The rate (In mg carbon/m3/h) at which photosynthesis takes place for a species of phytoplankton is modeled by the function 110I 12 +1+ 9 where I is the light intensity (measured in thousands of foot-candles). For what light intensity is P a maximum?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P is maximum at I = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

The rate (in mg carbon/m³/h) at which photosynthesis takes place for a species of phytoplankton is modeled by the function P = 100I/(I² + I + 4) where I is the light intensity (measured in thousands of foot candles). For what light intensity P is a maximum?

To find the value of I at which P is maximum, we differentiate P with respect to I and equate it to zero.

So, dP/dI =  d[100I/(I² + I + 4)]/dI

= [(I² + I + 4)d(100I)/dI - 100Id(I² + I + 4)/dI]/(I² + I + 4)²

= [(I² + I + 4)100 - 100I(2I + 1)]/(I² + I + 4)²

= [100I² + 100I + 400 - 200I² - 100I]/(I² + I + 4)²

= [-100I² + 400]/(I² + I + 4)²

=  -100[I² - 4]/(I² + I + 4)²

Since dP/dI = 0,  -100[I² - 4]/(I² + I + 4)² = 0 ⇒ I² - 4 = 0 ⇒ I² = 4 ⇒ I = ±√4

I = ±2

Since I cannot be negative, we ignore the minus sign

To determine if this is a maximum point, we differentiate dP/dI. So,

d(dP/dI)/dI = d²P/dI² = d[-100[I² - 4]/(I² + I + 4)²]/dI

= [(I² + I + 4)²d(-100[I² - 4])/dI - (-100[I² - 4])d(I² + I + 4)²/dt]/[(I² + I + 4)²]²

= [(I² + I + 4)²(-200I) + 100[I² - 4]) × (2I + 1) × 2(I² + I + 4)]/(I² + I + 4)⁴

= [-200I(I² + I + 4)² + 200[I² - 4])(2I + 1)(I² + I + 4)]/(I² + I + 4)⁴

= [-200(I² + I + 4)[I(I² + I + 4) - [I² - 4])(2I + 1)]]/(I² + I + 4)⁴

= [-200(I² + I + 4)[I³ + I² + 4I - I² + 4])(2I + 1)]]/(I² + I + 4)⁴

= [-200(I² + I + 4)[I³ + 4I + 8])(2I + 1)]]/(I² + I + 4)⁴

Substituting I = 2 into d²P/dI², we have

= [-200(2² + 2 + 4)[2³ + 4(2) + 8])(2(2) + 1)]]/(2² + 2 + 4)⁴

= [-200(4 + 2 + 4)[8 + 8 + 8])(4 + 1)]]/(4 + 2 + 4)⁴

= [-200(10)[24](5)]]/(10)⁴

= -240000/10⁴

= -24

Since d²P/dI² = -24 < 0 at I = 2,  this shows that it I = 2 is a maximum point.

So, P is maximum at I = 2

b. 2-squared3/2
C.2+squared 3
D.2-squared3. Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answers

Observe that

5/12 = 1/4 + 1/6

so that

tan(5π/12) = tan(π/4 + π/6)

Then

tan(5π/12) = sin(π/4 + π/6) / cos(π/4 + π/6)

… = (sin(π/4) cos(π/6) + cos(π/4) sin(π/6)) / (cos(π/4) cos(π/6) - sin(π/4) sin(π/6))

… = (cos(π/6) + sin(π/6)) / (cos(π/6) - sin(π/6))

(since sin(π/4) = cos(π/4) = 1/√2)

… = (√3/2 + 1/2) / (√3/2 - 1/2)

… = (√3 + 1) / (√3 - 1)

… = (√3 + 1) / (√3 - 1) × (√3 + 1) / (√3 + 1)

… = (√3 + 1)² / ((√3)² - 1²)

… = ((√3)² + 2√3 + 1²) / (3 - 1)

… = (3 + 2√3 + 1) / 2

… = (4 + 2√3) / 2

… = 2 + √3 … … … (C)

If you insist on using the half-angle identity, recall that

sin²(x) = (1 - cos(2x))/2

cos²(x) = (1 + cos(2x))/2

==>   tan²(x) = (1 - cos(2x)) / (1 + cos(2x))

Let x = 5π/12. The angle x lies in the first quadrant, so we know tan(x) is positive.

==>   tan(x) = +√[(1 - cos(2x)) / (1 + cos(2x))]

We also know

cos(2x) = cos(5π/6) = -√3/2

which means

tan(x) = tan(5π/12) = √[(1 - (-√3/2)) / (1 + (-√3/2))]

… = √[(1 + √3/2) / (1 - √3/2)]

… = √[(2 + √3) / (2 - √3)]

… = √[(2 + √3) / (2 - √3) × (2 + √3) / (2 + √3)]

… = √[(2 + √3)² / (2² - (√3)²)]

… = √[(2 + √3)² / (4 - 3)]

… = √[(2 + √3)²]

… = 2 + √3

Miguel is trying to find the height of a radio antenna on the roof of a local building. He stands at a horizontal distance of 22 meters from the building. The angle of elevation from his eyes to the roof (point A) is 26 degrees , and the angle of elevation from his eyes to the top of the antenna ( oint B) is 31 degrees If his eyes are 1.53 meters from the ground, find the height of the antenna (the distance from point A to point B). Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a meter if necessary.

Answers

Given the 22 m. horizontal distance and the angles of elevation of 26°

and 31° gives the height of the building as approximately 2.49 meters.

How can the height of the building be found?

Horizontal distance from the building = 22 m

Angle of elevation to the top of the roof = 26°

Angle of elevation to the top of the antenna = 31°

Height of his eyes from the ground = 1.53 m

Required:

The height of the antenna.

Solution:

In a right triangle, we have relative to an angle of the triangle, we have;

Opposite side = Adjacent side

Height of the building + Height of antenna = [tex]1.53 + 22 \times tan \left(31^{\circ} \right)[/tex] ≈ 14.75

Which gives;

Height of the building = [tex]1.53 + 22 \times tan \left(26^{\circ} \right)[/tex] ≈ 12.26

Height of antenna = Height of the building + Height of antenna - Height of the building

Therefore;

Height of the antenna ≈ 14.75 - 12.26 ≈ 2.49

Height of the antenna ≈ 2.49 m

Answers

Answer:

1. x = 54, y = 114,

missing angles => 66° and 114°

2. x = 42, y = 14,

Missing angles => 84°, 86°

3. x = 40, y = 50

Missing angles => 105°, 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. y° = 114° (corresponding angles are congruent)

(x + 12)° + y° = 180° (linear pair angles)

Substitute

x + 12 + 114 = 180

x + 126 = 180

Subtract 126 from each side

x = 180 - 126

x = 54

✔️Find the missing angles by plugging in the values of x and y in each case

(x + 12)° = 54 + 12 = 66°

y = 114°

2. ✔️Find x:

(2x)° + 96° = 180° (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)

Subtract 96 from each side

2x = 180 - 96

2x = 84

x = 84/2

x = 42

✔️Find y:

(3y + 44)° + 94° = 180° (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)

3y + 44 + 94 = 180

3y + 138 = 180

3y = 180 - 138

3y = 42

y = 42/3

y = 14

✔️Missing angles:

(2x)°

Plug in the value of x

= 2(42) = 84°

(3y + 44)°

Plug in the value of y

3(14) + 44 = 86°

3.

✔️Find x:

3x - 15 = 105 (corresponding angles are congruent)

3x = 105 + 15

3x = 120

x = 120/3

x = 40

✔️Find y:

(3x - 15)° + (y + 25)° = 180° (linear pair angles are supplementary)

Plug in the value of x to solve for y

3(40) - 15 + y + 25 = 180

120 - 15 + y + 25 = 180

Add like terms

130 + y = 180

y = 180 - 130

y = 50

✔️Missing angles:

(3x - 15)°

Plug in the value of x

3(40) - 15 = 105°

(y + 25)°

Plug in the value of y

50 + 25 = 75°

What is equation?

An equation is a  mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.  In its simplest form in algebra, the definition of an equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal. For instance, 3x + 5 = 14 is an equation, in which 3x + 5 and 14 are two expressions separated by an 'equal' sign.

here, we have,

given that, the system of equations.

6h-2k=9.......(1)

3h+4k=12 ...........(2)

now, for solving, multiply (1) by 2 & add with  (2),

we get,

12h - 4k = 18

3h + 4k = 12

---------------------

15h = 30

The rate of change :

Rate of change = Rise / Run

Rise = y2 - y1 ; Run = x2 - x1

From the table :

Take number of sodas as X - axis

Total cost as Y - axis

Taking the points :

(24, 18) ;(36, 27)

x1 = 24 ; x2 = 36

y1 = 18 ; y2 = 27

Rise = (y2 - y1) = (27 - 18) = 9

Run = (x2 - x1) = (36 - 24) = 12

Rate of change = 9 / 12 = 0.75

A man invests $ 16800 in savings plan that pays simple interest at a rate of 5% per annum. Find the Tim’s taken for his investment to grow to $18900

Answers

Answer:

2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The given amount invested, which is the principal, P = $16,800

The simple interest rate, R = 5% per annum

The intended total value of the investment, A = $18,900

The simple interest on the principal, I = A - P

∴ I = $18,900 - $16,800 = $2,100

The formula for the simple interest, I, is given as follows;

[tex]I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}[/tex]

Therefore, we have;

[tex]T = \dfrac{I \times 100}{P \times R}[/tex]

Plugging in the values, gives;

[tex]T = \dfrac{2,100 \times 100}{16,800 \times 5} =2.5[/tex]

The time it will take the investment to grow to $18,900 is T = 2.5 years
