Sarah is carrying out a series of experiments which involve using increasing amounts of a chemical. In the first experiment she uses 6g of the chemical and in the second experiment she uses 7.8 g of the chemical
(i)Given that the amounts of the chemical used form an arithmetic progression find the total amount of chemical used in the first 30 experiments
(ii)Instead it is given that the amounts of the chemical used for a geometric progression. Sarah has a total of 1800 g of the chemical available. Show that the greatest number of experiments possible satisfies the inequality: [tex] 1.3^N \leq 91[/tex] and use logarithms to calculate the value of N.
Answer:
(a)963 grams
(b)N=17
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
In the first experiment, Sarah uses 6g of the chemical
In the second experiment, Sarah uses 7.8g of the chemical
If this forms an arithmetic progression:
First term, a =6g
Common difference. d= 7.8 -6 =1.8 g
Therefore:
Total Amount of chemical used in the first 30 experiments
[tex]S_n=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d] \\S_{30}=\dfrac{30}{2}[2*6+(30-1)1.8] \\=15[12+29*1.8]\\=15[12+52.2]\\=15*64.2\\=963$ grams[/tex]
Sarah uses 963 grams in the first 30 experiments.
(b) If the increase is geometric
First Term, a=6g
Common ratio, r =7.8/6 =1.3
Sarah has a total of 1800 g
Therefore:
Sum of a geometric sequence
[tex]S_n=\dfrac{a(r^N-1)}{r-1} \\1800=\dfrac{6(1.3^N-1)}{1.3-1} \\1800=\dfrac{6(1.3^N-1)}{0.3}\\$Cross multiply\\1800*0.3=6(1.3^N-1)\\6(1.3^N-1)=540\\1.3^N-1=540\div 6\\1.3^N-1=90\\1.3^N=90+1\\1.3^N=91[/tex]
Therefore, the greatest possible number of experiments satisfies the inequality
[tex] 1.3^N \leq 91[/tex]
Next, we solve for N
Changing [tex] 1.3^N \leq 91[/tex] to logarithm form, we obtain:
[tex] N \leq log_{1.3}91\\N \leq \dfrac{log 91}{log 1.3}\\ N \leq 17.19[/tex]
Therefore, the number of possible experiments, N=17

Vicente has a prism- like water tank whose base area is 1.2 square meters. He bought 6 goldfish at the store and the store owner told him to make sure their density in the tank isn’t more than 4 fish per cubic meter. What is the lowest possible height so the fish aren’t too crowded
Answer: 1.25 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of base = 1.2 m²
Number of gold fish = 6
Density of the tank should be = 4 fish/m³
Height of the tank= ?
4 fish = 1 m³
6 fish = 6/4 = 1.5 m³
Volume required for 6 fish is 1.5 m³
V = area of base x height (h)
1.5 = 1.2 x h
h = 1.25 m
Hence, height of the tank is equal to 1.25 m.

Assume that is takes an average of 3 man-hours to stack 1 ton of a particular item. In order to stack 36 tons in 6 hours, the number of people required is _____
Answer:
18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
3 men = 1 ton in 1 hour
6 men = 2 ton in 1 hour
9 men = 3 tons in 1 hour
with this you find a pattern
3 men = 2 tons in 2 hours
3 men = 3 tons in 3 hours
3 men = 6 tons in 6 hours
6 men = 12 tons in 6 hours
9 men = 18 tons in 6 hours
12 men = 24 tons in 6 hours
15 men = 30 tons in 6 hours
18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours
(This is how i worked it out)
Answer:
18 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Method A:
3 man-hours to stack 1 ton
36 tons is 36 times 1 ton, so it takes 36 times as long to stack.
36 * 3 man-hours to stack 36 * 1 ton, or
108 man-hours to stack 36 tons
To do the job in 6 hours instead of 108, you need to do 108/6 = 18 times as much work per hour, so you need 18 times as many people.
18 * 1 person = 18 people
Answer: 18 people
Method B:
1 person works 3 hours and stacks 1 ton. That same person works another 3 hours and stacks another ton. In a total of 6 hours, 1 person stacked 2 tons. Since you need 36 tons stacked in the same 6 hours, and 36 = 18 * 2, you need 18 times the number of people, so you need 18 people.
∠MNQ and ∠PNR are vertical angles. What is the value of x?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x such that ∠MNQ and ∠PNR are vertical angles is 40
How to determine the value of x?The given parameters are:
MNQ = 3x - 6
PNR = 114
Vertical angles are equal.
So, we have:
3x - 6 = 114
Add 6 to both sides
3x = 120
Divide both sides by 3
x = 40
Hence, the value of x is 40

Student Friendly Bank pays a simple interest rate of 2.5% per year. Neighborhood Bank pays a compound interest rate of 2.1% per year, compounded monthly.
The question is incomplete:
Student Friendly Bank pays a simple interest rate of 2.5% per year. Neighborhood Bank pays a compound interest rate of 2.1% per year, compounded monthly.
Which bank will provide the largest balance if you plan to invest $10,000 for 10 years? For 20 years?
Answer:
-The bank that provides the largest balance if you plan to invest $10,000 for 10 years is Student Friendly Bank.
-The bank that provides the largest balance if you plan to invest $10,000 for 20 years is Neighborhood Bank.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to calculate the balance if you invest the money in Student Friendly Bank. To do it, you have to use the simple interest formula to calculate the future value:
FV=PV(1+rt)
FV= future value
PV= present value
r= rate
t=time
-10 years:
FV= 10,000(1+(0.025*10))
FV= 10,000(1+0.25)
FV=10,000(1.25)
FV=12,500
-20 years:
FV= 10,000(1+(0.025*20))
FV= 10,000(1+0.5)
FV=10,000(1.5)
FV=15,000
Second, you have to calculate the balance if you invest the money in Student Neighborhood Bank. To do it, you have to use the compound interest formula to calculate the future value:
FV=PV(1+(r/m))^mt
FV= future value
PV= present value
r= rate
t=time
m=number compounding periods per year
-10 years:
FV=10,000*(1+(0.021/12))^12*10
FV=10,000*(1+0.00175)^120
FV=10,000*(1.00175)^120
FV=12,334.5
-20 years:
FV=10,000*(1+(0.021/12))^12*20
FV=10,000*(1+0.00175)^240
FV=10,000*(1.00175)^240
FV=15,214
According to this, the bank that provides the largest balance if you plan to invest $10,000 for 10 years is Student Friendly Bank because it will provide $12,500 and Neighborhood Bank will provide $12,334.5.
The bank that provides the largest balance if you plan to invest $10,000 for 20 years is Neighborhood Bank because it will provide $15,214 and Student Friendly Bank will provide $15,000.

If A(4 -6) B(3 -2) and C (5 2) are the vertices of a triangle ABC fine the length of the median AD from A to BC. Also verify that area of triangle ABD = Area of triangle ACD
Answer:
a) The median AD from A to BC has a length of 6.
b) Areas of triangles ABD and ACD are the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) A median is a line that begin in a vertix and end at a midpoint of a side opposite to vertix. As first step the location of the point is determined:
[tex]D (x,y) = \left(\frac{x_{B}+x_{C}}{2},\frac{y_{B}+y_{C}}{2} \right)[/tex]
[tex]D(x,y) = \left(\frac{3 + 5}{2},\frac{-2 + 2}{2} \right)[/tex]
[tex]D(x,y) = (4,0)[/tex]
The length of the median AD is calculated by the Pythagorean Theorem:
[tex]AD = \sqrt{(x_{D}-x_{A})^{2}+ (y_{D}-y_{A})^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]AD = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+[0-(-6)]^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]AD = 6[/tex]
The median AD from A to BC has a length of 6.
b) In order to compare both areas, all lengths must be found with the help of Pythagorean Theorem:
[tex]AB = \sqrt{(x_{B}-x_{A})^{2}+ (y_{B}-y_{A})^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{(3-4)^{2}+[-2-(-6)]^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]AB \approx 4.123[/tex]
[tex]AC = \sqrt{(x_{C}-x_{A})^{2}+ (y_{C}-y_{A})^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]AC = \sqrt{(5-4)^{2}+[2-(-6)]^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]AC \approx 4.123[/tex]
[tex]BC = \sqrt{(x_{C}-x_{B})^{2}+ (y_{C}-y_{B})^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]BC = \sqrt{(5-3)^{2}+[2-(-2)]^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]BC \approx 4.472[/tex]
[tex]BD = CD = \frac{1}{2}\cdot BC[/tex] (by the definition of median)
[tex]BD = CD = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (4.472)[/tex]
[tex]BD = CD = 2.236[/tex]
[tex]AD = 6[/tex]
The area of any triangle can be calculated in terms of their side length. Now, equations to determine the areas of triangles ABD and ACD are described below:
[tex]A_{ABD} = \sqrt{s_{ABD}\cdot (s_{ABD}-AB)\cdot (s_{ABD}-BD)\cdot (s_{ABD}-AD)}[/tex], where [tex]s_{ABD} = \frac{AB+BD+AD}{2}[/tex]
[tex]A_{ACD} = \sqrt{s_{ACD}\cdot (s_{ACD}-AC)\cdot (s_{ACD}-CD)\cdot (s_{ACD}-AD)}[/tex], where [tex]s_{ACD} = \frac{AC+CD+AD}{2}[/tex]
Finally,
[tex]s_{ABD} = \frac{4.123+2.236+6}{2}[/tex]
[tex]s_{ABD} = 6.180[/tex]
[tex]A_{ABD} = \sqrt{(6.180)\cdot (6.180-4.123)\cdot (6.180-2.236)\cdot (6.180-6)}[/tex]
[tex]A_{ABD} \approx 3.004[/tex]
[tex]s_{ACD} = \frac{4.123+2.236+6}{2}[/tex]
[tex]s_{ACD} = 6.180[/tex]
[tex]A_{ACD} = \sqrt{(6.180)\cdot (6.180-4.123)\cdot (6.180-2.236)\cdot (6.180-6)}[/tex]
[tex]A_{ACD} \approx 3.004[/tex]
Therefore, areas of triangles ABD and ACD are the same.

A rectangular picture frame has a perimeter of 56 inches. The height of the frame is 16 inches. What is the
width of the frame?
The solution is
+W)=
The width of the frame is
inches.
Answer:
12 inches
Step-by-step explanation
The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of each of the sides. So, it would be Perimeter= width+width+height+height. Let's make x as the width as the variable. We already know the value of the perimeter and the height. We can then substitute these values in the above equation.
So, that would be 56=x + x +16 +16
Then we would solve for x. First combine like terms.
56=2x+32
Then, subtract 32 from each side.
24=2x
Finally, divide by 2 on both sides to get the answer.
x=12

12 inches

y+3=2x+6
y=2x+3
The y-intercept is 3, meaning that the line passes through the point (0,3), and it's slope is 2, so it travels 2 units up and 1 unit over. Thus the correct graph is the top left graph, with the two points (-3,-3) and (0,3).
The graph is considered as the creation of a diagram that depicts a relationship connecting two or more items, and further discussion can be defined as follows:
Given:
[tex]\bold{y+3=2(x+3)}[/tex]
To find:
graph=?
Solution:
[tex]\bold{y+3=2(x+3)}[/tex]

Determine the value of f, rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Answer: 0.39
Step-by-step explanation:
We are required to determine the the value of f, rounded to the nearest hundredth
The value of f, rounded to the nearest hundredth is 0.39
Given function:
[tex]d(v) = \frac{2.15 {v}^{2} }{64.4f} [/tex]
Where,
d = stopping distance in feet
v = initial velocity in miles per hour
f = a constant related to friction
When
v = 40 mph
d = 138 ft
f = ?
[tex]d(v) = \frac{2.15 {v}^{2} }{64.4f} [/tex]
[tex]138= \frac{2.15 {(40)}^{2} }{64.4f} [/tex]
138(64.4f) = 2.15(1600)
