Gavyn, Pip and Mark share £102 in a ratio 1:2:3. How much money does each person get?

2 answers:

8 0

Gavyn, Pip, Mark....ratio 1:2:3....total of 6. This means that Gavyn gets 1/6 of the total amount, Pip gets 2/6 of the total amount, and Mark gets 3/6 of the total amount.

the total amount is 102..

1/6 * 102 = 102/6 = 17 <== what Gavyn gets
2/6 * 102 = 204/6 = 34 <== what Pip gets
3/6 * 102 = 306/6 = 51 <== what Mark gets

Find the missing value so<br> that the two points have a<br> slope of -13/2 (-2,y) and (0,-4

Art [367]

Answer:

y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), so we plug in the values. (-4-y)/(0 - (-2)). so we get -4-y/2 since zero minus negative 2 is positive 2. given the slope is -13/2, -4-y must be equal to negative 13. So we set an equation of -13 = -4 - y. We add 4 to 13, and get -9 = -y. We multiply each side by a -1, and we get y equals 9.

We can check this by plugging 9 back into our original slope equation. (-4-9)/(0-(-2) which gives us -13/2.

A breeder reactor converts uranium-238 into an isotope of plutonium-239 at a rate proportional to the amount of uranium-238 pres

topjm [15]

Let $U(t)$ denote the amount of uranium-238 in the reactor at time $t$ . As conversion to plutonium-239 occurs, the amount of uranium will decrease, so the conversion rate is negative. Because the rate is proportional to the current amount of uranium, we have

$\dfrac{\mathrm dU}{\mathrm dt}=-kU$

where $k>0$ is constant. Separating variables and integrating both sides gives

$\dfrac{\mathrm dU}U=-k\,\mathrm dt\implies\ln|U|=-kt+C\implies U=Ce^{-kt}$

Suppose we start some amount $u$ . This means that at time $t=0$ we have $U(0)=u$ , so that

$u=Ce^{-0k}\implies C=u\implies U=ue^{-kt}$

We're given that after 10 years, 99.97% of the original amount of uranium remains. This means (if $t$ is taken to be in years) for some starting amount $u$ ,

$0.9997u=ue^{-10k}\implies k=-\dfrac{\ln(0.9997)}{10}$
