The cost, in dollars, to produce 1 watt of solar energy is a function of the number of years

Mathematics

Answer:

In the figure attached, the graph of the function is shown.

1. f(9) ≈ 6 means that at t = 9 (year 1977 + 9 = 1986) the cost to produce 1 watt of solar energy was $6

2. f(4) ≈ 25, which means at year 1981 (=1977 + 4) the cost was $25 per watt  

f(3.5) ≈ 28, which means at half of year 1980 (=1977 + 3.5) the cost was $28 per watt  

3. When f(t) = 45, t is equal to 2, which means that the year wass 1979 (= 1977 + 2)

4. From the graph we can compute the following table:

x  |  y

0  |  80

1   |  60

The general exponential decay formula is:

f(x) = a*b^x

where <em>a</em> is the initial value and <em>b</em> si the decay factor. Replacing with data from the table:

f(0) = a*b^0

80  = a

f(1) = a*b^1

60/80 = b

0.75 = b

What is the circumference of the circle if r = 3,5 feet?
Nady [450]

Answer:

21.98

Step-by-step explanation:

C=2πr C=2d are the formulas of circumference so that would mean the diameter of the circle is 7 since 2 times the radius is the diameter. We then multiply the diameter 7 by PI to get 21.98

Which choice is the solution for this system ? 2x − 5y = 14 x + 3 2 y = 5
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The required solution is (5.75,-0.5). It can be written as (\frac{11}{4},-\frac{1}{2}).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

2x-5y=14                       .... (1)

x+\frac{3}{2}y=5            .... (2)

Multiply the equation (2) by 2.

2x+3y=10                     .... (3)

Subtract equation (1) from equation (3).

2x+3y-(2x-5y)=10-14

2x+3y-2x+5y=-4

8y=-4

y=-\frac{1}{2}=-0.5

Put this value in equation (1).

2x-5(-0.5)=14

2x+2.5=14

2x=11.5

x=5.75

Therefore the required solution is (5.75,-0.5). It can be written as (\frac{11}{4},-\frac{1}{2}).

Answer:

The height of the cone-shaped cup is 6 inches and the diameter at the top is 3 inches. ... To find the volume of the cone, you use a formula similar to that of a pyramid, ... \begin{align*}V & = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h \\ V & = \frac{1}{3} (3.14)(5^2 )(7) ... The answer is the volume of the cone is 183.16 cubic inches.
