A contaminant is leaking into a lake at a rate of R(t) = 1700e^0.06t gal/h. Enzymes that neutralize the contaminant have been ad

ded to the lake over time so that after t hours the fraction of contaminant that remains is S(t) = e^−0.32t. If there are currently 10,000 gallons of the contaminant in the lake, how many gallons will be present in the lake 17 hours from now? (Round your answer to the nearest integer.)

Answer:

16,460 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a differential equation problem, we have a constant flow of contaminant into the lake, but also we know that only a fraction of that quantity of contaminant remains because of the enzymes. For that reason, the differential equation of contaminant's flow into the lake would be:

\frac{dQ}{dt} =1700exp(0.06t)*exp(-0.32t)\\\frac{dQ}{dt} =1700exp(-0.26t)\\

Then, we have to integrate in order to find the equation for Q(t), as the quantity of contaminant in the lake, in function of time.

\int\limits^0_t {dQ}=\int\limits^0_t {1700exp(-0.26t)dt}\\Q(t)=\frac{1700}{-0.26} exp(-0.26t)+C \\

Now, we use the given conditions to replace them in the equation, in order to solve for C

t_{0} =0\\Q_{0}=10,000\\Q_{0}=-6538exp(-0.26*0)+C\\C=10,000+6538=16538

Then, we reorganize the equation and we replace t for 17 hours, in order to determine the quantity of contaminant at that time:

Q_{t} =-6538exp(-0.26t)+16538\\Q_{17} =-6538exp(-0.26*17)+16538\\Q_{17} =16460 gallons

Use the equation and type the ordered-pairs. y = log 3 x {(1/3, a0), (1, a1), (3, a2), (9, a3), (27, a4), (81, a5)
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Considering the given equation y = log_{3}x\\

And the ordered pairs in the format (x, y)

I don't know if it is log of base 3 or 10, but I will assume it is 3.

For (\frac{1}{3}, a_{0} )

x=\frac{1}{3}

y=a_{0}

y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}(\frac{1}{3} )\\y=-\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=-1

So the ordered pair will be (\frac{1}{3}, -1 )

For (1, a_{1} )

x=1

y=a_{1}

y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}1\\y = log_{3}(1)\\Note: \log _a(1)=0\\y = 0

So the ordered pair will be (1, 0 )

For (3, a_{2} )

x=3

y=a_{2}

y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}3\\y = 1

So the ordered pair will be (3, 1 )

For (9, a_{3} )

x=9

y=a_{3}

y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}9\\y=2\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=2

So the ordered pair will be (9, 2 )

For (27, a_{4} )

x=27

y=a_{4}

y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}27\\y=3\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=3

So the ordered pair will be (27, 3 )

For (81, a_{5} )

x=81

y=a_{5}

y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}81\\y=4\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=4

So the ordered pair will be (81, 4 )

05.06)Which net represents the pyramid below? The image of a square pyramid. A hexagon with a triangle connected with a dotted l
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

A square with a triangle connected to each side with a dotted line.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A square pyramid is a pyramid with a square base, four triangular sides, five vertices, and eight edges.

so

The net that represent the pyramid is

A square with a triangle connected to each side with a dotted line.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
