50,000 contestants participate in an on-line game. The game randomly eliminates 20% of the contestants each day. Determine the n

irga5000 [103]

Answer:10,486 contestants

Step-by-step explanation:

First day:

Total number of contestants at the beginning = 50,000

After first day, 20% 0f 50,000 are removed.

That is, (20/100)×50,000 = 10,000

Contestants remaining after first day = 50,000-10,000 = 40,000

Second day:

Contestants= 40,000

20% removed

That is (20/100)×40000=8000

Balance =40000-8000=32,000

Third day:

Contestants= 32000

20% removed

That is (20/100)×32000=6400

Balance =32000-6400=25,600

Fouth day:

Contestants= 25,600

20% removed

That is (20/100)×25,600=5,120

Balance =25,600-5,120=20,480

Fifth day:

Contestants= 20,480

20% removed

That is (20/100)×20,480=4096

Balance =20,480-4096=16,384

Sixth day:

Contestants= 16,384

20% removed

That is (20/100)×16,384=3276.8

Balance =16,384-3276.8=13,107.2

Seventh day:

Contestants= 13,107.2

20% removed

That is (20/100)×13,107.2=2621.44

Balance =13107.2-2621.44=10485.76

Therefore, number of contestants remaining after one week equals 10,486.

Use polar coordinates to find the volume of the given solid. bounded by the paraboloid z = 5 + 2x2 + 2y2 and the plane z = 11 in

podryga [215]

Using cylindrical coordinates,

$\displaystyle\int_{x=0}^{x=\sqrt3}\int_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{3-x^2}}\int_{z=5+2x^2+2y^2}^{z=11}\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx$
$\displaystyle=\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=\pi/2}\int_{r=0}^{r=\sqrt3}\int_{z=5+2r^2}^{z=11}r\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta$
$=\displaystyle\frac\pi2\int_{r=0}^{r=\sqrt3}r(11-(5+2r^2))\,\mathrm dr$
$=\displaystyle\pi\int_{r=0}^{r=\sqrt3}(3r-r^3)\,\mathrm dr$
$=\dfrac{9\pi}4$

Stephon has a square brick patio. He wants to reduce the width by 4 feet and increase the length by 4 feet.

alekssr [168]

Answer: The expressions for the length and width of the new patio are

$\ell=x+4,~~w=x-4.$

And the area of the new patio is 384 sq. feet.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Stephen has a square brick patio. He wants to reduce the width by 4 feet and increase the length by 4 feet.

The length of one side of the square patio is represented by x.

We are to write the expressions for the length and width of the new patio and then to find the area of the new patio if the original patio measures 20 feet by 20 feet.

Since Stephen wants to reduce width of the patio by 4 feet, so the width of the new patio will be

$w=(x-4)~\textup{feet}.$
