Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

B = 70 × r^t

360 = 70 × r⁴

r⁴ = 36/7

4lnr = ln(36/7)

lnr = 0.4094021974

r = e^0.4094021974

r = 1.505917275

At t = 7,

B = 70 × (1.505917275)⁷

B = 1229.435775

Approximately 1229

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

This describes an expotential function

At t = 0, P = 70

Therefore, C = 70

P = 70 e^kt

Solve for k by plugging in (4,360)

k = 0.4094

plug in t(7 hours)

70 e^(0.4094*7)

The answer roughly equals C

Find two positive numbers whose product is 36 and whose sum is a minimum.
alukav5142 [94]
Let one of the numbers be x. The other number cab then be represented as 36-x (x+36-x = 36).
The product can then be represented as y = x(36-x) or y=36x-x2

The maximum or minimum is always on the axis of symmetry which has the formula x=-b/2a.
In our case, the axis of symmetry is -36/-2, so x=18.

If one number is 18 and the 2 numbers add to 36, the other number is 18 as well.
So the 2 numbers are 18 and 18 and the maximum product is 324,

What is b in terms of a and c?
aev [14]

Answer:

b=\sqrt{c^2-a^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation is

c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

To make b the subject, we square both sides of the equation to get;

c^2=(\sqrt{a^2+b^2})^2

c^2=a^2+b^2

Isolate b on one side of the equation;

c^2-a^2=b^2

Or

b^2=c^2-a^2

We take the positive square root of both sides to get;

b=\sqrt{c^2-a^2}
