Answer:

With every other lever 10% of the energy with be transferred. In this case:  Primary Producers (500) 1) First- level consumer. (50)  2) Second-level consumer. (5) 3) Third- level consumer. (0.5) Remember the formula is:(Primary Producer) __units X 10%= __500 units X 10%= 50

50 units of energy will be the first level consumers stored.  

5 units of energy will be the second level consumers stored.

<span>The number of dollars collected can be modelled by both a linear model and an exponential model. To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on a linear model, we recall that the formula for the equation of a line is given by (y - y1) / (x - x1) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) = (1, 2) and (x2, y2) = (3, 8) The equation of the line representing the model = (y - 2) / (x - 1) = (8 - 2) / (3 - 1) = 6 / 2 = 3 y - 2 = 3(x - 1) = 3x - 3 y = 3x - 3 + 2 = 3x - 1 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the linear model is given by y = 3(6) - 1 = 18 - 1 = $17 To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on an exponential model, we recall that the formula for exponential growth is given by y = ar^(x-1), where y is the number of dollars collected and x represent each collection day and a is the amount collected on the first day = $2. 8 = 2r^(3 - 1) = 2r^2 r^2 = 8/2 = 4 r = sqrt(4) = 2 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the exponential model is given by y = 2(2)^(5 - 1) = 2(2)^4 = 2(16) = $32</span>

Which ordered pair minimizes the objective function C = 60x + 85y?. (0, 160). (55, 70). (80, 50). (170, 0)
dangina [55]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given objective function is C = 60x + 85y

To check that which ordered pair is minimizing the objective function-we will substitute all the ordered pair one by one in the given function and we will calculate the value of C. The ordered pair which will give the minimum value will be the answer.

For (0, 160)

C=60\times 0+85\times 160=13600

For (55, 70)

C=60\times 55+85\times 70=9250

For (80, 50)

C=60\times 80+85\times 50=9050

For (80, 50)

C=60\times 170+85\times 0=10200

Hence the ordered pair which minimizes the objective function is (80, 50)

A flower garden has 12 sunflowers for every 45 irises. What is the unit rate for the number of irises per sunflower? Explain how
m_a_m_a [10]

It is given in the question that,

A flower garden has 12 sunflowers for every 45 irises.

And we have to find the unit rate  for the number of irises per sunflower.

And for that we have to divide number of Irises by number of Sunflower. That is

= \frac{45 Irises }{12 Sunflower} = 3.75 Irises \ per \ sunflower .

And that's the required unit rate .

After traveling for 4 hours and 1800 miles, an airplane begins a steady descent. When it begins descending, its altitude (height
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Part 1)  Descending Rate = -2,000 ft/min

Part 2)  Starting altitude value is 33,000 ft

Part 3)  The linear equation for the plane's altitude (y) as a function of time (x) is:  y=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,x\,+\,33000\,ft

Part 4)  The information not used for the equation is that the plane was travelling for 4 hours to cover 1800 miles before starting the descent

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

The rate at which the airplane descends is given by the difference between final and initial altitude (17,000 ft-33,000 ft) divided the elapsed time (8 minutes):

Descending\,\,Rate\,= \frac{17000-33000}{8} \,\,\frac{ft}{min}=\frac{-16000}{8} \,\,\frac{ft}{min}=-\,2000\,\,\frac{ft}{min}

Part 2)

When graphing the descent (that is the plane's altitude as a function of time), the starting value for the altitude should be 33,000 ft

Part 3)

We can build the equation of the plane's altitude as a function of time in slope y-intercept form y = m x + b

by noticing that the slope "m" stands for the rate of descent that we found in part 1), and then using the information that at time zero (when the plane starts its descent), its altitude is 33000 ft:

y=m\,x\,+\,b\\y=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,x\,+\,b\\33000=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,(0)\,+\,b\\33000=b

with this information about the intercept "b", we can write the final expression for the plane's altitude as a function of time during its descent as:

y=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,x\,+\,33000\,ft

Part 4)

The information that was not used to write the descent equation was the initial details about how long the plane traveled (4 hours) and for 1800 miles.
