- Hector invests $10,000 at age 21. He hopes the investments will be worth when he turns 50. If the interest compounds continuously, approximately what rate of growth Will he need to achieve his goal?arrow_forwardA driver of a car stopped at a gas station to fill up his gas tank. He looked at his watch, and the time read exactly 3:40 p.m. At this time, he started pumping gas into the tank. At exactly 3:44, the tank was full and he noticed that he had pumped 10.7 gallons. What is the average rate of flow of the gasoline into the gas tank?arrow_forwardThe population of a culture of bacteria is modeled by the logistic equation P(t)=14,2501+29e0.62t where t is inarrow_forward
- LIFE SCIENCE APPLICATION Kite Flying Christine O'Brien is flying her kite in a wind that is blowing it east at a rate of 50 ft per minute. She has already let out 200 ft of string, and the kite is flying 100 ft above her hand. How fast must she let out string at this moment to keep the kite flying with the same speed and altitude?arrow_forwardDefine Newton’s Law of Cooling. Then name at least three real-world situations where Newton’s Law of Cooling would be applied.arrow_forwardThe table shows the mid-year populations (in millions) of five countries in 2015 and the projected populations (in millions) for the year 2025. (a) Find the exponential growth or decay model y=aebt or y=aebt for the population of each country by letting t=15 correspond to 2015. Use the model to predict the population of each country in 2035. (b) You can see that the populations of the United States and the United Kingdom are growing at different rates. What constant in the equation y=aebt gives the growth rate? Discuss the relationship between the different growth rates and the magnitude of the constant.arrow_forward
