Answer:

Option C. 32/3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form p*x=k or p=k/x

we know that

For p=14, x=16

Find the value of k

k=p*x

substitute the values

k=(14)*(16)=224

so

The equation is equal to

p=\frac{224}{x}

Find the value of p when x=21

substitute the value of x in the equation

p=\frac{224}{21}    

simplify

Divide by 7 both numerator and denominator

p=\frac{32}{3}

Use polar coordinates to find the volume of the given solid. bounded by the paraboloid z = 9 + 2x2 + 2y2 and the plane z = 15 in
mina [271]

Answer:

Z = 8 + 2x2 + 2y2

Convert to polar coordinates

Z = 8 + 2r2

Now theta will go from 0 to pi/2 because it's in the first quadrant.

R will go from 0 to the radius of the circle formed at the intersection of the plane and the paraboloid.

14 = 8 + 2r2

r = sqrt(3)

So r goes from 0 to sqrt(3).

You integrate 14-z where 0<r<sqrt(3) and 0<theta<pi/2.

It is 14-z and not z because just z would give the volume under the paraboloid.

The value of good wine increases with age. Thus, if you are a wine dealer, you have the problem of deciding whether to sell your
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: 64 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume the dealer sold the bottle now for $P, then invested that money at 5% interest. The return would be:

R1 = P(1.05)^t,

This means that after t years, the dealer would have the total amount of:

$P×1.05^t.

If the dealer prefer to wait for t years from now to sell the bottle of wine, then he will get the return of:

R2 = $P(1 + 20).

The value of t which will make both returns equal, will be;

R1 = R2.

P×1.05^t = P(1+20)

P will cancel out

1.05^t = 21

Log both sides

Log1.05^t = Log21

tLog1.05 = Log21

t = Log21/Log1.05

t = 64 years

The best time to sell the wine is therefore 64years from now.

kow [346]
Since 12/8 is 1.5, we should multiply each quantity by 1.5. Therefore, he should use 360g plain flour, 3 eggs, and 900ml milk. Hope this did, if you wouldn’t mind marking brainliest if it did!
