Answer:

Scores = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve variation problems, you make mild assumptions and analogies

Let's score be represented with S

Let's Absences be represented with A.

Therefore

S varies inversely as A

S ~ 1/A

S = K/A

The K represents a contant notation so that we can easily figure the variation problem.

When Absences were 2

Scores were 12

S = K/A

12 = K / 2

Cross Multiply.

K = 24.

It means that, S = 24 / A.

For a student with 3 absences, the score would be:

S = 24 / A

S = 24 / 3

S = 8

Math is fun!

First, we have to convert our function (of x) into a function of y (we revolve the curve around the y-axis). So:

$y=100-x^2\\\\x^2=100-y\qquad\bold{(1)}\\\\\boxed{x=\sqrt{100-y}}\qquad\bold{(2)} \\\\\\0\leq x\leq10\\\\y=100-0^2=100\qquad\wedge\qquad y=100-10^2=100-100=0\\\\\boxed{0\leq y\leq100}$

And the derivative of x:

$x'=\left(\sqrt{100-y}\right)'=\Big((100-y)^\frac{1}{2}\Big)'=\dfrac{1}{2}(100-y)^{-\frac{1}{2}}\cdot(100-y)'=\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{100-y}}\cdot(-1)=\boxed{-\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{100-y}}}\qquad\bold{(3)}$

Now, we can calculate the area of the surface:

$A=2\pi\int\limits_0^{100}\sqrt{100-y}\sqrt{1+\left(-\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{100-y}}\right)^2}\,\,dy=\\\\\\= 2\pi\int\limits_0^{100}\sqrt{100-y}\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4(100-y)}}\,\,dy=(\star)$

We could calculate this integral (not very hard, but long), or use (1), (2) and (3) to get:

$(\star)=2\pi\int\limits_0^{100}1\cdot\sqrt{100-y}\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4(100-y)}}\,\,dy=\left|\begin{array}{c}1=\dfrac{-2\sqrt{100-y}}{-2\sqrt{100-y}}\end{array}\right|= \\\\\\= 2\pi\int\limits_0^{100}\dfrac{-2\sqrt{100-y}}{-2\sqrt{100-y}}\cdot\sqrt{100-y}\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4(100-y)}}\,\,dy=\\\\\\ 2\pi\int\limits_0^{100}-2\sqrt{100-y}\cdot\sqrt{100-y}\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4(100-y)}}\cdot\dfrac{dy}{-2\sqrt{100-y}}=\\\\\\$

$=2\pi\int\limits_0^{100}-2\big(100-y\big)\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4(100-y)}}\cdot\left(-\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{100-y}}\, dy\right)\stackrel{\bold{(1)}\bold{(2)}\bold{(3)}}{=}\\\\\\= \left|\begin{array}{c}x=\sqrt{100-y}\\\\x^2=100-y\\\\dx=-\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{100-y}}\, \,dy\\\\a=0\implies a'=\sqrt{100-0}=10\\\\b=100\implies b'=\sqrt{100-100}=0\end{array}\right|=\\\\\\= 2\pi\int\limits_{10}^0-2x^2\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4x^2}}\,\,dx=(\text{swap limits})=\\\\\\$

$=2\pi\int\limits_0^{10}2x^2\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4x^2}}\,\,dx= 4\pi\int\limits_0^{10}\sqrt{x^4}\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4x^2}}\,\,dx=\\\\\\= 4\pi\int\limits_0^{10}\sqrt{x^4+\dfrac{x^4}{4x^2}}\,\,dx= 4\pi\int\limits_0^{10}\sqrt{x^4+\dfrac{x^2}{4}}\,\,dx=\\\\\\= 4\pi\int\limits_0^{10}\sqrt{\dfrac{x^2}{4}\left(4x^2+1\right)}\,\,dx= 4\pi\int\limits_0^{10}\dfrac{x}{2}\sqrt{4x^2+1}\,\,dx=\\\\\\=\boxed{2\pi\int\limits_0^{10}x\sqrt{4x^2+1}\,dx}$

Calculate indefinite integral:

$\int x\sqrt{4x^2+1}\,dx=\int\sqrt{4x^2+1}\cdot x\,dx=\left|\begin{array}{c}t=4x^2+1\\\\dt=8x\,dx\\\\\dfrac{dt}{8}=x\,dx\end{array}\right|=\int\sqrt{t}\cdot\dfrac{dt}{8}=\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{8}\int t^\frac{1}{2}\,dt=\dfrac{1}{8}\cdot\dfrac{t^{\frac{1}{2}+1}}{\frac{1}{2}+1}=\dfrac{1}{8}\cdot\dfrac{t^\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}}=\dfrac{2}{8\cdot3}\cdot t^\frac{3}{2}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{12}\left(4x^2+1\right)^\frac{3}{2}}$

And the area:

$A=2\pi\int\limits_0^{10}x\sqrt{4x^2+1}\,dx=2\pi\cdot\dfrac{1}{12}\bigg[\left(4x^2+1\right)^\frac{3}{2}\bigg]_0^{10}=\\\\\\= \dfrac{\pi}{6}\left[\big(4\cdot10^2+1\big)^\frac{3}{2}-\big(4\cdot0^2+1\big)^\frac{3}{2}\right]=\dfrac{\pi}{6}\Big(\big401^\frac{3}{2}-1^\frac{3}{2}\Big)=\boxed{\dfrac{401^\frac{3}{2}-1}{6}\pi}$

A mixture of 17 %disinfectant solution is to be made from 10% and 20% disinfectant solution. How much of each solution should be

8090 [49]

Since 20 total gallons are needed, the amount of 10% solutions can be x and the amount of 20% solutions can be (20-x) since they add up to 20. In addition, the 17% solution has 20 gallons. Putting this into an equation, we get that 10% is 0.1 (by moving the decimal 2 spots to the left) , 0.2=20%, and 0.17=17%. With that information, we can determine that 10%*x+20%*(20-x)=20*0.17 due to that with 20 gallons of the 27% solution, we need a certain amount of solution. For every gallon, we add 0.17 of the solution, so we have 20*0.17. Similarly, we want that total amount to be represented by the amount of 20% + the amount of 10%.

0.1x+0.2(20-x)=0.1x+4-0.2x=-0.1x+4 using the distributive property
-0.1x+4=20*0.17=3.4. Subtract 4 from both sides to get -0.1x=-0.6, and multiply both sides by -10 (to separate x) to get x=6. Therefore, the amount of 10% solution is 6 gallons and the amount of 20% solution is 20-5=14 gallons

Maxine types 294 words in seven minutes how many words does Maxine type in 11 minutes

Inga [223]

First we find the unit rate which would be how many words in 1 minute...

294/7 = 294 ÷ = 42 wpm

Now we multiply by how many minutes to find the total...

42 wpm × 11 min = 462 words.
