Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial temperature difference of 72 -34 = 38 °F is reduced to a difference of 72 -41 = 31 °F after 35 minutes. The exponential term in the temperature expression could have the factor ...
(31/38)^(t/35) = e^(-kt)
Taking the natural log, we find ...
(t/35)ln(31/38) = -kt
k = ln(38/31)/35 ≈ 0.00581711
To the nearest thousandth, this is ...
k ≈ 0.006
Using this in the equation for temperature, we have ...
T = 72 -38e^(-0.006t)
Filling in the desired value for t (80), we find the turkey temperature after 80 minutes to be about
T = 72 -38e^(-.006×80) = 72 -38e^-.48 ≈ 48.49
T ≈ 48 °F
The value of k is about 0.006, and the turkey temperature is about 48 °F.
