Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were used as propellants in spray cans until their buildup in the atmosphere started destroying the ozone, which protects us from ultraviolet rays. Since the 1987 Montreal Protocol (an agreement to curb CFCs), the CFCs in the atmosphere above the US have been reduced from a high of 1915 parts per trillion (ppt) in 2000 to 1640 ppt in 2014.23 The reduction has been approximately linear. Let C(t) be the concentration of CFCs in ppt in year t.
(a) Find C(2000) and C(2014).
(b) Estimate C′(2000) and C′(2014).
(c) Assuming C(t) is linear, find a formula for C(t).
(d) When is C(t) expected to reach 1500 ppt, the level before CFCs were introduced?
(e) If you were told that in the future, C(t) would not be exactly linear, and that C″(t) > 0, would your answer to part (d) be too early or too late?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) C(2000)=1915

C(2014)=1915

b) [tex]C'(2000)=-\frac{275}{14}[/tex]

[tex]C'(2014)=-\frac{275}{14}[/tex]

c) [tex]C(t)=-\frac{275}{14}t+\frac{288405}{7}[/tex]

d) t=2021

e) too early

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Since C(t) is the concentration of CFCs in ppt in year t, all we need to do to solve this part is determine what the concentration of CFCs is in years 2000 and 2014. Luckily for us, the problem already gives us those values, so:

C(2000)=1915    concentration in year 2000

C(2014)=1915      concentration in year 2014

b)

By definition, the derivative of a function at a given point is interpreted as the slope of the tangent line to the point of interest, so in order to find this answer, we need to find the slope of the line. Since the problem specifies that the behavior is linear, this means that the slope will always be the same no matter the year, so we get:

[tex]m=C'(t)=\frac{C'(t_{2})-C'(t_{1})}{t_2-t_1}[/tex]

so:

[tex]C'(t)=\frac{1640-1915}{2014-2000}=-\frac{275}{14}\approx -19.64[/tex]

therefore:

[tex]C'(2000)=-\frac{275}{14}[/tex]

[tex]C'(2014)=-\frac{275}{14}[/tex]

c)

Since the behavior is linear, we can calculate it with the point-slope form of the line which is:

[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})[/tex]

in this case:

[tex]C(t)-C(t_1)=C'(t)(t-t_{1})[/tex]

so we get:

[tex]C(t)-1915=-\frac{275}{14}(t-2000)[/tex]

and we can now solve for C(t) so we get:

[tex]C(t)=-\frac{275}{14}t+\frac{275000}{t}+1915[/tex]

for a final answer of:

[tex]C(t)=-\frac{275}{14}t+\frac{288405}{7}[/tex]

d)

So next we solve the equation for C(t)=1500 so we get:

[tex]1500=-\frac{275}{14}t+\frac{288405}{7}[/tex]

[tex]1500-\frac{288405}{7}=-\frac{275}{14}t[/tex]

[tex]-\frac{277905}{7}=-\frac{275}{14}t[/tex]

[tex]t=2021 \frac{7}{55}[/tex]

so we will reach that concentration level at the year 2021 approximately.

e)

Since the second derivative of the concentration function is greater than zero, this means that the original function might be a function in the form: .

This means that the decrease of the concentration levels is slower than that of a linear equation. So the projected date will be too early than the real date.

There are 40 players on Bill's football team, 2/5 of the players walk to practice and 1/4 of the players ride with their parents. The remaining players ride the bus. How many students ride the bus?

Answers

Answer:

22 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 40 players on the football team. 2/5 walk, 1/4 ride with their parents, and the rest ride the bus. To solve, I'm going to be using fractions to find out how many students ride the bus.

1/4 of 40 or 40/4 is equal to 10.

So we know 10 players ride with their parents.

2/5 of 40 or 40/5 is equal to 8.

Cool, 8 students walk to practice.

Now the rest ride the bus. Let's use addition to find the total amount of players that dont use the bus and subtract it from the total amount of players.

10+8=18

40-18=22.

22 students/players ride the bus to football practice.

Answer:

comparing rates.. use the formula  d = r * t    where d= distance , r = rate or speed  and t = time  ofc.  :)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the distance  and the time but not the rate.. find that  r ....

d/t = r    4/30 = r    = 0.13333333333  this is in Km per minute,   b/c the 4 is Km and the 30  is in minutes.  Units are not to important other than keeping track of what they are.  

Now we can answer the question  can Marlene run 6 Km in 45 mins. b/c we know her rate , or speed,   so at her rate of 0.133333333  Km/min  and using that d = r * t formula  what is her distance in 45 minutes..  so  multiply 45 * 0.133333= 6     so she runs exactly 6 Km in 45 minutes.. so the math answer is yes

Answer:

The correct option is  b

2

The correct option is  h

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n  = 15

   The difference in population proportion is [tex]d = 6[/tex]

Generally the sample mean of the input temperature is  

     [tex]\= x_1  =  \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_1  =  \frac{57.6 + 68.9 + \cdots +60.4  }{15}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_1  = 62.57 [/tex]

Generally the sample mean of the output temperature is  

     [tex]\= x_2  =  \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_2  =  \frac{65.1 + 74.4 + \cdots +67.3 }{15}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_2 = 55.97 [/tex]

Generally the difference of the sample mean of the input temperature and that of the output temperature is  

     [tex]\= d  =  \= x_1  - \= x_2[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= d  =  62.57 -55.97[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= d  =  6.6[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]s_d  =  \sqrt{\frac{\sum(d_1 - \= d )^2}{n} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]s_d  =  \sqrt{\frac{([57.6- 65.1]- 6.6)^2+ ([68.9 - 74.4]- 6.6)^2 + \cdots +  ([60.4 -  67.3]- 6.6)^2 }{15} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]s_d  = 1.732 [/tex

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

     [tex]t  =  \frac{ d - \= d  }{ \frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]t  =  \frac{ 6-6.6  }{ \frac{1.732}{\sqrt{15} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]t  =  1.3417[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

    [tex]df =  n -  1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =  15 -  1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =  14[/tex]

Generally the probability of t obtained from the t - distribution table at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df =  14[/tex] is  

      [tex]P(t >1.3417 )  =  0.10052569[/tex]

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p-value  =  2 *  P(t >  1.3417)[/tex]

=>    [tex]p-value  =  2 *   0.10052569[/tex]

=>   [tex]p-value  =  0.201 [/tex]

From the values obtained we see that [tex]p-value  >  \alpha[/tex] hence

Dylan $10.5 per hour

no its not proportional because half of 50 is 25 so therefore 42 would not be prportional to 25

Answers

Answer:

yes, she will still have 1/8 of a cup left

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to convert all the fractions to have the same denominator.

to do that you need improper fractions

3  1/2= 7/2

1  5/8= 13/8

1  3/4= 7/4

with this information, you need to find a common number between 2, 8, and 4. the largest number that they all fit into is 8.

so 7/2 becomes 28/8

13/8 stays the same

and 7/4 becomes 14/8

add 13/8 and 14/8 and subtract from 28/8

you get 1/8, which means you have enough flower for both recipes!
