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

m number of people allowed on the beach is 1200. At 10 A.M., the number of people on the beach is 200 and is increasing at the rate of 400 per hour. Whats the differential equation which can describe this situation?

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})

Unit rate of 14.25 for 3 pounds of deli meat
Neko [114]
To find the unit rate, you have to find how much each pound costs

so 14.25/3 is the expression that will get you the answer

14.25/3= 4.75

4.75 per pound is your answer

Which matrix represents the system of equations shown below? 3x-5y=12 4x-2y=15
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5  &|12\\4&-2  &|15\\\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

When making a matrix of two equations with the variables x and y, the result will be a matrix with three columns:

  • a column for the values of x in each equation
  • a column for the values of y in each equation
  • a column for the independent values of each equation

since our system of equations is:

3x-5y=12\\ 4x-2y=15

we can see that the value for x in the first equation is 3 and in the second equation is 4, thus the first column will have the numbers 3 and 4:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&&\\4&&\\\end{array}\right]

Now for the values of y we hvae -5 in the first equation and -2 in the second equation, we update the matrix with another column with the values of -5 and -2:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5&\\4&-2&\\\end{array}\right]

Finally, the last column is the independent values of each equation (or the results) in the first equation that number is 12 and in the second equation is 15, thus the matrix is:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5&12\\4&-2&15\\\end{array}\right]

usually there is a line separating the columns for the values of x and y, and the independent values:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5  &|12\\4&-2  &|15\\\end{array}\right]

this is the matrix of the system of equations

First off, you should see whether the data is qualitative or quantitative.

-Quantitative is the number that represents counts or measurements.

-Qualitative (aka Categorical) typically labels or non-numeric entries

So, and example of some qualitative graphs are:
-Bar Graphs: usually comparison of things
-Two Way Tables: typically a survey with the comparison of data
-Circle Graph (Pie Chart): percentages being compared from different categories
-Frequency Tables: shows how often something appears

Some examples of quantitative graphs are:
-Box and Whiskers: shows the low, high, median of 1st quartile, median, median of 3rd quartile, and the high of data
-Line Graph: shows the change of something over a period of time
-Histogram: compares the data using frequency intervals, like 1-5, 6-10, etc.
-Scatterplot: shows the correlation of the data
-Stem and Leaf: first number goes in stem, remaining parts of number goes in leaf depending on what the first number it was, and key to help

So if you're trying to link the graph to something in your life, the graph may vary depending on what the data is. If you're going height over the years you've lived, a line graph would be best. It really depends what in your life you are doing, so I hope I provided enough information to help you out. Hope this helps!

SVEN [57.7K]
Tangerine is simply color orange, which is an addition of red and yellow colors. To analyze if the portions written below are reasonable, the given sum must equal to the sum of the individual red and yellow parts.

Total Red + Total Yellow = 5(3/10)
3(9/10) + 2(3/8) ? 5(3/10
3.45 ? 1.5
3.45 ≠ 1.5

<em>Since they are not equal, then it means the portions are unreasonable.</em>
