The answer is 9. there are 9 different combinations to choose from.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a differential equation problem most easily solved with an exponential decay equation of the form
. We know that the initial amount of salt in the tank is 28 pounds, so
C = 28. Now we just need to find k.
The concentration of salt changes as the pure water flows in and the salt water flows out. So the change in concentration, where y is the concentration of salt in the tank, is
. Thus, the change in the concentration of salt is found in
inflow of salt - outflow of salt
Pure water, what is flowing into the tank, has no salt in it at all; and since we don't know how much salt is leaving (our unknown, basically), the outflow at 3 gal/min is 3 times the amount of salt leaving out of the 400 gallons of salt water at time t:

Therefore,
or just
and in terms of time,

Thus, our equation is
and filling in 16 for the number of minutes in t:
y = 24.834 pounds of salt
Answer:
3 cars
Step-by-step explanation:
If 12 cars are needed to carry 36 students,
<em>12</em><em>c</em><em>a</em><em>r</em><em>s</em><em> = 36</em>
the number of cars to carry 9 students will be:
xcars = 9
cross the two equations
36x = 12 X 9
36x = 108
x = 108/36
x= 3
Therefore, 3 cars are needed to carry 9 students
OR
12 cars will carry 36 students
so 1 car will carry, (36/12)students
therefore, 1 car will carry 3 students
So, for 9 students,
9students = 9/3 = 3
Answer:
It is D
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the heigh of the soda can be rearanging the volume formula, . We can make that We know that V is 36 and radius is half of the diameter, so radius is 2.
h = 2.87
Now, we can use the height to figure out the volume of a cone. The volume of a cone is
R is 2 again and h is 2.87
12.56*.96 = 12.0576
So a cone with a volume of 12.0576 is the largest that will fit into the soda can
