A battery with 20% percent of its full capacity is connected to a charger. Every minute that passes, an additional 5% percent of its capacity is charged. How do you graph this

Answers

Answer:

The relation between battery capacity and time is:

[tex]Y=0.05t+0.2[/tex]

The graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will graph the charged capacity of the battery in function of time.

The rate of charge is constant, so we can conclude the relation is linear.

At time t=0, the battery capacity is at 0.2 (or 20%).

Every minute that passes, an additional 5% percent of its capacity is charged. So we can say that at t=1, the battery capacity is 0.2+0.05=0.25 (or 25%).

We can calculate the slope of the linear function as:

[tex]m=\dfrac{\Delta Y}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{0.05}{1}=0.05[/tex]

Then, the relation between battery capacity and time is:

[tex]Y=0.05t+0.2[/tex]

Answers

Question Correction

A group of neighbors are constructing a community garden that is 80 meters wide and 40 meters long. The top two vertices are plotted below at (10, 70) and (90, 70). What are the coordinates for the bottom two vertices of the garden?

Answer:

(10,30) and (90,30)

Step-by-step explanation:

The community garden is 80 m wide and 40 m long.

The top two vertex are plotted at: (10, 70) and (90, 70).

Horizontal Distance =90-10=80

This serves as the Width of the garden.

Since the length is 40m, the bottom two vertex can be derived by the transformation: (x,y-40).

(x,y-40)-->(10, 70)=(10,30); and

(x,y-40)-->(90, 70)=(90,30)

The coordinates for the two bottom vertices are (10,30) and (90,30).

A company that manufactures video cameras produces a basic model and a deluxe model. Over the past year, 41% of the cameras sold have been of the basic model. Of those buying the basic model, 31% purchase an extended warranty, whereas 48% of all deluxe purchasers do so. If you learn that a randomly selected purchaser has an extended warranty, how likely is it that he or she has a basic model

Answers

Answer:

[tex]75.6\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be the event of buying a basic model.

Given that P(B) = 41%

Let D be the event of buying a basic model.

Given that P(D) = 1 - 41% = 59%

Let E be the event of extended warranty.

Given that:

P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] B) = 31% and

P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] D) = 48%

P(E) = P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] B) [tex]\times[/tex] P(B) + P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] D) [tex]\times[/tex] P(D)

P(E) = 31% [tex]\times[/tex] 41% + 48% [tex]\times[/tex] 59% = 0.4103

To find: P(B/E)

Formula:

[tex]P(B/E) = \dfrac{P(E \cap B)}{P(E)}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.31}{0.41}\\\Rightarrow 0.756\\\Rightarrow 75.6\%[/tex]

Consider the relation S(x, y) : x is a brother or sister of y on the set, H, of living humans. (For the purposes of this problem, a sibling of a person means another person with the same two parents, so don’t consider half siblings.) Determine which of the three properties, reflexive, symmetric, transitive, hold for the relation S (explain your three answers). Is S an equivalence relation on H?

Answers

Answer:

- Not reflexive

- Symmetric

- Transitive

Step-by-step explanation:

- A person is not a sibling of himself so the relation is NOT reflexive

- If a person is a sibling of an other person, the other person is a sibling of the person. Therefore the relation is SYMMETRIC

- If a person A is a sibling of B, and a person B is a sibling of C then, person A is a sibling of person C. Therefore the relation is TRANSITIVE.

A company determines that monthly sales​ S(t), in thousands of​ dollars, after t months of marketing a product is given by ​S(t)equals2 t cubed minus 45 t squared plus 180 t plus 130. ​a) Find Upper S prime​(1​), Upper S prime​(2​), and Upper S prime​(4​). ​b) Find Upper S double prime​(1​), Upper S double prime​(2​), and Upper S double prime​(4​). ​c) Interpret the meaning of your answers to parts​ (a) and​ (b).

Answers

Answer: a) S'(1) = 136; S'(2) = 104; S'(4) = 76;

b) S''(1) = -38; S''(2) = -26; S''(4) = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) S' means first derivative;

[tex]\frac{d}{dt}[/tex](6t³ - 45t² +180t +130) = 6t² - 50t + 180

S'(1) = 6.1² - 50.1 + 180

S'(1) = 136

S'(2) = 6.2² - 50.2 + 180

S'(2) = 104

S'(4) = 6.4² - 50.4 + 180

S'(4) = 76

b) S'' is the second derivative of S:

[tex]\frac{d^2}{dt^2}[/tex](6t² - 50t + 180) = 12t - 50

S''(1) = 12.1 - 50

S''(1) = -38

S''(2) = 12.2 - 50

S"(2) = -26

S"(4) = 12.6 - 50

S"(4) = -2

c) Derivative is the rate of change of a function. The first derivative is the slope of the tangent line to the graph if the function in a determined point, while the second derivative measures how the rate of change is changing.

Analysing the values, we can conclude that the sales of the product after t months is decreasing at a rate of 12.

An orange is shot up into the air with a catapult. The function h given by

h(t) = 15 + 60t – 16t2 models the orange's height, in feet, 1 seconds after it was

launched.

Question 5 What is the initial speed at which the orange is shot in the air?

Answers

Answer:

Velocity = 59 feet/second

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = 15 + 60t – 16t2

Time t = 1 second

Let's substitute time into the equation to get the distance

h(t) = 15+60(1)-16(1)²

h(t) = 15 + 60 - 16

h(t) = 59 feet

Speed or velocity = distance/time

Distance = 59 feet

Time = 1 second

Velocity = 59/1

Velocity = 59 feet/s

At a football game, a vender sold a combined total of 152 sodas and hot dogs. The number of sodas sold was three times the number of hot dogs sold. Find the number of sodas and the number of hot dogs sold.

Answers

Answer:

38 hot dogs114 sodas

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes problems of this nature are easily worked by considering groups of items. Here, it is convenient to consider a group as 1 hot dog and 3 sodas, so the number of sodas in the group is 3 times the number of hotdogs in the group.

Each group is 4 items, so 152/4 = 38 groups were sold.

In the 38 groups, there were 38 hot dogs and 3×38 = 114 sodas.

114 sodas and 38 hot dogs were sold.

Answers

Answer:

x = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the angles are equal  ( bisected means divided in half)

2x-5 = 145

Add 5 to each side

2x-5+5 = 145+5

2x = 150

Divide by 2

2x/150/2

x = 75

Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

∠BAD is bisected by AC and measurement of BAC is equal to 2x - 5 and measurement of CAD is equal to 145. Since they are bisected, they are equal and the solution is shown below:

m ∠ BAC = m ∠ CAD

2x - 5 = 145 , transpose -5 to the opposite side such as:

2x = 145 + 5 , perform addition of 145 and 5

2x = 150

2x / 2 = 150 / 2 , divide both sides by 2

x = 75

The answer is 75 for the x value.

A recent research show that only 40% of the customers are willing to pay more for the service. Now we have selected 10 customers randomly. What are the expected value and standard deviation

Answers

Answer:

The expected number of customers that pay more for the service is 4 and the standard deviation is 1.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are willing to pay more for the service, or they are not. Customers are independent. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

40% of the customers are willing to pay more for the service.

This means that [tex]p = 0.4[/tex]

Now we have selected 10 customers randomly.

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

What are the expected value and standard deviation

[tex]E(X) = np = 10*0.4 = 4[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{10*0.4*0.6} = 1.55[/tex]

The expected number of customers that pay more for the service is 4 and the standard deviation is 1.55.

The relationship of variance and mean informs researchers about the spread of data. If a researcher calculates the mean abundance per unit area of a species, and then calculates the variance, the relationship between mean and variance will reflect the distribution pattern.
Which distribution pattern pictured below will have variance greater than the mean?

Answers

Answer:

The distribution pattern that will have variance greater than mean is one where the population of species is clustered and thus far from the mean abundance of species per unit area.

This distribution pattern can be found, using the POISSON distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variance is a measure of dispersion while Mean is a measure of central tendency.

The mean is the average of all values (in this case, the abundance or concentration of species per unit area). It is the sum total of all values, divided by the number of values there are.

The variance of a given set of data, on the other hand, is a measure of the spread or distance or dispersal of the data from the mean. It measures the spread between each datum/value and the mean value.

The relationship between mean and variance surely reflects the pattern that the distribution will take. The kind of distribution pattern that will have a greater variance than mean is a Poisson distribution. Sample size is usually large here. Since the variance is greater than the mean, the population is a clustered or clumped distribution.

Write an integral for the area of the surface generated by revolving the curve y equals cosine (2 x )about the​ x-axis on negative StartFraction pi Over 5 EndFraction less than or equals x less than or equals StartFraction pi Over 5 EndFraction .

Answers

Answer:

The integral is

∫ˣ²ₓ₁ 2π cos 2x √[1 + 4 sin² 2x] dx

x₁ = (-π/5)

x₂ = (π/5)

And the area of the surface generated by revolving = 9.71 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

When a function y = f(x) is revolved about the x-axis, the formula for the area of the surface generated is given by

A = 2π ∫ˣ²ₓ₁ f(x) √[1 + (f'(x))²] dx

A = 2π ∫ˣ²ₓ₁ y √[1 + y'²] dx

For this question,

y = cos 2x

x₁ = (-π/5)

x₂ = (π/5)

y' = -2 sin 2x

1 + y'² = 1 + (-2 sin 2x)² = (1 + 4 sin² 2x)

So, the Area of the surface of revolution is

A = 2π ∫ˣ²ₓ₁ y √[1 + y'²] dx

= ∫ˣ²ₓ₁ 2πy √[1 + y'²] dx

Substituting these variables

A = ∫ˣ²ₓ₁ 2π cos 2x √[1 + 4 sin² 2x] dx

Let 2 sin 2x = t

4 cos 2x dx = dt

2 Cos 2x dx = (dt/2)

dx = (1/2cos 2x)(dt/2)

Since t = 2 sin 2x

when x = (-π/5), t = 2 sin (-2π/5) = -1.90

when x = (π/5), t = 2 sin (2π/5) = 1.90

A

= ∫¹•⁹⁰₋₁.₉₀ π (2 Cos 2x) √(1 + t²) (1/2cos 2x)(dt/2)

= ∫¹•⁹⁰₋₁.₉₀ (π/2) √(1 + t²) (dt)

= (π/2) ∫¹•⁹⁰₋₁.₉₀ √(1 + t²) (dt)

But note that

∫ √(a² + x²) dx

= (x/2) √(a² + x²) + (a²/2) In |x + √(a² + x²)| + c

where c is the constant of integration

So,

∫ √(1 + t²) dt

= (t/2) √(1 + t²) + (1/2) In |t + √(1 + t²)| + c

∫¹•⁹⁰₋₁.₉₀ √(1 + t²) (dt)

= [(t/2) √(1 + t²) + (1/2) In |t + √(1 + t²)|]¹•⁹⁰₋₁.₉₀

= [(1.90/2) √(1 + 1.90²)+ 0.5In |1.90+√(1 + 1.90²)|] - [(-1.9/2) √(1 + -1.9²) + (1/2) In |-1.9 + √(1 + -1.9²)|]

= [(0.95×2.147) + 0.5 In |1.90 + 2.147|] - [(-0.95×2.147) + 0.5 In |-1.90 + 2.147|]

= [2.04 + 0.5 In 4.047] - [-2.04 + 0.5 In 0.247]

= [2.04 + 0.70] - [-2.04 - 1.4]

= 2.74 - [-3.44]

= 2.74 + 3.44

= 6.18

Area = (π/2) ∫¹•⁹⁰₋₁.₉₀ √(1 + t²) (dt)

= (π/2) × 6.18

= 9.71 square units.

How many solutions does the system have? y = -2x-4 \\\\ y = 3x+3

Answers

Answer:

The system has one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two equations:

y = -2x - 4

y = 3x + 3

Equalling them:

y = y

-2x - 4 = 3x + 3

5x = -7

[tex]x = -\frac{7}{5}[/tex]

And

[tex]y = 3x + 3 = 3(-\frac{7}{5}) + 3 = \frac{-21}{5} + 3 = \frac{-21}{5} + \frac{15}{5} = -\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

Replacing in the other equation we should get the same result.

[tex]y = -2x - 4 = -2(-\frac{7}{5}) - 4 = \frac{14}[5} - 4 = \frac{14}{4} - \frac{20}{5} = -\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

So the system has one solution.
