The population of a certain species of insect is given by a differentiable function P, where P(t) is the number of insects in the population, in millions, at time t, where t is measured in days. When the environmental conditions are right, the population increases with respect to time at a rate that is directly proportional to the population. Starting August 15, the conditions were favorable and the population began increasing. On August 20, five days later, there were an estimated 10 million insects and the population was increasing at a rate of 2 million insects per day. Which of the following is a differential equation that models this situation?

a. P=2(t−5)+10
b. dP/dt=2/5t
c. dP/dt=1/5P
d. dP/dt=5P

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c. dP/dt = (1/5)P

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the rate of change of population with respect to time dP/dt is directly proportional to the population, P, we have

dP/dt ∝ P

dP/dt = kP

Given that dP/dt = 2 million insects per day and P = 10 million insects after 5 days, So,

2 = k × 10

k = 2/10

k = 1/5

So, dP/dt = kP

dP/dt = (1/5)P

Answer 2

The option C is correct

Differentiation

The rate of change of a function with respect to the given variable.

How to get the option?

The rate of change of population with respect to time is directly proportional to the population P. We have

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm{d} P}{\mathrm{d} t} \propto P\\\\\dfrac{\mathrm{d} P}{\mathrm{d} t} = kP[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm{d} P}{\mathrm{d} t}[/tex] is 2 million insects per day and P = 10 million insects after 5 days. So

[tex]\begin{aligned} \dfrac{\mathrm{d} P}{\mathrm{d} t} &= kP\\2 &= 10k\\k &= \dfrac{1}{5} \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm{d} P}{\mathrm{d} t} = kP\\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm{d} P}{\mathrm{d} t} = \dfrac{1}{5} P[/tex]

Thus, option C is correct.

On a large college campus, the students are able to get free copies of the school newspaper,the local newspaper, and a national paper. Ninety percent of the students read at least one of thepapers, 40% read only the school newspaper, 20% read only the local paper, 5% read only thenational paper, and 2% read all three papers. Fifty percent read the school newspaper, and 5%read the school and national newspapers. A randomly selected student is asked whether he orshe reads the school, local, or national paper. Express each of the following events in setnotation and find the percentage of students represented by each.a The student does not read any paper.b. The student reads the local paper.c. The student reads exactly two papers.d. The student reads at least two papers.

Answers

Answer:

a) The percentage that the student does not read any paper is  10%  

b) The percentage that the student reads the local paper is 40%

c) the percentage that the student reads exactly two papers is 23%

d) the percentage that the student reads at least two papers is 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

as illustrated in the Venn diagram below,

a)The student does not read any paper;

The percentage that the student does not read any paper will be;

100% - 90% = 10%

Therefore, The percentage that the student does not read any paper is  10%  

 

b) The percentage that the student reads the local paper;

from the Venn diagram below;

⇒ ( 20 + 15 + 3 + 2 )%    

= 40%

Therefore, The percentage that the student reads the local paper is 40%

c) The percentage that the student reads exactly two papers

⇒ ( 15 + 5 + 3 )%

= 23%

Therefore, the percentage that the student reads exactly two papers is 23%

d) The percentage that the student reads at least two papers;

⇒( 15 + 5 + 3 + 2 )%      

= 25%

Therefore, the percentage that the student reads at least two papers is 25%

The NEC permits 20% of the cross sectional area in a wireway to be occupied by conductors.for an 8"×8"×6' long wireway the conductors can occupy. In squared?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sjaoa

The required cross-sectional area in a wireway is 12.8 In squared.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions.

+ Addition operation: Adds values on either side of the operator.

For example 4 + 2 = 6

- Subtraction operation: Subtracts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

We have been given an 8"×8"×6' long wireway the conductors can occupy.

Since the NEC permits 20% of the cross-sectional area in a wireway to be occupied by conductors

So the required cross-sectional area in a wireway is

⇒ 20 % of ( 8"×8" )

⇒ 0.20 × (64 )

⇒ 12.8 In squared

Thus, the required cross-sectional area in a wireway is 12.8 In squared.

(x-2)^2-6(x-2)+5=0
Find a Value of X

Answers

Answer:

The values of x are:

[tex]x=3,\:x=7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

[tex](x-2)^2-6(x-2)+5=0[/tex]

Expand (x - 2)² = x² -4x + 4

[tex]x^2-4x+4-6\left(x-2\right)+5=0[/tex]

Expand: -6(x - 2) = -6x + 12

[tex]x^2-4x+4-6x+12+5=0[/tex]

simplifying

[tex]x^2-10x+21=0[/tex]

Factor  x² -10x + 21:  (x - 3) (x - 7)

[tex]\left(x-3\right)\left(x-7\right)=0[/tex]

Using the zero factor principle

if ab=0, then a=0 or b=0 (or both a=0 and b=0)

[tex]x-3=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x-7=0[/tex]

solving x - 3 = 0

x - 3 = 0

Adding 3 to both sides

[tex]x-3+3=0+3[/tex]

simplify

x = 3

solving x - 7 = 0

x - 7 = 0

Adding 7 to both sides

[tex]x-7+7=0+7[/tex]

Simplify

x = 7

Therefore, the values of x are:

[tex]x=3,\:x=7[/tex]

An aquarium contained an equal number of horseshoe crabs and sea stars. After 15 horseshoe crabs were removed and 27 sea stars were removed, the ratio of horseshoe crabs to sea stars was 5:3. How many horseshoe crabs and sea stars were there at first? Solve this problem and explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

45 horseshoe crabs and 45 sea stars

Step-by-step explanation:

The aquarium initially contained x crabs and x sea stars.

"After 15 horseshoe crabs and 27 sea stars are removed the ratio of horseshoe crabs to sea stars is 5:3"

(x-15):(x-27) = 5:3

(x-15)/(x-27) = 5/3

3(x-15) = 5(x-27)

3x-45 = 5x-135

90 = 2x

x = 45

Answer:

The correct answer is A:Let n = k. Then assume that 11" - 6 is divisible by 5. sorry if im wrong but if correct pls mark brainliest

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Premise:  If n is a positive integer, then 11ⁿ-6 is divisible by 5.

Let n=1.

11¹-6 = 5, so the premise is true for n=1.

Suppose the premise is true when n is an integer greater than 1,

then 11ⁿ-6 is divisible by 5.

11ⁿ⁺¹-6 = 11·11ⁿ - 6

   = (10+1)11ⁿ - 6

   = (10·11ⁿ) + (1·11ⁿ) - 6

   = (10·11ⁿ) + (11ⁿ - 6)

Both terms are divisible by 5, so 11ⁿ⁺¹-6 is divisible by 5. Therefore, the premise holds true for n+1.

Proof by induction.
