The simplified expression for the total cost is 124000 - 650n and the cost if 65 workers choose desktop computers is 81750

<h3>Write and simplify an expression for the cost of all the computers </h3>

The given parameters are:

Number of workers = 80

Cost of desktop = $900

Cost of laptop = $1550

If n workers choose desktop computers, then 80 - n workers choose laptop computers

So, the expression for the cost of all the computers is

Total cost = 900n + 1550 * (80 - n)

Expand

Total cost = 900n + 124000 - 1550n

Evaluate the like terms

Total cost = 124000 - 650n

Hence, the simplified expression for the total cost is 124000 - 650n

<h3>Find the cost if 65 workers choose desktop computers.</h3>

This means that n = 65.

So, we have:

Total cost = 124000 - 650* 65

Evaluate

Total cost = 81750

Hence, the cost if 65 workers choose desktop computers is 81750

Answer:

  1.67 m, 8.33 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of lengths is 1 : 5, then the ratio of the shortest length to the total is ...

  1 : (1+5) = 1 : 6

The shortest length is (10 m)×(1/6) = 1.67 m. The longer length is 10 -1.67 = 8.33 m.

The lengths of the pieces are 8.33 m and 1.67 m.

The terminal velocity of a person falling through air is about 100Km/hr. The acceleration due to gravity is 10ms−2. Use this inf
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The question here is how long does it take for a falling person to reach the 90% of this terminal velocity. The computation is:

The terminal velocity vt fulfills v'=0. Therefore vt=g/c, and so c=g/vt = 10/(100*1000/3600) = 36,000/100,000... /s. Incorporating the differential equation shows that the time needed to reach velocity v is 

t= ln [g / (g-c*v)] / c. 

With v=.9 vt =.9 g/c,

t = ln [10] /c = 6.4 sec.
