Suppose you need to deliver 40 terabytes of data to your co-workers in Atlanta (200 km). You have an available 100 Mbps dedicate

d link for data transfer. Alternatively, your friend raises homing pigeons and would be willing to let you borrow one. You have a single 1 TB SD card you can strap to the pigeon. Assume pigeons can fly 1000 km per day and that it takes no time to copy to/from the SD card.

Answer: All data will be sent in 89.39 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Data transfer rate: 100 Mbps=100 \frac{Mb}{s} ×\frac{1Tb}{1024^{2} Mb}×\frac{3600s}{h}=0.3433 \frac{Tb}{h}

The pigeon can fly 1000 km/day and it needs to fly 400 km (round trip).

Pigeon rate: \frac{1000km}{24h}=41.67 \frac{km}{h}

Time of round trip: 400 km÷\frac{1000km}{24h}=9.6 h

So the pigeon can send 1 Tb every 9.6 hours.

If we sum the rates we can get the time for sending all the data:

40 Tb= (0.3433 Tb/h + 1 Tb/9.6h)×t

T= 89.39 hours

Thee population of a town, P(t), is 2000 in the year 2010. Every year, it increases by 1.5%. Write an equation for the populatio
steposvetlana [31]

Given:

In 2010, the population of a town = 2000

Every year, it increase by 1.5%

To find the equation P(t) which represents the population of this town t years from 2010.

Formula

If a be the original population of a town and it increases by b% every year, after t year the population will be

a (1+\frac{b}{100} )^{t}

Now,

Taking, a  =2000, b = 1.5 we get,

P(t) = 2000(1+\frac{1.5}{100} )^{t}

or, P(t) = 2000(1+0.015)^{t}

Hence,

The population of this town t years from 2010 P(t) = 2000(1+0.015)^{t}, Option D.

Svetach [21]

Answer:

y^ ⁻⁹/⁴ * z^⁽⁻³⁾

Step-by-step explanation:

(Y^3 z^4)^(-3/4)   = (y^3)^(-3/4) * (z^4)^(-3/4)

         =  y^3* ⁽⁻³/⁴⁾   * z^4 *⁽⁻³/⁴⁾

           =y^ ⁻⁹/⁴ * z^⁽⁻³⁾

Which expression shows the first step in simplifying 2x – 3(x + 2y) – 5(y – 7x)?
artcher [175]

Answer: Option 3.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. To simplify the expression shown in the problem, the first step is to apply the Distributive property, this means that you must multiply the number that are outside of the parentheses by the numbers inside of them.

2. Then, you have that the first step is:

2x-3(x+2y)-5(y-7x)=2x-3x-6y-5y+35x

3. Therefore, you can conclude that the correct answer is the third option.
