Answer:

(a) The 5-hour decay factor is 0.5042.

(b) The 1-hour decay factor is 0.8720.

(c) The amount of caffeine in Chase's body 2.39 hours after consuming the drink is 149.112 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of caffeine in Chase's body decreases exponentially.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine is 0.2542.

The 1-hour decay factor is:

$1-hour\ decay\ factor=(0.2542)^{1/10}=0.8720$

(a)

Compute the 5-hour decay factor as follows:

$5-hour\ decay\ factor=(0.8720)^{5}\\=0.504176\\\approx0.5042$

Thus, the 5-hour decay factor is 0.5042.

(b)

The 1-hour decay factor is:

$1-hour\ decay\ factor=(0.2542)^{1/10}=0.8720$

Thus, the 1-hour decay factor is 0.8720.

(c)

The equation to compute the amount of caffeine in Chase's body is:

A = Initial amount × (0.8720)<em>ⁿ</em>

It is provided that initially Chase had 171 mg of caffeine, 1.39 hours after consuming the drink.

Compute the amount of caffeine in Chase's body 2.39 hours after consuming the drink as follows:

$A = Initial\ amount \times (0.8720)^{2.39} \\=[Initial\ amount \times (0.8720)^{1.39}] \times(0.8720)\\=171\times 0.8720\\=149.112$

Thus, the amount of caffeine in Chase's body 2.39 hours after consuming the drink is 149.112 mg.

A machine at a bottling company fills water bottles. the number of bottles filled is proportional to the amount of time the mach

Whitepunk [10]

In the table shown below:

Let N be the number of bottles filled,

Let T be the time in hours.

Given that the number of bottles filled is proportional to the amount of time the machine runs, we have

$\begin{gathered} N\propto T \\ \text{Introducing a proportionality constant, we have } \\ N\text{ = kT} \\ \Rightarrow k\text{ = }\frac{N}{T} \\ \end{gathered}$

Let's evaluate the value of k for each day.

Thus, on monday,

$\begin{gathered} N\text{ = 9900} \\ T\text{ = 5.5} \\ \text{thus,} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{9900}{5.5} \\ \Rightarrow k\text{ = 1800} \end{gathered}$

Tuesday:

$\begin{gathered} N\text{ = }11160 \\ T\text{ = }6.2 \\ \text{thus,} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{11160}{6.2} \\ \Rightarrow k\text{ = 1800} \end{gathered}$

Wednesday:

$\begin{gathered} N\text{ = }12330 \\ T\text{ = }6.25 \\ \text{thus,} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{12330}{6.25} \\ \Rightarrow k\text{ = 1972.8} \end{gathered}$

Thursday:

$\begin{gathered} N\text{ = }10440 \\ T\text{ = }5.80 \\ \text{thus,} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{10440}{5.8} \\ \Rightarrow k=1800 \end{gathered}$

It is observed that all exept wednesday have the same value of k.

Thus, the amount of time required for the number of bottles filled on wednesday is evaluated as

$\begin{gathered} N\text{ = }12330 \\ k\text{ = 1800} \\ T\text{ = ?} \\ \text{but} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{N}{T} \\ 1800\text{ = }\frac{12330}{T} \\ \Rightarrow T\text{ = }\frac{\text{12330}}{1800} \\ T\text{ = 6.85} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the incorrect day is Wednesday. The amount of time for that many bottles should be 6.85 hours.

Use the Chain Rule (Calculus 2)

atroni [7]

1. By the chain rule,

$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x}\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}$

I'm going to switch up the notation to save space, so for example, $z_x$ is shorthand for $\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}$ .

$z_t=z_xx_t+z_yy_t$

We have

$x=e^{-t}\implies x_t=-e^{-t}$

$y=e^t\implies y_t=e^t$

$z=\tan(xy)\implies\begin{cases}z_x=y\sec^2(xy)=e^t\sec^2(1)\\z_y=x\sec^2(xy)=e^{-t}\sec^2(1)\end{cases}$

$\implies z_t=e^t\sec^2(1)(-e^{-t})+e^{-t}\sec^2(1)e^t=0$

Similarly,

$w_t=w_xx_t+w_yy_t+w_zz_t$

where

$x=\cosh^2t\implies x_t=2\cosh t\sinh t$

$y=\sinh^2t\implies y_t=2\cosh t\sinh t$

$z=t\implies z_t=1$

To capture all the partial derivatives of $w$ , compute its gradient:

$\nabla w=\langle w_x,w_y,w_z\rangle=\dfrac{\langle1,-1,1\rangle}{\sqrt{1-(x-y+z)^2}}}=\dfrac{\langle1,-1,1\rangle}{\sqrt{-2t-t^2}}$

$\implies w_t=\dfrac1{\sqrt{-2t-t^2}}$

2. The problem is asking for $\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}$ and $\frac{\partial z}{\partial y}$ . But $z$ is already a function of $x,y$ , so the chain rule isn't needed here. I suspect it's supposed to say "find $\frac{\partial z}{\partial s}$ and $\frac{\partial z}{\partial t}$ " instead.

If that's the case, then

$z_s=z_xx_s+z_yy_s$

$z_t=z_xx_t+z_yy_t$

as the hint suggests. We have

$z=\sin x\cos y\implies\begin{cases}z_x=\cos x\cos y=\cos(s+t)\cos(s^2t)\\z_y=-\sin x\sin y=-\sin(s+t)\sin(s^2t)\end{cases}$

$x=s+t\implies x_s=x_t=1$

$y=s^2t\implies\begin{cases}y_s=2st\\y_t=s^2\end{cases}$

Putting everything together, we get

$z_s=\cos(s+t)\cos(s^2t)-2st\sin(s+t)\sin(s^2t)$

$z_t=\cos(s+t)\cos(s^2t)-s^2\sin(s+t)\sin(s^2t)$

A distance AB is observed repeatedly using the same equipment and procedures, and the results, in meters, are listed below: 67.4

skad [1K]

Answer:

a) $\bar X =\frac{67.401+67.400+67.402+67.396+67.406+67.401+67.396+67.401+67.405+67.404}{10}=67.401$

b) The sample deviation is calculated from the following formula:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And for this case after replace the values and with the sample mean already calculated we got:

$s=0.0036$

If we assume that the data represent a population then the standard deviation would be given by:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n}}$

And then the deviation would be:

$\sigma =0.00319$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following dataset:

67.401, 67.400, 67.402, 67.396, 67.406, 67.401, 67.396, 67.401, 67.405, and 67.404

Part a: Determine the most probable value.

For this case the most probably value would be the sample mean given by this formula:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And if we replace we got:

$\bar X =\frac{67.401+67.400+67.402+67.396+67.406+67.401+67.396+67.401+67.405+67.404}{10}=67.401$

Part b: Determine the standard deviation

The sample deviation is calculated from the following formula:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And for this case after replace the values and with the sample mean already calculated we got:

$s=0.0036$

If we assume that the data represent a population then the standard deviation would be given by:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n}}$

And then the deviation would be:

$\sigma =0.00319$
