Olin [163]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Yes. The ratios of towers to customers (thousands) are all equivalent to a unit rate of 52 Towers/(Thousand customers)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data can be presented as follows;

Cell Phone Towers

Customer (thousands)    {}   Towers

1) 5.25            {}                          273

2) 6.25            {}                         325

3) 7.25            {}                         377

4) 9.25            {}                         481

From the given data, we have the ratio Towers/Customer (thousands) given as follows;

For 1), we have;

273 Towers/(5.25 thousands customers) = 52 Towers/(Thousand customer)

For 2), we have;

325 Towers/(6.25 thousands customers) = 52 Towers/(Thousand customer)

For 3), we have;

377 Towers/(7.25 thousands customers) = 52 Towers/(Thousand customer)

For 4), we have;

481 Towers/(9.25 thousands customers) = 52 Towers/(Thousand customer)

Therefore, the ratios of towers to customers (thousands) all have the same equivalent unit rate of 52 Towers/(thousand customers).

Find the exponential function that passes through the points (2,80) and (5,5120)​
juin [17]

Answer:

  y = 5·4^x

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), whose relationship can be described by the exponential function ...

  y = a·b^x

you can find the values of 'a' and 'b' as follows.

Substitute the given points:

  y1 = a·b^(x1)

  y2 = a·b^(x1)

Divide the second equation by the first:

  y2/y1 = ((ab^(x2))/(ab^(x1)) = b^(x2 -x1)

Take the inverse power (root):

  (y2/y1)^(1/(x2 -x1) = b

Use this value of 'b' to find 'a'. Here, we have solved the first equation for 'a'.

  a = y1/(b^(x1))

In summary:

  • b = (y2/y1)^(1/(x2 -x1))
  • a = y1·b^(-x1)

__

For the problem at hand, (x1, y1) = (2, 80) and (x2, y2) = (5, 5120).

  b = (5120/80)^(1/(5-2)) = ∛64 = 4

  a = 80·4^(-2) = 80/16 = 5

The exponential function is ...

  y = 5·4^x

Determine whether the data described in the tables is best modeled by a linear function or an exponential function.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Electric car = Exponential function (decreasing cost)

Gasoline car = Exponential function (increasing cost)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data the Electric car, we have;

Time (years)   {}     Cost (thousands of dollars)

0                           {}      35

5                           {}      27

10                           {}     21

15                           {}     16

20                           {}    12.5

The difference between successive term is such that each term decreases by approximately the same percentage given as follows

1st and 2nd term (35 - 27)/35 × 100 ≈ 22.8571% decrease

2nd and 3rd term (27 - 21)/27 × 100 ≈ 22.222% decrease

3rd and 4th term (21 - 16)/21 × 100 ≈ 23.81% decrease

4th and 5th term (16 - 12.5)/16 × 100 ≈ 21.875% decrease

Therefore. the electric car is best approximated by exponential function

The given data the Gasoline car, we have;

Time (years)   {}     Cost (thousands of dollars)

0                           {}      35

5                           {}      40.2

10                           {}    46.3

15                           {}    53.2

20                           {}    61.2

The difference between successive term is such that each term increases by approximately the same percentage given as follows

1st and 2nd term (40.2 - 35)/35 × 100 ≈ 14.857% decrease

2nd and 3rd term (46.3 - 40.2)/40.2 × 100 ≈ 15.174% decrease

3rd and 4th term (53.2 - 46.3)/46.3× 100 ≈ 14.9% decrease

4th and 5th term (61.2 - 53.2)/53.2× 100 ≈ 15.03% decrease

Therefore. the Gasoline car is best approximated by exponential function

How do I solve : COT pi/4 ...?
Wewaii [24]
Cot x = cos x / sin x
cot π/4 = cot 45° = cos 45° / sin 45°
We know that sin 45° and sin 45° have the same value:
cos 45° = sin 45° = √2 / 2;
cos 45° / sin 45° = √2/2 : √2/2 = 1
Answer:
cot π/4 = 1
