What is the slope of the line

Find the exponential function that satisfies the given conditions: Initial value = 64, decreasing at a rate of 0.5% per week

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is of the form

$y=ab^x$

where a is the initial value and b is the growth/decay rate. Our initial value is 64. That's easy to plug in. It goes in for a. So the first choice is out. Considering b now...

If the rate is decreasing at .5% per week, this means it still retains a rate of

100% - .5% = 99.5%

which is .995 in decimal form.

b is a rate of decay when it is greater than 0 but less than 1; b is a growth rate when it is greater than 1. .995 is less than 1 so it is a rate of decay. The exponential function is, in terms of t,

$f(t) = 64(.995)^t$

3 regions are defined in the figure find the volume generated by rotating the given region about the specific line

anastassius [24]

The volume generated by rotating the given region $R_{3}$ about OC is $\frac{4}{g} \pi$

<h3>Washer method</h3>

Because the given region ( $R_{3}$ ) has a look like a washer, we will apply the washer method to find the volume generated by rotating the given region about the specific line.

solution

We first find the value of x and y

$y=2(x)^{\frac{1}{4} }$

$x=(\frac{y}{2} )^{4}$

$y=2x$

$x=\frac{y}{2}$

$\int\limits^a_b {\pi } \, (R_{o^{2} } - R_{i^{2} } ) dy$

$R_{o} = x = \frac{y}{2}$

$R_{i} = x= (\frac{y}{2}) ^{4}$

$a=0, b=2$

$v= \int\limits^2_o {\pi } \, [(\frac{y}{2})^{2} - ((\frac{y}{2}) ^{4} )^{2} ) dy$

$v= \pi \int\limits^2_o= [\frac{y^{2} }{4} - \frac{y^{8} }{2^{8} }} ] dy$

$v= \pi [\int\limits^2_o {\frac{y^{2} }{4} } \, dy - \int\limits^2_o {\frac{y}{2^{8} } ^{8} } \, dy ]$

$v=\pi [\frac{1}{4} \frac{y^{3} }{3} \int\limits^2_0 - \frac{1}{2^{8} } \frac{y^{g} }{g} \int\limits^2_o\\v= \pi [\frac{1}{12} (2^{3} -0)-\frac{1}{2^{8}*9 } (2^{g} -0)]\\v= \pi [\frac{2}{3} -\frac{2}{g} ]\\v= \frac{4}{g} \pi$
