Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 mill

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.

i.e. if V stands for volume of oil, then

$V' =kV\\dv/V= kdt\\ln V = kt+C\\V = Ae^{kt}$

To find A and k

V(0) = A = 3 million

Hence V = $3e^{kt}$

V(6) = 1.5

i.e. $1.5 = 3e^{6k}\\ln 1.5 =ln 3 +6k\\k = -0.11552$

$V(t) = 3e^{-0.11552t}$

a) Using the above value of k , we have

$V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794$ million per year.

Solve the following equation for y.<br>x-5y=-18<br>

olganol [36]

Answer:

y=15x+185

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add -x to both sides.

x−5y+−x=−18+−x

−5y=−x−18

Step 2: Divide both sides by -5.

−5y−5=−x−18−5

y=15x+185

during the 8-month shrimping season in the Gulf mexico, 325 shrimpers caught 4,913,977 pounds of shrimp and sold the shrimp $2 p

Hatshy [7]

STEP 1:
Find the $ total sold. Multiply total pounds by $2 sale price per pound.

=4,913,977 pounds * $2 a pound
=$9,827,954 total sold

STEP 2:
Divide the total sold above by the 325 shrimpers.

=$9,827,954 ÷ 325
=$30,239.858

Rounded to nearest dollar:
Each of the 325 shrimpers will take home $30,240.

Hope this helps! :)

Kyle works at a donut factory, where a 10-oz cup of coffee costs 95¢, a 14-oz cup costs $1.15, and a 20-oz cup costs $1.5

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Kyle filled 4 10-oz cups, 6 14-oz cups, and 4 20-oz cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 10-oz, 14-oz, and 20-oz coffees be represented by the variables <em>a, b</em>, and <em>c</em>, respectively.

Since a total of 14 cups of coffee was served:

$a+b+c=14$

A total of 204 ounces of coffee was served. Therefore:

$10a+14b+20c=204$

A total of $16.70 was collected. Hence:

$0.95a+1.15b+1.5c=16.7$

This yields a triple system of equations. In order to solve a triple system, we should isolate the system to only two variables first.

From the first equation, let's subtract <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> from both sides:

$c=14-a-b$

Substitute this into both the second and third equations:

$10a+14b+20(14-a-b)=204$

And:

$0.95a+1.15b+1.5(14-a-b)=16.7$

In this way, we've successfully created a system of two equations, which can be more easily solved. Distribute:

For the Second Equation:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 10a+14b+280-20a-20b&=204\\ -10a-6b&=-76\\5a+3b&=38\end{aligned}$

And for the Third:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 0.95a+1.15b+21-1.5a-1.5b&=16.7\\ -0.55a-0.35b&=-4.3\end{aligned}$

We can solve this using substitution. From the second equation, isolate <em>a: </em>

<em /> $\displaystyle a=\frac{1}{5}(38-3b)=7.6-0.6b$ <em />

Substitute into the third:

$-0.55(7.6-0.6b)-0.35b=-4.3$

Distribute and simplify:

$-4.18+0.33b-0.35b=-4.3$

Therefore:

$-0.02b=-0.12\Rightarrow b=6$

Using the equation for <em>a: </em>

<em /> $a=7.6-0.6(6)=4$ <em />

<em />

And using the equation for <em>c: </em>

<em /> $c=14-(4)-(6)=14-10=4$ <em />

<em />

Therefore, Kyle filled 4 10-oz cups, 6 14-oz cups, and 4 20-oz cups.
