Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the second term and subtract the first term

40-48 = -8

Take the third term and subtract the second term

32-40 = -8

The common difference is -8

We have the 4th term

24

The fifth term is

24-8 = 16

The sixth term is 16-8 = 8

The seventh term is 8-8 =0

NASA launches a rocket at t=0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h(t)=−4.9t2+121t
Alenkasestr [34]

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by

h(t)=-4.9t^2+121t+283

The sea level is represented by h = 0, therefore, to find the corresponding time when h splashes into the ocean we have to solve for t the following equation:

h(t)=0\implies-4.9t^2+121t+283=0

Using the quadratic formula, the solution for our problem is

\begin{gathered} t=\frac{-(121)\pm\sqrt{(121)^2-4(-4.9)(283)}}{2(-4.9)} \\ =\frac{121\pm142.083778...}{9.8} \\ =\frac{121+142.083778...}{9.8} \\ =26.8452834694... \end{gathered}

The rocket splashes after 26.845 seconds.

The maximum of this function happens at the root of the derivative. Differentiating our function, we have

h^{\prime}(t)=-9.8t+121

The root is

-9.8t+121=0\implies t=\frac{121}{9.8}=12.347

Then, the maximum height is

h(12.347)=1029.99

1029.99 meters above sea level.

The number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to an exponential growth model, with a growth rate of 3.5% pe
uysha [10]
Generic exponential growth model: y = Ao[1+r]^t

In this case: r = 3.5% = 0.035

y = 2Ao .....[the double of the initial value]

Then: 2Ao =Ao (1 + 0.035)^t

(1.035)^t =2

Take logarithm to both sides

t ln(1.035) = ln(2)

t = ln(2) / ln(1.035) = 0.693 / 0.0344 = 20.15

Answer: 20.15 hours.

Annabel has 25 ounces of a 20% boric acid solution which she wishes to dilute to a 10% solution. How much water does she have to
yanalaym [24]

Answer: 25 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be 0.2∙25+0∙x=0.1(25+x) because 20% of boric acid would be = to 0.2. water doesn't have any acid in it so it would be 0. since annabel wants a 10% solution that would mean that the total about would be 0.1 of boric acid. The ounces she needs for the 0.2 boric acid solution is 25 while the other is unknown so that would be x. when you put them together it would be 25+x. then you just multiply the ounces and the acid together and you get 0.2∙25+0∙x=0.1(25+x). when you solve it it would be x=25.
