Answer:
A. 7,348
Step-by-step explanation:
P = le^kt
intitial population = 500
time = 4 hrs
end population = 3,000
So we have all these variables and we need to solve for what the end population will be if we change the time to 6 hours. First, we need to find the rate of the growth(k) so we can plug it back in. The given formula shows a exponencial growth formula. (A = Pe^rt) A is end amount, P is start amount, e is a constant that you can probably find on your graphing calculator, r is the rate, and t is time.
A = Pe^rt
3,000 = 500e^r4
now we can solve for r
divide both sides by 500
6 = e^r4
now because the variable is in the exponent, we have to use a log
ln(6) = 4r
we can plug the log into a calculator to get
1.79 = 4r
divide both sides by 4
r = .448
now lets plug it back in
A = 500e^(.448)(6 hrs)
A = 7351.12
This is closest to answer A. 7,348
The 3.1 °F/min rate of change of the temperature and 15 minutes change duration gives the change in temperature as 46.5 °F
<h3>How can the change in temperature be found from the rate of change?</h3>The rate at which the temperature changed = 3.1 °F/min
The duration of the change in temperature = 15 minutes
The relationship between the change in temperature, the rate of change in temperature and the time can be presented as follows;
Where;
∆T = The required change in temperature
∆t = The duration of the change = 15 minutes
Which gives;
∆T = 3.1°F/min × 15 minutes = 46.5 °F
- The change in temperature, ∆T = 46.5 °F

Answer:
Area of rectangle PLUM = 75.00 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Since diagonal of rectangle divides the rectangle into two equal triangles,
Therefore, area of the rectangle PLUM = 2× area of triangle PLM
By the mean proportional theorem,
In ΔPLM,
AP² = AM × AL
6² = AM × 8
AM =
AM = 4.5 units
Area of PLM =
=
=
= 12.5 × 3
= 37.5 units²
Now area of rectangle PLUM = 2×37.5 = 75 units²
Therefore, area of the rectangle is 75.00 square units.
