Martin is filling his bathtub, but he left the drain partially open. martin knows that it takes 8 minutes to fill his 40 gallon

tub. the equation v = 2.5t represents the volume, v , of water that drains out of the tub in t minutes. if martin leaves the water on, will the tub ever overflow ?
please someone help ​

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that 40 minutes = 8 gallons filled up. We have another equation, v=2.5t, that includes time and volume. If we can make the first equation in terms of time, we can figure out the relative speeds of water entering/exiting the bathtub.

To make 40 minutes = 8 gallons in terms of t, or minutes, we can divide both sides by 8 to get

5 minutes = 1 gallon

5t = v

Therefore, for water entering the tub, we get

5t = v, and for water draining out, we get

2.5t = v

As the time is always positive, the water entering the tub (5t) will always be greater than the water exiting the tub. Therefore, as more water goes in than out, the tub will gradually increase in water level and will eventually overflow

Answer:

(a) y = 350,000 \times (1 + 0.07132)^t

(b) (i) The population after 8 hours is 607,325

(ii) The population after 24 hours is 1,828,643

(c) The rate of increase of the population as a percentage per hour is 7.132%

(d) The doubling time of the population is approximately, 10.06 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The initial population of the bacteria, y₁ = a = 350,000

The time the colony grows, t = 12 hours

The final population of bacteria in the colony, y₂ = 800,000

The exponential growth model, can be written as follows;

y = a \cdot (1 + r)^t

Plugging in the values, we get;

800,000 = 350,000 \times (1 + r)^{12}

Therefore;

(1 + r)¹² = 800,000/350,000 = 16/7

12·㏑(1 + r) = ㏑(16/7)

㏑(1 + r) = (㏑(16/7))/12

r = e^((㏑(16/7))/12) - 1 ≈ 0.07132

The  model is therefore;

y = 350,000 \times (1 + 0.07132)^t

(b) (i) The population after 8 hours is given as follows;

y = 350,000 × (1 + 0.07132)⁸ ≈ 607,325.82

By rounding down, we have;

The population after 8 hours, y = 607,325

(ii) The population after 24 hours is given as follows;

y = 350,000 × (1 + 0.07132)²⁴ ≈ 1,828,643.92571

By rounding down, we have;

The population after 24 hours, y = 1,828,643

(c) The rate of increase of the population as a percentage per hour =  r × 100

∴   The rate of increase of the population as a percentage = 0.07132 × 100 = 7.132%

(d) The doubling time of the population is the time it takes the population to double, which is given as follows;

Initial population = y

Final population = 2·y

The doubling time of the population is therefore;

2 \cdot y = y \times (1 + 0.07132)^t

Therefore, we have;

2·y/y =2 = (1 + 0.07132)^t

t = ln2/(ln(1 + 0.07132)) ≈ 10.06

The doubling time of the population is approximately, 10.06 hours.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Z=2.36

P=0.0091

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis is:

π > 0.55 which is the population proportion

The formula to get the test statistic is

Zstat = P-π/√π(1-π)/n

P =507.4/860 = 0.59 (sample proportion )

n =860 (sample size)

π =0.55(population porportion)

Zstat = 0.59-0.55/√0.55(1-0.55)/860

Zstat =2.36

From Z table the probability of Z score of 2.36 is 0.9909

To calculate for P- value will then be

P= 1 - 0.9909

P= 0.0091
