Answer:

$y=e^{-3t}(A\: cos\: t+B\:sin\:t)$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given Second-Order Homogenous Differential Equation</u>

$y''+6y'+10y=0$

<u>Use Auxiliary Equation</u>

<u /> $m^2+6m+10=0\\\\(m+3)^2+1=0\\\\(m+3)^2=-1\\\\m+3=\pm i\\\\m=-3\pm i$

<u>General Solution</u>

<u /> $y=e^{pt}(A\: cos\: qt+B\:sin\:qt)\\\\y=e^{-3t}(A\: cos\: t+B\:sin\:t)$

Note that the DE has two distinct complex solutions $p\pm qi$ where $A$ and $B$ are arbitrary constants.

A farmer grows two types of grain in his fields. He has a seed budget of $17,000.00 and has spent $9,200.00 to plant wheat seed

Zarrin [17]

Okay so first you have to subtract 17000 from 9200 to see how much money you have left to spend. Then once you get that number, which is 7800, you have to see what's that maximum number of acres that you can get. So you divide 7800 from 41.00 and you can get your answer. Your answer will be 190 acres. 190 acres is the highest you can go without going over budget.

Simon must maintain an average grade of 80% or better in his math class to be eligible to play sports.His math grade so far are

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Let x be the percentage score he got in fifth test,

According to the question,

His score in first, second, third and fourth test are 80%, 84%, 76% and 77% respectively,

Thus, the average of his total score in the five test,

= $\frac{80+84+76+77+x}{5}$

But, Again according to the question,

The average of the five grades as greater than or equal to 80%

That is,

$\frac{80+84+76+77+x}{5}\geq 80$

⇒ $\frac{317+x}{5}\geq 80$

⇒ $317 + x \geq 400$

⇒ $x\geq 83$

Thus, the least score he can get in the fifth test is 83.
