Is 3/2 greater than 1? Or Less than

Mathematics

Answer:

3/2 is greater than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A little trick to immediately know if a number is more or less than when it involves fractions versus whole numbers is that improper fractions will always be greater than 1.

If you want to confirm this, dividing 3/2 equals 1.5, ergo 1.5 > 1.

In essence, improper fractions will always represent a number greater than one contrasted to proper fractions because if you put it on a perspective (let's say you have 13 pie slices but you only needed 12, that means there is a pie slice that's extra that makes it greater than the original pie slices).

Hope that helps :)

Answer:

(a) 100 fishes

(b) t = 10: 483 fishes

t = 20: 999 fishes

t = 30: 1168 fishes

(c)

$P(\infty) = 1200$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$P(t) =\frac{d}{1+ke^-{ct}}$

$d = 1200\\k = 11\\c=0.2$

Solving (a): Fishes at t = 0

This gives:

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*0}}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0}}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11*1}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{1+11}$

$P(0) =\frac{1200}{12}$

$P(0) = 100$

Solving (a): Fishes at t = 10, 20, 30

$t = 10$

$P(10) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*10}} =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{2}}\\\\P(10) =\frac{1200}{1+11*0.135}=\frac{1200}{2.485}\\\\P(10) =483$

$t = 20$

$P(20) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*20}} =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{4}}\\\\P(20) =\frac{1200}{1+11*0.0183}=\frac{1200}{1.2013}\\\\P(20) =999$

$t = 30$

$P(30) =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{0.2*30}} =\frac{1200}{1+11*e^-{6}}\\\\P(30) =\frac{1200}{1+11*0.00247}=\frac{1200}{1.0273}\\\\P(30) =1168$

Solving (c): $\lim_{t \to \infty} P(t)$

In (b) above.

Notice that as t increases from 10 to 20 to 30, the values of $e^{-ct}$ decreases

This implies that:

${t \to \infty} = {e^{-ct} \to 0}$

So:

The value of P(t) for large values is:

$P(\infty) = \frac{1200}{1 + 11 * 0}$

$P(\infty) = \frac{1200}{1 + 0}$

$P(\infty) = \frac{1200}{1}$

$P(\infty) = 1200$

X = approximately 633

Steps:
lnx + ln3x = 14

ln3x^2 = 14 : Use the log property of addition which is to multiply same log together so you multiply x and 3x because they have log in common

(ln3x^2) = (14) : take base of e on both sides to get rid of the log
e e

3x^2 = e^14 : e cancels out log on the left side and the right side is e^14

x^2 = e^14 / 3 : divide both sides by 3

√x^2 = √(e^14 / 3) : take square root on both sides to get rid of the square 2 on x

x = √(e^14) / √3 : square root cancels out square 2 leaving x by itself

x = e^7 / √3 : simplify the √(e^14) so 14 (e^14) divide by 2 (square root) = 7

x = 633.141449221 : solve

Koran is spending $12 on games and rides at another carnival, where a game costs $0.25 and a ride costs $1.

Vlad [161]

Answer:

$0.25x+y=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the number of rides

x ---> the number of games

we know that

The number of rides multiplied by $1 plus the number of games multiplied by $0.25 must be equal to $12 (the dollar amount Koran is spending)

The equation that represent this situation is

$0.25x+y=12$
