A countertop is 16 feet long and 3 feet wide. what is the area of the countertop in square meters

1 answer:

8 0

The area of the countertop is (16-ft x 3-ft) = 48 feet² .

1 foot = 0.3048 meter (rounded)

(1 foot)² = (0.3048 meter)² = 0.0929 meter²

48 feet² = (48 x 0.0929) = 4.459 meter² (rounded)

A 100 gallon tank initially contains 100 gallons of sugar water at a concentration of 0.25 pounds of sugar per gallon suppose th

Vsevolod [243]

At the start, the tank contains

(0.25 lb/gal) * (100 gal) = 25 lb

of sugar. Let $S(t)$ be the amount of sugar in the tank at time $t$ . Then $S(0)=25$ .

Sugar is added to the tank at a rate of P lb/min, and removed at a rate of

$\left(1\frac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right)\left(\dfrac{S(t)}{100}\dfrac{\rm lb}{\rm gal}\right)=\dfrac{S(t)}{100}\dfrac{\rm lb}{\rm min}$

and so the amount of sugar in the tank changes at a net rate according to the separable differential equation,

$\dfrac{\mathrm dS}{\mathrm dt}=P-\dfrac S{100}$

Separate variables, integrate, and solve for S.

$\dfrac{\mathrm dS}{P-\frac S{100}}=\mathrm dt$

$\displaystyle\int\dfrac{\mathrm dS}{P-\frac S{100}}=\int\mathrm dt$

$-100\ln\left|P-\dfrac S{100}\right|=t+C$

$\ln\left|P-\dfrac S{100}\right|=-100t-100C=C-100t$

$P-\dfrac S{100}=e^{C-100t}=e^Ce^{-100t}=Ce^{-100t}$

$\dfrac S{100}=P-Ce^{-100t}$

$S(t)=100P-100Ce^{-100t}=100P-Ce^{-100t}$

Use the initial value to solve for C :

$S(0)=25\implies 25=100P-C\implies C=100P-25$

$\implies S(t)=100P-(100P-25)e^{-100t}$

The solution is being drained at a constant rate of 1 gal/min; there will be 5 gal of solution remaining after time

$1000\,\mathrm{gal}+\left(-1\dfrac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right)t=5\,\mathrm{gal}\implies t=995\,\mathrm{min}$

has passed. At this time, we want the tank to contain

(0.5 lb/gal) * (5 gal) = 2.5 lb

of sugar, so we pick P such that

$S(995)=100P-(100P-25)e^{-99,500}=2.5\implies\boxed{P\approx0.025}$

What's the solution and answer? And explain please

Advocard [28]

The solution is subtract4.7x on both sides. Then you get -2.2x=7.7. Divide 7.7 by -2.2 and you get x= -3.5

An engineer is designing a large steel pad to be installed on the deck of an aircraft carrier. Its total volume will be 18 yd^3.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The cost of the material for the full-sized pad is;

d) 222,750.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters of the steel pad and the scale model are;

The volume of the deck = 18 yd³

The dimensions of the model of the same material = 6 feet by 4.5 feet and 4.5 inches thick

The weight of the sample, m₂ = 75 lbs

The cost of the steel, P = $55/lb

The dimensions of the sample in yards are;

6 feet = 2 yards, 4.5 feet = 1.5 yards, and 4 inches = 0. $\overline 1$ yards

The volume of the sample, V₂ = 2 yd. × 1.5 yd. × 0. $\overline 1$ yd. = (1/3) yd.³

The density of the sample material, ρ = m₂/V₂

∴ The density of the sample material, ρ = 75 lbs/((1/3)yd.³) = 225 lbs/yd³

Therefore, the density of the material of the pad, ρ = 225 lbs/yd³

The mass of the steel pad, m₁ = ρ × V₁

∴ The mass of the steel pad, m₁ = 225 lbs/yd³ × 18 yd³ = 4,050 lbs

The cost of the material for the full-sized steel pad, C = m₁ × P

∴ C = 4,050 lbs × $55/lb = $222,750
