Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
= x - 5 ( x ≥ 3 )
(
)² = ( x - 5 )²
x - 3 = x² - 10x + 25
x² - 11x + 28 = 0
(x - 4)(x - 7) = 0
= 7
= 4
Check the answer:
1). x = 7
= 7 - 2
√4 = 2
2 = 2
2). x = 4
= 4 - 5
1 = - 1 (False statement) ⇒ x = 4 is an extraneous solution.
I believe that through deductive reasoning angle O is 64 degrees. The reason is it's bigger than angle R so that rules out 32 and 16 degrees, but it's not obtuse, so that rules out 128 degrees, thereby leaving you with 64. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
D = L/k
Step-by-step explanation:
Since A represents the amount of litter present in grams per square meter as a function of time in years, the net rate of litter present is
dA/dt = in flow - out flow
Since litter falls at a constant rate of L grams per square meter per year, in flow = L
Since litter decays at a constant proportional rate of k per year, the total amount of litter decay per square meter per year is A × k = Ak = out flow
So,
dA/dt = in flow - out flow
dA/dt = L - Ak
Separating the variables, we have
dA/(L - Ak) = dt
Integrating, we have
∫-kdA/-k(L - Ak) = ∫dt
1/k∫-kdA/(L - Ak) = ∫dt
1/k㏑(L - Ak) = t + C
㏑(L - Ak) = kt + kC
㏑(L - Ak) = kt + C' (C' = kC)
taking exponents of both sides, we have

When t = 0, A(0) = 0 (since the forest floor is initially clear)


So, D = R - A =

when t = 0(at initial time), the initial value of D =

The value for the missing term is -175.
