Over [174]

Answer: D. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The revenue each season from tickets at the theme part is represented by $t(x) = 5x$ .

The cost to pay the employees each season is represented by $r(x) = (1.5)x$ .

From the given graph , we can see that at 4th season, the profit = 15

Hence, the estimated profit after four seasons. =15

Researchers recorded that a group of bacteria grew from 100 to 7,000 in 14 hours. At this rate of growth, how many bacteria will

Alik [6]

The number of bacteria grown in 32 hours is 15771

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that,

Researchers recorded that a group of bacteria grew from 100 to 7,000 in 14 hours.

Therefore, the bacteria has grown from 100 to 7000 in 14 hours.

<u> To calculate number of bacteria grown in 14 hours :</u>

⇒ 7000 - 100 = 6900

6900 bacteria grows in 14 hours. We need to find out the growth of bacteria in 1 hour in order to calculate its growth in 32 hours.

<u>To calculate number of bacteria grown in 1 hour :</u>

⇒ Total bacteria growth in 14 hours / 14

⇒ 6900 / 14

⇒ 492.85

<u>To calculate number of bacteria grown in 32 hours :</u>

⇒ 492.85 × 32

⇒ 15771.2

⇒ 15771 (rounded to nearest whole number)

∴ The number of bacteria grown in 32 hours is 15771

A sports company wants to package a ball with a 1.5-inch radius in sets of two. They have two options: a cylinder or a square pr

guajiro [1.7K]

Step 1

Find the Volume of the two balls

we know that

the Volume of a sphere is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

In this problem we have

$r=1.5\ in$

Substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi 1.5^{3}=4.5\pi\ in^{3}$

so

the volume of the two balls is equal

$V=2*4.5\pi=9 \pi\ in^{3}$

Step 2

Find the volume of a cylinder

we know that

The Volume of a cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2}h$

In this problem we have

$r=1.5\ in$

$h=4*r=4*1.5=6\ in$

Substitute

$V=\pi (1.5^{2})(6)=13.5 \pi\ in^{3}$

Step 3

Find the amount of wasted space in the cylinder

Subtract the volume of the two balls from the volume of the cylinder

$13.5\pi\ in^{3}-9\pi\ in^{3}=4.5\pi\ in^{3}=14.14\ in^{3}$

Step 4

Find the volume of the square prism

The volume of the prism is equal to

$V=Bh$

where

B is the area of the base of the prism

h is the height of the prism

In this problem we have

$B=(2*1.5)^{2}=9\ in^{2}$ -----> the base is equal to the diameter

$h=4*r=4*1.5=6\ in$

Substitute

$V=9*6=54\ in^{3}$

Step 5

Find the amount of wasted space in the prism

Subtract the volume of the two balls from the volume of the prism

$54\ in^{3}-9\pi\ in^{3}=25.73\ in^{3}$

Step 6

Compare the amount of wasted space

the amount of wasted space in the cylinder is $14.14\ in^{3}$

the amount of wasted space in the prism is $25.73\ in^{3}$

Find the difference

$25.73\ in^{3}-14.14\ in^{3}=11.59\ in^{3}=11.6\ in^{3}$

The package that has the least amount of wasted space is the cylinder

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

the cylinder because it has approximately 11.6 in.3 less wasted space than the prism

Which expression is equivalent to the given polynomial expression?

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

C. -31m⁴n - 8m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(9mn - 19m⁴n) - (8m² + 12m⁴n + 9mn)

Required:

Determine an expression equivalent to it

Solution:

(9mn - 19m⁴n) - (8m² + 12m⁴n + 9mn)

Distribute the negative sign to open the parentheses

9mn - 19m⁴n - 8m² - 12m⁴n - 9mn

Combine like terms

9mn - 9mn - 19m⁴n - 12m⁴n - 8m²

-31m⁴n - 8m²

Therefore, -31m⁴n - 8m² is an equivalent expression of (9mn - 19m⁴n) - (8m² + 12m⁴n + 9mn)
