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
1 answer:
Answer:
1) Temperature of the metal after 9 minutes = 269°C
2)
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 = 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 = 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 =
Therefore, the required temperature of the metal to reach 25°C is equal to 31 min 37.5 sec.

We can answer the first part of the question not taking intersecting function into account. The domain of is all the numbers, x∈(-∞, +∞) and the range is y∈(-∞, 36]. We can observe these results with the help of a graph, as well. Since we are talking about the rainbow, the values above the ground level will make sense. In this case, we will take into account the range as it changes between 0 and 36, included and the domain between -6 and 6. Here (0;36) is the y-intercept and (-6;0) and (6;0) are the x-intercepts of the parabola.
Since in our problem, the linear function that intersects parabola is not given, we have to provide it by ourselves according to the conditions of the problem. It could be any line intersecting parabola in two points. One important point is that the y-intercept has to be no more than 36. Considering these conditions, we can set our linear function to be . We can observe the points that we included in the table (they have been given with orange dots in the graph and the table is attached below). We can see that the values of the function (values of y) are positive. Indeed, we are discussing the part of the rainbow above the ground level.
The system of equations with linear and quadratic functions has got two solutions and we can observe that result from the graph. The solutions are (-5.823; 2.088) and (5.323; 7.662). The solutions are the intersection points.
