Answer:

<h2>a) 0.5367feet</h2><h2>b) 0.5223feet</h2><h2>c) 0.7292feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rate at which an eucalyptus tree will grow modelled by the equation 0.5+6/(t+4)³ feet per year, where t is the time (in years).

The amount of growth can be gotten by integrating the given rate equation as shown;

\int\limits {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} }  } \, dt \\= \int\limits {0.5} \, dt + \int\limits\frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} }  } \, dx } \, \\= 0.5t +\int\limits {6u^{-3} } \, du \  where \ u = t+4 \ and\ du = dt\\= 0.5t + 6*\frac{u^{-2} }{-2} + C\\= 0.5t-3u^{-2} +C\\= 0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2} + C

a)  The number of feet that the tree will grow in the second year can be gotten by taking the limit of the integral from  t =1 to t = 2

\int\limits^2_1 {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} }  } \, dt = [0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2}]^2_1\\= [0.5(2)-3(2+4)^{-2}] - [0.5(1)-3(1+4)^{-2}]\\= [1-3(6)^{-2}] - [0.5-3(5)^{-2}]\\ = [1-\frac{1}{12}] - [0.5-\frac{3}{25} ]\\= \frac{11}{12}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{25}\\   = 0.9167 - 0.5 + 0.12\\= 0.5367feet

b)  The number of feet that the tree will grow in the third year can be gotten by taking the limit of the integral from  t =2 to t = 3

\int\limits^3_2 {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} }  } \, dt = [0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2}]^3_2\\= [0.5(3)-3(3+4)^{-2}] - [0.5(2)-3(2+4)^{-2}]\\= [1.5-3(7)^{-2}] - [1-3(6)^{-2}]\\ = [1.5-\frac{3}{49}] - [1-\frac{1}{12} ]\\  = 1.439 - 0.9167\\= 0.5223feet

c) The total number of feet grown during the second year can be gotten by substituting the value of limit from t = 0 to t = 2 into the equation as shown

\int\limits^2_0 {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} }  } \, dt = [0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2}]^2_0\\= [0.5(2)-3(2+4)^{-2}] - [0.5(0)-3(0+4)^{-2}]\\= [1-3(6)^{-2}] - [0-3(4)^{-2}]\\ = [1-\frac{1}{12}] - [-\frac{3}{16} ]\\= \frac{11}{12}+\frac{3}{16}\\   = 0.9167 - 0.1875\\= 0.7292feet

As a town gets​ smaller, the population of its high school decreases by 8​% each year. The senior class has 250 students now. In
lianna [129]

Answer:

<em>11 years</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of exponential decay.

Let n = number of years; p = population after n years; a = initial population; r = rate of decay

p = a(1 - r)^n

Now we substitute the numbers we know leaving n as the only unknown.

100 = 250(1 - 0.08)^n

100 = 250(0.92)^n

Divide both sides by 250.

0.4 = 0.92^n

Take the log base ten of each side.

log 0.4 = log 0.92^n

Use log rule: log a^n = n * log a

log 0.4 = n * log 0.92

Divide both sides by log 0.92

\dfrac{\log 0.4}{\log 0.92} = n

n = 10.989

Answer: 11 years

2. Solve the following system. Show all your work. -3x + 2y + z = -6 x + 3y + 2z = 5 4x + 4y + 3z = 13 Is there a step I'm skipp
mr Goodwill [35]

-3x + 2y + z = -6

(3)x + 3y + 2z = 5(3) We want to get rid of any variable within 2 equations. The easiest one would be by multiplying both sides of eq#2 by 3 and add it to eq#1.

-3x+2y+z=-6

3x+9y+6z=15

Add them together to get 11y+7z=9

(-4)x+3y+2z=5(-4) Now,multiply the original eq#2 by -4 to cancel out x in the last equation

-4x-12y-8z=-20

4x + 4y + 3z = 13

add them together to get -8y-5z=-7

Now multiply the eq 11y+7z=9 by 5 and the equation -8y-5z=-7 by 7 to cancel out the z variable when we add them together.

Once we multiply them, we get

-56y-35z=-49

55y+35z=45

add them together to get -y=-4 and we know y=4

substitute y into any equation here that has y and any other 1 variable like -8y-5z=-7 and get z=-5

Finally, we know y=4 and z=-5, we can substitue that into any of the original eqs like  -3x + 2y + z = -6 and we get x=-3

To check, just substitute these values into any of the equations above
