Answer:

0.7 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that each (1) minute a light use 9.4 watts.

So If the light bulb used a total of 6.58 watts, the minutes was on it is:

$\frac{The total watts used}{The watts used each minute}$

= $\frac{6.58}{9.4}$

= 0.7 minute

So the the minutes was on it is 0.7

Hope it will find you well!

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6)?

olganol [36]

Answer:

The equation of the line is.

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The given points are (0, -4) and (-4, 6)

The equation of the line passing through the points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is.

$\frac{x-x_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{y-y_{1}}{y_{2}-y_{1}}$

Thus, the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6) is

$\frac{x-0}{(-4)-0}=\frac{y-(-4)}{6-(-4)}$

$\frac{x}{-4}=\frac{y+4}{6+4}$

$-\frac{x}{4}=\frac{y+4}{10}$

$-\frac{10x}{4}=y+4$

$-10x=4(y+4)$

$-10x=4y+16$

$4y=-10x-16$

The above equation is divided by 2 both sides.

$2y=-5x-8$

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6) is $y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Jane wishes to bake an apple pie for dessert. The baking instructions say that she should bake the pie in an oven at a constant

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Therefore $k= \frac{ln2 }{18}$ , A=184

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is

$T(t)=230 -e^{-kt}$

where T(t) is the temperature in °C and t is time in minute and A and k are constants.

She noticed that after 18 minutes the temperature of the pie is 138°C

Putting T(t) =138°C and t= 18 minutes

$138=230 -Ae^{-k\times 18}$

$\Rightarrow -Ae^{-18k}=138-230$

$\Rightarrow Ae^{-18k}=92$ .....(1)

Again after 36 minutes it is 184°C

Putting T(t) =184°C and t= 36 minutes

$184=230-Ae^{-k\times 36}$

$\Rightarrow Ae^{-36k}=230-184$

$\Rightarrow Ae^{-36k}=46$ .......(2)

Dividing (2) by (1)

$\frac{Ae^{-36k}}{Ae^{-18k}}=\frac{46}{92}$

$\Rightarrow e^{-18k}=\frac{46}{92}$

Taking ln both sides

$ln e^{-18k}=ln\frac{46}{92}$

$\Rightarrow -18k =ln (\frac12)$

$\Rightarrow -18k= ln1-ln2$

$\Rightarrow k= \frac{ln2 }{18}$

Putting the value k in equation (1)

$Ae^{-18\frac{ln2}{18}}=92$

$\Rightarrow A e^{ln2^{-1}}=92$

$\Rightarrow A.2^{-1}=92$

$\Rightarrow \frac{A}{2}=92$

$\Rightarrow A= 92 \times 2$

⇒A= 184.

Therefore $k= \frac{ln2 }{18}$ , A=184

If speed varies inversely as the time it takes to drive and Kris takes 5 hours driving at 55 mph, what speed will Martin need to

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

<em>55mph . None of the options are correct </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the speed varies inversely as the time it takes to drive, then v ∝ 1/t. where;

v is the speed

t is the time taken

Hence;

v = k/t with k being the constant of proportionality.

Since it takes Kris 5 hours when driving at 55 mph, we will substitute v = 55mph and t = 5 hours. into the equation above to get the value of k as shown:

55 = k/5

Cross multiply

k = 55*5

k = 275

Hence, to calculate the speed it will Martin to drive for 5 hours, we will substitute k = 275 and t = 5 into the original equation v = k/t as shownl

v = 275/5

v = 55 mph

<em>Hence, we can conclude that Martin will also need to drive at a speed of 55mph if he wants to take 5hours.</em>
