Given information
----------------------------------------------------------------------
20 feet cost $36

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the cost of 1 foot by dividing by 20
----------------------------------------------------------------------
20 feet = $36
1 foot = $36 ÷ 20
1 foot = $1.8

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the cost of 15 feet by multiplying by 15
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 foot = $1.80
15 feet = $1.80 x 15
15 feet = $27

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: $27

If 20 feet cost $36 then you can divide 36 by 20 to see how much one foot would cost. The answer is $1.80. Then multiply $1.80 x 15 feet and you get $27

A particle moves along the x-axis so that at any time t, t ≥ 0, its acceleration is a(t) = -4sin(2t). If the velocity of the par

sasho [114]

The velocity of the particle is given by

$v(t)=v(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^ta(u)\,\mathrm du$

Since $a(t)=-4\sin2t$ and $v(0)=7$ , we get

$\displaystyle\int_0^ta(u)\,\mathrm du=\int_0^t-4\sin2u\,\mathrm du=2\cos2u\bigg|_0^t=2\cos2t-2$

$\implies v(t)=2\cos2t+5$

Similarly, the position function is obtained via

$x(t)=x(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^tv(u)\,\mathrm du$

We know $v(t)$ and we're told that $x(0)=0$ , so

$\displaystyle\int_0^tv(u)\,\mathrm du=\int_0^t(2\cos2u+5)\,\mathrm du=\sin2u+5u\bigg|_0^t=\sin2t+5t$

$\implies x(t)=\sin2t+5t$

making the answer A.

What is equivalent to -2i(6-7i)

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

-14 - 12i

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply complex arithmetic rule: (ai)(b + ci) = -ac + abi

a = 2, b = 6, c = -7

-( -2(-7) + 2*6i )

-( 14 + 12i)

-14 - 12i

Of the 6.25 billion people in the world, 310 million live in North America. What percent of the world's population lives in Nort

Talja [164]

Answer:

The percent of the world's population lives in North America is <u>5%</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Of the 6.25 billion people in the world, 310 million live in North America.

Now, to find the percent of the world's population lives in North America.

Population of people in the world = 6.25 billion.

1 billion = 1000 million.

So, by using conversion factor we convert into million:

6.25 billion = 6250 million.

Population of people in North America = 310 million.

Now, to get the percent of the world's population lives in North America:

$\frac{310}{6250} \times 100$

$=0.0496\times 100$

$=4.96\%.$

So, the percent to the nearest whole number is 5%.

Therefore, the percent of the world's population lives in North America is 5%.
