Mathematics

Answer:

p = 9 when q = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

p is inversely proportional to the square of q

This means that:

p = \frac{k}{q^2}

In which k is a constant multiplier.

p is 25 when q is 3

We use this to find k.

p = \frac{k}{q^2}

25 = \frac{k}{3^2}

k = 25*9 = 225

So

p = \frac{225}{q^2}

Determine p when q is equal to 5.

p = \frac{225}{q^2} = \frac{225}{5^2} = 9

p = 9 when q = 5.

Verizon [17]
To find 15% of 23000,
23000 x (15/100) = 23000 x 0.15 = 3450
So her salary for the month would be $3450.

A manufacturing plant earned $80 per man-hour of labor when it opened. Each year, the plant earns an additional 5% per man-hour.
baherus [9]

A function that gives the amount that the plant earns per man-hour t years after it opens is \mathrm{A}(\mathrm{t})=80 \times 1.05^{\mathrm{t}}

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that  

A manufacturing plant earned $80 per man-hour of labor when it opened.

Each year, the plant earns an additional 5% per man-hour.

Need to write a function that gives the amount A(t) that the plant earns per man-hour t years after it opens.  

Amount earned by plant when it is opened = $80 per man-hour

As it is given that each year, the plants earns an additional of 5% per man hour

So Amount earned by plant after one year = $80 + 5% of $80 = 80 ( 1 + 0.05) = (80 x 1.05)

Amount earned by plant after two years is given as:

=(80 \times 1.05)+5 \% \text { of }(80 \times 1.05)=(80 \times 1.05)(1.05)=80 \times 1.052

Similarly Amount earned by plant after three years =80 \times 1.05^{t}

\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow \text { Amount earned by plant after } t \text { years }=80 \times 1.05^{t}} \\\\ {\Rightarrow \text { Required function } \mathrm{A}(t)=80 \times 1.05^{t}}\end{array}

Hence a function that gives the amount that the plant earns per man-hour t years after it opens is \mathrm{A}(t)=80 \times 1.05^{t}
