Option 3: At t = 2.5 hours,

               D(2.5) = 875  Option Incorrect

Option 4: At t = 3 hours,

               D(3) = 875 Option Correct

Option 5: At t = 6 hours,

                D(6) = 75 X 6 + 612.5 = 450 + 612.5

Someone pls help me ASAP! Express the following as the sum of its partial fraction: 2x+4/x(x+2)(x-4)​

Answers

The sum of the partial fraction is [tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = -\frac 12 + \frac{1}{2(x -4)}[/tex]

How to express as partial fractions?

The expression is given as:

[tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)}[/tex]

As a partial fraction, we have:

[tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = \frac Ax + \frac{B}{x + 2} + \frac{C}{x -4}[/tex]

Take the LCM

[tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = \frac {A(x + 2)(x -4) +Bx(x -4) + Cx(x + 2)}{x(x + 2)(x -4)}[/tex]

This gives

2x + 4 = A(x + 2)(x -4) +Bx(x -4) + Cx(x + 2)

Expand

[tex]2x + 4 = A(x^2 - 2x - 8) + B(x^2 - 4x) + C(x^2 + 2x)[/tex]

Further expand

[tex]2x + 4 = Ax^2 - 2Ax - 8A + Bx^2 - 4Bx + Cx^2 + 2Cx[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]2x + 4 = Ax^2 + Bx^2 + Cx^2 - 2Ax - 4Bx + 2Cx - 8A[/tex]

By comparing the coefficients, we have:

A + B + C = 0

-2A - 4B + 2C = 2

-8A = 4

Divide both sides of -8A = 4 by -8

[tex]A = -\frac 12[/tex]

Substitute [tex]A = -\frac 12[/tex] in the other equations

[tex]-\frac 12 + B + C = 0[/tex]

[tex]B + C = \frac 12[/tex]

[tex]C = \frac 12 - B[/tex]

[tex]-2*- \frac 12 - 4B + 2C = 2[/tex]

1 - 4B + 2C = 2

- 4B + 2C = 1

Substitute [tex]C = \frac 12 - B[/tex] in - 4B + 2C = 1

[tex]- 4B + 2*\frac12 = 1[/tex]

- 4B + 1 = 1

Subtract 1 from both sides

-4B = 0

This gives

B = 0

Substitute B = 0 in [tex]C = \frac 12 - B[/tex]

[tex]C = \frac 12 - 0[/tex]

[tex]C = \frac 12[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]A = -\frac 12[/tex], B = 0 and [tex]C = \frac 12[/tex]

The equation [tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = \frac Ax + \frac{B}{x + 2} + \frac{C}{x -4}[/tex] becomes

[tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = -\frac 12 + \frac{0}{x + 2} + \frac{1}{2(x -4)}[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = -\frac 12 + \frac{1}{2(x -4)}[/tex]

Hence, the sum of the partial fraction is [tex]\frac{2x + 4}{x(x + 2)(x -4)} = -\frac 12 + \frac{1}{2(x -4)}[/tex]

A paper is 0.55 mm thick. How high pile of 274 sheets? The paper is 24.5 long and 18.5 cm wide. Calculate volume of the pile of paper.​

Answers

The height of the pile is 150.7 mm, and the volume is V = 6,830,477.5 mm³.

How high will be the pile of papers?

We know that each paper is 0.55mm thick, then if we pile 274 of these, the height of the pile will be:

H = 0.55mm*274 = 150.7mm

Now we want to get the volume of the pile of paper. Remember that for a rectangular prism of height H, width W, and length L, the volume is:

V = H*W*L

In this case, we have:

H = 150.7mmW = 18.5 cm = 185 mmL = 24.5 cm = 245 mm

Then the volume is:

V = (150.7mm)*(185 mm)*(245 mm) = 6,830,477.5 mm³

What is flow network?

A flow network is a directed graph with each edge having a capacity and each edge receiving a flow, according to graph theory. The amount of flow on an edge must not exceed the edge's capacity.

Let's suppose the network flow is given by;

G = (V, E)

With edge capacity:

c: E → R

A scale model of a rectangular plot of land is 13 inches long by 12 inches wide. If the actual length of this plot is 780 feet, what is its actual area, in square feet?

A) 9360
B) 121,680
C) 406,080
D) 561,600

Please explain step-by-step

Answers

By finding the scale factor of the model, we will see that the area is 561,600 square feet.

How to find the area of the plot of land?

On the model, the length is 13 inches, and the actual length is 780 ft, then the scale factor is:

k = (780ft)/(13 in) = 60 ft/in

This means that each inch in the model is equal to 60ft in the actual plot of land.

Then the width is:

W = (12in)*( 60 ft/in) =  720 ft

And the area is the product between length and width, so we have:

A = (780ft)*(720ft) = 561,600 ft²

Then the correct option is D.

In the second year and the third year the car depreciates by 15%
Work out the value of the car after three years.

Answers

The value of the car after three years is £6936

How to determine the value of the car?

The initial value of the car is given as:

Value =  £12000

When the value depreciates by 20% after the first year, the new value of the car is:

New =  £12000 * (1 - 20%)

Evaluate

New =  £9600

When the value depreciates by 15% after the second year, the new value of the car is:

New =  £9600* (1 - 15%)

Evaluate

New =  £8160

When the value depreciates by 15% after the third year, the new value of the car is:

New =  £8160 * (1 - 15%)

New =  £6936
