Mass of elephant/mass of ant = 8x10^6/4x10^-3 = 2x10^9. Therefore, mass of elephant = 2x10^9 times mass of ant.

James was trying to sleep one night but there was too much noise around him. His clock ticked every
g100num [7]

Answer:

<em>It will occur zero times between midnight and one o'clock.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Least Common Multiple (LCM)</u>

Three events keep James from sleeping: his clock ticking every 20 seconds, a tap dripping every 15 seconds, and his dog snoring every 27 seconds.

All three events happened together at midnight. They will happen together again the first time the numbers 20, 15, and 27 have a common multiple. This is the LCM.

List the prime factors of each number:

20: 2,2,5

15: 3,5

27: 3,3,3

Now multiply all the factors the maximum number of times they appear:

LCM=2*2*3*3*3*5=540

(a) All the events will happen together again after 540 minutes.

(b) Since 540 minutes = 9 hours, this event won't happen again until 9 am. Thus, it will occur zero times between midnight and one o'clock.

4&gt; Solve by using Laplace transform: y'+5y'+4y=0; y(0)=3 y'(o)=o
harina [27]

Answer:

y=3e^{-4t}

Step-by-step explanation:

y''+5y'+4y=0

Applying the Laplace transform:

\mathcal{L}[y'']+5\mathcal{L}[y']+4\mathcal{L}[y']=0

With the formulas:

\mathcal{L}[y'']=s^2\mathcal{L}[y]-y(0)s-y'(0)

\mathcal{L}[y']=s\mathcal{L}[y]-y(0)

\mathcal{L}[x]=L

s^2L-3s+5sL-3+4L=0

Solving for L

L(s^2+5s+4)=3s+3

L=\frac{3s+3}{s^2+5s+4}

L=\frac{3(s+1)}{(s+1)(s+4)}

L=\frac3{s+4}

Apply the inverse Laplace transform with this formula:

\mathcal{L}^{-1}[\frac1{s-a}]=e^{at}

y=3\mathcal{L}^{-1}[\frac1{s+4}]=3e^{-4t}

How to do this and find the max or min points
Veronika [31]
I see your last line is : c(x) = 0.9(x^2-10)^2 + 101.1

Let y = x^2, then c(y) = 0.9(y-10)^2 + 101.1

Apparently, c(y) is a parabola, min is 101.1 when y = 10, max is infinity

So let x^2 = 10 -> x = sqrt(10) or -sqrt(10), min is 101.1, max is infinity
