First, let us break down 28 hours 36 minutes into minutes.

Number of minutes taken to grade 220 essays = (28 x 60) + 36 = 1680 + 36 = 1716 minutes

Now, we can find the average time taken to grade an essay by dividing the time taken to grade 220 essays by 220.

Average amount of time taken to grade an essay = $\frac{1716}{220}$ = 7.8 minutes, or 7 minutes and 48 seconds

Answer:

$\frac{\sqrt{17} }{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean identity

sin²x + cos²x = 1, then

sinx = $\sqrt{1-cos^2x}$

Note that ( $\frac{4\sqrt{2} }{7}$ )² = $\frac{32}{49}$

sinΘ = $\sqrt{1-(32/49)}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{17}{49} }$ = $\frac{\sqrt{17} }{7}$

Consider the differential equationy′′+3y′−10y=0.(a) Find the general solution to this differential equation.(b) Now solve the in

RSB [31]

Answer:

Y= 2e^(5t)

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking Laplace of the given differential equation:

s^2+3s-10=0

s^2+5s-2s-10=0

s(s+5)-2(s+5) =0

(s-2) (s+5) =0

s=2, s=-5

Hence, the general solution will be:

Y=Ae^(-2t)+ Be^(5t)………………………………(D)

Put t = 0 in equation (D)

Y (0) =A+B

2 =A+B……………………………………… (i)

Now take derivative of (D) with respect to "t", we get:

Y=-2Ae^(-2t)+5Be^(5t) ....................... (E)

Put t = 0 in equation (E) we get:

Y’ (0) = -2A+5B

10 = -2A+5B ……………………………………(ii)

2(i) + (ii) =>

2A+2B=4 .....................(iii)

-2A+5B=10 .................(iv)

Solving (iii) and (iv)

7B=14

B=2

Now put B=2 in (i)

A=2-2

A=0

By putting the values of A and B in equation (D)

Y= 2e^(5t)
