Answer:

  • Question 1: 0.081 min⁻¹
  • Question 2: 168ºF

Explanation:

The missing equation is:

             T=T_a+(T_0-T_a)e^{-kt}

You are given:

  • Ta = the temperature surrounding the object = 73ºF
  • T₀ = the initial temperature of the object = 204ºF
  • t = 2.5 min
  • T after 2.5 min = 180ºF

Question 1: Find the the value of k.

Substitute the data into the equation and solve for k:

          180\º=73\º+(204\º-73\º)e^{-k\cdot 2.5min}\\ \\ 107\º=131\ºe^{-k\cdot 2.5min}\\\\-k\cdot 2.5min=\ln (107/131)\\\\k=0.081min^{-1}

Question 2: Find the Fahrenheit temperature of the cup of water, to the nearest degree, after 4 minutes.

Subsititute into the formula and compute:

            T=73\ºF+(204\ºF-73\ºF)e^{-0.081min^{-1}\times 4min}\\ \\ T=73\ºF+(131\ºF)(0.72325024)\\\\T=168\ºF

A circular sector has a central angle of π6 radians and a radius of 9 ft.
ohaa [14]

Answer:

\approx \: 21.2 \:  {ft}^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

central \:  \angle   =  \frac{\pi ^{c} }{6}  = 30 \degree \\  \\ area \: of \: the \: sector =  \frac{30 \degree}{360 \degree}  \times \pi {(9)}^{2}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1}{12}  \times 3.14 \times  81 \\  \\  =   \frac{1}{12}  \times 254.34 \\  \\  = 21.195 \:  {ft}^{2}  \\  \\  \approx \: 21.2 \:  {ft}^{2}
