A piece of metal is heated to 428°C before it is left to cool. The temperature of the metal falls at a rate of 23°C per minute f

or the first 3 minutes, at a rate of 15°C per minute for the next 15 minutes and then at a rate of 8°C per minute until it reaches room temperature of 25°C. What will be the temperature of the metal after 9 minutes, and what will be the time needed for the metal to reach a temperature of 25°C ?

Answer:

1) Temperature of the metal after 9 minutes =  269°C

2) Required\ temperature = 31\ min\ 37.5\ sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Final temperature of the metal = 428°C

Temperature falls per minute for 3 minute  = 23°C

Temperature falls per minute for next 15 minute  = 15°C

Temperature falls per minute until room temperature  = 8°C

We need to find the temperature after 9 minutes and what will be the time needed for the metal to reach a temperature of 25°C.

Solution:

First part:

As per given statement, the temperature of the metal falls at a rate of 23°C per minute for the first 3 minutes, so temperature falls in 3 minutes.

Temperature falls per minute  = 23°C

Therefore,

Temperature\ falls\ for\ 3\ minute = 23\times 3

Temperature falls for 3 minute = 69°C

After that temperature falls 15°C per minute for next 15 minute, so it is falls in  

6 minutes.

Temperature falls per minute after 3 minutes  = 15°C

Therefore,

Temperature\ falls\ for\ 6\ minutes\ after\ 3\ minutes = 15\times 6

Temperature falls for 6 minutes after 3 minutes = 90°C

So temperature falls in 9 minutes = 90 + 69 = 159°C

So the temperature of the metal after 9 minutes = 428 - 159 = 269°C

Second part:

Temperature falls 23°C per minute for 3 minutes = 69°C

Temperature falls 15°C per minute for 15 minute = 225°C

So, leaving temperature after 18 minutes = Top temp - temp falls in 18 minutes.

Leaving temperature after 18 minutes = 428 - (69 + 225)

Leaving temperature after 18 minutes = 428 - (69 + 225)

Leaving temperature after 18 minutes = 134°C

Temperature falls 8°C per minute until it reaches room temperature of 25°C = 134 - 25 = 109°C

So the rate of the falling temperature = \frac{109}{8}= 13\frac{5}{8}=13\ min\ 37.5\ sec

Required\ temperature = 31\ min\ 37.5\ sec

Therefore, the required temperature of the metal to reach 25°C is equal to 31 min 37.5 sec.

HELP PLEASE!!! <br>the question and answer are in the image attached​

Answer:

g(x)=\sqrt[3]{x-3}+4

Step-by-step explanation:

The function g(x) is a shifted version of the function f(x); f(x) is shifted by 3 along x-axis and by 4 along y-axis.

Another way of thinking about this is that the function g(x) contains points (3, 4); therefore,

g(x)=\sqrt[3]{x-3}+4

which goes through the point (3, 4).

Part A)

His sample only involves days during the summer (if Devin is in the northern hemisphere), which would mean that the high temperatures he'll record are likely to be higher than the average. Therefore, the sample mean he computes does not represent the average high temperature for the whole year.

----------------------------------------

Part B)

To correct his mistake, he needs to sample every day of the year. Or he could sample a few days of each month (say the first ten days of each month). That way the entire year is better represented. The other seasons of spring, fall and winter are included now.
