Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the compatible numbers with the common denominator so you want to multiply by ones until you get something with the same denominator. In this case it's 12, 1/3 x 4 = 4/12 and 1/4 x 3 = 3/12, Then subtract. Therefore you get your answer 1/12

Colin is painting figurines. He spends 20 minutes painting each figurine. After painting for 60 minutes, he still has 9 more fig
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

f(t) = -0.05t +12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must pay attention to the following data supplied:

- f It is the number of figurines that remain to be painted.

- t amount of time, in minutes, that Colin spends painting

- Colin takes 20 minutes painting each figurines.

- After painting 60 min, he still has 9 figurines left. f (60) = 9

If he takes 20 minutes painting 1, it means that in 60 minutes he has painted 3 and he has 9 left.

Then, at the beginning he has 9 +3 figurines to be painted.

f (0) = 3 + 9\\f (0) = 12

With these two points we can find the function:

If m is the slope of the line, then:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m = \frac{9-12}{60-0}\\\\m = -0.05\\\\f (t) = -0.05t + c

Where by definition c = f(0) = 12

Finally the formula is:

f(t) = -0.05t +12

Conservation of Species A certain species of turtle faces extinction because dealers collect truckloads of turtle eggs to be sol
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The turtle population's rate of growth will be 32 turtles per year after 2 years and 248 per year after 6 years.

Ten years after the conservation measures are implemented the population will be 3260 turtles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate of growth of the turtle population at any time <em>t</em> you need to find N'(t)

\frac{d}{dt}N(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(2t^3+3t^2-4t+1000)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\\frac{d}{dt}(2t^3)+\frac{d}{dt}(3t^2)-\frac{d}{dt}(4t)+\frac{d}{dt}(1000)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(x^a\right)=a\cdot x^{a-1}\\\\N'(t)=6t^2+6t-4

In particular, when t = 2 and t = 6, we have

N'(2)=6(2)^2+6(2)-4=32\\\\N'(6)=6(6)^2+6(6)-4=248

so the turtle population's rate of growth will be 32 turtles per year after 2 years and 248 per year after 6 years.

The turtle population at the end of the tenth year will be

N(10)=2(10)^3+3(10)^2-4(10)+1000\\N(10)=3260 \:turtles

Find the dimensions of a rectangle with area 512 m2 whose perimeter is as small as possible. (If both values are the same number
Masja [62]

Answer:

<h2>√512 by √512 </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Length the length and breadth of the rectangle be x and y.

Area of the rectangle A = Length * breadth

Perimeter P = 2(Length + Breadth)

A = xy and P = 2(x+y)

If the area of the rectangle is 512m², then 512 = xy

x = 512/y

Substituting x = 512/y into the formula for calculating the perimeter;

P = 2(512/y + y)

P = 1024/y + 2y

To get the value of y, we will set dP/dy to zero and solve.

dP/dy = -1024y⁻² + 2

-1024y⁻² + 2 = 0

-1024y⁻² = -2

512y⁻² = 1

y⁻² = 1/512

1/y² = 1/512

y²  = 512

y = √512 m

On testing for minimum, we must know that the perimeter is at the minimum when y = √512

From xy = 512

x(√512) = 512

x = 512/√512

On rationalizing, x = 512/√512 * √512 /√512

x = 512√512 /512

x = √512 m

Hence, the dimensions of a rectangle is √512 m  by √512 m
