A roller coaster at an amusement park rises to a height of 196 feet above the ground. So far, it has risen 36% of this height. T

o
estimate the height the roller coaster has risen so far, Jake did the following.
1. Rounded 36% to 40%
2. Rounded 196 to 200
3. 10% of 200 is 20
4. 20(4) - 80
5. 36% of 196 is about 80
However, Jake's estimate was too high by almost 10 feet. Why was his estimate off by so much?
He made a computation error.
He rounded the percent up to 40% and the number up to 200.
He made a rounding error, and should have rounded 196 down to 100.
He should have rounded the percent down to 30% and the number down to 190.

vazorg [7]
The statement "<span>The rate of change of y with respect to x is inversely proportional to y^4" can be written mathematically as dy/dx = k/y^4

To solve the differential equation, we use variable saparable method.
y^4 dy = kdx
Integrating both sides gives,
y^5 / 5 = kx + A
y^5 = 5kx + 5A = Bx + C; where B = 5k and C = 5A
y= \sqrt[5]{Bx+C}</span>

Suppose that a disk drive has 5,000 cylinders, numbered 0 to 4,999. the drive is currently serving a request at cylinder 2,150,
Anni [7]

Answer:

13011, 7586, 7492 , 7424, 9917, and 9137.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1). FCFS is generally based on what is refer to as first come, first serve. That is to say the first one to come will be treated first so, we have that;

FCFS = 81 + 857 + 1084 + 504 + 2256 + 1074 + 1262 + 1167 + 3442 + 1284 = 13011.

(2). (SSTF) Is all about the shortest distance, for example in this question the shortest distance is =

Thus;

Total distance = (2150 - 2069) + (2296 - 2069) + ( 2296 - 2800) +( 3681 - 2800) + (4965 - 3681) + ( 4965 - 1618) + ( 1618-1523) + ( 1523-1212) + ( 1212-544) + ( 544 - 356).

=81 + 227 + 504 + 881 + 1284 + 3347 + 95 + 311 + 668 + 188 = 7586.

(3).SCAN deals with the processing of the nearest request

The distance =146 + 504 +881 + 1284 + 34(4999-4965) + 2930(4999-2069) + 451 + 95 + 311 + 668 +188 = 7492.

(4). LOOK is just like scan.

The distance = 146 + 504 + 881 + 1284 + 2896 + 451 + 95 + 311 + 668 + 188 = 7424.

(5). C-SCAN: this is the kind of scan from one end to the other.

The distance = 146 + 504 +881 +1284 + 34 (4999 - 4965) + 4999 (4999 -0 )+ 356 (356 -0 )+ 188 + 668 + 311 + 95 + 451 = 9917.

(6). C-LOOK : moves in the following order: 2150, 2296, 2800, 3681, 4965, here head moves back 356, 544, 1212, 1523, 1618, 2069.

Thus;

The distance = 146 + 504 + 881+ 1284 + 4609 (4965 - 356) + 188 + 668 + 311+ 95 + 451 = 9137.

Given the following prices, explain why Brand B is the better buy. (Hint: 16 ounces = 1 pound and 1 pound = 453.59 grams)
almond37 [142]
Convert all to lb and find cost per 1lb

A.
54oz, convert to lb
54/16=3.375lb
find per lb
4.89/3.375=$1.4488888 per lb

B.
2 and 3/4=2.75, 3.91/2.75=$1.42181 per lb

C. 910/453.59=2.00621lb
3.10/2.00621=$1.545 per lb



compare
A: $1.4488888 per lb

B: $1.42181 per lb

C: $1.545 per lb


B is cheapest, followed by A then C


B is best buy

How much of the 8% solution should we use to make 100g of a 3% solution?
sp2606 [1]
Suppose x grams of 8% solution should be mixed to make 100 g of 3% solution.
here we shall have:
the amount of 3% solution in the 100 g will be:
3/100*100=3 grams
the the equation will be, 8% of what quantity becomes 3g?
(8/100)*x=3
hence solving for x we shall have:
0.08x=3
x=3/0.08
x= 37.8 grams
The implication of this is that, when you have 37.5 grams of 8% solution, that will contain 3  of pure chemical and hence when you add more solvent on top of 37.5 g until you reach 100g, that will be 3% solution.
