Answer:

The equation that relates the weight of the water and the container in pounds and the amount of water in gallons is $A = \frac{W}{8.34}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Physics we understand that conversions are represented by the following linear equation:

$u' = r\cdot u$ (1)

Where:

$u$ - Original value, measured in original unit. (pounds)

$r$ - Conversion value, measured in final unit per original unit. (gallons per pound)

$u'$ - Final value, measured in final unit. (gallons)

If we know that $u' = A$ , $u = W$ and $r = \frac{1}{8.34} \,\frac{gal}{lbm}$ , then the equation is:

$A = \frac{W}{8.34}$

The equation that relates the weight of the water and the container in pounds and the amount of water in gallons is $A = \frac{W}{8.34}$ .

A triangular parking lot has two sides that are the same length and the third side is 5 m longer. If the perimeter is 71 m, find

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The equation can be expressed as;

x+y=71 where,

Lengths of two equal sides=x=22 m

Lengths of longer side=y=27 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The total perimeter can be expressed as;

Total perimeter=Total length of the equal sides+total length of the longer side

where;

Total perimeter=71 m

Total length of each of the equal sides=x m

Total length of longer side=y=(x+5) m

replacing;

x+y=71...equation 1

71=(2×x)+(x+5)

2 x+x=71-5

3 x=66

x=66/3

x=22 m

y=x+5=22+5=27 m

Lengths of two equal sides=22 m

Lengths of longer side=27 m

Equation;

x+y=71

If the radius of a circle is 3, calculate the diameter.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The diameter would be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

the radius is half of a diameter, so you would have to double the radius to get the diameter

d=2r

=2(3)

=6

The diameter reaches across the circle, while the radius reaches only half way, so you would have to double the radius to get the diameter (2r)

sorry if this doesnt make sense

The use of mathematical methods to study the spread of contagious diseases goes back at least to some work by Daniel Bernoulli i

harina [27]

Answer:

a

$y(t) = y_o e^{\beta t}$

b

$x(t) = x_o e^{\frac{-\alpha y_o }{\beta }[e^{-\beta t} - 1] }$

c

$\lim_{t \to \infty} x(t) = x_oe^{\frac{-\alpha y_o}{\beta } }$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

$\frac{dy}{y} = -\beta dt$

Now integrating both sides

$ln y = \beta t + c$

Now taking the exponent of both sides

$y(t) = e^{\beta t + c}$

=> $y(t) = e^{\beta t} e^c$

Let $e^c = C$

So

$y(t) = C e^{\beta t}$

Now from the question we are told that

$y(0) = y_o$

Hence

$y(0) = y_o = Ce^{\beta * 0}$

=> $y_o = C$

So

$y(t) = y_o e^{\beta t}$

From the question we are told that

$\frac{dx}{dt} = -\alpha xy$

substituting for y

$\frac{dx}{dt} = - \alpha x(y_o e^{-\beta t })$

=> $\frac{dx}{x} = -\alpha y_oe^{-\beta t} dt$

Now integrating both sides

$lnx = \alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} + c$

Now taking the exponent of both sides

$x(t) = e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} + c}$

=> $x(t) = e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} } e^c$

Let $e^c = A$

=> $x(t) =K e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }$

Now from the question we are told that

$x(0) = x_o$

So

$x(0)=x_o =K e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta * 0} }$

=> $x_o = K e^{\frac {\alpha y_o }{\beta } }$

divide both side by $(K * x_o)$

=> $K = x_o e^{\frac {\alpha y_o }{\beta } }$

So

$x(t) =x_o e^{\frac {-\alpha y_o }{\beta } } * e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }$

=> $x(t)= x_o e^{\frac{-\alpha * y_o }{\beta} + \frac{\alpha y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }$

=> $x(t) = x_o e^{\frac{\alpha y_o }{\beta }[e^{-\beta t} - 1] }$

Generally as t tends to infinity , $e^{- \beta t}$ tends to zero

so

$\lim_{t \to \infty} x(t) = x_oe^{\frac{-\alpha y_o}{\beta } }$
