Answer:

a₁ = 1; r = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ represents the first term. It is 1 in this case.

r represents the common ratio between terms. In this case it's 3 / 1 = 3.

Answer:

a1 = 1

r = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = first term = 1

r = common ratio = 2nd term/1st term

  = 3/1

r = 3

Suppose a tank contains 400 gallons of salt water. If pure water flows into the tank at the rate of 7 gallons per minute and the
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a differential equation problem most easily solved with an exponential decay equation of the form

y=Ce^{kt}. We know that the initial amount of salt in the tank is 28 pounds, so

C = 28. Now we just need to find k.

The concentration of salt changes as the pure water flows in and the salt water flows out. So the change in concentration, where y is the concentration of salt in the tank, is \frac{dy}{dt}. Thus, the change in the concentration of salt is found in

\frac{dy}{dt}= inflow of salt - outflow of salt

Pure water, what is flowing into the tank, has no salt in it at all; and since we don't know how much salt is leaving (our unknown, basically), the outflow at 3 gal/min is 3 times the amount of salt leaving out of the 400 gallons of salt water at time t:

3(\frac{y}{400})

Therefore,

\frac{dy}{dt}=0-3(\frac{y}{400}) or just

\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{3y}{400} and in terms of time,

-\frac{3t}{400}

Thus, our equation is

y=28e^{-\frac{3t}{400} and filling in 16 for the number of minutes in t:

y = 24.834 pounds of salt

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A real interest rate is an interest rate that has been adjusted to remove the effects of inflation to reflect the real cost of funds to the borrower and the real yield to the lender or to an investor. A nominal interest rate refers to the interest rate before taking inflation into account.

I need help with ANLGES!!!!
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

32, consecutive interior angles are supplementary.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the two angles add up to 180, because consecutive interior angles are supplementary. So let's set up an equation equal to 180.

2x + 3x + 20 = 180

Now let's add like terms.

5x + 20 = 180

Now let's subtract 20 from both sides.

5x = 160

Now let's divide both sides by 5.

x = 32
