At the end of the summer, I decide to drain the swimming pool. I noticed that it drains
faster when there is more water in the pool. That was interesting to me, so I decided to measure the rate at which it drains. I found that it was draining at a rate of 3% every 5
minutes. How many gallons are left in the pool after 50 minutes? About how many minutes will it take to have less than 1000 gallons in the pool? Justify your answer with a
mathematical model of the problem situation.

Answers

Answer 1
After 50 minutes, there would be 1,106 gallons of water left in the pool.The amount of time it would take to have less than 1000 gallons in the pool is equal to 66.6 minutes.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function can be defined as a mathematical function whose values are generated by a constant that is raised to the power of the argument. Mathematically, an exponential function is represented by this formula:

f(x) = eˣ

Generally speaking, a mathematical model for any quantity (water) that decreases by r percent per unit of time is an exponential function of this form:

P(t) = I(1 - r)^t

Where:

P(t ) represents the volume of water in gallons.t represents the time or number of years.I represents the initial volume of water.r represents the decay rate.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

P(t) = I(1 - r)^t

P(50) = 1500 × (1 - 0.3)^0.2{50}

P(50) = 1500 × (0.97)^10

P(50) = 1,106 gallons.

Therefore, there would be 1,106 gallons of water left in the pool after 50 minutes.

Next, we would determine the amount of time it would take to have less than 1000 gallons in the pool:

P(t) = I(1 - r)^t

1000 = 1500 × (1 - 0.3)^0.2t

1000 = 1500 × (0.97)^0.2t

1000/1500 = (0.97)^0.2t

2/3 = (0.97)^0.2t

Taking the log of both sides, we have:

log0.97(0.2t) = log(2/3)

t = log(2/3)/(0.27log0.97)

Time, t = 66.6 minutes.

10) Your friend has a play tepee. The tepee
has a radius of 4 feet and a height of 6
feet. What is the volume of the tepee?

Answers

The volume of the tepee is 100.48 feet³

The formula for the volume of tepee is same as the volume of cone which is given as :

               V = 1/3 πr²h        (1)

where V = volume

           r = radius of the tepee

           h = height of the tepee

According to the question we have been given that

            radius = 4 feet

             height = 6 feet

Putting the required values in equation (1) we get

                V = 1/3 π (4)²(6)

                   = 1/3 (3.14)(96)

                   = 301.44/3

Find the length
Of the three line segments that form the triangle pictured below. The units of the grid each represent one centimeter.

4. Show your work or discribe how you found the length of the diagonal segment AB

5. Give the x-coordinate of the midpoint of AC. X=?

6.( same thing as 5 just with BC)

7.(same thing as 6,and 5 just with AB)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

for the lengths of BC and AC we can count the squares, because the lengths of these lines are the sum of the side lengths of each inducing square.

1.

BC = 7 - -2 = 7 + 2 = 9 cm

2.

AC = 13 - 1 = 12 cm

3.

but for AB we cannot do that, because AB consists of the lengths of all the diagonals of the squares. and a diagonal must always be longer than any side.

just look at the triangle : it is clear that AB must be longer than AC.

no, for a line that goes across the grid squares we need other methods.

in our case, we have a right-angled triangle and can use Pythagoras

c² = a² + b²

c being the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90° angle), a and b being the legs of the triangle (enclosing the 90° angle).

AB is in our case the Hypotenuse, and we get

AB² = 12² + 9² = 144 + 81 = 225

AB = sqrt(225) = 15 cm

4.

as explained, we used Pythagoras.

5.

the coordinates for a midpoint between 2 points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are simply

((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)

A = (13, -2)

B = (1, 7)

C = (1, -2)

midpoint AC = ((13+1)/2, (-2 + -2)/2) = (14/2, -4/2) =

= (7, -2)

the x coordinate is 7.

6.

midpoint BC = ((1+1)/2, (7+ -2)/2) = (2/2, 5/2) = (1, 2.5)

the y coordinate is 2.5

7.

midpoint AB = ((13+1)/2, (-2+7)/2) = (14/2, 5/2) =

= (7, 2.5)

A charge of $8.99 is automatically deducted from Ari's bank account each
month for a live TV streaming service. What is the change in Ari's bank
account after 6 months for this service?

Answers

Ari loss 53.94% of his account balance for this live tv streaming service.

Given,

The charge for a live tv streaming service that is automatically deducted from Ari's bank account each month = $8.99

This deduction continues for 6 months.

We have to find the change in Ari's bank account after 6 months for this service.

Charge for 1 month = 8.99

Charge for 6 months = 6 × 8.99 = 53.94

That is if Ari had $100 in his account, now after 6 months 53.94% deducted for the tv streaming service charge.

Now, he has an account balance:

100 - 53.94 = 46.06

In terms of amount, he has an account balance of $46.06.

In terms of percentage,

Ari lost 53.94% from his account balance and now he has 46.06% account balance.

Explanation: you can identify the range or limit of this equation by either looking at the graph or understanding the equation logically.

Looking at the graph, you can see to the left of the Y axis, the graph is approaching but not touching Y = 0. This means that Y = 0 is a limit to this equation and that the graph will not cross this line.

Or we can think about it logically. If we keep multiplying by 2 over and over, a value will keep getting bigger to infinity. That's the right side of this graph. Then for x < 0, that represents dividing by 2 over and over. That value will only ever get smaller and smaller. But never reach zero. It's like folding a paper in half forever.


How long would it take to double your principal in an account that pavs 6.5 % annual interest compounded continuously?

Answers

It will take 4.63 years to double the principal.

The formula for calculating the amount (A) on a principal (P) invested at the rate of r%, compounded continuously after t years is-

A = P[tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

Here r = 6.5%

= 0.065

Let the principal amount be P,

then the amount after t years = 2P

A = P[tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

2P = P[tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

2P/P = [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

2 = [tex]e^{0.065t}[/tex]

Taking log on both sides-

Log 2 = log [tex]e^{0.065t}[/tex]

Log 2 = 0.065t log e

Log 2 = 0.065t

0.65t = Log 2t

= log 2/ 0.065t

= 0.301/ 0.065 t

= 4.63

Thus, it will take 4.63 years to double the principal.

Three orders are placed at a sandwich shop. Four sandwiches, two beverages, and

three sandwiches, three beverages, and two salads costs $38. How much does each

Answers

The respective prices are given below as

The price of the sandwich is 20/3 dollars.

The salad may be purchased for a price of $16/3.

There is a fee of $2 for the drinks.

How can you build equations that are simultaneous?

Let's say that the price of the sandwich is x.

Allow the price of salad to equal y.

Allow the price of drinks to equal z.

The new total for this meal is $46. It includes three sandwiches, three beers, and two salads. Thus;

3x + 3y + 2z = 40 ——- (eq 1)

The price of $29 covers two sandwiches, two drinks, and one salad.

Thus;

2x + 2y + z = 26 ——-(eq 2)

It will cost you $54 for four sandwiches, one drinks, and three salads. Thus;

4x + y + 3z = 38 ———-(eq 3)

The following are the results of concurrently solving the three equations:

x = 20/3

y = 16/3

z = 2

Therefore, the following is how much each item costs:

There is a charge of $20/3 for the sandwich.

The salad may be purchased for a price of $ 16/3.

There is a fee of $2 for the drinks.

1≤ x≤ 60 consolation prize

60 ≤ x ≤ 70 stuffed duck

70≤ x ≤ banana

We have 75 possible numbers equally likely to select, and 1111 outcomes where we win the stuffed duck

60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69 and 70

Therefore, the probability of winning a stuffed duck is

p(60 ≤ x ≤ 70) = 11/75= 0.146

The event of not winning a duck or a banana is that of winning the consolation prize, that is, picking a number 1 ≤x ≤ 60.

Those are 59 equally likely to occur outcomes. Then we have

c= 59/75= 0.786

To check whether this result is right, we can use the complementary events law. That is, the probability of not winning a duck or a banana is 11 minus the sum of the probabilities of winning a duck or a banana. Mathematically this is

p (1 ≤ x ≤ 60) = 1-(p (60≤x≤70)+p(70≤x≤75)

p (1≤ x ≤ 60) = 0.786

Logarithm when written as log has a base of 10, the logarithm of a number that is same as it's base is always 1, the log of 1 is always zero, because any nonzero number raised to 0 is 1.We will find the value of log 5 first and then choose the nearest integer that is less than log 5.
