Construction of the model:

GDP = 577 * (1.032) ^ t, where GDP is in billion dollars and t is the time in years since 1985.

year     t (in years)   GDP (in billion dollars)

1985    0                   577

1986    1                   577* 1.032 = 595.46

1987    2                   577 * (1.032)^2 = 614.52

1988    3                   577 * (1.032)^3 = 634.18

?           t                   577 * (1.032)^t

Then, GDP = 1.8 trillion = 1800 billion = 577 * (1.032)^ t

=> (1.032)^t = 1800 / 577

=> t log (1.032) = log (1800 / 577)

=> t = log (1800 / 577) / log (1.032) = 36.12

Therefore, if the growth rate keeps in 3.2% per year, the GDP will equal 1.80 trillion 36 years after 1985 => 1985 + 36 = 2021.

Answer: 2021

Crawling Crayfish!
boyakko [2]

Answer: Crayfish, 25 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of race is 60 cm

Flicker gets a 10 cm head-start

Cray fish covers 6 cm in 5 s i.e. its speed is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5}=1.2\ cm/s

Flicker covers 4 cm in 5 s, its speed is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{4}{5}=0.8\ cm/s

Time taken by Cray fish to cover the race is

\Rightarrow t_1=\dfrac{60}{1.2}\\\\\Rightarrow t_1=50\ s

Time taken by flicker to cover race with 10 cm head start

\Rightarrow t_2=\dfrac{60-10}{0.8}\\\\\Rightarrow t_2=62.5\ s

Time taken by crayfish is less. Hence, crayfish wins the race

When they both covers the same distance, they tied momentarily i.e.

\Rightarrow 1.2t=10+0.8t\\\Rightarrow 0.4t=10\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{10}{0.4}\\\\\Rightarrow t=25\ s

After 25 s, they tied the race.

A group spends $277.50 to rent a total of 15 tubes. How many of each type of tube does the group rent?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The amount spent on each tube is $18.5

The total amount spent to rent 15 tubes by the group is $277.50.

Since they did not specify in the question the types of tubes they rented, we cannot determine each types of tubes that the group rented but we can determine the amount spent on each tube provided that they are all the same types.

∴

if 15 tubes = $277.50

1 tube = $x

By cross multiplying:

\mathbf {\$(x) = \dfrac{ \$277.50 \times 1 \ tube }{15 \ tube}}

\mathbf {(x) = \$18.5}

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount spent on each tube is $18.5
