The rate is 274m/17s = 16.1176m/s
can you solve for x and y y=4x-11=x+13
x = 8, y = 21
Explanations:The given equation is:
y = 4x - 11 = x + 13
This can be splitted into two equations as:
y = 4x - 11..........(1)
y = x + 13..........(2)
Substitute equation (1) into equation (2)
4x - 11 = x + 13
4x - x = 13 + 11
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8
Substitute the value of x into equation (1)
y = 4x - 11
y = 4(8) - 11
y = 32 - 11
y = 21
x = 8, y = 21

40807 cm³/min
EXPLANATION
The tank has the shape of a cone, with a total height of 9 meters and a diameter of 3.5 m - so the radius, which is half the diameter, is 1.75 m. As we can see, the relationship between the height of the cone and the radius is,
[tex]\frac{r}{h}=\frac{1.75m}{9m}=\frac{7}{36}\Rightarrow r=\frac{7}{36}h[/tex]So the volume of water will be given by,
[tex]V(h)=\frac{1}{3}(\pi r^2)h=\frac{1}{3}\cdot\pi\cdot\frac{7^2}{36^2}h^2\cdot h=\frac{49\pi}{3888}h^3[/tex]Where h is the height of the water (not the tank).
If we derive this equation, we will find the rate at which the volume of water is changing with time,
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{49\pi}{3888}\cdot3h^{3-1}=\frac{49\pi}{3888}\cdot3h^2=\frac{49\pi}{1296}h^2[/tex]We want to know what is the change of volume with respect to time, and this is,
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{dV}{dt}\cdot\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]Because the height also changes with time. We know that this change is 24 cm per minute when the height of the water in the tank is 1 meter (or 100 cm), so we have,
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{49\pi}{1296}h^2\cdot\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{49\pi}{1296}\cdot100^2cm^2\cdot\frac{24cm}{1min}\approx28507cm^3/min[/tex]This is the rate at which the water is increasing in the tank. However, we know that there is a leak at a rate of 12300 cm³/min, which means that in fact the water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of,
[tex]28507cm^3/min+12300cm^3/min=40807cm^3/min[/tex]Hence, the water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of 40807 cm³/min, rounded to the nearest whole cm³/min.
22The value of the hypotenuse in the right triangle shown isinches.14 in48 inFigure not drawn to scale
SOL
Step 1 :
In this question, we are meant to find the value of
the hypotenuse in the right angle below:
Before, we proceed, we still need to remind ourselves of Pythagoras' theorem,
Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides“.
Step 2 :
From the above theorem, we can see that that the two adjacent sides are :
14 inches and 48 inches.
From the principle of Pythagoras' Theorem,
[tex]\begin{gathered} c^2=a^2+b^2 \\ \text{where a = 14 inches} \\ b\text{ = 48 inches} \\ c^2=14^2+48^2 \\ c^2\text{ = ( 14 x 14 ) + ( 48 x 48 )} \\ c^2\text{ = 196 + 2304} \\ c^2\text{ = 2500} \\ \text{square root both sides, we have that :} \\ c\text{ = 50 inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]
CONCLUSION :
The value of the hypotenuse in the Right angle, c = 50 inches.
Which function has the greatest average rate of change on the interval [1,5]
Answer:
Explanation:
Given: interval [1,5]
Based on the given functions, we start by computing the function values at each endpoint of the interval.
For:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=4x^2 \\ f(1)=4(1)^2 \\ =4 \\ f(5)=4(5)^2 \\ =100 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Now we compute the average rate of change.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Average rate of change = }\frac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1} \\ =\frac{100-4}{5-1} \\ \text{Calculate} \\ =24 \end{gathered}[/tex]For:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=4x^3 \\ f(1)=4(1)^3 \\ =4 \\ f(5)=4(5)^3 \\ =500 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Average rate of change = }\frac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1} \\ =\frac{500-4}{5-1} \\ =124 \end{gathered}[/tex]For:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=4^x \\ f(1)=4^1 \\ =4 \\ f(5)=4^5 \\ =1024 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Average rate of change = }\frac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1} \\ =\frac{1024-4}{5-1} \\ =255 \end{gathered}[/tex]For:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=4\sqrt[]{x} \\ f(1)=4\sqrt[]{1} \\ =4 \\ f(5)\text{ = 4}\sqrt[]{5} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Average rate of change = }\frac{f(5)-f(1)}{5-1} \\ =\frac{(4\sqrt[]{5\text{ }})\text{ -4}}{5-1}\text{ } \\ =1.24 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the function that has the greatest average rate is
[tex]y=4^x[/tex]A hiker on the Appalachian Trail planned to increase the distance covered by 10% each day. After 7 days, the total distance traveled is 75.897 miles.
part A. We are given that a hiker will increase the distance covered by 10% each day. Let "S" be the distance, then on the first day the distance is:
[tex]S_1[/tex]On the second day, we must add 10% of the first day, we get:
[tex]S_1=S_1+\frac{10}{100}S_1[/tex]Simplifying we get:
[tex]S_2=S_1+0.1S_1=1.1S_1[/tex]On the third day, we add 10% of the second day, we get:
[tex]S_3=S_2+0.1S_2=1.1S_2=(1.1)(1.1)S_1=(1.1)^2S_1[/tex]On the fourth day, we add 10% of the third day, we get:
[tex]S_4=S_3+0.1S_3=1.1S_3=(1.1)^3S_1[/tex]If we continue this pattern and we set "n" as the number of days, then a formula for the distance after "n" days is:
[tex]S_n=(1.1)^{n-1}S_1[/tex]Now, we are given that for n = 7 the distance is 75897, therefore, we substitute n = 7 in the formula:
[tex]S_7=(1.1)^{7-1}S_1[/tex]Substituting the value of the distance:
[tex]75897=(1.1)^{7-1}S_1[/tex]Now we can solve for S1, we do that by dividing both sides by 1.1 together with its
exponent:
[tex]\frac{75897}{(1.1)^{7-1}}=S_1[/tex]Now we solve the operations:
[tex]\frac{75897}{(1.1)^6}=S_1[/tex]Solving the operations:
[tex]42842=S_1[/tex]Therefore, the distance the first day was 42842 miles.
part B. The formula for Sn is the given previously but we replace the known value of S1:
[tex]S_n=42842(1.1)^{n-1}[/tex]Part C. To determine the distance after 10 days, we substitute the value n = 10 in the formula, we get:
[tex]S_{10}=42842(1.1)^{10-1}[/tex]Solving the operations we get:
[tex]S_{10}=101019.19[/tex]Therefore, the distance after 10 days is 101019.19 miles.

Yoonie is a personnel manager in a large corporation. Each month she must review 16 of the employees. From past experience, she has found that the reviews take her approximately four hours each to do with a population standard deviation of 1.2 hours. Let X be the random variable representing the time it takes her to complete one review. Assume X is normally distributed. Let X be the random variable representing the mean time to complete the 16 reviews. Assume that the 16 reviews represent a random set of reviews.
Find the probability that the mean of a month's reviews will take Yoonie from 3.5 to 4.25 hrs.
a. Give the probability statement and the probability. (Enter exact numbers as integers, fractions, or decimals for the probability statement. Round the probability to four decimal places.
Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, the probability that the mean of a month's reviews will take Yoonie from 3.5 to 4.25 hrs is:
[tex]P(3.5 \leq \bar{X} \leq 4.25) = 0.7482[/tex]
Normal Probability DistributionThe z-score of a measure X of a variable that has mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by the rule presented as follows:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure X is above or below the mean of the distribution, depending if the z-score is positive or negative.From the z-score table, the p-value associated with the z-score is found, and it represents the percentile of the measure X in the distribution.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].The mean and the standard deviation of each review are given as follows:
[tex]\mu = 4, \sigma = 1.2[/tex]
For the sampling distribution of sample means of size 16, the standard error is given as follows:
[tex]s = \frac{1.2}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.3[/tex]
The probability that the mean of a month's reviews will take Yoonie from 3.5 to 4.25 hrs is the p-value of Z when X = 4.25 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 3.5, hence:
X = 4.25:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Z = (4.25 - 4)/0.3
Z = 0.83.
Z = 0.83 has a p-value of 0.7967.
X = 3.5:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Z = (3.5 - 4)/0.3
Z = -1.67.
Z = -1.67 has a p-value of 0.0475.
Hence the probability is:
0.7967 - 0.0485 = 0.7482.
The statement is:
[tex]P(3.5 \leq \bar{X} \leq 4.25)[/tex]

The distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel can be modeled by the equation d equals 20 times the sine of the quantity pi over 30 times t end quantity plus 10 comma where d represents the distance, in feet, of the person above the ground after t seconds. How long will it take for the Ferris wheel to make one revolution?
We have the function d, representing the distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel:
[tex]d(t)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)+10[/tex]If we consider the position of the person at t = 0, which is:
[tex]d(0)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}\cdot0)+10=20\cdot0+10=10[/tex]This position, for t = 0, will be the same position as when the argument of the sine function is equal to 2π, which is equivalent to one cycle of the wheel. Then, we can find the value of t:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)=\sin (2\pi) \\ \frac{\pi}{30}\cdot t=2\pi \\ t=2\pi\cdot\frac{30}{\pi} \\ t=60 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the wheel will repeat its position after t = 60 seconds.

Because x is continuous, we should use interval notation, the domain is:
D: [1, ∞)
How to find the domain?For a function y = f(x), we define the domain as the set of possible inputs of the function (possible values of x).
To identify the domain, we need to look at the horizontal axis. The minimum value is the one we can see in the left side, and the maximum is the one we could see on the right side.
There we can see that the domain starts at x = 1 and extends to the left, so the notation we can use for the domain is:
D: x ≥ 1
We know that the value x =1 belongs because there is a closed dot there.
The correct option is A, because the domain is continuous (as we can see in the graph), we should use interval notation. In this case the domain can be written as:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{3.5}{100}x+\frac{0}{100}y=\frac{2}{100}(x+y) \\ \frac{3.5}{100}x=\frac{2}{100}(x+y) \end{gathered}[/tex]Multiply by 100 on both sides to get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3.5x=2(x+y) \\ 3.5x=2x+2y \\ 1.5x=2y \\ x=\frac{2}{1.5}y \\ x=\frac{2\times2}{1.5\times2}y \\ x=\frac{4}{3}y \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute the value of (ii) in (i) to get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=3 \\ \frac{4}{3}y+y=3 \\ \frac{4+3}{3}y=3 \\ \frac{7}{3}y=3 \\ \frac{3}{7}\times\frac{7}{3}y=\frac{3}{7}\times3 \\ y=\frac{9}{7} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the quantity of 0% milk is 9/7 cups.
The quantity of 3.5% milk is given by:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{4}{3}y \\ x=\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{9}{7} \\ x=\frac{12}{7} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the quantity of 3.5% milk is 12/7 cups.
