The temperature of a cup of coffee varies according to Newton's Law of Cooling: dT dt equals negative k times the quantity T min

us A, where T is the temperature of the coffee, A is the room temperature, and k is a positive constant. If the coffee cools from 100°C to 90°C in 1 minute at a room temperature of 25°C, find the temperature, to the nearest degree Celsius of the coffee after 4 minutes.

Answer:

  (b)  67

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution to the differential equation describing the temperature according to Newton's Law of Cooling could be written as ...

  T = (final temp) + (initial difference)×(decay factor)^t

where the decay factor is the fraction of change during 1 unit of time period t.

__

Here, the initial difference of 100-25 = 75 degrees decays to 90-25 = 65 degrees in 1 minute. So, the units of t are minutes, the decay factor is 65/75, the initial difference is 75 degrees, and the final temperature is 25 degrees. That lets us write the equation as ...

  T = 25 +75(65/75)^t

Then for t=4, the temperature is ...

  T = 25 +75(13/15)^4 ≈ 67.3 . . . . degrees

After 4 minutes the temperature of the coffee is about 67 degrees.

Julio bought tables and chairs for his restaurant. He bought 16 total items and spent $1800. Each table cost $150 and each chair
uysha [10]

Answer:

He bought 6 chairs and 10 tables.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 16

he spent = $1800

1 chair = $50

y chairs = $50y

1 table = $150

x chairs = $150x

so, 150x+50y = 1800

we got two equations :

x+ y = 16

150x+50y = 1800

Using. substitution method,

x+y = 16

so, x = 16-y

Now

150x+50y =1800

or, 150(16-y) + 50y = 1800

or, 2400-150y+50y = 1800

or, 2400-1800 = 150y-50y

or, 600=100y

so, y = 6

now,

x+y = 16

or, x + 6 = 16

so, x = 10

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

 428721

Place of 2's 10s and 10,000s

Therefore its value is 20 and 20,000

Product of the place value = 20 x 20,000 = 4,00,000

b)

37,20,861

Place of 7 is 1,00,000

Therefore the place value is 7,00,000

c)

Greatest 7 digit number is 99,99,999

Adding 1 to it = 99,99,999 + 1 = 1,00,00,000

d)

85642 = 80000 + 5000 + 600 + 40 +2

e)

round off 85642  to nearest thousand = 86,000
