The number y of hits a new website receives each month can be modeled by y = 4070ekt, where t represents the number of months th

e website has been operating. In the website's third month, there were 9,000 hits. Find the value of k. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answer:

<u><em>k = 0.2645</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given model:

y = 4070 e^{kt}

y = no. of hits website received = 9000 (in 3rd month)

t= no. of months website has been operational = 3

put in the above equation:

9000 = 4070  e^{3k}

\frac{9000}{4070} = e^{3k}

\frac{900}{407}=e^{3k}

<u><em>Taking natural logarithm on both sides, we get:</em></u>

ln\frac{900}{407}=ln(e^{3k})

ln\frac{900}{407}= 3k ln<em>e</em>

ln<em>e</em>=1

ln \frac{900}{407}= 3k

or k = \frac{1}{3}ln\frac{900}{(407)}

k =\frac{1}{3}(0.7936)

<em>k = 0.2645</em>

The populations of termites and spiders in a certain house are growing exponentially. The house contains 120 termites the day yo
zysi [14]

Answer:

in order to triple the inicial population of spiders, will take 50395 days

Step-by-step explanation:

we can define the termite population function as T(t) and the one for spiders as S(t) , where t represents time measured in days

since both have and exponencial growth

T(t)= a*e^(b*t)

S(t)= c*e^(d*t)

1) when the day the person moves in , t=0 and T(0)= 120 termites

T(0) = a*e^(b*0) = a = 120

2) after 4 days , t=4 and  the house contains T(4) = 210 termites

T(4)= 120*e^(b*4) = 210 → 4*b = ln (210/120) → b = (1/4)* ln(210/120)= 0.14

therefore

T(t) = 120*e^(0.14*t)

3) 3 days after moving in , t=3, there were T(3) = 120*e^(0.14*3)=182.63≈ 182 termites . The number of spiders is half of the number of termites → S(3) = T(3) * 1 spider/ 2 termites  =91.31 spiders ≈ 91 spiders

4) after 8 days of moving in , t=8, there were T(8) = 120*e^(0.14*8)=367.78≈ 368 termites . The number of spiders is 0.25 times the number of termites → S(8) = T(8) * 1 spider/ 4 termites =91.94 spiders   ≈ 92 spiders

from

S(t)= c*e^(d*t) → d = ln [S (tb)/S (ta) ] / (tb-ta)

therefore d = ln [ S(8)/S(3) ] / (8 - 3 ) = 2.18*10^-5

in order to triple the initial population

S(t3) = 3 *S(0) = 3*[c*e^(d*0)] = 3*c

S(t3) = c*e^(d*t3) = 3* c → t3 = ln(3) / d = 50395 days

A $1,200 Mac is on sale for 15% off. How much was the discount?
Fudgin [204]

Answer: The discount is $180, and the price with the discount is $1,020.

Step-by-step explanation: Multiply 1,200 times .15 to get the discount, or how much you get off. Then subtract the answer, which is $180, from the original price, to get $1,020. This is the price with the discount.

Ratio is 7:9
add the ratio it becomes 16
272 members divided by 16
that makes it 17 per one ratio
women ratio is 9
17x9 is 153
i=153 women in the sports club

same thing with ii except it’s divided by 7
91/7 is 13
which means 13 per ratio
there are 9 ratios of women
9x13=117
ii=117 women in a sports club with 91 men with a ratio of 7:9
