A town’s population increases at a constant rate. In 2010 the population was 56,000. By 2012 the population had increased to 81,000. If this trend continues, predict the population in 2016.

Answers

Answer 1

The approximate population in 2016 is 91, 604 population

Let the time taken by the population to increase be "t"Let the number of the population be P

The exponential equation representing the statement is [tex]P=P_0e^t[/tex]

If in 2010 the population was 56,000, then at t = 0, P0 = 56000

Substituting into the formula will give:

P = 56000

If by 2012 the population had increased to 81,000, then:

81000 =  56000e^12k

81000/56000 = e^12k

1.4464 = e^12k

ln1.4464 = 12k

0.3691 = 12k

k = 0.3690/12

k = 0.03076

Get the prediction of the population in 2016.

[tex]P = 56000e^{16(0.03076)}\\P=56000e^{0.49213}\\P = 56000(1.6357)\\P = 91,603.70[/tex]

Hence the approximate population in 2016 is 91, 604 population

8. A company makes electronic components for TV's. 95% pass final inspection (and 5% fail and need to be fixed). 120 components are inspected in one day. (10 points) b.What is the variance of the number that pass inspection in one day

Answers

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that the variance of the number that pass inspection in one day is 5.7.

For each component, there are only two possible outcomes, either it passes inspection, or it does not. The probability of a component passing inspections is independent of any other component, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability, and has variance given by:

[tex]V(X) = np(1 - p)[/tex]

In this problem:

95% pass final inspection, hence [tex]p = 0.95[/tex]120 components are inspected in one day, hence [tex]n = 120[/tex].

The variance is given by:

[tex]V(X) = np(1 - p) = 120(0.95)(0.05) = 5.7[/tex]

The variance of the number that pass inspection in one day is 5.7.

Enter the scale factor applied to Figure A to produce Figure B.
Enter your answer as a fraction, like this: 42/53

Answers

Answer:    14/5

Explanation:

Divide the side length for B over the corresponding side length for A.

scale factor = B/A = 7/(2.5) = 2.8

Let's now convert this to a fraction

2.8 = 2 + 0.8 = 2 + 8/10 = 20/10 + 8/10 = (20+8)/10 = 28/10

Then reduce that fraction

28/10 = (14*2)/(5*2) = 14/5

Note that 14/5 = 2.8

The area

Answers

Answer:

946 square Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should split up the shape into parts.

1st part 28x7

2nd part 30x25

We are multplying simply because

Area = Length x Width

Now that we have split up the parts lets multply them and add them togeher.

28 x 7 =  196

30 x 25 = 750

196 +750 = 946

So the area of this figure is 946 square inches.

Find the value of Y​

Answers

Answer:

y=−9/7x+18/7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+7y+7x=18

9x+7y=18

Step 1: Add -9x to both sides.

9x+7y+−9x=18+−9x

7y=−9x+18

Step 2: Divide both sides by 7.

7y/7=−9x+18/7

y=−9/7x+18/7

Given :

2x + 7y + 7x = 18

To Find :

The value of y

Solution :

[tex]\qquad { \dashrightarrow \: { \sf{2x + 7y + 7x = 18}}}[/tex]

Adding the like terms :

[tex]\qquad { \dashrightarrow \: { \sf{ 7y + 9x = 18}}}[/tex]

Transposing 9y to the other side which then becomes negative :

[tex]\qquad { \dashrightarrow \: { \sf{ 7y = 18 - 9x}}}[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 7 :

[tex]\qquad { \dashrightarrow \: { \sf{ \dfrac{7y}{7} = \dfrac{18 - 9x}{7} }}}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad { \dashrightarrow \: { \sf{ y = \dfrac{18 - 9x}{7} }}}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of y = 18 – 9x/7 .

A helicopter starting on the ground is rising directly
into the air at a rate of 25 ft/sec. You are running on the
ground starting directly under the helicopter at a rate of 10
ft/sec. What is the rate at which the distance between you and the helicopter is changing when the helicopter has risen to a height of 60 ft in the air, assuming that, initially, it was 30 ft above you?
I want to understand how any why this is solved. So images/diagrams, detailed step by step breakdowns solutions are VERY much appreciated. Thanks!

Answers

Answer:

Oook, quick setup: pick a cartesian plane, be [tex](0;y(t))[/tex]the position of the helicopter as time passes, and [tex](x(t);0)[/tex] your position as you start running. In my horrible sketch, the green line is the distance when you start running, the red line is the distance you need,  in general what you want is to move one end of the segment up, the other right, and stretch it.

That distance is easily found with the formula for the distance between two points in the plane, or [tex]d=\sqrt{(\Delta x)^2+(\Delta y)^2}= \sqrt{x^2(t)+y^2(t)}[/tex] (playing a bit with the squares). At this point we need to write down expressions for both [tex]x(t), y(t)[/tex] and find at what value of t we need to evaluate our distance.

For the sake of semplicity, let's start measuring times the moment you start running. Since speed is constant, both expressions will be of the form [tex]s=vt+s_0[/tex]

The equation for the runner becomes simply [tex]x(t)=10t[/tex], since you haven't moved until the heli is high enough.

The equation of the helicopter is [tex]y=25t+30[/tex] since the heli is 30ft above ground when you start running.

Finally, we need to know how many seconds have passed when the heli is at 60 ft above ground. that happens when [tex]60=25t+30 \rightarrow t=\frac{30}{25} = 1.20s[/tex]. in this time, you are at  [tex]x(1.2)=10(1.2)=12ft[/tex] from the origin.

Plugging it in the distance formula you get: [tex]\sqrt{12^2+60^2}= \sqrt{144+3600}=4\sqrt {234}\approx 61.2ft[/tex]
