Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is based on unit conversion from miles per hour to meter per second.'

From tables 1 mph= 0.44704 m/s

Given 248 mph to be converted to meters per second.

hence we have

1 mph= 0.44704 m/s

248 mph= x

cross multiplying we have

x= 110.86592 m/s

to the nearest hundreth we have

The population of a certain community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. If

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

$t=7.85 years$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write this rate as an ordinary differential equation.

$\frac{dP}{dt}=aP$

Where a is proportional constant, P the population variable, and t the time.

$\frac{dP}{P}=adt$

Integrating each side of the equation.

$\int \frac{dP}{P}=\int adt$

$ln(P)=at+c$

$P=e^{at+c}$

$P=e^{c}e^{at}=Ce^{at}$

To find C we need to use the initial condiction, it means evaluae P at t=0.

$P_{0}=Ce^{0}=C$

$P=P_{0}e^{at}$

Now, we use the sentence the population has doubled in 5 years.

$2P_{0}=P_{0}e^{a5}$

We can find "a" in this condition.

$2=e^{a5}$

$ln(2)=a5$

$a=\frac{ln(2)}{5}$

$a=0.14$

Finally, let's find how long will it take to triple.

$3P_{0}=P_{0}e^{0.14t}$

$3=e^{0.14t}$

$t=\frac{ln(3)}{0.14}$

$t=7.85 years$

I hope it helps you!

A jar of peanut butter contains 454 g with a standard deviation of 10.2 g. Find the probability that a jar contains more than 46

Fofino [41]

Answer:

The probability that a jar contains more than 466 g is 0.119.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a jar of peanut butter contains a mean of 454 g with a standard deviation of 10.2 g.

Let X = <u><em>Amount of peanut butter in a jar</em></u>

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean = 454 g

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 10.2 g

So, X ~ Normal( $\mu=454 , \sigma^{2} = 10.2^{2}$ )

Now, the probability that a jar contains more than 466 g is given by = P(X > 466 g)

P(X > 466 g) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ > $\frac{466-454}{10.2}$ ) = P(Z > 1.18) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.18)

= 1 - 0.881 = <u>0.119</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.18 in the z table which has an area of 0.881.

A. Write two explicit formulas for arithmetic sequences.

IgorLugansk [536]

Explicit formulas for arithmetic sequences are derived from terms in arithmetic sequences. It helps to find each term in arithmetic progression easily. The arithmetic progression is a1, a2, a3, ..., an. where the first term is denoted as 'a', we have a = a1, and the tolerance is denoted as 'd'. The tolerance formula is d = a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = an - an - 1. The nth term of the arithmetic progression represents the explicit formula for the arithmetic progression.

Explicit formula: an= a + (n − 1) d

Explicit formula: Sn = n/2 [2a+(n-1) d]

Where,

nth term in the arithmetic sequence

a = first term in the arithmetic sequence

d = difference (each term and its term difference) previous term, i.e., d = an-an-1
