Pregnant women process caffeine at about 5. 6% per hour. A 12-oz. Cup of a certain type of coffee has 260 mg of caffeine. Which equation represents the amount of caffeine C in a pregnant woman’s body t hours after the coffee is consumed?

Answer:

3 / (7-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

"Subtract 5 from 7"

When you're subtracting from something, the reverse the order of the numbers.  So, the expression here would be "7 - 5"

"Then, divide 3 by the result."

Here, you're dividing 3 by the result, so the 3 must be in the numerator (on top of the fraction), and the "result from the previous step must be in the denominator (on the bottom of the fraction).  So, the expression here would be "3 / result"

Since order of operations forces division to happen before subtraction, we'll need parentheses around the first result to force the subtraction to happen first, as instructed.

So, the final expression would be "3 / (7-5)"

The equation of the axis of symmetry for the given function is x = 1.

To find the equation of the axis of symmetry for the function f(x) = -4x² + 8x - 28, we can use the formula:

x = -b / (2a)

where "a" and "b" are coefficients in the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c.

In this case, a = -4 and b = 8. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

x = -8 / (2*(-4))

x = -8 / (-8)

x = 1.

The axis of symmetry for a quadratic function in the form of [tex]f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]  can be found using the formula x = -b / (2a).

In the case of the given quadratic function f(x) = -4x² + 8x - 28, the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] is a = -4 and the coefficient of x is b = 8.

The general solution to the differential equation is, |3x^4/(y(x+y))|x + |x^3| ln|y| + |x^3| ln|x+y| + h(x) = C.

The partial derivative of (3xy + y^2) with respect to y is 6xy + 2y, and the partial derivative of (x^2 + xy) with respect to x is 2x + y. Since these are not equal, the differential equation is not exact.

To make it exact, we need to find an integrating factor μ(x, y) such that μ(x, y)(3xy + y^2) dx + μ(x, y)(x^2 + xy) dy = 0 is exact. We can find μ(x, y) by using the formula:

μ(x, y) = e^(∫(∂M/∂y - ∂N/∂x)/N dx)

where M = 3xy + y^2 and N = x^2 + xy. We have:

(∂M/∂y - ∂N/∂x)/N = (6xy + 2y - 2x - y)/(x^2 + xy) = (6xy - x - y)/(x^2 + xy)

We can now find the integrating factor μ(x, y) by integrating this expression with respect to x:

μ(x, y) = e^(∫(6xy - x - y)/(x^2 + xy) dx) = e^(3ln|x| - ln|y| - ln|x+y| + C) = e^(ln|x^3/(y(x+y))| + C) = |x^3/(y(x+y))|e^C

where C is the constant of integration.

Now we multiply the original differential equation by the integrating factor μ(x, y) to obtain:

|3x^4/(y(x+y))| dx + |x^3/(y(x+y))| dy = 0

This is now an exact differential equation, and we can find its solution by integrating with respect to x or y. Integrating with respect to x, we get:

|3x^4/(y(x+y))|x + g(y) = C

where g(y) is the constant of integration. To find g(y), we integrate the coefficient of dy:

g(y) = ∫|x^3/(y(x+y))| dy = |x^3| ln|y| + |x^3| ln|x+y| + h(x)

where h(x) is another constant of integration. Substituting g(y) back into the solution, we have:

|3x^4/(y(x+y))|x + |x^3| ln|y| + |x^3| ln|x+y| + h(x) = C

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two cylinders are similar, their corresponding dimensions (radius and height) are proportional. Let the radius of the smaller cylinder be r.

Then, we can write:

r / 6 = R / 30

where R is the radius of the larger cylinder.

Simplifying this equation, we get:

R = 5r

Now, we can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder to find the volume of the larger cylinder:

Volume of smaller cylinder = πr^2h = 90 cm^3

Volume of larger cylinder = πR^2H = π(5r)^2(30) = 750πr^2 cm^3

Substituting R = 5r, we get:

Volume of larger cylinder = 750πr^2 cm^3

Therefore, the volume of the larger cylinder is 750π times the volume of the smaller cylinder:

Volume of larger cylinder = 750π(90 cm^3) = 67,500π/ cm^3 (approx. 211,239.74 cm^3 rounded to five decimal places).

Using the ratio, we solve and get, Ben needs 0.8 litres of red paint, 0.64 litres of yellow paint, and 0.06 litres of white paint to make 1.5 litres of orange paint.

To make 1.5 litres of orange paint, Ben needs to mix the red, yellow, and white paint in the ratio of 20 : 16 : 1.5.

To calculate the amount of each color needed, you first need to find the total number of parts in the ratio.

The total number of parts is 20 + 16 + 1.5 = 37.5.

Next, you can calculate the amount of each color needed by dividing 1.5 litres by the total number of parts in the ratio, and then multiplying by the respective parts for each color.

So, the amount of red paint needed is:

(1.5/37.5) x 20 = 0.8 litres

The amount of yellow paint needed is:

(1.5/37.5) x 16 = 0.64 litres

And the amount of white paint needed is:

(1.5/37.5) x 1.5 = 0.06 litres

Optimize crate cost by expressing material cost in terms of x and y, calculating cost of all four sides, and finding minimum cost. Optimal dimensions: x = 16 ft, y = 48 ft. Minimum cost: $8704.

To find the dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material, we need to use optimization techniques, we need to express the cost of materials in terms of x and y then calculate the cost of all four sides, then find the minimum cost.
Let's start by defining the variables we need to work with:

Let x be the length of one side of the square base (in feet),  Let y be the height of the crate (in feet).
From the given volume, we know that:
V = x^2 * y = 12288 ft^3
We can use this equation to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other:
y = 12288 / (x^2)
Now we need to express the cost of materials in terms of x and y.
The area of the bottom is x^2, so the cost of the bottom is:
[tex]C_b = 10 * x^2[/tex]
The area of each side is x * y, and there are four sides, so the cost of the sides is:
[tex]C_s = 4 * 2 * x * y = 8xy[/tex]
The area of the top is also x^2, so the cost of the top is:
[tex]C_t = 2 * x^2[/tex]
The total cost of materials is the sum of these three costs:
[tex]C = C_b + C_s + C_t = 10x^2 + 8xy + 2x^2[/tex]
Now we can substitute y = 12288 / (x^2) into this equation:
[tex]C = 10x^2 + 8x * (12288 / x^2) + 2x^2[/tex]
Simplifying this expression, we get:
[tex]C = 12x^2 + 98304 / x[/tex]
To find the minimum cost, we need to find the value of x that minimizes this expression. We can do this by taking the derivative of C with respect to x and setting it equal to zero:
C' = 24x - 98304 / x^2 = 0
Solving for x, we get:
x = 16 ft
Now we can use this value of x to find y:
y = 12288 / (16^2) = 48 ft
Therefore, the dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material are:
- Length of one side of the square base = x = 16 ft
- Height of the crate = y = 48 ft
To check that this is indeed the minimum cost, we can plug these values back into the expression for C and calculate the cost:
C = 10 * 16^2 + 8 * 16 * 48 + 2 * 16^2 = 8704
Therefore, the minimum cost of material for the crate is $8704.

To translate a figure by a given vector, you need to move each point of the figure by the same amount and in the same direction as the vector. In this case, we want to translate ABC by a vector of (1, 4), which means we need to move each point of ABC one unit to the right and four units up.

Let's say the coordinates of the points of ABC are:

A = [tex]\rm (x_1, y_1)[/tex]

B = [tex]\rm (x_2, y_2)[/tex]

C = [tex]\rm (x_3, y_3)[/tex]

To translate ABC by the vector (1, 4), we add 1 to each x-coordinate and 4 to each y-coordinate:

A' = [tex]\rm (x_1 + 1, y_1 + 4)[/tex]   (x₁ + 1, y₁ + 4)

B' = [tex]\rm (x_2 + 1, y_2 + 4)[/tex]   (x₂ + 1, y₂ + 4)

The perimeter is indeed 26 feet, which means they have used all the extra fencing.

Let's start by assuming that the length and width of the garden patch are whole numbers of feet, since we are asked to use only whole numbers.

Let's call the length of the garden patch "L" and the width "W".

We know that Liam has 26 feet of fencing left over. This fencing will be used to make the perimeter of the garden patch, which is given by:

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

We can substitute the value of the perimeter with the amount of fencing that Liam has:

26 = 2L + 2W

Simplifying this equation, we get:

13 = L + W

Since we want to use all the extra fencing, we know that the perimeter of the garden patch must be 26 feet. We can use this information to write another equation:

Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 26

We can substitute the value of 13 for L + W in this equation:

2L + 2W = 26

2L + 2(13-L) = 26

2L + 26 - 2L = 26

26 = 26

This equation is true, which means that our assumption that L and W are whole numbers is correct.

Therefore, the dimensions of the garden patch that Liam and his brother can make for their sister are 6 feet by 7 feet.

To check, we can calculate the perimeter:

Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 2(6) + 2(7) = 12 + 14 = 26

So the perimeter is indeed 26 feet, which means they have used all the extra fencing.

Latoya may experience some fluctuations in her winnings and losses in the short run, in the long run, her average winnings will approach $0.50 per selection.

What is the expected value of playing the game and what Latoya can expect after playing the game many times?

(a) To find the expected value of playing the game, we need to multiply the amount that Latoya can win or lose by the probability of each outcome, and then add up the results. Let p(i) be the probability of selecting the ball with the number i. Since there are 8 balls in total and each ball is equally likely to be selected, we have:

p(i) = 1/8 for i = 1, 2, ..., 8

Now we can calculate the expected value:

E(X) = ∑[i=1 to 5] (i * p(i)) + ∑[i=6 to 8] (-1 * p(i))

= (1/8)(1) + (1/8)(2) + (1/8)(3) + (1/8)(4) + (1/8)(5)

- (1/8)(1) - (1/8)(1) - (1/8)(1)

= 0.5

Therefore, the expected value of playing the game is $0.50.

(b) In the long run, after playing the game many times, Latoya can expect to break even (neither gain nor lose money) on average per selection. This means that over a large number of selections, she can expect to win some money on some selections and lose some money on others, but on average, her total winnings and losses will balance out to zero.

To see why this is the case, consider that the expected value of a single selection is $0.50. If Latoya plays the game many times, the law of large numbers tells us that the average winnings per selection will converge to the expected value of $0.50. So even though Latoya may experience some fluctuations in her winnings and losses in the short run, in the long run, her average winnings will approach $0.50 per selection.

Roy should cut the pizza at an angle of 4.7 radians if the total diameter of the pizza is 12 inches.

Diameter of the pizza = 12 inches

The area he can eat = 84. 8 inches

The area of the pizza for 12 inches diameter can be calculated by using the formula:

Area = π*[tex]r^2[/tex]

Area = π* ([tex]6^2[/tex])

Area = 36π

The angle of the slice of pizza he can eat about 84.8 square inches can be calculated as:

Area of sector = (θ/2) ×[tex]r^2[/tex]

84.8 = (θ/2) × [tex]6^2[/tex]

84.8 = 18*θ

θ = 84.8 / 18

θ = 4.71 radians

Therefore, we can conclude that Roy should cut the pizza at an angle of  4.7 radians.
