It was stated in the problem that a given volume of a is inversely proportional with the pressure of the system. It means that the as the volume increases, the pressure would decrease and as the volume decreases, the pressure would increase. We would express it as:

V α 1/P

To change it to an equality, we introduce a proportionality constant, k. We do as follows:

V = k/P

So, to determine what is asked, we need to first calculate for the value of k.

V = k/P
At V = 160 m^3 P = 108 cmHg
160 = k / (108)
k = 17280

Thus, at P = 87 cmHg 
V = 17280 / 87 
V = 198.62 m^3

Find the volume of the figure below.
kiruha [24]

Hello!

To find the volume of a cylinder, use the formula: V = πr²h.

In the formula, r is the radius, and h is height of the figure.

In the given figure, the height of the cylinder is 8 feet and the radius is 5 feet. With those values, we can find the volume of the given figure.

V = π(5)²(8)

V = π(25)(8)

V = 200π, 628.32 (multiplied by π), 628 (multiplied by 3.14)

Therefore, the volume of this cylinder is 628.32 feet cubed.

Can somebody prove this mathmatical induction?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1 step:

n=1, then

\sum \limits_{j=1}^1 2^j=2^1=2\\ \\2(2^1-1)=2(2-1)=2\cdot 1=2

So, for j=1 this statement is true

2 step:

Assume that for n=k the following statement is true

\sum \limits_{j=1}^k2^j=2(2^k-1)

3 step:

Check for n=k+1 whether the statement

\sum \limits_{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=2(2^{k+1}-1)

is true.

Start with the left side:

\sum \limits _{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=\sum \limits _{j=1}^k2^j+2^{k+1}\ \ (\ast)

According to the 2nd step,

\sum \limits_{j=1}^k2^j=2(2^k-1)

Substitute it into the \ast

\sum \limits _{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=\sum \limits _{j=1}^k2^j+2^{k+1}=2(2^k-1)+2^{k+1}=2^{k+1}-2+2^{k+1}=2\cdot 2^{k+1}-2=2^{k+2}-2=2(2^{k+1}-1)

So, you have proved the initial statement

Please please helpp i will mark brainliest!!! 100 points !! ill mark brainliest if its correct.

Answers and Step-by-step explanations:

1. We need to plug in values of x into the functions f(x) and g(x):

f(2) = 2.5 * 2 - 10.5 = -5.5                         g(2) = 64 * (0.5^2) = 16

f(3) = 2.5 * 3 - 10.5 = -3                            g(3) = 64 * (0.5^3) = 8

f(4) = 2.5 * 4 - 10.5 = -0.5                         g(4) = 64 * (0.5^4) = 4

f(5) = 2.5 * 5 - 10.5 = 2                             g(5) = 64 * (0.5^5) = 2

f(6) = 2.5 * 6 - 10.5 = 4.5                          g(6) = 64 * (0.5^6) = 1

2.

(a) Notice that at 14 on the x-axis, the blue line is above 4. Meanwhile, at 14, the red line is less than 2. Obviously, we can see that if the printed ad revenue was less than 2 and the online ad revenue was greater than 4, that's more than a double, so the lead marketing executive is correct.

(b) The approximate year that the revenues were equal is the place where the lines intersect. It's approximately at Year 7.5.

3.

(a) The Western Beach is clearly decreasing; it is decreasing by 2 ft per year. Meanwhile, the Dunes Beach is clearly increasing; it's increasing by 5 ft per year. (I'm not sure what kinds of "patterns" you're looking for).

(b) Year 11 and 12; this is because here, Western is going from 78 to 76 ft and Dunes is going from 75 to 80, so they'll likely coincide sometime in that time interval.

(c) One thing you can do is to create equations (of the form y = mx + b) for each of the beaches and then set those linear equations equal to each other.
