At 7:00 A.M., Alicia pours a cup of tea whose temperature is 200°F. The tea starts to cool to room temperature (72°F). At 7:02 A

.M. the temperature of the tea is 197°F. At 7:15 A.M. the temperature of the tea is 180°F. Alicia will drink the tea when its temperature is 172°F.
Part A

Which of the following shows an exponential cooling equation that models the temperature of the tea?

A. y = 72(0.989)x + 128

B. y = 128(0.989)x + 72

C. y = 200(0.989)x + 72

D. y = 128(0.989)x + 200

Part B

Answer:

Part A

The most correct option is;

b. y = 128(0.989)x + 72

Part B

Ella can drink the tea after 7:22

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the temperature variation with time given in an exponential equation as follows;

Let the temperature at time x (in minutes) = y

Therefore, y = a × mˣ + b

Where:

b = Shift of the curve or the limit value of the decreasing exponential function as x → ∞

When y = 200, x = 0

Therefore. 200 = a × m⁰ + c = a + c

We note that c is the shift of the graph, the value upon which temperature increases = final temperature = 72°F

Hence a = 200 - 72 = 128°F

When y = 197, x = 2 minutes

Therefore, 197 = 128·m² + 72 =

m² = (197 - 72)/128 = 125/128

m = √(125/128) = 0.98821

Hence the exponential equation of cooling is presented in the following equation;

y = 128 × (0.98821)ˣ + 72

Therefore, the most correct option is b. y = 128(0.989)x + 72

Part B

When the temperature is 172°F we have;

172 = 128 × (0.989)ˣ + 72

∴ (0.989)ˣ = (172 - 72)/128 = 100/128 = 25/32

log(0.989)ˣ = log(25/32)

x·log(0.989) = log(25/32)

x = log(25/32)/log(0.989) = 22.32 minutes

Hence Ella can drink the tea after 7:22.

Pls help!!! if f(x) = 3x-2 and g(x) = 6-4x, fibd f(x) + g(x)
sp2606 [1]
So first off the equation we are solving is f(x) + g(x). So i want to plug in those equations first off. The new equation I get should be 3x-2 + 6 -4x. I then simplify this to -x+4 or 4-x.

Which of these relations on{0,1,2,3}are partial orderings? Determine the properties of a partial ordering that the others lack.
omeli [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

A = {0,1,2,3}

a): R = {(0,0),(2,2),(3,3)}

R is antisymmetric, because if the (a,b)∈R, than a=b.

R is not reflexive, because (1,1) ∉ R while 1 ∈ A.

R is transitive, because if the (a,b)∈R and (b, c) ∈ R, than a=b=c and (a,c)=(a,a)∈R.

R is not portable ordering because R is not reflexive.

b): R = {(0,0),(1,1),(2,0),(2,2),(2,3),(3,3)}

R is antisymmetric, because if the (a,b)∈R and if the (b, a) ∈ R, than a=b (since (2,0) ∈ R and (0,2) ∉ R; and (2,3) ∈ R and (3,2) ∉ R )

R is reflexive, because (a,a) ∈ R of every element a ∈ A.

R is transitive , because if the (a,b)∈R and if the ( b , c )∈R . then a = b or b = c ( since there are only two element not of the form ( a , a ) and that pair does not satisfy ( a,b ) ∈ R and ( b , a ) ∈ R ), which implies ( a , c ) = ( b , c ) ∈ R or ( a , c ) = ( a , b ) ∈ R.

R is a partial ordering, because R is reflexive, antisymmetric and transitive.

c): R =  {(0,0),(1,1),(1,2),(2,2),(3,1),(3,3)}

R is reflexive, because (a,a)∈R of every element a ∈ A.

R is antisymmetric, because if the ( a , b )∈R and if the ( b , a )∈R . then a = b ( since ( 1 , 2 )∈R and ( 2 , 1 ) ∉ R; ( 3 , 1 ) ∈ R and ( 1 , 3 ) ∉ R ).  

R is not transitive , because ( 3 , 1 ) ∈ R and ( 1 , 2 )∈R, while ( 3 , 2 ) ∈ R.

R is not a partial ordering. because R is not transitive .

d): R =  {(0,0),(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(2,0),(2,2),(2,3), (3,0),(3,3)}

R is the reflexive, because ( a , a )∈R of every elements∈A.

R is the antisymmetric, because if the ( a , b )∈R and if the ( b , a )∈R, then a = b ( since ( 1 . 2 )∈R and ( 2 . 1 )∉R; similarly, all other elements not of the form (a,a) ).

R is not transitive, because ( 1 , 2 )∈R and ( 2 , 0 )∈R, while ( 1 . 0 )∉R.

R is not a partial ordering, because R is not transitive,

e):  R = { ( 0 , 0 ) , ( 0, 1 ) , ( 0 , 2 ) , ( 0 , 3 ) , ( 1 , 0 ) , ( 1 , 1 ) , ( 1 , 2 ) , ( 1 , 3 ) , ( 2 , 0 ) , ( 2 , 2 ) , ( 3 , 3 ) }

R is the reflexive , because ( a , a )∈R of every element a∈A .

R is not antisymmetric, because ( 1 , 0 )∈R and ( 0 , 1 )∈R while 0 is not equal to 1.

R is not transitive, because ( 2 , 0 )∈Rand ( 0 , 3 )∈R, while ( 2 , 3 )∉R .

R is not a partial ordering, because R is not the antisymmetric and not the transitive.

How can you use the DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY solve the equation: 3(x-4) = 24 ? *
guapka [62]

By using the Distributive Property, you would multiply 3 into the parenthesis (3 · x and 3 · -4)

3(x - 4) = 24

3x - 12 = 24

Then, you would solve like any normal one-step equation.

3x - 12 = 24

     +12   +12

__________

3x      36

__  =  __

3        3

x = 12, which is your final solution.

If you need any further explanations, please ask me :)
