Answer:

The pressure is $20\ psi$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form $y*x=k$ or $y=k/x$

In this problem we have

$V*P=k$

where

V is the volume of a gas at a constant temperature

P is the pressure

we have

For $V=100\ in^{3}$ , $P=25\ psi$

step 1

Find the value of k

substitute the values of V and P

$100*25=k$

$k=2,500$

The equation is equal to $V*P=2,500$

step 2

Find the pressure when the volume is 125 cubic inches

For $V=125\ in^{3}$

substitute in the equation and solve for P

$125*P=2,500$

$P=2,500/125=20\ psi$

Does each equation represent exponential decay or exponential growth?

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

1. $H = 5.9(0.82)^{t}$ . Exponential decay function.

2. $y = 0.8(3.6)^{t}$ . Exponential growth function.

3. $f(t) = 0.72(15)^{t}$ . Exponential growth function.

4. $A = \frac{4}{9} (8)^{t}$ . Exponential growth function.

5. $A = (\frac{4}{3})^{t}$ . Exponential growth function.

6. $H = \frac{7}{2} (\frac{5}{6} )^{t}$ . Exponential decay function.

7. g(x) = 0.3(x). Not an exponential function.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $H = 5.9(0.82)^{t}$ . This is an exponential decay function.

As the value of t increases H-value decreases.

2. $y = 0.8(3.6)^{t}$ . This is an exponential function of growth.

As the value of t increases y-value also increases.

3. $f(t) = 0.72(15)^{t}$ . This is an another example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases f(t)-value also increases.

4. $A = \frac{4}{9} (8)^{t}$ . This is again an example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases A-value also increases.

5. $A = (\frac{4}{3})^{t}$ . This is again an example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases A-value also increases.

6. $H = \frac{7}{2} (\frac{5}{6} )^{t}$ . This is another an example of exponential decay function.

As the value of t increases, H-value decreases.

7. g(x) = 0.3(x). This is a non-exponential function. (Answer)

Please help thank you and show all work.

Question 1:

Look at the first attached image.

We want to solve for the height of the smaller building. Let's start by making a right triangle with angle of 15 degrees and adjacent side of 51 m.

Let's solve for the other leg. Multiply the tangent with 51 m to get the length of the other leg.

$51*tan(15)$
$\approx 14$

Now, subtract that from 207 to get the height of the smaller building.

$207-14=193$

That's your answer.

Question 2:

The angle of elevation is congruent to the angle of depression because they are alternate interior angles.

Thus, you can choose the 1st and 4th choices as your answer.

Question 3:

Look at the second attached image.

Angle E is congruent to angle D for the same reasons mentioned in the last question.
We can create an equation.

$3x+1=2(x+8)$

Distributive property

$3x+1=2x+16$

Subtract both sides by 1 and 2x

$x=15$

Since E and D are congruent, just plug this value into one of the equations for E or D. You get 46.

The third choice is your answer. Hope this helps! :)
