There are 4 times as many monkeys as elephants at the zoo. If the totAl number of monkeys and elephants is 35, how many monkeys

Tanya [424]

Let's call the number of elephants x.
x+4x=35
5x=35
x=7
So there are 7 elephants. There are four times as many monkeys.
7×4=28
There are 28 monkeys.

Amoeba dapat membelah diri menjadi 2 setiap 20 menit . Jika mula mula terdapat 15 amoeba maka setelah dua jam banyaknya amoeba a

leva [86]

<span>Amoeba splits 3 times an hour. If Amoeba can split into two every 20 mins then if you divide 60 mins (which would be an hour) by 20 mins (the time they split) you would find that Amoeba can split 3 times in an hour. The question asks how many times it can split in two hours. To find this you have to multiply the 3 times 2. This means that a single Amoeba can split 6 times in two hours. There are 15 Amoeba which means if you take 15 Amoeba time 6 in two hours and 90 would be your answer. There will be 90 Amoeba after the two hours.</span>

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$y+5=2(x-3)$ or $y+9=2(x-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have the ordered pairs

(3,-5) and (1,-9)

substitute the values

$m=\frac{-9+5}{1-3}$

$m=\frac{-4}{-2}$

$m=2$

step 2

Find the equation in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

Analyze two cases

<em>First case</em>

we have

$m=2$

$point\ (3,-5)$

substitute

$y+5=2(x-3)$

<em>Second case</em>

we have

$m=2$

$point\ (1,-9)$

substitute

$y+9=2(x-1)$

Note: The equation of the line in point slope form varies according to the point you choose, in contrast to the slope-intercept form

Demand for Tablet Computers The quantity demanded per month, x, of a certain make of tablet computer is related to the average u

soldier1979 [14.2K]

$x = f ( p ) = \frac { 100 } { 9 } \sqrt { 810,000 - p ^ { 2 } } } \\\\ \qquad { p ( t ) = \dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } } + 200 \quad ( 0 \leq t \leq 60 ) }$

Answer:

12.0 tablet computers/month

Step-by-step explanation:

The average price of the tablet 25 months from now will be:

$p ( 25) = \dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { 25 } } + 200 \\= \dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \times 5 } + 200\\\\=\dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 5 } { 8 } } + 200\\p(25)=\dfrac { 5800 } {13}$

Next, we determine the rate at which the quantity demanded changes with respect to time.

Using Chain Rule (and a calculator)

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}= \dfrac{dx}{dp}\dfrac{dp}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dx}{dp}= \dfrac{d}{dp}\left[{ \dfrac { 100 } { 9 } \sqrt { 810,000 - p ^ { 2 } } }\right] =-\dfrac{100}{9}p(810,000-p^2)^{-1/2}$

$\dfrac{dp}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}\left[\dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } } + 200 \right]=-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } \right]^{-2}t^{-1/2}$

Therefore:

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}= \left[-\dfrac{100}{9}p(810,000-p^2)^{-1/2}\right]\left[-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } \right]^{-2}t^{-1/2}\right]$

Recall that at t=25, $p(25)=\dfrac { 5800 } {13} \approx 446.15$

Therefore:

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}(25)= \left[-\dfrac{100}{9}\times 446.15(810,000-446.15^2)^{-1/2}\right]\left[-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt {25} \right]^{-2}25^{-1/2}\right]\\=12.009$

The quantity demanded per month of the tablet computers will be changing at a rate of 12 tablet computers/month correct to 1 decimal place.
