Answer:

John

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to compare these easier, you'd turn the percentage 75% into a fraction. 75% equals 3/4. Then, you'd find a common denominator. Both 3/4 and 5/8 can be turned to have the denominator of 8. Since 5/8 already has the denominator of 8, you'd leave that alone. But, in order to get the denominator of 8 for 3/4, you'd have to multiply 4 times 2 to get 8. And, what you do to the bottom, you must do to the top, so 3 times 2 is 6. So 3/4 = 6/8.

SO, which is bigger Sally's 5/8, or John's 6/8? John ate more lunch.

Investigate the following harvesting model both qualitatively and analytically. If a constant number h of fish are harvested fro

zalisa [80]

Answer:

a. The population does not become extinct in finite time.

Step-by-step explanation:

The model for the population of the fishery is

$dP/dt = P(a-bP)-h, P(0) = P_0$

If we rearrange and replace the constants we have:

$\frac{dP}{P(7-P)-49/4} =dt\\\\-4 (\frac{dP}{4(P-7)P+49}) =dt\\\\-4 \frac{dP}{(2P-7)^2} =dt\\\\-4 \int\frac{dP}{(2P-7)^2} =\int dt\\\\-4(-\frac{1}{2(2P-7)})=t+C\\\\\frac{2}{2P-7}=t+C\\\\ t=0 \,\,\, P(0)=P_0\\\\\frac{2}{2P_0-7}=0+C\\\\C=\frac{2}{2P_0-7}$

Now we can calculate if the population become 0 in any finite time

$\frac{2}{2P-7}=t+\frac{2}{2P_0-7}\\\\\frac{2}{2*0-7}=t+\frac{2}{2P_0-7}\\\\-\frac{2}{7}=t+\frac{2}{2P_0-7}\\\\$

To be a finite time, t>0

$t=-\frac{2}{7}-\frac{2}{2P_0-7}=0\\\\-\frac{2}{2P_0-7}=\frac{2}{7}\\\\7-2P_0=7\\\\P_0=0$

We can conclude that the only finite time in which P=0 is when the initial population is 0.

Because P0 is a positive constant, we can say that the population does not become extint in finite time.

An apartment complex on Ferenginar with 250 units currently has 223 occupants. The current rent for a unit is 892 slips of Gold-

Triss [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total units = 250

Current occupants = 223

Rent per unit = 892 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

Current rent = 892 x 223 =198,916 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

After increase in the rent, then the rent function becomes

Let us conside 'y' is increased in amount of rent

Then occupants left will be [223 - y]

Rent = [892 + 2y][223 - y] = R[y]

To maximize rent =

$\frac{dR}{dy}=0\\=2(223-y)-(892+2y)=0\\=446-2y-892-2y=0\\=-446-4y=0\\y=\frac{-446}{4}=-111.5$

Since 'y' comes in negative, the owner must decrease his rent to maximixe profit.

Since there are only 250 units available;

$y=-250+223=-27\\\\maximum \,profit =[892+2(-27)][223+27]\\=838 * 250\\=838\,for\,250\,units$

Optimal rent - 838 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

A high school coach needs to buy new athletic shorts for the 15 members of the basketball team. The coach must spend less than $

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

15x < 200; x < 13.33; the maximum price for a pair of shorts

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the inequality

Let x = price of a pair of shorts. Then

15x = price of shorts for the team

You have one condition:

15x < 200

2. Solve the inequality

$\begin{array}{rcl}15x & < & 200\\\\x & < & \dfrac{200}{15}\\\\x & < & \mathbf{13.333}\\\end{array}$

3. Meaning of solution

The solution represents the maximum price the coach can pay for a pair of shorts.

If the coach pays $13.33 per pair, the total cost for the team will be $199.95, and the condition is satisfied.
