All of the members of our spray-painting team paint at the same speed. If 20 team members can paint a 4800 square foot wall in 3

6 minutes, then how many minutes would it take for 9 team members to paint a 4200 square foot wall?

Answer:

It takes 70 minutes for 9 team members (painting 60 sq ft per minute) to paint a 4200 sq ft wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

4800 ÷ 20 = 240 sq ft per team member in 36 minutes

240 ÷ 36 = 6.67 sq ft per team member in 1 minute

6.67 × 9 = 60 sq ft per 9 team members in 1 minute

4200 ÷ 60 = 70 minutes (or 1 hour and 10 minutes)

In 1859, 24 rabbits were released into the wild in Australia, where they had no natural predators. Their population grew exponen

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a) P' = P

$P(t) = 24e^{0.693t}$ where t is step of 6 months

b) 7.7 years

c)1064.67 rabbits/year

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation describing the population growth is

$\frac{dP}{dt} = P$

Where t is the range of 6 months, or half of a year.

P(t) would have the form of

$P(t) = P_0e^{kt}$

where $P_0 = 24$ is the initial population

After 6 month (t = 1), the population is doubled to 48

$P(1) = 24e^k = 48$

$e^k = 2$

$k = ln(2) = 0.693$

Therefore $P(t) = 24e^{0.693t}$

where t is step of 6 months

b. We can solve for t to get how long it takes to get to a population of 1,000,000:

$24e^{0.693t} = 1000000$

$e^{0.693t} = 1000000 / 24 = 41667$

$0.693t = ln(41667) = 10.64$

$t = 10.64 / 0.693 = 15.35$

So it would take 15.35 * 0.5 = 7.7 years to reach 1000000

c. $P' = P_0ke^{kt}$

We need to resolve for k if t is in the range of 1 year. In half of a year (t = 0.5), the population is 48

$24e^{0.5k) = 48$

$0.5k = ln2 = 0.693$

$k = 1.386$

Therefore, $P' = 1.386*24e^{1.386t}$

At the mid of the 3rd year, where t = 2.5, we can calculate P'

$P' = 1.386*24e^{1.386*2.5} = 1064.67$ rabbits/year

The radius of a circle is 4 m. Find its area in terms of <br> π<br> π.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

16π

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\text{Radius of circle}: 4 \ \text{m}$

<u>Formula:</u>

$\text{Area of circle} = \pi r^{2}$

Replace the radius in the formula:

$\implies \text{Area of circle} = \pi (4)^{2}$

Evaluate the area:

$\implies \text{Area of circle} = \pi (4)(4)$

$\implies \text{Area of circle} = 16\pi$

Since the question says to determine the area in terms of π, the final answer is 16π.
