8 0

Answer:

16,000 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write a ratio

8,000:20,000

Let's write another ratio

x:40,000

We can write a percent proportion.

\frac{8,000}{20,000} =\frac{x}{40,000}

We can see that the relationship between the denominators is multiplied by 2 so that means the relationship between 8,000 and x is x is 2 times greater than 8,000

(a) Find a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the planes −4x+2y−z=1 and 3x−2y+2z=1.
valentinak56 [21]

Find the intersection of the two planes. Do this by solving for <em>z</em> in terms of <em>x</em> and <em>y </em>; then solve for <em>y</em> in terms of <em>x</em> ; then again for <em>z</em> but only in terms of <em>x</em>.

-4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - <em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1

3<em>x</em> - 2<em>y</em> + 2<em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1 = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -8<em>x</em> + 4<em>y</em> - 2 = 1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>

==>   -5<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> = 3

==>   <em>y</em> = (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2

==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2 (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2 - 1 = <em>x</em> + 2

So if we take <em>x</em> = <em>t</em>, the line of intersection is parameterized by

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨<em>t</em>, (3 + 5<em>t</em> )/2, 2 + <em>t</em>⟩

Just to not have to work with fractions, scale this by a factor of 2, so that

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

(a) The tangent vector to <em>r</em><em>(t)</em> is parallel to this line, so you can use

<em>v</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = d/d<em>t</em> ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩ = ⟨2, 5, 2⟩

or any scalar multiple of this.

(b) (-1, -1, 1) indeed lies in both planes. Plug in <em>x</em> = -1, <em>y</em> = 1, and <em>z</em> = 1 to both plane equations to see this for yourself. We already found the parameterization for the intersection,

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

an ivy plant was 19 inches long. two years later it was 33 inches long. what was the percent increase to the nearest hundredth o
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

73.68%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of increase subtract 33-19 to get 14.

The percent increase is the amount of increase/initial length * 100

So 14/19*100 = 73.684...

Rounding to the nearest hundredth = 73.68%
