Answer:
i)W = 2500 / T
ii) W = 500 Tons
iii) grad W(10°) = - 25î
iv) The formulation is not practical
Step-by-step explanation:
i) Write an equation describing the use of coal
As use of coal is inversely proportional to the average monthly temperature
if W is use of coal in tons/per month then
W(t) = k / T where k is a constant of proportionality and T is the average temperature in degrees. We have to determine k from given conditions
k = ?? we know that when T = 25° W = 100 tons the by subtitution
W = k/T 100 = k /25 k = 2500 Tons*degree
Then final equation is:
W = 2500 / T
ii) Find the amount of coal when T = 5 degrees
W = 2500 / 5
W = 500 Tons
iii)
The inverse proportionality implies that W will decrease as T increase.
The vector gradient of W function is:
grad W = DW(t)/dt î
grad W = - 2500/T² î
Wich agrees with the fact that W is decreasing.
And when T = 100°
grad W(10°) = - 2500/ 100 î ⇒ grad W(10°) = - 25î
iv) When T = 0 The quantity of coal tends to infinite and the previous formulation is not practical
The base is 3+(x), altitude is x so substitute. Now we know the area of a triangle is base X height X 1/2. Substitute again! 1/2 (3+x)(x)=35. Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out the 1/2. Now you have (x)(x+3)=70 and you have to foil out the left side x^2+3x=70. Subtract 70 on both sides x^2+3x-70=0. Find two numbers that multiply to -70 and add to 3. Solve (x+10)(x-7)=0. the x value is 7. since you can't have negative length values. Substitute 7 into 3+x for the base so you know the base is 10 and the height is 7.

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
Four total places someone can come - 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th. Anyone can come 1st - 4 people
Now only the remaining 3 can come second - 3 people
Next, only the remaining 2 people can come third - 2 people
Finally, one person comes last - 1 person
4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
When simplifying you need to be able to divide both the top and bottom number in the fraction by one of their factors. A number will be fully simplified when they become a prime number or have one as the numerator.
