Answer:
D = L/k
Step-by-step explanation:
Since A represents the amount of litter present in grams per square meter as a function of time in years, the net rate of litter present is
dA/dt = in flow - out flow
Since litter falls at a constant rate of L grams per square meter per year, in flow = L
Since litter decays at a constant proportional rate of k per year, the total amount of litter decay per square meter per year is A × k = Ak = out flow
So,
dA/dt = in flow - out flow
dA/dt = L - Ak
Separating the variables, we have
dA/(L - Ak) = dt
Integrating, we have
∫-kdA/-k(L - Ak) = ∫dt
1/k∫-kdA/(L - Ak) = ∫dt
1/k㏑(L - Ak) = t + C
㏑(L - Ak) = kt + kC
㏑(L - Ak) = kt + C' (C' = kC)
taking exponents of both sides, we have

When t = 0, A(0) = 0 (since the forest floor is initially clear)


So, D = R - A =

when t = 0(at initial time), the initial value of D =

Problem
For a quadratic equation function that models the height above ground of a projectile, how do you determine the maximum height, y, and time, x , when the projectile reaches the ground
Solution
We know that the x coordinate of a quadratic function is given by:
Vx= -b/2a
And the y coordinate correspond to the maximum value of y.
Then the best options are C and D but the best option is:
D) The maximum height is a y coordinate of the vertex of the quadratic function, which occurs when x = -b/2a
The projectile reaches the ground when the height is zero. The time when this occurs is the x-intercept of the zero of the function that is farthest to the right.
The sample size must be 543 so the sample proportion is will not differ by 5%
We are given the following in the question:
Margin of error = 5%
Confidence interval:
p ±z√(p'(1 - p')/n)
Margin of error =
p = ±z√(p'(1 - p')/n)
Since no particular proportion is given, we take
p' = 0.5
Z critical at α 0.02 is ± 2.33
Putting values, we get,
p = ±z√(p'(1 - p')/n)
2.33 x √(0.5(1 - 0.5)/n)
√n = 2.33x 0.5/0.05
n = 542.89 = 543
Thus, the sample size must be 543 so the sample proportion is will not differ by 5%
