The number of gift baskets Nikki can make varies directly with the amount of time she spends making the baskets . She can make 1

Mathematics

scoundrel [369]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of gift baskets Nikki can make varies directly with the amount of time she spends making the baskets .

Let n be the number of baskets and let t be the mount of time it takes to make the basket. This means that:

n α t

=> n = kt

where k = constant of proportionality

She can make 4 baskets in every 1/2 hour.

This means that:

4 = k * 1/2

=> k = 4 * 2 = 8 baskets per hour

The time is now 5 hours (t = 5). Therefore:

n = 8 * 5 = 40 baskets

She can make 40 baskets in 5 hours.

A truck weighing 150kN and travelling at 2m/sec impacts with a buffer
FrozenT [24]

The maximum compression of the spring is 0.276 m

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we calculate the spring  constant of the spring, by using Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F = 10 kN = 10,000 N is the force applied

x = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m is the corresponding compression of the spring

k is the spring constant

Solving for k,

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{10,000}{0.0125}=8\cdot 10^5 N/m

When the truck impacts with the spring, all the kinetic energy of the truck is converted into elastic potential energy of the spring, so we can write

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 (1)

where

m is the mass of the truck

v = 2 m/s is the initial speed of the truck

k=8\cdot 10^5 N/m is the spring constant

x is the compression of the spring

The mass of the truck can be found from its weight:

m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{150,000 N}{9.81 N/kg}=15,290 kg

So now we can re-arrange eq.(1) to find the compression, x:

x=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(15,290)(2)^2}{8\cdot 10^5}}=0.276 m

3400 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 8. 25%. How much will be in the account after 25 years, to
OLEGan [10]

The final amount in the account after 25 years is $24670.42.

<h3>How do you calculate the final Amount after 25 Years?</h3>

Given that 3400 dollars are placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 8.25% for 25 years.

The final amount in the account is calculated by the formula given below.

A = P ( 1 + \dfrac {R}{100})^T

Where A is the final amount, P is the initial principal balance, R is the interest rate, T is the time period.

The final amount is given below.

A = 3400 ( 1 + \dfrac {8.25}{100})^{25}

A = 3400 (7.256005874)

A = 24670.41997= 24570.42

Hence we can conclude that the final amount in the account after 25 years is $24670.42.

Suppose the wholesale price of a certain brand of medium-sized eggs p (in dollars/carton) is related to the weekly supply x (in
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1300

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

x = 35

\frac{dp}{dt}=-0.05  [rate of change of price with time]

We want to find \frac{dx}{dt}, which is the rate at which supply is changing.

First, we need to implicitly differentiate the equation given:

625p^2-x^2=100\\1250p\frac{dp}{dt}-2x\frac{dx}{dt}=0

Here, we have what we need except for p. We find p when x = 35:

625p^2 - x^2 =100\\625p^2 - (35)^2 =100\\625p^2=1325\\p=1.46

Now, find dx/dt:

1250(1.46)(-0.05)-2(35)\frac{dx}{dt}=0\\-91.25-70\frac{dx}{dt}=0\\\frac{dx}{dt}=-1.30

In thousands, 1.30 * 1000 = 1300 cartons per week decrease

If 2x - 3y = 24 and 3x + 4y = 2, what is the value of x - y ?
Reika [66]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y = 24 ------ (1)

3x + 4y = 2 ------ (2)

(1) × 4,

8x - 12y = 96 ------ (3)

(2) × 3,

9x + 12y = 6 ------ (4)

(3) + (4)

17x = 96 + 6

= 102

x = 102 ÷ 17

= 6

Sub x = 6 into (2),

3(6) + 4y = 2

18 + 4y = 2

4y = 2 - 18

= -16

y = -16 ÷ 4

= -4

Therefore,

x - y = 6 - (-4)

= 6 + 4

= 10
