A star is a swirling mass of dense gases powered by thermonuclear reactions. The great solar furnace transforms 7 million tons o

f mass into energy every second. How many tons of mass will be transformed into energy during the star's 10-billion-year lifetime. Hint: Find the number of seconds in 10 billion years.

Answer:

2.20752 x 10^{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you have to do is to look for the number of seconds in one year. You have to multiply 365 days by 86,400 seconds.

  • 365 days refer to the total number of days per year
  • 86,400 seconds refer to the number of seconds per day

Let's solve.

  • 365 x 86,400 = 31,536,000 or 3.1536 x 10^{7}

<em>Therefore, one year has 3.1536 x </em>10^{7}<em> seconds.</em>

Next, you have to know the number of seconds in 10 billion years.

  • (3.1536 x 10^{7}) x  (1.0 x 10^{10}) = 3.1536 x 10^{17}

The last step is to multiply the number of seconds in 10 billion years to 7 million tons of mass per second.

  • (3.1536 x 10^{17}) x 7,000,000 = 2.20752 x 10^{24}

Data collected over a long period of time show that the length of time x to complete a particular college entrance test is norma
Finger [1]

Using the z-table, the probability that a student taking this test will finish in 100 minutes or less is 0.0824 or 8.24%.

For a normally distributed set of data, given the mean and standard deviation, the probability can be determined by solving the z-score and using the z-table.

First, solve for the z-score using the formula below.

z-score = (x – μ) / σ

where x = individual data value = 100

μ = mean = 125

σ = standard deviation = 18

z-score = (100 – 125) / 18

z-score = (-25) / 18

z-score = -1.39

Find the probability that corresponds to the z-score in the z-table. (see attached images)

-1.39 - (-1.3) : -1.4 - (-1.3) = x - 0.0968 : 0.0808 - 0.0968

-0.09 : -0.1 = x - 0.0968 : -0.016

x - 0.0968 = -0.09(-0.016)/-0.1

x = -0.0144 + 0.0968

x = 0.0824

x = 0.0824

Hence, the probability that a student taking this test will finish in 100 minutes or less is 0.0824 or 8.24%.

Exponential growth/decay problem 1
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a) growth

b) $500

c) 6% = 0.06

d) f(x)=500(1.06)^x

e) $595.51

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />

<u>Part (a)</u>

Exponential GROWTH, since interest is applied to the account each year.

<u>Part (b)</u>

Initial amount = $500

<u>Part (c)</u>

Growth factor = 6% = 0.06 (in decimal form)

<u>Part (d)</u>

General form of exponential growth function:

f(x)=a(1+r)^x

where:

  • a = initial amount
  • r = rate of growth (in decimal form)
  • x = time (in years)

Given:

  • a = 500
  • r = 0.06

\implies f(x)=500(1+0.06)^x

\implies f(x)=500(1.06)^x

<u>Part (e)</u>

when x = 3

\begin{aligned}\implies f(3) & =500(1.06)^3\\ & = 595.51\: \sf(nearest\:hundredth)\end{aligned}

1. Find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex 11-gon.
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The measure of the sum of interior angles of a 11-gon is 1620^{o}.

Each interior angle is approximately 147.273^{o}.

Step-by-step explanation:

A convex polygon has the measure of each interior angles to be less than 180^{o}.

But,

sum of interior angles of polygon = (n - 2) x 180^{o}

where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

For a convex 11-gon, we have;

sum of angles of a 11-gon = (11 - 2) x 180^{o}

                                         = 9 x 180^{o}

                                         = 1620^{o}

Sum of angles of a 11-gon = 1620^{o}

To check: convex polygons' interior angles are less than 180^{o}.

so that,

each interior angle of 11-gon = \frac{1620}{11}

                                        = 147.273^{o}
