Answer:

The average speed of the boat is 20 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A boat that moves 15.0 km across a lake in 45 min.

To find : What was the average speed in km/h ?

Solution :

The distance a boat covered is 15 km.

The time taken by boat to cross a lake is 45 minutes.

Convert minute into hour,

1 hour = 60 minute

1 minute = $\frac{1}{60}$ hour

45 minute = $\frac{45}{60}$ hour

45 minute = 0.75 hour

The speed of the boat is given by,

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

$\text{Speed}=\frac{15}{0.75}$

$\text{Speed}=20$

The average speed of the boat is 20 km/hr.

Determining Components of an Exponential Function A doctor estimates that a particular patient is losing bone density at a rate

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

f(x) = 1500(0.97)ˣ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

f(x) = abˣ

a is the initial bone density, that is the bone density at 0 years, x is the number of years and b is any real value. For an exponential growth, b > 1 while for an exponential decay, b < 1.

Since the bone has a current density of 1,500 kg/m³, hence a = 1500.

The density is lost at a rate of 3% annually, therefore b = 100% - 3% = 97% = 0.97.

Therefore substituting the values of a and b into the function gives:

f(x) = 1500(0.97)ˣ

Find sin20 if sin 0 = 3; 90° < 0 < 180°

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

$\sin 2 \theta = -\dfrac{4\sqrt 5}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Given that,}\\\\~~~~~~\sin \theta = \dfrac 23\\\\\implies \sin^2 \theta = \left( \dfrac 23 \right)^2\\\\\implies 1- \cos^2 \theta = \dfrac 49 \\\\\implies \cos^2 \theta = 1 - \dfrac 49 \\\\\implies \cos^2 \theta = \dfrac 59\\\\\implies \cos \theta = \pm\sqrt{\dfrac 59} \\\\\implies \cos \theta = \pm \dfrac{\sqrt 5 }3\\\\\text{Since}~ 90^\circ < \theta < 180^{\circ},~\text{the angle lies in 2nd quadrant}\left(\cos \theta ~\text{is negative}\right).\\\\$

$\text{So,}~ \cos \theta = - \dfrac{\sqrt 5 }{3}\\\\\text{Now,}\\\\\sin 2\theta = 2\sin \theta \cos \theta \\\\\\~~~~~~~~=2 \cdot \dfrac 23 \cdot \left( -\dfrac{\sqrt 5}{3} \right)\\\\\\~~~~~~~~=-\dfrac{4\sqrt 5}{9}$

$\textbf{Quadrant rule:}\\\\$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can substitute 40 into c, work out the equation and you'll get $75 as the profit. Each candy bar is $2.5 so c would be the number of candy bars she sold.
