The population of a certain community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. If the population has doubled in 5 years, how long will it take to triple?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]t=7.85 years[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write this rate as an ordinary differential equation.

[tex]\frac{dP}{dt}=aP[/tex]

Where a is proportional constant, P the population variable, and t the time.

[tex]\frac{dP}{P}=adt[/tex]

Integrating each side of the equation.

[tex]\int \frac{dP}{P}=\int adt[/tex]

[tex]ln(P)=at+c[/tex]

[tex]P=e^{at+c}[/tex]

[tex]P=e^{c}e^{at}=Ce^{at}[/tex]

To find C we need to use the initial condiction, it means evaluae P at t=0.

[tex]P_{0}=Ce^{0}=C[/tex]

[tex]P=P_{0}e^{at}[/tex]

Now, we use the sentence  the population has doubled in 5 years.

[tex]2P_{0}=P_{0}e^{a5}[/tex]

We can find "a" in this condition.

[tex]2=e^{a5}[/tex]

[tex]ln(2)=a5[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{ln(2)}{5}[/tex]

[tex]a=0.14[/tex]

Finally, let's find how long will it take to triple.

[tex]3P_{0}=P_{0}e^{0.14t}[/tex]

[tex]3=e^{0.14t}[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{ln(3)}{0.14}[/tex]

[tex]t=7.85 years[/tex]

I hope it helps you!

George lost 12 1/4 kilograms on his diet. How
many grams did he lose?

Answers

12250 grams. i converted it to a decimal the moved it 3 spots to the right

Answer: 12250 Grams

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Kilogram = 1000 grams.

12 Kilograms x 1000 Grams = 12000 Grams.

1/4 = 0.25

0.25 Kilograms x 100 Grams = 250 Grams

12000 + 250 = 12250.

Answer: 12250 Grams.

10. One number is twenty more than eight times another number. The sum of the
numbers is eleven. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Answer:

the two numbers are 12 and -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the large number be represented by x and the smaller number by y.

So that;

x = 8y + 20 .................. 1

x + y = 11 ................... 2

From equation 2,

x = 11 - y .......... 3

Substitute equation 3 into equation 1 to have,

11 - y = 8y + 20

11 - 20 = 8y + y

-9 = 9y

divide through by 9 to have,

y = -1

Substitute the value of y in equation 3,

x = 11 - (-1)

  = 11 + 1

  = 12

x = 12

x = 12, y = -1

The two numbers are 12 and -1.

Wyatt is saving up to buy a new bicycle. He already has $60 and can save an
additional $6 per week using money from his after school job. How much total money
would Wyatt have after 6 weeks of saving? Also, write an expression that represents
the amount of money Wyatt would have saved in w weeks.

Answers

Answer:

Expression: 6w+$60 Money: $99

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's find the ammount for 6 weeks

We know he can make $6 per week, so we ned to multiply 6*$6 to get your answer

So, 6 ( weeks ) * 6 ( dollars) = $36 for 6 weeks

Then, we ned to add the $60 he already has saved up, so $60+$39=$99

For the equation, We know that we need to multioply the number of weeks by 6, as shown by how we solved the last problem

So, 6*w=6w

Then we need to add $60

So, we get 6w+$60 for the expression

A square has a area of 4m^2. What is the length of each side?

Answers

Answer: If by m you mean meters and not a variable, then you get 4 for the length of the sides. If you mean m as a variable, then the answer is 2m

Step-by-step explanation: First simplify the equation by squaring 4. This gives you the area, which is 16. Then take the square root of 16 to get the area, which is 4. If m is a variable in the equation then you must take the square root of  (4m^2) and the answer you get for the side length you get is 2m

(504-300+800) x 100 / 3?

Answers

Answer:

  [1]    x - 6y = 3

  [2]    x + 2y = 5

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

   -6y + x = 3        2y + x = 5  

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

 [2]    x = -2y + 5

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    (-2y+5) - 6y = 3

  [1]     - 8y = -2

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

  [1]    8y = 2

  [1]    y = 1/4

// By now we know this much :

   x = -2y+5

   y = 1/4

// Use the y  value to solve for  x

   x = -2(1/4)+5 = 9/2

Solution :

{x,y} = {9/2,1/4}

Find the equation for the circle with center (3,−5) and diameter of length 8.

Answers

Answer:

(x-3)² + (y+5)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius will be half of diameter means that radius = r = 8/2 = 4.

With Center (h,k) the equation of circle is

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

so by putting values answer will be

(x-3)² + (y+5)² = 4²

(x-3)² + (y+5)² = 16
