Answer:

The size of Isabella's pool is 220 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the size of Isabella's pool be $x$ liters, $R$ be the rate of fill, $t$ be the time of fill and $V$ be the volume of water filled in the pool.

As the rate of fill is constant,

Therefore, volume of water filled in the pool can be given as,

$V= Rt$

Volume of water left is given as $x-V=x-Rt$

From the table,

Volume of water left after $t=2$ minutes is 184 liters.

So, $x-R(2)=184\\x-2R=184$ -------- 1

Volume of water left after $t=12$ minutes is 4 liters.

So, $x-R(12)=4\\x-12R=4$ ------------2

Multiply equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by -1, we get

$6x-12R=1104\\-x+12R=-4$

Now, we add the above equations, we get

$(6x-x)+(12R-12R)=1104-4\\5x=1100\\x=\frac{1100}{5}=220$

Therefore, the size of Isabella's pool is 220 liters.

On the added picture you can see that graphs of functions $y=2x^2-2$ and $y=-0.5x+4$ have two points of intersection. The x-coordinates of these points are the solutions of the equation
$2x^2-2=-0.5x+4$ .
Hence, the approximate solutions are x=-1.9 and x=1.6.

The following formula for the sum of the cubes of the first n integers is proved in Appendix E. Use it to evaluate the limit in

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2})$

And when we apply the limit we got that:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2}) =1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "The following formula for the sum of the cubes of the first n integers is proved in Appendix E. Use it to evaluate the limit . 1^3+2^3+3^3+...+n^3=[n(n+1)/2]^2"

We have the following formula in order to find the sum of cubes:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} i^3$

We can express this formula like this:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}i^3 =\lim_{n\to\infty} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2$

And using this property we need to proof that: 1^3+2^3+3^3+...+n^3=[n(n+1)/2]^2

$\lim_{n\to\infty} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2$

If we operate and we take out the 1/4 as a factor we got this:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{n^4}$

We can cancel $n^2$ and we got

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{(n+1)^2}{n^2}$

We can reorder the terms like this:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (\frac{n+1}{n})^2$

We can do some algebra and we got:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+\frac{1}{n})^2$

We can solve the square and we got:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2})$

And when we apply the limit we got that:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2}) =1$

What is the value of x in the figure below? In this diagram, ABD~CAD

olga55 [171]

Answer:

x = 25/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the known similarity of the triangles, we know that

10 x

----- = ----

16 10

Cross-multiplying, we get 16x = 100, and thus x = 100/16 = 50/8 = 25/4

x = 25/4

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

To answer this, write a system of equations and use one to solve the other.

b + 2c = 2000 or b = 2000 - 2c (substitute this in for b in the 2nd equation)

2b + 3c = 3300
2 (2000 - 2c) + 3c = 3300
4000 - 4c + 3c = 3300
4000 -c = 3300
-c = -700
c = 700 calories

He burned 700 calories per hour canoeing and 600 calories per hour playing basketball (2000 - 2 x 700).
