Answer:

p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If p is inversely proportional to the square of q,

Mathematically

p ∝ 1/q²

p = k × 1/q²

p = k/q²

p is 18 when q is 2,

We find k

18 = k/2²

Cross Multiply

k = 18 × 2²

k = 72

Determine p when q is equal to 3

Hence,

p = k/q²

k = 72, q = 3

p = 72/3²

p = 72/9

p = 8

A cake is removed from an oven. The temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit, of the cake after t minutes can be modeled by the equati
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

210°F

110 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Temperature of cake t minutes after being removed from oven :

f(x)=70+140e^-0.024t

Temperature T the timee it is removed ;

At this point, the time t = 0

f(t)=70+140e^-0.024t

f(x)=70+140e^-0.024(0)

= 70 + 140(1)

= 210°F

how long will it take for the cake to reach a temperature of 80oF

80 = 70+140e^-0.024t

80 - 70 = 140*e^-0.024t

10/140 = e^-0.024t

0.0714285 = e^-0.024t

In(0.0714285) = - 0.024t

−2.639057 = - 0.024t

t = 2.639057 / 0.024

t = 109.9607

t = 110 minutes

What is the math definition for 'counterexample'? When is counterexample used?
LenaWriter [7]
A <u>counterexample</u> is something that proves a statement, or equation, wrong. A counterexample is used in math when someone creates a theorem, writes an equation, or creates a new rule and someone proves it to be false.

<u>For Example:</u>
Let's say that I said <em>an even number plus an odd number always equals an even number</em>. A counterexample of that would be 4 + 5 = 9, because 9 is odd, therefore proving the statement wrong.
