A population of 1,750 cheetahs decreases by 11% per year. How many cheetahs will there be in the population after 10 years?

2 answers:

7 0

First, write an equation.

1750 = number of cheetahs
.89 = Rate (1-.11)
x = Number of years

1750(.89)^x

1750(.89)^10 = 545.68 (you cant have half a cheetah) so around 546

It would be a population of 546 cheetahs

A ball of radius 15 has a round hole of radius 5 drilled through its center. Find the volume of the resulting solid. Hint: The u

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The volume of the ball with the drilled hole is:

$\displaystyle\frac{8000\pi\sqrt{2}}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached a sketch of the region that is revolved about the y-axis to produce the upper half of the ball. Notice the function y is the equation of a circle centered at the origin with radius 15:

$x^2+y^2=15^2\to y=\sqrt{225-x^2}$

Then we set the integral for the volume by using shell method:

$\displaystyle\int_5^{15}2\pi x\sqrt{225-x^2}dx$

That can be solved by substitution:

$u=225-x^2\to du=-2xdx$

The limits of integration also change:

For x=5: $u=225-5^2=200$

For x=15: $u=225-15^2=0$

So the integral becomes:

$\displaystyle -\int_{200}^{0}\pi \sqrt{u}du$

If we flip the limits we also get rid of the minus in front, and writing the root as an exponent we get:

$\displaystyle \int_{0}^{200}\pi u^{1/2}du$

Then applying the basic rule we get:

$\displaystyle\frac{2\pi}{3}u^{3/2}\Bigg|_0^{200}=\frac{2\pi(200\sqrt{200})}{3}=\frac{400\pi(10)\sqrt{2}}{3}=\frac{4000\pi\sqrt{2}}{3}$

Since that is just half of the solid, we multiply by 2 to get the complete volume:

$\displaystyle\frac{2\cdot4000\pi\sqrt{2}}{3}$

$=\displaystyle\frac{8000\pi\sqrt{2}}{3}$

Matt Bonner has 8 dimes, 9 pennies, and 4 quarters in his pocket. If each coin is equally likely to be pulled out of his pocket

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

B. 0.602%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is essentially (# times specific event will occur) / (# times general event will occur). Here, we have a few specific events: draw a quarter, draw a second quarter, draw a penny, and draw another penny. The general event will just be the number of coins there are to choose from.

The probability that the first draw is a quarter will be 4 / (4 + 8 + 9) = 4/21.

Since we've drawn one now, there's only 21 - 1 = 20 total coins left. The probability of drawing a second quarter is: (4 - 1) / (21 - 1) = 3/20.

The probability of drawing a penny is: 9 / (20 - 1) = 9/19.

The probability of drawing a second penny is: (9 - 1) / (19 - 1) = 8/18.

Multiply these four probabilities together:

(4/21) * (3/20) * (9/19) * (8/18) = 864 / 143640 ≈ 0.602%

The answer is B.

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Smoking damages your entire cardiovascular system. Speaking of this Nicotine causes blood vessels to tighten, which restricts the flow of blood. Over time, the ongoing narrowing, along with damage to the blood vessels, can cause *peripheral artery disease*. Smoking also raises blood pressure, weakens blood vessel walls, and increases blood clots.

* Peripheral artery disease is a common circulatory problem in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to your limbs

Hope this helps :) Brainliest would be appreciated XD
