Answer:  The answer is given below.


Step-by-step explanation: The description is as follows:

(a)<u> </u>2 lines in the plane : Any two lines in a plane can either be parallel or intersect at only one point.

(b) 3 lines in the plane : Any three lines in a plane may intersect at a point, if so, they are called concurrent lines, or they may never intersect.

(c) 2 lines in space :  There are exactly three possibilities.

* The two lines are distinct and they have no points in common.

* The two lines are distinct and they have exactly one point in common.

* The two lines are really the same line and they have all of their points in common.

(d) ) 3 planes in space : Here also, we have three possibilities:

* The three planes are distinct and they have no points in common.

* The three planes share exactly one point.

* The three planes share infinitely many points, i.e., they could all share a line or they could all be the same plane.

How many cubes that measure 2 inches by 2 inches by 2 inches would fit inside a cube that measures 10 inches by 10 inches by 10
11111nata11111 [884]
25, because a cube that is 10x10 would have an area of 100. and the cubes that are 2x2 would have an area of 4. so you take 100 and divide it by 4. answer is 25.

The rate of change (dP/dt), of the number of people on an ocean beach is modeled by a logistic differential equation. The maximu
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

\frac{dP}{dt} = 2.4P(1 - \frac{P}{1200})

Step-by-step explanation:

The logistic differential equation is as follows:

\frac{dP}{dt} = rP(1 - \frac{P}{K})

In this problem, we have that:

K = 1200, which is the carring capacity of the population, that is, the maximum number of people allowed on the beach.

At 10 A.M., the number of people on the beach is 200 and is increasing at the rate of 400 per hour.

This means that \frac{dP}{dt} = 400 when P = 200. With this, we can find r, that is, the growth rate,

So

\frac{dP}{dt} = rP(1 - \frac{P}{K})

400 = 200r(1 - \frac{200}{1200})

166.67r = 400

r = 2.4

So the differential equation is:

\frac{dP}{dt} = rP(1 - \frac{P}{K})

\frac{dP}{dt} = 2.4P(1 - \frac{P}{1200})

Rama09 [41]
Four tenths is expressed as .4 
five thousandths is expressed as .005
