When a gas is kept at a constant temperature and pressure on it changes, its volume changes according to the following formula,

known as Boyle’s law
where P1 and V1 are the pressure (in atm) and the volume (in litres) at the beginning, and P2 and V2 are the pressure and the volume at the end. Find the final pressure P2 if V1 = 1.5 litres, P1 = 4.5 atm and V2 = 3.5 litres. Round to the nearest tenth of a atm.

Answer:  Approximately 1.9 atm

============================================

Work Shown:

P_1*V_1 = P_2*V_2 \ \text{ ... Boyle's Law}\\\\4.5*1.5 = P_2*3.5\\\\6.75 = P_2*3.5\\\\P_2*3.5 = 6.75\\\\P_2 = \frac{6.75}{3.5}\\\\P_2 \approx 1.92857142857142\\\\P_2 \approx 1.9\\\\

If the volume is 3.5 liters, then the pressure is approximately 1.9 atm.

Note the increase in volume leads to the reduction of pressure, and vice versa. The two variables have an inverse relationship.

-----------

As a check,

P_1*V_1 = P_2*V_2\\\\4.5*1.5 \approx 1.9*3.5\\\\6.75 \approx 6.65\\\\

We don't get the exact thing on both sides, but the two sides are close enough. We have rounding error due to P2 being not exact.

A more accurate check could be

P_1*V_1 = P_2*V_2\\\\4.5*1.5 \approx 1.92857*3.5\\\\6.75 \approx 6.749995\\\\

which has the two sides much closer to one another. This helps us verify the answer.

Using the digits 1 to 9 at most one time each, fill in the boxes to find the largest (or smallest) possible values for x.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

smallest: 8x -3 = 4; 1y +9 = 2. total = -49/8

 largest: 1x -9 = 8; 2y +3 = 7. total = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use variables to represent the box contents, we can write ...

ax -b = c

dy +e = f

Then the values of x and y are ...

 x = (c +b)/a

 y = (f -e)/d

For positive integer values of the variables, x will always be positive, and y may or may not be negative.

Smallest sum

For the sum to be the smallest, we must have x be as small as possible and the ratio (f-e)/d be as negative as possible.

x will be small for large 'a' and for (c+b) small. For y to be as negative as possible, we want 'd' and 'f' small and 'e' large. Best results are obtained for

8x -3 = 4   ⇒   x = 7/8

1y +9 = 2   ⇒   y = -7

For these coefficients, the sum is -6 1/8 = -49/8.

(note that the values of 'b' and 'c' can be swapped with no net effect)

Largest sum

For the sum to be the largest, we must have x as large as possible: (b+c) large and 'a' small. At the same time we must have y be positive and as large as possible: (f-e) positive and large, 'd' small. Best results are obtained for

1x -9 = 8  ⇒   x = 17

2y +3 = 7   ⇒   y = 2

For these coefficients, the sum is 19. Again, 'b' and 'c' can be swapped with no effect.

_____

Additional comment

These extreme values are verified by examination of the 60,480 possible permutations of the coefficients.

Solve the given initial-value problem. the de is of the form dy dx = f(ax + by + c), which is given in (5) of section 2.5. dy dx
shutvik [7]

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\cos(x+y)

Let v=x+y, so that \dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}-1=\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}:

\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}=\cos v+1

Now the ODE is separable, and we have

\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{1+\cos v}=\mathrm dx

Integrating both sides gives

\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm dv}{1+\cos v}=\int\mathrm dx

For the integral on the left, rewrite the integrand as

\dfrac1{1+\cos v}\cdot\dfrac{1-\cos v}{1-\cos v}=\dfrac{1-\cos v}{1-\cos^2v}=\csc^2v-\csc v\cot v

Then

\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm dv}{1+\cos v}=-\cot v+\csc v+C

and so

\csc v-\cot v=x+C

\csc(x+y)-\cot(x+y)=x+C

Given that y(0)=\dfrac\pi2, we find

\csc\left(0+\dfrac\pi2\right)-\cot\left(0+\dfrac\pi2\right)=0+C\implies C=1

so that the particular solution to this IVP is

\csc(x+y)-\cot(x+y)=x+1

BD is the angle bisector of
AlexFokin [52]

Note: Let us consider, we need to find the m\angle ABC and m\angle DBC.

Given:

In the given figure, BD is the angle bisector of ABC.

To find:

The m\angle ABC and m\angle DBC.

Solution:

BD is the angle bisector of ABC. So,

m\angle ABD=m\angle DBC

3x=x+20

3x-x=20

2x=20

Divide both sides by 2.

x=\dfrac{20}{2}

x=10

Now,

m\angle DBC=(x+20)^\circ

m\angle DBC=(10+20)^\circ

m\angle DBC=30^\circ

And,

m\angle ABC=(3x)^\circ+(x+20)^\circ

m\angle ABC=(4x+20)^\circ

m\angle ABC=(4(10)+20)^\circ

m\angle ABC=(40+20)^\circ

m\angle ABC=60^\circ

Therefore, m\angle DBC=30^\circ,m\angle ABD=30^\circ and m\angle ABC=60^\circ.
