Answer:

The farmer needs 24 crates to hold the carrots.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many crates the farmer needs to hold the carrots, knowing that his farm has 4.8 acres of land, where he can harvest 120 pounds per acre, and that each crates can hold up to 24 pounds of carrots, the following calculation must be performed:

(4.8 x 120) / 24 = X

576/24 = X

24 = X

Thus, the farmer needs 24 crates to hold the carrots.

World wind energy generating1 capacity, W , was 371 gigawatts by the end of 2014 and has been increasing at a continuous rate of
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

a) W(t) = 371(1.168)^{t}

b) Wind capacity will pass 600 gigawatts during the year 2018

Step-by-step explanation:

The world wind energy generating capacity can be modeled by the following function

W(t) = W(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which W(t) is the wind energy generating capacity in t years after 2014, W(0) is the capacity in 2014 and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

371 gigawatts by the end of 2014 and has been increasing at a continuous rate of approximately 16.8%.

This means that

W(0) = 371, r = 0.168

(a) Give a formula for W , in gigawatts, as a function of time, t , in years since the end of 2014 . W= gigawatts

W(t) = W(0)(1+r)^{t}

W(t) = 371(1+0.168)^{t}

W(t) = 371(1.168)^{t}

(b) When is wind capacity predicted to pass 600 gigawatts? Wind capacity will pass 600 gigawatts during the year?

This is t years after the end of 2014, in which t found when W(t) = 600. So

W(t) = 371(1.168)^{t}

600 = 371(1.168)^{t}

(1.168)^{t} = \frac{600}{371}

(1.168)^{t} = 1.61725

We have that:

\log{a^{t}} = t\log{a}

So we apply log to both sides of the equality

\log{(1.168)^{t}} = \log{1.61725}

t\log{1.168} = 0.2088

0.0674t = 0.2088

t = \frac{0.2088}{0.0674}

t = 3.1

It will happen 3.1 years after the end of 2014, so during the year of 2018.

Corinne and Aretha are having a 26-mile race. Corinne gave Aretha a head start by letting her begin 3.5 miles in front of the st
Ronch [10]
From the table, the speed of Corinne is given by

speed=slope= \frac{2.5-1.25}{20-10} = \frac{1.25}{10} =0.125 \ miles / minute

From the graph, the speed of Aretha is given by

speed=slope= \frac{5.5-4.5}{20-10} = \frac{1}{10} =0.1 \ miles / minute

The distance from the starting point of Corinne at any time t is given by D = 0.125t while the distance from the starting point of Aretha at any time t is given by D = 3.5 + 0.1t

Let t be the number of minutes after the start of the race when Corinne catchs Aretha, then

0.125t = 3.5 + 0.1t
0.025t = 3.5
t = 3.5 / 0.025 = 140

Therefore, the number of <span>minutes after the start of the race that Corinne will catch Aretha</span> is 140 minutes.

Varvara68 [4.7K]
For the house A we have:
 f (x) = 124270 (1.04) ^ x
 Evaluating for 7, 8, 9 and 10 we have:
 f (7) = 124270 (1.04) ^ 7 = 163530.8422
 f (8) = 124270 (1.04) ^ 8 = 170072.0759
 f (9) = 124270 (1.04) ^ 9 = 176874.9589
 f (10) = 124270 (1.04) ^ 10 = 183949.9573

 For house B we have:
 
f (x) = 114270 (1.05) ^ x
 Evaluating for 7, 8, 9 and 10 we have:
 f (7) = 114270 (1.05) ^ 7 = 160789.3653
 f (8) = 114270 (1.05) ^ 8 = 168828.8336
 f (9) = 114270 (1.05) ^ 9 = 177270.2752
 f (10) = 114270 (1.05) ^ 10 = 186133.789

 We observe that for years 7 and 8 the value of house A is greater than the value of house B.

Estimate 58% of 121 by using 10%
kvv77 [185]
58% is about equal to 60%, 10% of 121 is 12.1.
12.1 * 6 = 72.6
To take this further, 58% is 2% less than 60%, or 2 times 1%. 1% of 121 is 1.21.
72.6  - (1.21 * 2) = 72.6 - 2.42 = 70.18
