A mouse population starts with 2,000 mice and grows at a rate of 5% per year. The number of mice after T years can be modeled by

the equation, P(t) = 2000(1.05)^t. What is the average rate of change in the number of mice between the second year and the fifth year, rounded to the nearest whole number?

P(t)=2000(1.05)^2                                           P(t)=2000(1.05)^5

P(t)=2000(1.1025)                                           P(t)=2000(1.2762)

P(t)=2205 for the second year                        P(t)=2552.5 for the fifth year

2552.5-2205= 347.5     347.5/3 about 115.8 more mice each year or 116 when rounded.

I hope that helped. :)

a local school raised 5687.50 for the terry fox foundation. Hua raised 0.8% of this total. how much money did Hua raise?
zlopas [31]
You multiply the $5687.50 by 0.8 to get the total of $4550.
So Hua raised $4550 out of the $5687.50.

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 20 ft3 /min and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The height of the pile is increasing at the rate of  \mathbf{ \dfrac{20}{56.25 \pi}   \ \ \ \ \  ft/min}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 20 ft³ /min

i.e \dfrac{dV}{dt}= 20 \ ft^3/min

we know that radius r is always twice the   diameter d

i.e d = 2r

Given that :

the shape of a cone whose base diameter and height are always equal.

then d = h = 2r

h = 2r

r = h/2

The volume of a cone can be given by the formula:

V = \dfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}

V = \dfrac{\pi (h/2)^2 h}{3}

V = \dfrac{1}{12} \pi h^3

V = \dfrac{ \pi h^3}{12}

Taking the differentiation of volume V with respect to time t; we have:

\dfrac{dV}{dt }= (\dfrac{d}{dh}(\dfrac{\pi h^3}{12})) \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}

\dfrac{dV}{dt }= (\dfrac{\pi h^2}{4} ) \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}

we know that:

\dfrac{dV}{dt}= 20 \ ft^3/min

So;we have:

20= (\dfrac{\pi (15)^2}{4} ) \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}

20= 56.25 \pi \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}

\mathbf{\dfrac{dh}{dt}= \dfrac{20}{56.25 \pi}   \ \ \ \ \  ft/min}

The height of the pile is increasing at the rate of  \mathbf{ \dfrac{20}{56.25 \pi}   \ \ \ \ \  ft/min}
