At the beginning of a snowstorm, Amadou had 2 inches of snow on his lawn. The snow then began to fall at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour. Assuming no snow was melting, how much snow would Amadou have on his lawn 4 hours after the snow began to fall? How much snow would Amadou have on his lawn after tt hours of snow falling

Answers

Answer:

4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

2 inches of snow on the lawnRate of snow falling = 0.5 inches per hourSnow did not melt

Let y = height of snow on the lawn

Let t = time in hours

⇒ y = 2 + 0.5t

To find how much snow is on the lawn after 4 hours of snowing, substitute t = 4 into the found equation and solve for y:

⇒ y = 2 + 0.5(4)

⇒ y = 2 + 2

⇒ y = 4 inches

Therefore, Amadou will have 4 inches of snow on his lawn after 4 hours of snow falling.

After 4 hours of continuous snowfall at a rate of 0.5 inches per hour, Amadou would have 4 inches of snow on his lawn. After t hours of snow falling at the same rate, he would have 2 + 0.5t inches of snow on his lawn.

After 4 hours of snow falling at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour, Amadou would have:

Snow accumulation = Initial snow + (Snowfall rate × Time)

Snow accumulation = 2 inches + (0.5 inches/hour × 4 hours)

Snow accumulation = 2 inches + 2 inches

Snow accumulation = 4 inches of snow.

After t hours of snow falling, the amount of snow on Amadou's lawn would be:

Snow accumulation = Initial snow + (Snowfall rate × Time)

Snow accumulation = 2 inches + (0.5 inches/hour × t hours)

Snow accumulation = 2 + 0.5t inches of snow.

The table shows the height of water in a pool as it is being filled. A table showing Height of Water in a Pool with two columns and six rows. The first column, Time in minutes, has the entries, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. The second column, Height in inches, has the entries, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24. The slope of the line through the points is 2. Which statement describes how the slope relates to the height of the water in the pool? The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water decreases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water was 2 inches before any water was added. The height of the water will be 2 inches when the pool is filled. help me

Answers

Answer:

The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is always the ratio of

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

in our case, x is the time (minutes), and y is the water height (inches).

we see, the longer the pool get filled, the higher the water gets. logical, right ?

by checking the data points we see :

with every 2 minutes passing the water height increases by 4 inches.

so, the slope is +4/+2 = 2/1 = 2

and that ratio tells us now the increase of the water height with every fraction or multiple of the measured 2-minute interval.

every 2 minutes 4 inches more.

so, e.g. every 3×2 = 6 minutes we get 3×4 = 12 inches more.

and - every 1/2 × 2 = 1 minute more we get 1/2 × 4 = 2 inches more.

The solution to the equation x = 4 + (x + 4) is 0.

The correct option is "one real solution".

What is an equation?

Two algebraic expressions having the same value and symbol '=' in between are called an equation.

Expanding the expression on the right-hand side, we have:

x = 4 + (4x - 4)

x = 4x

Subtracting 4x from both sides, we get:

x - 4x = 0

-3x = 0

Dividing both sides by -3, we get:

x = 0

Therefore, there is one solution to the equation x = 4 + (4x - 4) as the equation simplifies to 0.

So the correct answer is 0, "one real solution".

The radius of the circle is 5.2 units if the length of an arc of a circle is 7.34 units, and the measure of the corresponding central angle is 81°

What is a circle?

It is described as a set of points, where each point is at the same distance from a fixed point (called the center of a circle)

We have:

Length of the arc of a circle:

s = 7.34 units

The measure of central angle:

θ = 81 degrees =  1.413 radians

s = rθ

r is the radius of the circle

7.34 = r(1.413)

r = 5.19 ≈ 5.2 units

From the question, the number of blue pieces is:

Blue = 82

Let the total number of M&M be M.

So, we have:

Blue = Number of blue/Total * M

This gives

82 = 4/15 * M

Multiply both sides by 15/4

15/4 * 82 = M

The diagonal of a TV is 30 inches long. Assuming that this diagonal forms a pair of 30-60-90 right triangles, what are the exact length and width of the TV? A. 60 inches by 60,3 inches B. 602 inches by 60 2 inches O C. 15/2 inches by 15/2 inches OD. 15 inches by 15√3 inches​

Answers

The dimensions of the TV are 15 inches by  (√3)*15 inches, so the correct option is D.

How to get the length and the width of the TV?

We can think of this as a right triangle, where the hypotenuse measures 30 inches, and the angles of the triangle are 30°, 60° and 90°.

If we step on the 30° angle, the length will be the opposite cathetus, then we can use the trigonometric relation:

sin(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse).

Replacing what we know:

sin(30°) = length/30 in

length = sin(30°)*30in = (1/2)*30 in = 15in

And the adjacent cathetus will be the width, then we can use:

cos(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse).

Replacing what we know:

cos(30°) = width/(30 in)

width = cos(30°)*30in = (√3/2)*30in = (√3)*15in

Then the dimensions of the TV are 15 inches by  (√3)*15 inches, so the correct option is D.

25 = 1 + (n - 1)*2                 Subtract 1 from both sides?

25-1 = 1-1 + (n - 1)*2            Combine

24 = (n  -  1) * 2                   Divide by 2

sin²A + cos² A= 1

sin A= √1 - cos² A

sin A = √1- 25/169

sin A= √144/169
