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.

Answer: The correct answer is Choice C.

Step-by-step explanation: In order to solve this problem you need to look at the equation’s parts.

The first part is multiplying 5 by the contents of the parenthesis. So, 5(2x-2) equals 10x - 10. Now, but the equation together and simplify it:

10x - 10 + 10x =

20x - 10

Mr. Aba builds a circular patio with a diameter of 12 feet. He covers the patio with paving stones. The cost of the paving stone
Anettt [7]

Answer:

395.85

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter is 12, then the radius must be 6. Following the formula of pi: 2 * pi * radius, our result is 37.7. 37.7 * 10.50 is 395.85

I really hope this helps. My memory of circles and pi isn't the best.

1.  n^2 -8n +16 = 25

Subtract 25 from both sides

n^2 - 8n + 16 - 25 = 0

Simplify

n^2 - 8n - 9 =0

Factor

(n-9)(n+1) = 0

Solve for n

n-9 = 0, n = 9

n+1 = 0, n = -1

Solution: 9,-1


2. C = b^2/25

Multiply both sides by 25:

25c = b^2

Take square root of both sides

b = +/-√25c

Simplify:

b = 5√C, -5√C


3. d = 16t^2 +12t

subtract d from both side:

16t^2 + 12t -d =0

Use quadratic formula to solve:

t = (3 +/-√(9-4d))/8


4. 5w^2 +10w =40

Subtract 40 from both side:

5w^2 + 10w -40 = 0

Factor:

5(w-2)(w+4)=0

Divide both sides by 5:

(w-2)(w+4)=0

Solve for w:

w-2 = 0, w = 2

w+4=0, w = -4

Solution: 2,-4
