Answer:

  • k = 0.032
  • P0 = 131.836

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want to use the points (t, P) = (4, 150) and (6, 160) to find the parameters P0 and k in the equation ...

  P(t)=P_0\cdot e^{kt}

We know from the given points that we can write the equation as ...

  P(t)=150\left(\dfrac{160}{150}\right)^{(t-4)/(6-4)}=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{\frac{t}{2}-2}\\\\=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{-2}\times\left(\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}\right)^t

Comparing this to the desired form, we see that ...

  P_0=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{-2}\approx 131.836\\\\e^{k}=\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{1/2}\rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2}(\ln{16}-\ln{15})\approx 0.0322693

So, the approximate equation for P is ...

  P(t)=131.836\cdote^{0.032t}

And the parameters of interest are ...

  • k = 0.032
  • P0 = 131.836

Given YZ tangent to J at point Y, and the mWYZ =104 what is the mWXY
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

152

Step-by-step explanation:

m \angle {WYZ}=104 is given, and the angle next to it is a supplement. (Unfortunately, that angle can't be named in the usual way because there is no labeled point "southeast" of point Y.)

That angle has measure 180 - 104 = 76.

Now arc WXY's measure is <u>twice</u> the measure of this angle, so mWXY = 2(76) = 152.
