The length of some fish are modeled by a von Bertalanffy growth function. For Pacific halibut, this function has the form L(t) =

200(1 – 0.956e–0.18t ) where L(t) is the length (in centimeters) of a fish t years old.
(a) Find the rate of change of the length as a function of time
(b) In this part, give you answer to the nearest unit. At what rate is the fish growing at age:______.
t= 0 cm/yr
t= 1 cm/yr
t= 6 cm/yr
(c) When will the fish be growing at a rate of 6 cm/yr? (nearest unit)

Answer:

a) L'(t) = 34.416*e^(-0.18*t)

b) L'(0) = 34 cm/yr , L'(1) =29 cm/yr , L'(6) =12 cm/yr

c) t = 10 year                                          

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The length of fish grows with time. It is modeled by the relation:

                                   L(t) = 200*(1-0.956*e^(-0.18*t))

Where,

L: Is length in centimeter of a fist

t: Is the age of the fish in years.

Find:

(a) Find the rate of change of the length as a function of time

(b) In this part, give you answer to the nearest unit. At what rate is the fish growing at age: t = 0 , t = 1, t = 6

c) When will the fish be growing at a rate of 6 cm/yr? (nearest unit)

Solution:

- The rate of change of length of a fish as it ages each year  can be evaluated by taking a derivative of the Length L(t) function with respect to x. As follows:

                             dL(t)/dt = d(200*(1-0.956*e^(-0.18*t))) / dt

                             dL(t)/dt = 34.416*e^(-0.18*t)

- Then use the above relation to compute:

                            L'(t) = 34.416*e^(-0.18*t)

                            L'(0) = 34.416*e^(-0.18*0) = 34 cm/yr

                            L'(1) = 34.416*e^(-0.18*1) = 29 cm/yr

                            L'(6) = 34.416*e^(-0.18*6) = 12 cm/yr

- Next, again use the derived L'(t) to determine the year when fish is growing at a rate of 6 cm/yr:

                             6 cm/yr = 34.416*e^(-0.18*t)

                             e^(0.18*t) = 34.416 / 6

                             0.18*t = Ln(34.416/6)

                             t = Ln(34.416/6) / 0.18

                             t = 10 year

In the figure below, BD and AC are diameters of circle P.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

arc\ DC=30^o

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

The point P is the center of the circle (the drawing is not a scale )

step 1

Find the measure of angle ∠CPD

we know that

m\angle CPD+150^o=180^o ---> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

m\angle CPD=180^o-150^o=30^o

step 2

Find the measure of arc DC

we know that

<u><em>Central angle</em></u> is the angle that has its vertex in the center of the circumference and the sides are radii of it

so

arc\ DC=m\angle CPD ----> by central angle

therefore

arc\ DC=30^o

The graph shows the number of chairs made in a factory during one day .
GaryK [48]

Answer:

C) the factory produces 25 chairs per hour

                     

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the rate of change (slope):  

let:\\(x1,y1) =(2,50)\\(x2,y2)=(4,100)\\m=\frac{100-50}{4-2} =\frac{50}{2} =25 \\

Suppose you have 5 riders and 5 horses, and you want to pair them off so that every rider is assigned one horse (and no horse is
maw [93]

There are 120 ways in which 5  riders and 5 horses can be arranged.

We have,

5 riders and 5 horses,

Now,

We know that,

Now,

Using the arrangement formula of Permutation,

i.e.

The total number of ways ^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!},

So,

For n = 5,

And,

r = 5

As we have,

n = r,

So,

Now,

Using the above-mentioned formula of arrangement,

i.e.

The total number of ways ^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!},

Now,

Substituting values,

We get,

^5N_5 = \frac{5!}{(5-5)!}

We get,

The total number of ways of arrangement = 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120,

So,

There are 120 ways to arrange horses for riders.

Hence we can say that there are 120 ways in which 5  riders and 5 horses can be arranged.
