An N-scale model railroad caboose is 3 inches long. N scale is 169 feet to 1 foot.


Let c represent the length of a real caboose. Write a proportion, in terms of c, that can be used to solve for the length of a real caboose. (Hint: Compare feet to inches. How many inches are in one foot?)


How long (in feet) is a real caboose?

ft

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

c/3 = 169/1242 1/4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want to know the actual number of feet, we can write the proportion with that in the numerator.

  [tex]\dfrac{\text{actual feet}}{\text{scale inches}}=\boxed{\dfrac{c}{3}=\dfrac{169}{12}}\\\\c=\dfrac{3\cdot169}{12}=42\frac{1}{4}\qquad\text{multiply by 3}[/tex]

The real caboose is 42 1/4 feet long.

FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters.

FH = FG + GH

explain how to solve it please

Answers

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

3x + 2 = 4x + 5

3x + 2 - 2 = 4x + 5 - 2

Step 2.

Simplify. Subtract the numbers 3x =4x + 3

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

Combine like terms -x = 3

Divide both sides of the equation.

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

Divide the numbers

And that's how X = -3

In​ 2012, the population of a city was 5.82 million. The exponential growth rate was 2.95% per year.
​a) Find the exponential growth function.
​b) Estimate the population of the city in 2018.
​c) When will the population of the city be ​million?
​d) Find the doubling time.

Answers

Answer:

a) P(t) = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=6.57e

0.0287t

b) P(6) = 7,805\ millionP(6)=7,805 million

c) t = 14.64\ yearst=14.64 years

d) t = 24.15\ yearst=24.15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The function of exponential growth for a population has the following formula:

P(t) = p_0e ^{rt}P(t)=p

0

e

rt

In this equation:

p_0p

0

is the initial population

r is the growth rate

t is the time in years

In this problem we know that

r = 2.87\% = 0.0287r=2.87%=0.0287

p_0= 6.57p

0

=6.57 million in the year 2012.

So the equation is:

P(t) = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=6.57e

0.0287t

Where t = 0t=0 represents the year 2012

b) If t = 0t=0 in 2012, then in 2018 t = 6t=6

The population in 2018 is:

\begin{gathered}P(t = 6) = 6.57e ^{0.0287(6)}\\\\P(6) = 7,805\ million\end{gathered}

P(t=6)=6.57e

0.0287(6)

P(6)=7,805 million

c) To know when the population is equal to 10 million we must equal P(t) to 10 and solve for t.

\begin{gathered}P(t) = 10 = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}\\\\\frac{10}{6.57} = e ^{0.0287t}\\\\ln(\frac{10}{6.57}) = 0.0287t\\\\t = \frac{ln(\frac{10}{6.57})}{0.0287}\end{gathered}

P(t)=10=6.57e

0.0287t

6.57

10

=e

0.0287t

ln(

6.57

10

)=0.0287t

t=

0.0287

ln(

6.57

10

)

t = 14.64\ yearst=14.64 years

d) The function is doubled when P(t) = 2p_0P(t)=2p

0

P(t) = 2(6.57) = 13.14 = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=2(6.57)=13.14=6.57e

0.0287t

We solve for t.

\begin{gathered}\frac{13.14}{6.57} = e ^{0.0287t}\\\\ln(\frac{13.14}{6.57}) = 0.0287t\\\\t = ln{13.14}{6.57})}{0.0287})\

end

{gathered}

6.57

13.14

=e

0.0287t

ln(

6.57

13.14

)=0.0287t

t=

t = 24.15\ yearst=24.15 years
