Air pressure may be represented as a function of height (in meters) above the

Mathematics

Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: "Air pressure may be represented as a function of height (in meters) above the surface of the Earth, as shown below:</h3><h3>  P(h) =P_0e^{-0.00012h} </h3><h3> In this function P_o   is the air pressure at the surface of the earth, and h is the height above the surface of the Earth, measured in meters. At what height will the air pressure equal 50% of the air pressure at the surface of the Earth"</h3><h3></h3>

Given the following function:

P(h) =P_0e^{-0.00012h}

In order to calculate at what  height the air pressure will be equal 50% of the air pressure at the surface of the Earth, you can follow these steps:

1. You need to substitute P(h)=0.5P_o into the function:

0.5P_o=P_0e^{-0.00012h}

2. Finally, you must solve for h.

Remember the following property of logarithms:

ln(b)^a=a*ln(b)\\\\ln(e)=1

Then, you get this result:

0.5P_o=\frac{P_o}{e^{0.00012h}}\\\\(0.5P_o)(e^{0.00012h})=P_o\\\\e^{0.00012h}=\frac{P_o}{0.5P_o}\\\\ln(e)^{0.00012h}=ln(2)\\\\0.00012h*1=ln(2)\\\\h=\frac{ln(2)}{0.00012}\\\\h=5576.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Jillian's puppy Weight  at 2 months  =16 pounds

Jillian's puppy Weight  at 8 months  =60 pounds

Evaluate the piecewise function at the indicated values from the domain:
lidiya [134]

In this question, we given a piece-wise function, that has different definitions depending on the domain.

Evaluate the function at x = 0.

The exercise asks for us to evaluate the function at x = 0

We have to look at the definition, and see which definition includes x = 0. The equal sign at x = 0 is on the second definition, that is:

f(x) = 1, 0 \leq x < 2

Thus, at x = 0, the value of the function is 1, and the correct answer is given by option A.
