Answer:

it will take about 7.5 hours to increase from 20 to 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

y(t) = a  e^kt

20 = a e^ kt1

2000 = a e^ kt2

divide these equations

2000/20 = a e^ kt2/ a e^ kt1

when dividing the exponents subtract

100 =a/a e^(kt2-kt1)

factor out the k

100 = e ^ k(t2-t1)

take the natural log on each side

ln(100) = ln (e^ k(t2-t1)

ln (100) = k(t2-t1)

divide by k

ln(100)/k = (t2-t1)

we know k=.614

ln(100)/.614 = t2-t1

7.500277 = t2-t1

it will take about 7.5 hours to increase from 20 to 2000

Fill in the blanks on the pattern 98,97,95,92,88 ? ?
Novay_Z [31]
Answers are: 83 and 77

Notice how...
The jump from 98 to 97 is a decrease of 1
The jump from 97 to 95 is a decrease of 2
The jump from 95 to 92 is a decrease of 3
The jump from 92 to 88 is a decrease of 4

The pattern of decreases so far is: 1, 2, 3, 4

So the next decrease is 5
88-5 = 83

And the decrease after that is 6
83-6 = 77

Which statement describes a process to solve b+20 - b=5
IRINA_888 [86]
- b = 5

isolate the b by dividing -1 to both sides

-b(/-1) = 5(/-1)
b = 5/ -1
b = -5

b + 20 
(-5) + 20 = 15

15 is your answer

hope this helps
