What is the slope of the line shown in the graph? -2 -1 -1/2 1/2

Our first step is to figure out what formulas are needed for diameter, circumference, and area of a circle.

Diameter is simply twice the size of the radius so:
2 * radius = 2 * 40 feet = 80 ft.

Circumference = 2 * pi * radius = 80 ft * pi
If we say that pi = 3.14, then:
circumference = 251.2 ft.

Area = pi * radius^2 = pi * 1600 ft^2
Once again, if we assert pi = 3.14, then:
area = 3.14 * 1600 ft^2 = 5024 ft^2.

Ben consumes an energy drink that contains caffeine. After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decr

Airida [17]

Answer:

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

Step-by-step explanation:

After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decreases exponentially.

This means that the amount of caffeine after t hours is given by:

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}$

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722.

1 - 0.2722 = 0.7278, thus, $A(10) = 0.7278A(0)$ . We use this to find k.

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}$

$0.7278A(0) = A(0)e^{-10k}$

$e^{-10k} = 0.7278$

$\ln{e^{-10k}} = \ln{0.7278}$

$-10k = \ln{0.7278}$

$k = -\frac{\ln{0.7278}}{10}$

$k = 0.03177289938
$

Then

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938t}$

What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body?

We have to find find A(5), as a function of A(0). So

$A(5) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938*5}$

$A(5) = 0.8531$

The decay factor is:

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

leonhard wants to place a triangular-based cabinet in the corner of his rectangle-shaped living room. the triangular base has a

Georgia [21]

The answer is $x = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{193} }{4}$ .

There is very similar question on Brainly, in which dimensions of the living room are given (20 feet, 30 feet).
So, knowing this, we first need to calculate how much 6% of the living room is.
The area of the living room is 600 square feet, since it is rectangle-shaped:
P = a * b = 200 feet * 30 feet = 600 square feet.

6% of 600 square feet is 36 square feet:
600 square feet : 100% = A : 6%
A = 600 * 6 / 100 = 36 square feet

The area of the triangular-based cabinet (A) is $A = \frac{a*h}{2}$ , where a is the base, and h is the height of the triangle.
It is given:
A = 36
a = 2x + 3
h = 3x + 6

Now, let's implement this to the formula $A = \frac{a*h}{2}$ :
$36 = \frac{(2x+3)(3x+6)}{2}$
⇒ $36*2=6 x^{2} +12x+9x+18$
$72=6 x^{2} +21x+18$

Let's both sides divide by 3:
$24=2 x^{2} +7x+6$
⇒ $2 x^{2} +7x-18=0$

This is the quadratic formula ( $a x^{2} +bx+c=0$ ) for which
$x = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}$ or
 $x = \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}$ .
We will use only $x = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}$ , because the length cannot have negative value.

From the equation $2 x^{2} +7x-18=0$ , we know that
a = 2
b = 7
c = -18

Thus, $x = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{193} }{4}$ :
 $x= \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ (7)^{2} -4*2*(-18)} }{2*2} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{49+144} }{4} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{193} }{4}$
