a beekeeper estimates that his population of bees will triple each year. currently he has 150 bees. write a function to represent the growth of the beekeepers population over time. use x to represent the number of bees

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x = 150 * 3^{y}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by creating the beginning of the data sample, knowing the population of bees triples each year.

Year 0 = 150

Year 1 = 450

Year 2 = 1350

Year 3 = 4050

Year 4 = 12150

If we look at the numbers, we see they are all divided by 150:

Year 0 = 150 / 150 = 1

Year 1 = 450 / 150 = 3

Year 2 = 1350 / 150 = 9

Year 3 = 4050 / 150 = 27

Year 4 = 12150 / 150 = 81

We then see the result of the division by 150 is in fact the table of multiplication by 3.

So, by inverting the operation, we can see the number of bees (x) for any given year starting from now is 150 times 3 at the power of the year (y).

Quest Manufacturing is building a product that costs $200 to start to build and $6.40 per unit sold. The company plans to sell each unit for $10.50. The company wrote an inequality to determine the minimum number of units (u) that it needs to sell to break even or make a profit on the product. 10.50u ≥ 200 6.40u What is the minimum amount of units that the company needs to sell to break even or make a profit on the product?

Answers

Answer:

49 units

Step-by-step explanation:

10.50u ≥ 200 + 6.40u       solve for u....

4.10u ≥ 200        (subtract 6.40u to both sides)

       u ≥ 200/4.10  (divide both sides by 4.10)

         u ≥ 48.78

         Any number of units greater than 48.78, but they can't sell parts of a unit, so 49 is the minimum number of units that need to be sold to make a profit

Initially a tank contains 10,000 liters of liquid at the time t = 0 minutes a tap is opened, a liquid then follows out of the tank. The volume of the liquid V liters, which remains in the tank after t minutes is given by V = 10,000(0.933)^t

a) Find the value of V after 5 minutes.
b) Find how long, to the nearest second, it takes for half of the initial amount of liquid to follow out of the tank.
c) The tank is regarded as effectively empty when 95% of the liquid has flowed out. Show that it takes almost three quarters of an hour for this to happen.
d) (i) Find the value of 10,000 - V when t = 0.001 minutes
(ii) Hence or otherwise, estimate the initial flow rate of the liquid. Give your answer in liters per minute, correct to two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

a) 7069.82 Liters

b) 600 seconds

c) Shown below

d) (i) 0.6935 liters   (ii)  Since 0.6935 liters in 0.001 minute, so 693.5 liters per minute is as estimate (in liters per minute)

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

We simply put 5 into t of the equation and get the value of V. So:

[tex]V=10,000(0.933)^t\\V=10,000(0.933)^5\\V=7069.82[/tex]

So after 5 minutes the amount remaining is 7069.82 Liters

b)

half of the initial amount is half of 10,000 which is 5000. So we substitute 5000 into V and solve for t using logarithms.

Note: [tex]ln(a^b)=blna[/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]V=10,000(0.933)^t\\5000=10,000(0.933)^t\\0.5=(0.933)^t\\ln(0.5)=ln((0.933)^t)\\ln(0.5)=tln(0.933)\\t=\frac{ln(0.5)}{ln(0.933)}\\t=9.99[/tex]

Thus, t = 9.9949 minutes.

To get answer in seconds, we multiply by 60. Thus 9.9949*60= 600 seconds

c)

95% empty means 5% remaining. 5% of 10,000 = 0.05 * 10,000 = 500. We plug in 500 into V and solve for t as the previous step. Shown below:

[tex]V=10,000(0.933)^t\\500=10,000(0.933)^t\\0.05=0.933^t\\ln(0.05)=ln(0.933^t)\\ln(0.05)=tln(0.933)\\t=\frac{ln(0.05)}{ln(0.933)}\\t=43.1972[/tex]

So it takes around 43.1972 minutes to empty 95%. Since three-quarters of an hour is  [tex](\frac{3}{4})(60)=45[/tex] minutes, we have shown that the time it takes (43.1972 minutes) is very close to three-quarters of an hour.

d)

We plug in 0.001 into t and find V. Then we subtract that value from 10,000. This is just finding how much water has been removed in 0.001 minutes. Let's do this:

[tex]V=10,000(0.933)^t\\V=10,000(0.933)^{0.001}\\V=9999.3065\\Now\\10,000 - 9999.3065 = 0.6935[/tex]

So, 0.6935 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

We take logarithm of both sides to base 10.

[tex]\log(4^{-5x-7})=\log(6^{2x-1})[/tex]

[tex](-5x-7)\log(4)=(2x-1)\log(6)[/tex]

Group similar terms;

[tex]-7\log(4)+\log(6)=2x\log(6)+5x\log(4)[/tex]

[tex]-7\log(4)+\log(6)=(2\log(6)+5\log(4))x[/tex]

Recall that the reciprocal of the cosine ratio is the secant ratio.

[tex]\Rightarrow \cos x=-\frac{3}{2\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

We figure out the scale factor first, which is the number of times one radius is of the other.  We call the scale factor, k.

To get how many times larger is the volume of similar spheres, we will need to cube the scale factor.

Since it is given that radius of Sphere A is 3 times that of Sphere B, we can say that the scale factor (k) = 3. Hence, the volume of Sphere A would be k^3 times the volume of Sphere B.

So,  [tex]k^3\\=(3)^3\\=27[/tex]

Hence, the volume of sphere A is 27 times the volume of sphere B.

Then, when you substitute, you obtain:

[tex]3*0.3010[/tex]≈0.9030

Factor out 8 using 2.

log(8) = log(2^3)

Use the product rule [ log(xy) = log(x) + log(y) ] to simplify.

log(2^3) = 3 log(2)

Simplify using the given value for 2.

The perimeter is the total of all the lengths / widths

The width can be represented by x

2 times the length + 2 times the width would equal the perimeter

2(x) + 2(4x - 7) = 136

Simplify:

2x + 8x - 14 = 136

10x - 14 = 136

Add 14 to both sides:

10x = 150

Divide both sides by 10:

x = 15

The width is equal to 15m

If Seven cookies are shared equally by four people how many cookies will each person get

Answers

Final answer:

Each person will get 1 cookie and there will be 3 cookies leftover.

Explanation:

In this scenario, we have 7 cookies that are being shared equally among 4 people. To find out how many cookies each person will get, we divide the total number of cookies by the number of people.

So, 7 cookies divided by 4 people = 1.75 cookies per person.

Since we can't divide a cookie into fractions, each person will get 1 cookie and there will be 3 cookies leftover.

Answers

Answer:

A) 3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a cylinder:

r - radius

H - height

We have r = 1cm and H = 21cm. Substitute:

The formula of a cone:

r - radius

H - height

We have V = 21π cm³ and H = 7cm. Substitute:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}\pi(r^2)(7)=21\pi[/tex]        divide both sides by π

[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}(7)(r^2)=21[/tex]         divide both sides by 7
