A digital rain gauge has an outdoor sensor that collects rainfall and transmits data to an indoor display. Assume you produced a

graph of all the data collected by the rain gauge over a 24-hour period. a. Would that graph be a discrete graph or a continuous graph? Explain your reasoning. b. b. Describe the general shape of the graph assuming it rained at a rate of 0.1 inch per hour for the entire 24-hour period. c. c. Describe the general shape of the graph assuming it rained 0.1 inch per hour for 6 hours, stopped raining for 6 hours, and then rained 0.2 inch for 12 hours.

Answer:

a. A continuous graph

b. a straight line graph with a gentle positive slope

c. The graph consists of three straight lines attached end to end, with the first segment being an inclined positively sloped graph, the second segment is an horizontal line while the third segment is a gentle positively sloped straight line

Step-by-step explanation:

a. A continuous graph

Given that the rain gauge is a digital rain gauge, the values transmitted to the indoor display are those collected by the outdoor sensor, we have that the output to the transmitter can be any value within a possible and finite range of values, therefore the graph is continuous

b. Whereby it rained at a constant rate of 0.1 inch per hour over 24-hour period, we have;

i) Whereby the graph is the level of water in the rain gauge over a given period of time, the shape of the graph will be a straight line graph with a gentle positive slope of 0.1 the domain will be from 0 to 24 hours, while the range will be from 0 to 2.4 inches

c) i) Given that i) the rain falls at a constant rate of 0.1 inch per hour for 6 hours, and ii) over the next 6 hours it stops raining, after which iii) it rained 0.2 inch for the next 12 hours, we have;

i) In the first part The graph will be a straight line graph with a gentle positive slope of 0.1, up to the point (6, 0.6)

ii) When the rain stops for 6 hours, from the point (6, 0.6) to the point (12, 0.12) the graph will be an horizontal line

iii) From the point (12, 0.12) to the point (24, 0.24), is represented on the graph by a straight  line with a gentle positive slope of 0.2.

Given △XPS≅△DNF, find the values of x and y.
White raven [17]

Answer:

x = 3

y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

If △XPS ≅△DNF, their corresponding sides would be congruent. This implies that:

XP ≅ DN

PS ≅ NF

XS ≅ DF

Given that:

XP = 4y - 3

DN = 57

NF = 51

XS = 17x + 3

DF = 54

Therefore:

XP = DN

4y - 3 = 57 (Substitution)

Add 3 to both sides

4y = 57 + 3

4y = 60

Divide both sides by 4

y = 60/4

y = 15

Also,

XS = DF

17x + 3 = 54 (substitution)

Subtract 3 from each side

17x = 54 - 3

17x = 51

Divide both sides by 17

x = 51/17

x = 3

According to​ psychologists, IQs are normally​ distributed, with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 . a. What percenta
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Answer: 34%.

By definition of normal distribution, ≈68% of the data is within 1 standard deviation of the mean. Therefore 68% of IQs are between 85 and 115, and half of that is on the lower end, 85 to 100.

Set up (do not evaluate) the integral which gives the volume when region bounded by curves y=Ln(x), y=2, and x=1 is revolved aro
ladessa [460]

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the region: desmos.com/calculator/rbe6rq61a2

When the region is rotated about y=-2, the resulting shape is a horizontal, hollow cylinder.  The volume can be found with either washer method or shell method.

To use washer method, cut a thin vertical slice of the region.  Rotated around y=-2, this slice becomes a washer.  The width of this washer is dx.  The outer radius is 2 − (-2) = 4.  The inner radius is y − (-2) = y + 2.  The volume of the washer is:

dV = π (4² − (y + 2)²) dx

dV = π (4² − (ln x + 2)²) dx

The total volume is the sum of the washers from x=1 to x=e².

V = ∫ dV

V = ∫₁ᵉ² π (4² − (ln x + 2)²) dx

To instead use shell method, cut a thin horizontal slice of the region.  Rotated around y=-2, this slice becomes a cylindrical shell.  The thickness of the shell is dy.  The radius is y − (-2) = y + 2.  The width is x − 1.  The volume of the shell is:

dV = 2π (y + 2) (x − 1) dy

dV = 2π (y + 2) (eʸ − 1) dy

The total volume is the sum of the shells from y=0 to y=2.

V = ∫ dV

V = ∫₀² 2π (y + 2) (eʸ − 1) dy
