Answer:

1 in 120 or 0.83%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 possible winners to be called first, 4 possible winners are then left to be called second, 3 to be called third, 2 to be called fourth and the final winner is left to be called last. Therefore, the number of possible ways to arrange the winners is:

n=5*4*3*2*1\\n=120

There is only one possible order for which the winners are called in order by the age from youngest to oldest. Therefore, the probability of this happening is 1 in 120 or 0.83%.

A swimming pool whose volume is 10 comma 000 gal contains water that is 0.03​% chlorine. Starting at tequals​0, city water conta
Katarina [22]

Answer:

C(60) = 2.7*10⁻⁴

t = 1870.72 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x(t) be the amount of chlorine in the pool at time t. Then the concentration of chlorine is  

C(t) = 3*10⁻⁴*x(t).

The input rate is 6*(0.001/100) = 6*10⁻⁵.

The output rate is 6*C(t) = 6*(3*10⁻⁴*x(t)) = 18*10⁻⁴*x(t)

The initial condition is x(0) = C(0)*10⁴/3 = (0.03/100)*10⁴/3 = 1.

The problem is to find C(60) in percents and to find t such that 3*10⁻⁴*x(t) = 0.002/100.  

Remember, 1 h = 60 minutes. The initial value problem is  

dx/dt= 6*10⁻⁵ - 18*10⁻⁴x =  - 6* 10⁻⁴*(3x - 10⁻¹)               x(0) = 1.

The equation is separable. It can be rewritten as dx/(3x - 10⁻¹) = -6*10⁻⁴dt.

The integration of both sides gives us  

Ln |3x - 0.1| / 3 = -6*10⁻⁴*t + C    or    |3x - 0.1| = e∧(3C)*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴t).  

Therefore, 3x - 0.1 = C₁*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴t).

Plug in the initial condition t = 0, x = 1 to obtain C₁ = 2.9.

Thus the solution to the IVP is

x(t) = (1/3)(2.9*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴t)+0.1)

then  

C(t) = 3*10⁻⁴*(1/3)(2.9*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴t)+0.1) = 10⁻⁴*(2.9*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴t)+0.1)

If  t = 60

We have

C(60) = 10⁻⁴*(2.9*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴*60)+0.1) = 2.7*10⁻⁴

Now, we obtain t such that 3*10⁻⁴*x(t) = 2*10⁻⁵

3*10⁻⁴*(1/3)(2.9*e∧(-18*10⁻⁴t)+0.1) = 2*10⁻⁵

t = 1870.72 s

Shalinda wants to leave an 18% tip for her
ki77a [65]

Hello There! Shalinda's total is $29.62.

Our first step is to find 18% of $25.10. To do this, multiply 25.10 by 0.18.

25.10 x 0.18 = 4.518 (Which can be rounded up to 4.52)

So, this gives us the tip, but the question is asking what her total is, including the tip. To find her total, add the price before tip and the tip together.

25.10 + 4.52 = 29.62

So, her total with the tip is $29.62! I hope this was helpful, have a great day!
