$210
because if it rose 30%, it's now 130% of what is used to be
or (what it used to be) ×1.3
so do the reverse and divide the new cost by 1.3
so 273÷1.3 which is 210

Examine the data below for a stalk of corn. Logarithmic regression Use logarithmic regression to find an equation of the form y

masya89 [10]

The value of <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> for the data values of stalk of corn using the logarithmic regression is -76.2038 and 37.6735 respectively.

<h3>What is logarithmic regression?</h3>

Logarithmic regression is a type of regression which is used to model the statement in which the growth or decay initially at rapid rate, and then slow down with respect to time.

The data of the table for the day and height of the stalk of corn is listed below.

Day (<em>x</em>) 9 12 22 40

Height (<em>y</em>) in 5 17 45 60

Mean of x values,

$m_x=\dfrac{9+12+22+40}{4}\\m_x=17.5581$

Mean of y values,

$m_y=\dfrac{5+17+45+60}{4}\\m_y=31.75$

For the above table, the value of correlation coefficient is 0.99133. For these values, the logarithmic regression can be given as,

$y = -76.2038+37.6735\ln(x)$

Compare it with the following logarithmic regression equation, we get

$y = a+b\ln(x)$

$a=-76.2038\\b=37.6735$

Hence, the value of <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> for the data values of stalk of corn using the logarithmic regression is -76.2038 and 37.6735 respectively.

How many distinct triangles can be drawn by using three of the seven dots below? (Two triangles are considered different if they

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

35triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total distinct points = 7

If we are to form triangles using the dots,

Total points in a triangle = 3

Using the combination rule;

number of triangles formed = 7C3

7C3 = 7!/(7-3)!3!

7C3 = 7!/4!3!

7C3 = 7*6*5*4!/4!3!

7C3 = 7*6*5/6

7C3 = 7*5

7C3 = 35

Hence the amount of triangles that can be formed is 35triangles

For each of the following vector fields F , decide whether it is conservative or not by computing curl F . Type in a potential f

Phantasy [73]

The key idea is that, if a vector field is conservative, then it has curl 0. Equivalently, if the curl is not 0, then the field is not conservative. But if we find that the curl is 0, that on its own doesn't mean the field is conservative.

1.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\dfrac{\partial(5x+10y)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-6x+5y)}{\partial y}=5-5=0$

We want to find $f$ such that $\nabla f=\vec F$ . This means

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=-6x+5y\implies f(x,y)=-3x^2+5xy+g(y)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=5x+10y=5x+\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}=10y\implies g(y)=5y^2+C$

$\implies\boxed{f(x,y)=-3x^2+5xy+5y^2+C}$

so $\vec F$ is conservative.

2.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\left(\dfrac{\partial(-2y)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(1)}{\partial y}\right)\vec\imath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(-3x)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(1)}{\partial z}\right)\vec\jmath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(-2y)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-3x)}{\partial y}\right)\vec k=\vec0$

Then

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=-3x\implies f(x,y,z)=-\dfrac32x^2+g(y,z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=-2y=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}\implies g(y,z)=-y^2+h(y)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=1=\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}\implies h(z)=z+C$

$\implies\boxed{f(x,y,z)=-\dfrac32x^2-y^2+z+C}$

so $\vec F$ is conservative.

3.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\dfrac{\partial(10y-3x\cos y)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-\sin y)}{\partial y}=-3\cos y+\cos y=-2\cos y\neq0$

so $\vec F$ is not conservative.

4.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\left(\dfrac{\partial(5y^2)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(5z^2)}{\partial y}\right)\vec\imath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(-3x^2)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(5z^2)}{\partial x}\right)\vec\jmath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(5y^2)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-3x^2)}{\partial y}\right)\vec k=\vec0$

Then

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=-3x^2\implies f(x,y,z)=-x^3+g(y,z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=5y^2=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}\implies g(y,z)=\dfrac53y^3+h(z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=5z^2=\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}\implies h(z)=\dfrac53z^3+C$

$\implies\boxed{f(x,y,z)=-x^3+\dfrac53y^3+\dfrac53z^3+C}$

so $\vec F$ is conservative.
