Using the given information, length of QR = 16.6 cm

The area of the trapezium is 304.5 cm²

<h3>Calculating area of a trapezium</h3>

From the question we are to calculate the length of QR and the area of trapezium PQRS

In the given diagram,

Let the midpoint of PS be T

Then, we can write that

|OP|² = |OT|² + |PT|² (<em>Pythagorean theorem</em>)

|OP| = radius = 13 cm

|PT| = 1/2 × PS = 1/2 × 24 cm = 12 cm

∴ 13² = |OT|² + 12²

169 = |OT|² + 144

|OT|² = 169 -144

|OT|² = 25

|OT| = √25

|OT| = 5 cm

Also, let the midpoint of QR be U

Then, we can write that

|OQ|² = |OU|² + |QU|² (<em>Pythagorean theorem</em>)

|OQ| = radius = 13 cm

From the given information,

The distance of QR from O is twice the distance of PS from O

∴ |OU| = 2 × |OT|= 2 × 5 cm = 10cm

Thus,

13² = ||² + 12²

169 = 10² + |QU|²

|QU|² = 169 -100

|QU|² = 69

|QU| = √69

|QU| = 8.3 cm

Now,

Length of QR = 2 × |QU| = 2 × 8.3 cm

Length of QR = 16.6 cm

Area of the trapezium = 1/2(|QR| + |PS|) × |TU|

Area of the trapezium = 1/2(16.6 + 24) × 15

NOTE: |TU| = |OT| + |OU|

Area of the trapezium = 1/2(40.6) × 15

Area of the trapezium = 20.3 × 15

Area of the trapezium = 304.5 cm²

Hence, the area of the trapezium is 304.5 cm²

In 1859, 24 rabbits were released into the wild in Australia, where they had no natural predators. Their population grew exponen

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a) P' = P

$P(t) = 24e^{0.693t}$ where t is step of 6 months

b) 7.7 years

c)1064.67 rabbits/year

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation describing the population growth is

$\frac{dP}{dt} = P$

Where t is the range of 6 months, or half of a year.

P(t) would have the form of

$P(t) = P_0e^{kt}$

where $P_0 = 24$ is the initial population

After 6 month (t = 1), the population is doubled to 48

$P(1) = 24e^k = 48$

$e^k = 2$

$k = ln(2) = 0.693$

Therefore $P(t) = 24e^{0.693t}$

where t is step of 6 months

b. We can solve for t to get how long it takes to get to a population of 1,000,000:

$24e^{0.693t} = 1000000$

$e^{0.693t} = 1000000 / 24 = 41667$

$0.693t = ln(41667) = 10.64$

$t = 10.64 / 0.693 = 15.35$

So it would take 15.35 * 0.5 = 7.7 years to reach 1000000

c. $P' = P_0ke^{kt}$

We need to resolve for k if t is in the range of 1 year. In half of a year (t = 0.5), the population is 48

$24e^{0.5k) = 48$

$0.5k = ln2 = 0.693$

$k = 1.386$

Therefore, $P' = 1.386*24e^{1.386t}$

At the mid of the 3rd year, where t = 2.5, we can calculate P'

$P' = 1.386*24e^{1.386*2.5} = 1064.67$ rabbits/year

alexi’s restaurant bill is $58, and he wants to leave a 20 percent tip. which expression represents the total amount that alexi

Alexeev081 [22]

He is leaving 20% tip of the bill of $58

20% extra

So total amount = 100% + 20% = 120%

120% of 58

(120/100) * 58

1.2 * 58

= 69.6

So total amount Alexi needs to pay = $69.60
