Lindsey bought a new candle and the base of the candle covers an area of 19.625 square inches. She plans on putting the candle i

nto a bowl
with a radius of 2 inches but isn't sure that is will fit. She calculates the radius of the candle to be 1.5 inches and thinks it will fit, but her
friend Amy says the radius is 2.5 inches and that it is too large for the bowl. Who is correct and will the candle fit in the bowl?

Answer:

-Amy

-The candle will fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

-The candle has a circular base of area 19.625\ in^2

-The area of a circle is given by the formula:

A=\pi r^2

#We substitute the candle's base area in the formula to solve for the bowl's radius;

A=\pi r^2\\\\19.625=\pi r^2\\\\\\r=\sqrt{\frac{19.625}{\pi}}\\\\=2.499a\approx 2.5\ inches

The candle has a base radius of approximately 2.5 inches which is equivalent to the bowl's radius.

Hence, Amy is correct and yes, the candle will fit as it is approximately of similar radius.

Expand (2x-3y)^4 using Pascal's Triangle. Show work
deff fn [24]
(2x+3y)⁴
1) let 2x = a   and 3y = b

(a+b)⁴ = a⁴ + a³b + a²b² + ab³ + b⁴
Now let's find the coefficient of each factor using Pascal Triangle
     
                     0     |               1
                     1     |            1    1
                     2     |          1   2   1
                     3     |         1  3   3   1
                     4     |       1  4   6    4  1

0,1,2,3,4,.. represent the exponents of binomials 
Since our binomial has a 4th exponents, the coefficients are respectively:

(1)a⁴ + (4)a³b + (6)a²b² + (4)ab³ + (1)b⁴
Now replace a and b by their real values in (1):

2⁴x⁴ +(4)8x³(3y) + (6)(2²x²)(3²y²) + (4)(2x)(3³y³) + (1)(3⁴)(y⁴)

16x⁴ + 96x³y + 216x²y² + 216xy³ + 81y⁴

The population of Smalltown in the year 1890 was 6,250. Since then, it has increased at a rate of 3.75% each year. • What was th
Vikki [24]

Answer:

  • year 1915 :   15,689
  • year 1940 :  39,381

t = 137.9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:

A = P (1 + r) t  

Where:

p = original population

r = growing rate (decimal form)

t= years

A = population after t years

Replacing with the values given:

A = 6,250 (1 + 3.75/100)^t

A = 6,250 (1 + 0.0375)^t

A = 6,250 (1.0375)^t

  • So, by the year 1915 :

1915-1890 = 25 years passed (t)

A = 6,250 (1.0375)^25

A = 15,689

  • by the year 1940 :

1940-1890 = 50 years passed (t)

A = 6,250 (1.0375)^50

A = 39,381

  • When will the population reach 1,000,000?. We have to subtitute A=1000000 and solve for t.

1,000,000= 6,250 (1.0375)^t

1,000,000/ 6,250 =(1.0375)^t

160 = 1.0375^t

log 160 = log 1.0375^t

log 160 = (t ) log 1.0375

log160 / log 1.0375= t

t = 137.9 years
