The number of rows in the arena is 26

<h3>How to determine the number of rows?</h3>

The hockey arena illustrates an arithmetic sequence, and it has the following parameters:

  • First term, a = 220
  • Sum of terms, Sn = 10920
  • Common difference, d = 16

The number of rows (i.e. the number of terms) is calculated using:

S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a + (n -1) * d)

So,we have:

10920 = \frac{n}{2}(2 * 220 + (n -1) * 16)

Evaluate the terms and factors

21840 = n(440 + 16n -16)

Evaluate the like terms

21840 = n(424+ 16n)

Expand

21840 = 424n + 16n^2

Rewrite as:

16n^2 + 424n - 21840 = 0

Using a graphical tool, we have:

n = 26

Hence, the number of rows in the arena is 26

If a tank holds 5000 gallons of water, which drains from the bottom of the tank in 40 minutes, then Torricelli's Law gives the v
pochemuha

Answer:

V'(t) = -250(1 - \frac{1}{40}t)

If we know the time, we can plug in the value for "t" in the above derivative and find how much water drained for the given point of t.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

V = 5000(1 - \frac{1}{40}t )^2  , where 0≤t≤40.

Here we have to find the derivative with respect to "t"

We have to use the chain rule to find the derivative.

V'(t) = 2(5000)(1 - \frac{1}{40} t)d/dt (1 - \frac{1}{40}t )

V'(t) = 2(5000)(1 - \frac{1}{40} t)(-\frac{1}{40} )

When we simplify the above, we get

V'(t) = -250(1 - \frac{1}{40}t)

If we know the time, we can plug in the value for "t" and find how much water drained for the given point of t.

Answer:

slope = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 6) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{6-0}{4+8} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}
