Josiah, the manager of a pet store, bought 72 oz of water conditioner to use in his fish tanks. His small tanks would require 2

oz of conditioner and his large tanks would require 6 oz of conditioner. He made a sketch to show the line representing the different combinations of tanks he could put the water conditioner into. The x-axis represented the number of small tanks and the y-axis represented the number of large tanks. The manager labeled only the intercepts.
Which points did the manager label?



(0, 6) and (2, 0)

(0, 12) and (36, 0)
(6, 0) and (0, 2)
(0, 36) and (12, 0)

Given that t<span>he x-axis represented the number of small tanks and the y-axis represented the number of large tanks.

Given that </span>h<span>is small tanks would require 2 oz of conditioner and his large tanks would require 6 oz of conditioner and there are a total of 72 oz of water conditioners available.

The line representing the various combinations of </span>tanks he could put the water conditioner into is given by 2x + 6y = 72.

Since, t<span>he manager labeled only the intercepts.

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0 and is given by

2x + 6(0) = 72

x = 72 / 2 = 36

Thus, the x-intercept is (36, 0)

</span>
<span>The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0 and is given by

2(0) + 6y = 72

y = 72 / 6 = 12

Thus, the x-intercept is (0, 12)

Therefore, the points labeled by the manager are: (0, 12) and (36, 0)

Terrence walks at a pace of 2mi/h to the theater and watches a movie for 2 h and 15 min. He rides back home, taking the same rou
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the theater is 6.7 mi from home

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

speed 1 = 2 mi/h

time in theater = 2h 15 min

speed 2 = 40 mi/h

time = 3.5 h

Process

1.- Write the formula to calculate speed

             speed = distance / time

-Solve for time

             time = speed x time

2.- Write and equation to solve this problem

      total time = time from home to theater + time from theater to home

3.- Substitution

      3.5 = d/2 + d/40

4.- Solve for d

      3.5 = (20d + d) / 40

      140 = 21d

      d = 140 / 21

      d = 6.7 mi

Unless otherwise specified, the domain of a function f is assumed to be the set of all real numbers x for which f(x) is a real n
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is a piecewise function defined as:

N(t)=\left \{ {{25t+150} \ 0 \leq t \leq 6 \atop {\frac{200+80t}{2+0.05t} \ t \geq 8}} \right.

a)

We need to find the limit of the function as t goes to infinity. This means what is the max value of fish in the pond given times goes to infinity (on an on).

We will take the 2nd part of the equation since t falls into that range, t is infinity, which is definitely greater than 8.

\lim_{t \to \infty} \frac{200+80t}{2+0.05t} \\\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{80t}{0.05t}\\ \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{80}{0.05} =1600

This means the maximum number of fish at this pond is 1600, no matter how long it goes on.

b)

A function is continuous at a point if we have the limit and the functional value at that point same.

Functional value at t = 8 is (we use 2nd part of equation):

\frac{200+80t}{2+0.05t}\\\frac{200+80(8)}{2+0.05(8)}\\=350

We do have a value and limit also goes to this as t approaches 8.

So, function is continuous at t = 8

c)

We want to find is there a "time" when the number of fishes in the pond is 250, during t from 0 to 6. We plug in 250 into N(t) and try to find t. Make sure to use the 1st part of the piece-wise function. Shown below:

N(t)=25t+150\\250=25t+150\\25t=250-150\\25t=100\\t=4

The time is 4 years when the number of fishes in the pond is 250

The lifespans of meerkats in a particular zoo are normally distributed. The average meerkat lives 10.410.410, point, 4 years; th
kati45 [8]

Answer:

99.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

The lifespans of meerkats in a particular zoo are normally distributed. The average meerkat lives 10.4 years; the standard deviation is 1.9 years.

Use the empirical rule (68-95-99.7%) to estimate the probability of a meerkat living less than 16.1 years.

Solution:

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution most of the data fall within three standard deviations (σ) of the mean (µ). That is  68% of the data falls within the first standard deviation (µ ± σ), 95% falls within the first two standard deviations (µ ± 2σ), and 99.7%  falls within the first three standard deviations (µ ± 3σ).

Therefore:

68% falls within (10.4 ± 1.9). 68% falls within 8.5 years to 12.3 years

95% falls within (10.4 ± 2*1.9). 95% falls within 6.6 years to 14.2 years

99.7% falls within (10.4 ± 3*1.9). 68% falls within 4.7 years to 16.1 years

Probability of a meerkat living less than 16.1 years = 100% - (100% - 99.7%)/2 = 100% - 0.15% = 99.85%
