Choose the equation that is the standard form of

Ronch [10]

For this case we have the following equations:
5y = 3-2x
5y-3 = -2x
2x + 5y = 3
2x + 5y-3 = 0
The standard form of the equations is given by:
Ax + By = C
Therefore, the equation written in its standard form is:
2x + 5y = 3
Where,
A = 2
B = 5
C = 3
Answer:
The equation that is the standard form is:
2x + 5y = 3

Find the missing side. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.<br> х<br> 28°<br> 42 in<br> in

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The length of the missing side x = 47.57 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ф = 28°

The length of the side adjacent to the angle Ф is = 42 in

To determine

The hypotenuse x = ?

Using the trigonometric ratio

cos Ф = adjacent / hypotenuse

substitute adjacent = 42 in, hypotenuse = x and Ф = 28°

cos 28° = 42 / x

x = 42 / cos 28°

x = 47.57 in

Therefore, the length of the missing side x = 47.57 in

A 500-gallon tank initially contains 220 gallons of pure distilled water. Brine containing 5 pounds of salt per gallon flows int

Wittaler [7]

Answer: The amount of salt in the tank after 8 minutes is 36.52 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salt in the tank is modelled by the Principle of Mass Conservation, which states:

(Salt mass rate per unit time to the tank) - (Salt mass per unit time from the tank) = (Salt accumulation rate of the tank)

Flow is measured as the product of salt concentration and flow. A well stirred mixture means that salt concentrations within tank and in the output mass flow are the same. Inflow salt concentration remains constant. Hence:

$c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = \frac{d(V_{tank}(t) \cdot c(t))}{dt}$

By expanding the previous equation:

$c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} \cdot c(t)$

The tank capacity and capacity rate of change given in gallons and gallons per minute are, respectivelly:

$V_{tank} = 220\\\frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} = 0$

Since there is no accumulation within the tank, expression is simplified to this:

$c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt}$

By rearranging the expression, it is noticed the presence of a First-Order Non-Homogeneous Linear Ordinary Differential Equation:

$V_{tank} \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + f_{out} \cdot c(t) = c_0 \cdot f_{in}$ , where $c(0) = 0 \frac{pounds}{gallon}$ .

$\frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}} \cdot c(t) = \frac{c_0}{V_{tank}} \cdot f_{in}$

The solution of this equation is:

$c(t) = \frac{c_{0}}{f_{out}} \cdot ({1-e^{-\frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}}\cdot t }})$

The salt concentration after 8 minutes is:

$c(8) = 0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}$

The instantaneous amount of salt in the tank is:

$m_{salt} = (0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}) \cdot (220 gallons)\\m_{salt} = 36.52 pounds$
