Answer:

A) P(t)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}

B) 89.157 million tons.

C) In year 2017.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that world poultry production was 77.2 million tons in the year 2004 and increasing at a continuous rate of 1.6% per year.

A). We know that a continuous growth function is in form y=a\cdot e^{kx}, where,

a = Initial value,

k = Growth rate in decimal form.

1.6\%=\frac{1.6}{100}=0.016

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

P(t)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}

Therefore, our required function would be P(t)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}, where, P represents world poultry production, in million tons, as a function of the number of years, t, since 2004.

B) To find the world poultry production in the year 2013, we will substitute t=2013-2004=9 in above formula as:

P(9)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016(9)}

P(9)=77.2\cdot e^{0.144}

P(9)=77.2\cdot 1.1548841085249135

P(9)=89.1570531781\approx 89.157

Therefore, the world poultry production in the year 2013 would be 89.157 million tons.

C) To find the number of years it will take for world poultry production to be over 95 million tons, we will equate our function with 95 as:

95=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}

Divide both sides by 77.2:

1.2305699481865285=e^{0.016t}

Take natural log of both sides:

\text{ln}(1.2305699481865285)=\text{ln}(e^{0.016t})

\text{ln}(1.2305699481865285)=0.016t\text{ln}(e)

0.20747743456981035=0.016t*1

Divide both sides by 0.016:

t=12.9673396606

t\approx 13

Therefore, 13 years after in 2017 world poultry production goes over 95 million tons.

How to isolate scalars from a matrix
I am Lyosha [343]
The technique of matrix isolation involves condensing the substance to be studied with a large excess of inert gas (usually argon or nitrogen) at low temperature to form a rigid solid (the matrix). The early development of matrix isolation spectroscopy was directed primarily to the study of unstable molecules and free radicals. The ability to stabilise reactive species by trapping them in a rigid cage, thus inhibiting intermolecular interaction, is an important feature of matrix isolation. The low temperatures (typically 4-20K) also prevent the occurrence of any process with an activation energy of more than a few kJ mol-1. Apart from the stabilisation of reactive species, matrix isolation affords a number of advantages over more conventional spectroscopic techniques. The isolation of monomelic solute molecules in an inert environment reduces intermolecular interactions, resulting in a sharpening of the solute absorption compared with other condensed phases. The effect is, of course, particularly dramatic for substances that engage in hydrogen bonding. Although the technique was developed to inhibit intermolecular interactions, it has also proved of great value in studying these interactions in molecular complexes formed in matrices at higher concentrations than those required for true isolation.

The table below represents a function. Which of the following equations could be its function rule?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

y=2x-2 is the required equation.

Therefore, the second option is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation of a linear function is given by

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Taking two points (0, -2) and (1, 0) from the table to determine the slope using the formula

\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:-2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(1,\:0\right)

m=\frac{0-\left(-2\right)}{1-0}

m=2

substituting the point (0, -2) and the slope m=2 in the slope-intercept form to determine the y-intercept i.e. 'b'.

y=mx+b

-2 = 2(0)+b

-2=0+b

b=-2

Now, substituting the values of m=2 and b=-2 in the slope-intercept form to determine the equation of a linear function

y=mx+b

y=2x+(-2)

y=2x-2

Thus, y=2x-2 is the required equation.

Therefore, the second option is true.

(4k^4 + 2 - 3k) + (5k^4 + k - 8)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Hello!

You can only add values that have the same terms

4k^4 + 5k^4 = 9k^4

-3k + k = -2k

-8 + 2 = -6

The answer is 9k^4 - 2k - 6

Hope this helps!
