Answer:

The percent increase in the population of Saint Maria High is:

7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent increase is given by:

 \dfrac{New-Original}{Original}\times 100

New value=1926

Original value=1800

Percent increase=

\dfrac{1926-1800}{1800}\times 100

= \dfrac{126}{18} \\\\=7%

Hence, The percent increase in the population of Saint Maria High is:

7%

It’s a 7% increase. When you want to find percent increase/decrease, you want to subtract the numbers of the before and after. In this case, subtract 1926 and 1800, which will equal 126. Then, percent over 100 would be the first fraction, but since you don’t know the percent, put x. The second fraction is the amount of change over the original number. In this case, the amount of change will be 126 and the original is 1800. x/100=126/1800 now you just cross multiply and solve. You will end up with 7

Answer:

y=448-28x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles.

We have been given that Sully's car has an average fuel economy of 28 miles per gallon. The capacity of the fuel tank is 16 gallons.

Let us find the number of miles that Sully can drive with 16 gallons.

\text{Number of miles Sully can drive}=\text{16 gallons}\times \frac{\text{28 miles}}{\text{gallon}}  

\text{Number of miles Sully can drive}=\text{16}\times \text{28 miles}  

\text{Number of miles Sully can drive}=448\text{ miles}  

This means that initially Sully's car has can drive 448 miles, so at x equals 0, y will be 448.

As the car consumes 1 gallon for each 28 miles driven, so the gallons of fuel consumed in traveling x miles will be 28x. As each gallon of fuel will decrease with each 28 miles traveled, so slope of our function will be -28.

Upon substituting slope and y-intercept in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), we will get our function as:

y=448-28x

Therefore, our required function will be: y=448-28x.

The average blood alcohol concentration (bac) of eight male subjects was measured after consumption of 15 ml of ethanol (corresp
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

After 5 minutes, the BAC was increasing at the rate of 0.0137 mg/mL a minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average blood alcohol concentration (bac)  is modeled by the following function.

c(t) = 0.0225te^{-0.0467t}

In which t is measured in minuted.

How rapidly was the BAC increasing after 5 minutes?

This is c'(t) when t = 5.

Using the derivative of the product.

Derivative of the product:

c(t) = f(t)*g(t)

c'(t) = f'(t)*g(t) + f(t)*g'(t)

In which problem:

f(t) = 0.0225t

g(t) = e^{-0.0467t}

So

c'(t) = 0.0225e^{-0.0467t} - 0.0225*0.0467*te^{-0.0467t}

c'(5) = 0.0225e^{-0.0467*5} - 0.0225*0.0467*5e^{-0.0467*5} = 0.0137

After 5 minutes, the BAC was increasing at the rate of 0.0137 mg/mL a minute.
