Answer:

60 in

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Steve built a square dog pen of perimeter=240 in

We have to find the length of one side of Steve's dog pen.

To find the value of length of Steve's side we will use the formula of perimeter of square.

We know that

Perimeter of square= $4\times side$

Substitute the values in the given formula

$240=4\times side$

$Side=\frac{240}{4}=60$

Length of Steve' s dog pen=60 in

Hence, the length of one side of Steve's dog pen=60 in

Answer:

1/4 of a mile in 1/10 of an hour

you can set up a proportion

(1/4)/(1/10)=2/H

you can now simplify or cross multiply

simplifying the left side

(1/4) divided by (1/10) equals (1/4) times (10/1)

(1/4)*(10/1)=10/4=5/2

5/2=2/H

cross multiply

5H=2*2

5H=4

H=4/5 of an hour or (4/5)*60=48 minutes

another solution...

2/(1/4)=8 and 8*(1/10)=8/10=4/5 of an hour or 48 minutes again

A rumor spreads through a small town. Let y(t) be the fraction of the population that has heard the rumor at time t and assume t

Answer:

The answer is shown below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y(t) be the fraction of the population that has heard the rumor at time t and assume that the rate at which the rumor spreads is proportional to the product of the fraction y of the population that has heard the rumor and the fraction 1−y that has not yet heard the rumor.

$\frac{dy}{dt}\ \alpha\ y(1-y)$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=ky(1-y)$

where k is the constant of proportionality, dy/dt = rate at which the rumor spreads

$\frac{dy}{dt}=ky(1-y)\\\frac{dy}{y(1-y)}=kdt\\\int\limits {\frac{dy}{y(1-y)}} \, =\int\limit {kdt}\\\int\limits {\frac{dy}{y}} +\int\limits {\frac{dy}{1-y}} =\int\limit {kdt}\\\\ln(y)-ln(1-y)=kt+c\\ln(\frac{y}{1-y}) =kt+c\\taking \ exponential \ of\ both \ sides\\\frac{y}{1-y} =e^{kt+c}\\\frac{y}{1-y} =e^{kt}e^c\\let\ A=e^c\\\frac{y}{1-y} =Ae^{kt}\\y=(1-y)Ae^{kt}\\y=\frac{Ae^{kt}}{1+Ae^{kt}} \\at \ t=0,y=10\%\\0.1=\frac{Ae^{k*0}}{1+Ae^{k*0}} \\0.1=\frac{A}{1+A} \\A=\frac{1}{9} \\$
