Answer 1

Complete question :

In one year, the population of Douglas, the former copper mining town on the U.S.-Mexico border, shrunk by 200. Over the last ten years, the town’s population is going down at an average rate of 1.16% per year. Douglas’ current population in November 2020 is 15,140. a. Write an equation to model the population decay of Douglas using the data given. b. If the town’s population loss continues to occur at this rate, what will the population of Douglas in 6 months from now? Round your answer to the nearest integer. c. If the town’s population loss continues to occur at this rate, what will the population of Douglas in one year? Round your answer to the nearest integer. d. If the town’s population loss continues to occur at this rate, what will the population of Douglas in November 2027? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

Answer:

15052 ; 14,964 ; 13953

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rate of population decline = 1.16% annually

Population in November 2020 = 15140

A = I(1 - r)^t

Where ;

A = final population

I = initial population

r = rate of decline

t = number of years

Population in 6 months

t = 6 months = 0.5 year, r = 1.16% = 0.0116

A = 15140(1 - 0.0116)^0.5

A = 15140(0.9884)^0.5

A = 15051.931

A = 15052 ( nearest integer)

Population after 1 year :

A = 15140(1 - 0.0116)^1

A = 15140(0.9884)^1

A = 14964.376

A = 14964 ( nearest integer)

Population in 2027:

t = 2027 - 2020

A = 15140(1 - 0.0116)^7

A = 15140(0.9884)^7

A = 13952.596

A = 13953 ( nearest integer)

Carol gets paid $10 per hour to work as a lifeguard this weekend she worked on both Saturday and Sunday she made a total of $80 girl worked for five hours on Saturday for how many hours did she work on Sunday

Answers

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Earnings = \$10[/tex] per hour

[tex]Total\ Earnings = \$80[/tex]

Required

Determine the number of hours worked on Sunday

If she works for 5 hours on Saturday, then her Saturday earnings is:

[tex]Saturday\ Earnings= \$10 * 5[/tex]

[tex]Saturday\ Earnings= \$50[/tex]

Her earnings on Sunday is Total Earnings - Saturday Earnings. So, we have:

[tex]Sunday\ Earnings = Total\ Earnings - Saturday\ Earnings[/tex]

[tex]Sunday\ Earnings = \$80 - \$50[/tex]

[tex]Sunday\ Earnings = \$30[/tex]

Number of hours worked is calculated by dividing earnings by earnings per hour.

So:

[tex]Hours = \frac{\$30}{\$10}[/tex]

[tex]Hours = 3[/tex]

Hence, she worked for 3 hour

Mrs. Allen a high school teacht is grading quizzes and tests this weekend she has at most 4 hours or 240 minutes to spend grading and she would like to get at least 60 quizzes and tests graded on average it takes her 3 minutes to grade each quiz and 8 minutes to grade each test

Answers

Answer:

(55,9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Write one inequality to represent the number of quizzes and tests Mrs. Allen must grade and one inequality to represent the number of minutes it will take her to grade the quizzes and tests.

Mrs. Allen must grade at least 60 quizzes and tests, so the sum of x and y must be greater than or equal to 60.

On average, it takes Mrs. Allen 3 minutes to grade each quiz and 8 minutes to grade each test. So, the total number of minutes it takes her to grade x quizzes is 3x minutes, and the total number of minutes it takes her to grade y tests is 8y minutes. Since she has at most 240 minutes to spend grading, the sum of 3x and 8y must be less than or equal to 240.

The solution set to the system of these linear inequalities represents the numbers of quizzes and tests Mrs. Allen can grade this weekend.

Now, consider each of the coordinate points. In order to be a solution to this system of inequalities, both inequalities must be satisfied by the values of x and y. When x = 55 and y = 9, both inequalities are satisfied. To confirm, substitute these values of x and y into the first inequality.

Now substitute the values into the second inequality.

Therefore, the only point that lies in the solution set is (55,9).

After solving the equation, b will equal -16/3 making the final equation be

If a 30 foot ladder is positioned so that the bottom of the ladder is 1/4 of its length away from the wall, what angle does the ladder make with the ground

Answers

Answer:

[tex]75.52^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The length of the ladder = 30 ft

Distance between bottom of ladder and wall = [tex]\frac{1}{4}^{th}[/tex] of its length

To find:

Angle made between the ladder and ground = ?

Solution:

This situation can be compared with a right angled [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] as shown in the attached image in the answer area.

Side AC being the hypotenuse has the ladder along it.

AB is the wall.

BC is the distance between the wall and foot of ladder.

Formula for cosine trigonometric ratio:

[tex]cos\theta = \dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

In [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex]:

[tex]cosC=\dfrac{BC}{AC}[/tex]

Putting the values:

[tex]BC=\dfrac{AC}{4}[/tex]

[tex]cosC=\dfrac{\frac{AC}4}{AC}\\\Rightarrow cos C = \dfrac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow \angle C = cos^{-1}(0.25)\\\Rightarrow \angle C =\bold{75.52^\circ}[/tex]

Susan is 5.5 ft tall and casts a shadow that it is 4 ft long on the ground. She is walking through a park and finds the shadow of a sculpture is 16 ft long. How tall is the sculpture?

Answers

Answer:

22 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of Susan/Length of shadow = Height of sculpture/Length of Shadow of sculpture

5.5 ft/4 ft = x/16ft

Cross Multiply

4 × x = 5.5 × 16

x = 5.5 × 16/4

x = 22 ft

The height of the sculpture is 22 ft
