * 0.1 ) * 4 = dy/dt

dy/dt = 8 / 15  miles/min

Answers

Answer:

You will have 40 mins before 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of minutes taken to completely load is 60 minutes.

Given that, the virus is already 28% loaded if it is loaded at the rate of 12% every 10 minutes.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

Here,

Remaining virus to load =100-28

= 72

The rate of 12% every 10 minutes

Now, 72/12

= 6

So, 6×10 =60 minutes

Therefore, the number of minutes taken to completely load is 60 minutes.

Why are arithmetic sequences discrete data?

Answers

Answer:

If you take any number in the sequence then subtract it by the previous one, and the result is always the same or constant then it is an arithmetic sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A sequence is a discrete structure used to represent an ordered list.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete values are values between the terms if the sequences are not included in the sequence. If you collect all the terms of the sequence into a set, that set will always be discrete, because there's only countably many of them, and every interval is uncountable. So in that sense, yes, sequences are discrete. A sequence is a discrete structure used to represent an ordered list. A sequence is a function from a subset of the set of integers (usually either the set {0,1,2,. . .} or {1,2, 3,. . .}to a set S. We use the notation an to denote the image of the integer n. We call an a term of the sequence.

Find the amount to be paid at the end of eight years that is equivalent to a payment of $400 now and a payment of $300 at the end of four years

(c) Explain why the fact you get different answers in parts (a) and (b) does not contradict the fact that equations of value at different times are equiv- alent equations.
(d) Repeat parts (a) and (b) except replace "simple interest" with "compound interest."

Answers

Answer:

A) $964

B) $651.35

C)  The difference in value for part a and part b is due to time factor and the accumulated interest hence it is better to pay $651.35 right now than to pay $964 when you pay $400 now and $300 in four years time

D)  $1016.28 ,  $637.63

Step-by-step explanation:

lets assume the amount to be paid in eight years that is equivalent to payment of $400 now and a payment of $300 at the end of four ( 4 ) years ( FV )

a) since a 6% interest is earned each day of every payment

will use this formula : S = P( 1 + rt )

therefore  $400 paid today will a simple interest of = 400 * 0.06 * 8 = $192

$300 paid at the end of four years will earn a simple interest of = 300*0.06*4 = $72

hence FV = $ ( 400 + 192 ) + $ ( 300 + 72 ) = $964

b) when compared with eight years from now

PV = [tex]\frac{FV}{1+rt}[/tex]  = ($964) / ( 1 + (0.06*8) = $651.35

C) The difference in value for part a and part b is due to time factor and the accumulated interest hence it is better to pay $651.35 right now than to pay $964 when you pay $400 now and $300 in four years time

D) Repeating parts (a) and (b) using compound interest

using the formula : S = P( 1 + r )^t

therefore $400 paid today will have a compound interest of

= 400 ( 1.06)^8 = $637.54

$300 paid at the end of four years will earn a compound interest of

= 300 ( 1.06 ) ^4 = $378.74

hence FV = 637.54 + 378.74 = $1016.28

when compared with eight years from now

= [tex]\frac{FV}{(1+r)^t}[/tex]  = ( 1016.28 ) / ( 1.06 ) ^8    = $637.63

1. Delia purchased a new car for $23,350. This make and model straight line depreciates to zero after 13 years.
a. Identify the coordinates of the x- and y- intercepts for the depreciation equation.
b. Determine the slope of the depreciation.
c. Write the straight-line depreciation equation that models this situation.

Answers

Answer:

a. y-intercept = 23350 and x-intercept = 13

b. [tex]m = -\frac{23350}{13}[/tex]

c. [tex]y = -\frac{23350}{13}x + 23350[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Years = 13[/tex]

[tex]Total\ depreciation = \$23350[/tex]

Solving (a): The x and y intercepts

The y intercept is the initial depreciation value

i.e. when x = 0

This value is the value of the car when it was initially purchased.

Hence, the y-intercept = 23350

The x intercept is the year it takes to finish depreciating

i.e. when y = 0

From the question, we understand that it takes 13 years for the car to totally get depreciated.

Hence, the x-intercept = 13

Solving (b): The slope

The slope (m) is the rate of depreciation per year

This is calculated by dividing the total depreciation by the duration.

So:

[tex]m = \frac{23350}{13}[/tex]

Because it is depreciation, it means the slope represents a deduction.

So,

[tex]m = -\frac{23350}{13}[/tex]

Solving (c): The straight line equation

The general format of an equation is:

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

Where

[tex]m = slope[/tex]

[tex]b = y\ intercept[/tex]

In (a), we have that:

[tex]y\ intercept = 23350[/tex]

In (b), we have that:

[tex]Slope\ (m) = -\frac{23350}{13}[/tex]

Substitute these values in [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

[tex]y = -\frac{23350}{13}x + 23350[/tex]

Hence, the depreciation equation is: [tex]y = -\frac{23350}{13}x + 23350[/tex]
