Answer:

69.92°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial temperature ( i.e at time, t = 0) = 40°F

Temperature of the room = 70°F

Temperature after 10 minutes ( i.e at time t = 10 ) = 48°F

Now, from Newton's law of cooling

T'(t) = k(A - T(t))

T(t) temperature after time t

T'(t) = \frac{\textup{dT}}{\textup{dt}}

here, A is the room temperature

thus,

\frac{\textup{dT}}{\textup{dt}}  = k(70 - T)

or

\frac{\textup{dT}}{\textup{70-T}} = kdt

on solving the differential equation, we get

T = 70-C^{-kt} ............(1)

Now from the boundary conditions,

 i.e at time, t = 0; T = 40°F

we get,

40 = 70-C^{-k\times0}

or

C = 30

and,

at time, t = 10; T = 48°F

thus,

48 = 70-30^{-k\times10}

or

k = \frac{\textup{-1}}{\textup{10}}ln\frac{11}{15}

or

k = 0.03

Therefore,

for t = 25

from 1 we have

T = 70-30^{-0.03\times25}

or

T = 70 - 0.0780

or

T = 69.92°F

two pumps of different sizes, working together, can empty a fuel tank in 3 hours. the larger pump can empty the tank in 4 hours
bonufazy [111]
Suppose the larger pump alone can empty the tank in L hours, and the smaller pump can finish the job in S hours, then each hour the large pump empties 1/L portion of the tank, and the small pump empties 1/S per hour
Working together for three hours, they empty the whole tank, which is 100% of it, so 3/L+3/S=100%=1
Larger pump can empty the tank in 4 hours less than the smaller one, so L=S-4
replace L: 3/(S-4)+3/S=1
Make the denominator the same to solve for:
3S/[S(S-4)] +3(S-4)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)=[S(S-4)]
S^2-10s+12=0
use the quadratic formula to solve for S
S is about 8.6
The answer is not whole hour.

What is the median of the following salary list $32,019, $21,971, $27,512, $43,702, $38,860, $25,997
mylen [45]

Answer:

$29765.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the middlemost value (or the average of the 2 middlemost value if there are even number of values) in an ascending order.

First, arrange the salary list in an ascending order.

$21,971 , $25,997 , $27,512 , $32,019 , $38,860 , $43,702

As we can see here, there are even number of values (6), so the median will be the average of the 2 middlemost value, which will be:

Median = \frac{27512 + 32019}{2}

= \frac{59531}{2}

= $29765.50

The astronomical unit (AU) is the mean distance from the sun to the earth.
Mrac [35]
By definition, we have to
 1 AU = 1.5 * 10 ^ 8Km
 a comet is 2.3 AU from the earth, which means that we must transform this unit to kilometers.
 2.3 AU = (2.3) * (1.5 * 10 ^ 8) = 3.45 * 10 ^ 8km

The frequency table shows the ages of the actors
Oksanka [162]

The percentage of youth that are category 10 to 12 is the quotient of  their frequency to the total frequency

55% of the actors are 10 to 12 years old

<h3>How to determine the percentage?</h3>

From the complete question, we have the following parameters

  • Age 10 - 12 = 22 youths
  • Total youth = 40

The percentage of youth in the age category 10 - 12 is then calculated as:

Percentage = Frequency of age category 10 - 12/Total frequency

This gives

Percentage = 22/40

Evaluate the quotient

Percentage = 55%

Hence, 55% of the actors are 10 to 12 years old
