1 answer:

7 0

The answer is V = 34,992 y^3

You can answer this using an online calculator - calculator soup dot com under geometry then pyramid. Select given a (side length) and s (slant height). Enter the amounts to find V (volume).

To manually compute, get the h (height) first before computing for V (volume).

h^2 = l^2 - (s/2)^2 : l (slant height), s (base edge/side)
h = √((45^2) - (54/2)^2)
h = 36

Then find V (volume) : s (side), h (height)

V = 1/3 (s^2)(h)
V = 1/3 (54^2)(36)
V = 34,992 y^3

A rumor spreads through a small town. Let y(t) be the fraction of the population that has heard the rumor at time t and assume t

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The answer is shown below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y(t) be the fraction of the population that has heard the rumor at time t and assume that the rate at which the rumor spreads is proportional to the product of the fraction y of the population that has heard the rumor and the fraction 1−y that has not yet heard the rumor.

$\frac{dy}{dt}\ \alpha\ y(1-y)$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=ky(1-y)$

where k is the constant of proportionality, dy/dt = rate at which the rumor spreads

$\frac{dy}{dt}=ky(1-y)\\\frac{dy}{y(1-y)}=kdt\\\int\limits {\frac{dy}{y(1-y)}} \, =\int\limit {kdt}\\\int\limits {\frac{dy}{y}} +\int\limits {\frac{dy}{1-y}} =\int\limit {kdt}\\\\ln(y)-ln(1-y)=kt+c\\ln(\frac{y}{1-y}) =kt+c\\taking \ exponential \ of\ both \ sides\\\frac{y}{1-y} =e^{kt+c}\\\frac{y}{1-y} =e^{kt}e^c\\let\ A=e^c\\\frac{y}{1-y} =Ae^{kt}\\y=(1-y)Ae^{kt}\\y=\frac{Ae^{kt}}{1+Ae^{kt}} \\at \ t=0,y=10\%\\0.1=\frac{Ae^{k*0}}{1+Ae^{k*0}} \\0.1=\frac{A}{1+A} \\A=\frac{1}{9} \\$

$y=\frac{\frac{1}{9} e^{kt}}{1+\frac{1}{9} e^{kt}}\\y=\frac{1}{1+9e^{-kt}}$

At t = 2, y = 40% = 0.4

c) At y = 75% = 0.75

$y=\frac{1}{1+9e^{-0.8959t}}\\0.75=\frac{1}{1+9e^{-0.8959t}}\\t=3.68\ days$

Dy/dx = 2xy^2 and y(-1) = 2 find y(2)

Anarel [89]

—————

Solve the initial value problem:

dy
——— = 2xy², y = 2, when x = – 1.
dx

Separate the variables in the equation above:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{y^2}=2x\,dx}\\\\
\mathsf{y^{-2}\,dy=2x\,dx}$

Integrate both sides:

$\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\!y^{-2}\,dy=\int\!2x\,dx}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{y^{-2+1}}{-2+1}=2\cdot \dfrac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{y^{-1}}{-1}=\diagup\hspace{-7}2\cdot \dfrac{x^2}{\diagup\hspace{-7}2}+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{y}=x^2+C_1}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{y}=-(x^2+C_1)}$

Take the reciprocal of both sides, and then you have

$\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2+C_1}\qquad\qquad where~C_1~is~a~constant\qquad (i)}$

In order to find the value of C₁ , just plug in the equation above those known values for x and y, then solve it for C₁:

y = 2, when x = – 1. So,

$\mathsf{2=-\,\dfrac{1}{1^2+C_1}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{2=-\,\dfrac{1}{1+C_1}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}=1+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}-1=C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{2}{2}=C_1}$

$\mathsf{C_1=-\,\dfrac{3}{2}}$

Substitute that for C₁ into (i), and you have

$\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2-\frac{3}{2}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2-\frac{3}{2}}\cdot \dfrac{2}{2}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{2}{2x^2-3}}$

So y(– 2) is

$\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{2\cdot (-2)^2-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{2\cdot 4-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{8-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{5}}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the answer.}$

I hope this helps. =)

A math professor notices that scores from a recent exam are normally distributed with a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 8

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a) 25% of the students exam scores fall below 55.6.

b) The minimum score for an A is 84.68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 8.

This means that $\mu = 61, \sigma = 8$

(a) What score do 25% of the students exam scores fall below?

Below the 25th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, that is, X when Z = -0.675.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$-0.675 = \frac{X - 61}{8}$

$X - 61 = -0.675*8$

$X = 55.6$

25% of the students exam scores fall below 55.6.

(b) Suppose the professor decides to grade on a curve. If the professor wants 0.15% of the students to get an A, what is the minimum score for an A?

This is the 100 - 0.15 = 99.85th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9985. So X when Z = 2.96.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$2.96 = \frac{X - 61}{8}$

$X - 61 = 2.96*8$

$X = 84.68$

The minimum score for an A is 84.68.

Write the equation in point slope intercept form of the line that passes through (6,-11) and is parallel to the graph of y=-2/3x

Alina [70]

Answer:

y+11=-2/3(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the parallel line, we would just plug in the numbers in the point-slope form from what we're given. We have y=-2/3x+12 and (6,-11).

Point-slope form:

y-y1=m(x-x1) → y+11=-2/3(x-6)

m represents the slope, which is -2/3 in this situation.

y1 represents the y coordinate, which is -11 in this situation. However, when we plug in negative numbers in a point-slope form, we would do the opposite of the negative number, which is to make it a positive in point-slope form.

x1 represents the x coordinate, which is 6 in this situation.
