High concentrations of carbon monoxide CO can cause coma and possible death. The time required for a person to reach a COHb leve

l capable of causing a coma can be approximated by the quadratic model T=.0002x^2−.316x+127.9, where T is the exposure time in hours necessary to reach this level and 500≤ x ≤800 is the amount of carbon monoxide present in the air in parts per million? (ppm).
A) What is the exposure time when x= 600? _____hr
B) Estimate the concentration of CO necessary to produce a coma in 9 hr.

Answer:

A) 10.38hours

B) 617.95 is the concerntration of CO

Step-by-step explanation:

A) when x=600

T= 0.0002x^2 - 0.316x + 127.9

T= 0.0002(600)^2 -0.316(600) + 127.9

T= 10.38secs

B) to find the concerntration, use Almighty formular

X=-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a

0.0002x^2-0.316x-127.9=9

0.0002x^2 - 0.316x + 118.9=0

X= 0.316 +- sqrt(0.316^2) -4(0.0002×118.9)/(2×0.0002)

X= 0.316+(0.68817/0.0004)=962.05 or

X=-0.316 -0.68817/0.0004 =617.95

Therefore X is within the domain of 617.95 is the concerntration

Caroline rolls a fair dice 480 times. How many times would Caroline expect to roll a six?
Gnom [1K]
A fair die has 6 sides so a 1/6 chance for each number
So divide 480/6= 80
80 times for each number, 80 for 6

One number is larger than another by 9. If the greater number is increased by 10, and the lesser number is tripled, the sum of t
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The larger number is -6, the smaller number is -15

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers, a and b.

We know that one number is larger than another by 9.

Then we can write:

a = b + 9

then a is larger than b by 9 units.

If the greater number is increased by 10 (a + 10) and the lesser number is tripled (3*b), the sum of the two would be -41:

(a + 10) + 3*b = -41

So we got two equations:

a = b + 9

(a + 10) + 3*b = -41

This is a system of equations.

One way to solve this is first isolate one variable in one of the two equations:

But we can see that the variable "a" is already isolated in the first equation, so we have:

a = b + 9

now we can replace that in the other equation:

(a + 10) + 3*b = -41

(b + 9) + 10 + 3*b = -41

now we can solve this for b.

9 + b + 10 + 3b = -41

(9 + 10) + (3b + b) = -41

19 + 4b = -41

4b = -41 -19 = -60

b = -60/4 = -15

b = -15

then:

a = b + 9

a = -15 + 9 = -6

a = -6
