A calf that weighs 60 pounds at birth gains weight at the rate dw/dt = k(1200 - w)

7 0
Dw/dt = k(1200 - w)
dw/(1200 - w) = kdt
-ln(1200 - w) = kt + c

When t = 0, w = 60
-ln(1200 - 60) = c
c = -ln(1140)

a.) For k = 0.8: -ln(1200 - w) = 0.8t - ln(1140)
t =  [ln(1140) - ln(1200 - w)]/0.8

For k = 0.9:
t = [ln(1140) - ln(1200 - w)]/0.9

For k = 1:
t = [ln(1140) - ln(1200 - w)]
 
b.) For k = 0.8
t = [ln(1140) - ln(1200 - 800)]/0.8 = [ln(1140) - ln(400)]/0.8 = 1.3 years

For k = 0.9
t = [ln(1140) - ln(400)]/0.9 = 1.16 years

For k = 1
t = [ln(1140) - ln(400)] = 1.05 years

c.) For maximum weight,
dw/dt = 0
k(1200 - w) = 0
1200 - w = 0
w = 1200

Therefore, the maximum weight for each of the model is 1200 pounds.

The men Montag meets at the end of the story are "living libraries." How are they preserving the knowledge that their civilizati
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

These living libraries preserve knowledge by studying memory books.

Explanation:

 Your question refers to the book Fahrenheit 541 by Ray Bradbury.

These men who are living libraries preserve the knowledge they believe is necessary for the future. It is important that they do this because if they don't, that knowledge will die forever.

They plan to pass the books on to their children, knowing that much of that information will be lost but still very useful.

Each man had a book that he wanted to remember and it was thus that over the years they were setting up an organization.

Let's look at the following quote:

<em>"And when the war's over, some day, some year, the books can be written again, the people will be called in, one by one, to recite what they know and we'll set it up in type until another Dark Age, when we might have to do the whole thing over again. "</em>

Write a frictional story with the ending "neither of them ever went there again
postnew [5]

Answer:

Once upon a time, there were three girls, Gemini, Herriette, and Tabitha. They had been feeling rather bored with their lives, recently. All of their parents were always busy. Gemini's mother and father both worked full time, Herriette's moms were too busy with her younger sibling, who, at the time, was a 1 year old. He needed constant supervision, and Tabitha's father didn't want to spend time with her. The only enjoyable part of the day was when the three were together. They had planned to break into an abandoned cabin in the woods, because they had heard many rumors about it being haunted by a vengeful female spirit, who would curse any unfortunate person who laid eyes upon her. She was said to had lost her baby in a car accident, when a drunk driver had a head-on collision into her car. That night, she also lost her life. She lived in that very same cabin before the incident took place. The girls thought that they would make more friends at school if they captured her and brought her to show and tell, for everyone was talking about the ghost, but nobody dared to break into the cabin, that is, except for the brave girls, Gemminui, Herriette and Tabitha. At the end of the school day, they had met up in the woods and created a plan to catch her, which they would soon pursue the next day. They could barely sleep that night, thinking about what this ghost may have in store for them. That day, Tabitha and Herriette where falling asleep in class. The anticipation and shear excitement of what was to come after school had kept them up all night! Though, Gemini wasn't worried or excited. She didn't expect to see any ghost in the cabin. After school, the girls packed backpacks full of supplies, such as, flashlights, a net to catch the ghost with, and Tabitha's trusty lock-picking kit! Once they were able to successfully break into the cabin, they immediately smelled something putrid coming from the entrance of the cabin. It was completely trashed, too! The shelves were dusty, the wallpaper was peely and moldy, and there was a baby cradle sitting in the corner of the room, draped with an oddly stainless pink cloth. The girls began to explore the cabinet. There were strange and indecipherable symbols scratched into the wall, presumably by the ghost. Gemini was starting to have second thoughts about the cabin. The girls were startled to here a loud creaking noise coming from the corner of the cabin. Tabitha wearily approached the small cradle and peeked inside, lifting the silk cloth up with a shaky hand. As soon as she lifted it, She heard a baby wailing profusely. It was a ghost! The girls ran, and ran, and ran into the forest. Neither of them ever went there again.

Examine Emerson's appeals to pathos through highly emotional and evocative diction.
nalin [4]
Pathos came from the Greek word which means suffering. So this means it is a rhetorical device that appeals to the emotion of the audience and elicit feelings that are already inside of them. It could be through the use of metaphor or with the way it is delivered.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Before you start WASH YOUR HANDS. First gather any ingredients you will need . Make sure its the right amount of everything gather the measuring cups and everything. After you set out the ingredients pre-heat the oven to 350F.  Then you will add what you need to make the cookies . Make sure you add every thing one mistake can ruin the cookies. Next you would oil down your pan or foil or what ever your using . Oiling the pan will keep it from sticking on whatever you use . After that add the cookies how ever big or small you want them . Finally put the cookies in the oven to bake give it about 30 minutes at max I would say when their done enjoy .
