The grain is pumped out of a full-grain silo into a barge at a rate of 9 cubic meters per minute. The silo holds 2000 cubic meters of grain. Let y be the cubic meters remaining in the silo after x minutes. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that models the amount of grain in the silo.
How would I solve this?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:   y = -9x+2000

=========================================================

Explanation:

x = number of minutes

y = amount of grain left over, in cubic meters

We can abbreviate "cubic meters" into "m^3" without quotes of course.

The silo holds 2000 m^3 of grain. This is the initial value, so it is the y intercept. This means b = 2000. If the silo wasn't completely full, then we'd have to use a different initial value.

The slope is -9 because the amount of grain decreases by 9 cubic meters per minute. We can think of it like

slope = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x)

slope = (change in grain)/(change in time)

Saying slope = -9/1 means the change in grain is -9 m^3 and the change in time is 1 minute.

Because the slope is -9, we say that m = -9

Therefore, we go from y = mx+b to y = -9x+2000

-------------------

Note how plugging x = 0 into the equation leads to

y = -9x+2000

y = -9*0+2000

y = 0 + 2000

y = 2000

Showing that after 0 minutes, aka at the start, we have 2000 m^3 of grain.

Then at the x = 1 minute mark, we have...

y = -9x+2000

y = -9*1+2000

y = -9+2000

y = 1991

Showing that the silo lost 9 m^3 of grain since 2000-1991 = 9.

The graph y = -9x+2000 is a straight line that goes through the two points (0,2000) and (1,1991).

B) 166.2 km2
C) 173.8 km2
D) 182.4 km2
E) 189.1 km2

explain pls

Answers

Answer:

Option C : 173.8 km² is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Side length = 6 kilometers

A shape with 8 sides is called an octagon, therefore, the given figure is an octagon.

Area of octagon is given by;

Area = [tex]2(1+\sqrt{2})a^2[/tex]

Putting a=6

Area = [tex]2(1+\sqrt{2})(6)^2[/tex]

Area = [tex](2+2\sqrt{2})(36)[/tex]

Area = 173.82

Rounding off to one decimal place

Area = 173.8 km²

Hence,

Option C : 173.8 km² is the correct answer.

use natural logarithms to solve the equation. round to the nearest thousandth. show work!! 5e^(2x+11) =30

Answers

Answer:

x = -4.604

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of x

We start by dividing through by 5

e^(2x + 11) = 30/5

e^(2x + 11) = 6

Writing this in natural logarithm form, we have;

ln 6 = 2x + 11

2x + 11 = 1.792

2x = 1.792-11

2x = -9.208

x = -9.208/2

x = -4.604

The value of x from the given equation is

x=-4.604

Given :

[tex]5e^{2x+11} =30[/tex]

To solve for x , we need to get exponent 'e' alone

First we divide both sides by 5

[tex]e^{2x+11} =6[/tex]

Now we write the given exponent in logarithmic form

Lets take ln on both sides

[tex]lne^{2x+11} =ln6\\(2x+11)lne=ln(6)\\[/tex]

The value of ln(e) is 1

[tex](2x+11)=ln(6)\\2x+11=ln(6)\\subtract \; 11 \; on \; both \; sides\\2x=ln(6)-11\\Divide \; both \; sides \; by \; 2\\x=\frac{ln(6)-11}{2} \\x=-4.60412[/tex]

The value of x from the given equation is

x=-4.604

What is the approximate area of

A. 78 square inches
B. 157 square inches
C. 491 square inches
D. 1,963 square inches

Answers

Answer:

D. 1,963 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula of the area of the circle A= [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex] and assuming that the radius is 25 inches.

Then,

A = [tex]\pi[/tex](25 inches)^2

A = (3.14)(25inches)^2

A = 1,963 square inches

However, you did not state that r = 25 inches, so this might not be correct, but  good luck and I hope this helps a little!

After examining daily receipts over the past year, it was found that the green parrot italian restaurant has been grossing over $2200 a day for about 85% of it's business days.

Answers

Complete question is;

After examining daily receipts over the past year, it was found that the green parrot italian restaurant has been grossing over $2200 a day for about 85% of it's business days. Using this as a reasonably accurate measure, find the probability that the green parrot will gross over $2200:

A. At least 5 of the next 7 business days.

B. at least 5 of the next 10 business days.

C. less than 3 of the next 5 business days.

d. Exactly 7 of the next 10 business days

e. At least 1 of the next 5 business days.

Answer:

A) P(X ≥ 5) = 0.9262

B) P(X ≥ 5) = 0.9986

C) P(X ≤ 2) = 0.0266

D) P(X = 7) = 0.1298

E) P(X ≥ 1) = 0.9999

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability distribution problem and as such we will use the formula;

P(X = k) = C(n, k) × p^(k) × (1 - p)^(n - k)

A. At least 5 of the next 7 business days will be;

P (X ≥ 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)

P(X = 5) = C(7, 5) × 0.85^(5) × (1 - 0.85)^(7 - 5)

P(X = 5) = 0.20965

P(X = 6) = C(7, 6) × 0.85^(6) × (1 - 0.85)^(7 - 6)

P(X = 6) = 0.396

P(X = 7) = C(7, 7) × 0.85^(7) × (1 - 0.85)^(7 - 7)

P(X = 7) = 0.320577

Thus;

P(X ≥ 5) = 0.20965 + 0.396 + 0.320577

P(X ≥ 5) = 0.9262

B. Probability of at least 5 of the next 10 business days will be;

P(X ≥ 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)

From online binomial calculator attached, we can see that the answer is;

P(X ≥ 5) = 0.9986

C. Probability of less than 3 of the next 5 business days will be;

P(X ≤ 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

From online binomial calculator attached, we can see that the answer is;

P(X ≤ 2) = 0.0266

D. Probability of exactly 7 of the next 10 business days will be;

P(X = 7) = C(10, 7) × 0.85^(7) × (1 - 0.85)^(10 - 7)

P(X = 7) = 0.1298

e. Probability of at least 1 of the next 5 business days will be;

P(X ≥ 1) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)

From third image attached using online binomial calculator, we have;

P(X ≥ 1) = 0.9999

A board is 48 in long. It must be divided into 4 pieces of equal length, and each cut will cause a waste of 3/16 in. How long will each piece be after the cuts are made?

Answers

Answer:

12 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the board = 48 in

It must be divided into 4 pieces of equal length

This means, there will be 3 cut to have 4 pieces

Each cut will cause a waste of 3/16 in.

Total waste = 3 cut × 3/16 in

= (3*3)/16

= 9/16 in

Length of board remaining = Total length of the board - Total waste

= 48 - 9/16

= (768-9)/16

= 759/16 in

How long will each piece be after the cuts are made?

Length of each piece after the cut = Length of board remaining / 4

= 759/16 ÷ 4

= 759/16 × 1/4

= 759/64

= 11.859375

Approximately 12 pieces to the nearest whole number

Yes. The ratios of towers to customers​ (thousands) are all equivalent to a unit rate of nothing. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

What is a proportional relationship?

Proportional relationships are relationships between two variables where their ratios are equivalent.

The given table is

Cell Phone Towers          Customers​ (thousands) Towers

        3.25                                          169

        4.25                                          221

        5.25                                          273

        7.25                                          377

Here, the ratio of Cell Phone Towers : Customers​ (thousands) Towers

3.25 : 169

= 325/16900

= (325÷325)/(16900÷325)

= 1/52

4.25 : 221

= 425/22100

= 1/52

5.25 : 273

= 525/27300

= 1/52

7.25 : 377

= 725/37700

= 1/52

Therefore, the ratio of given cell phone towers to customers​ (thousands) towers are equivalent.
