- Find the unknown value. 27. y varies jointly with x and the cube root of 2. If when x=2 and z=27,y=12, find y if x=5 and z=8.arrow_forwardThe length a spring stretches varies directly with a weight placed at the end of the spring. When Meredith placed a 6-pound cantaloupe on a hanging scale, the spring stretched 2 inches. How far would the spring stretch if the cantaloupe weighed 9 pounds?arrow_forwardFind the intensity of light at a depth of 12 meter if I0=14 and k=0.7. Round to two decimals.arrow_forward
- The kinetic energy E of an object varies jointly with the object’s mass m and the square of the object’s velocity v . An object with a mass of 50 kilograms traveling at 16 meters per second has a kinetic energy of 6400 joules. What is the kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 70 kilograms traveling at 20 meters per second?arrow_forwardThe astronauts of Expedition 28 on the International Space Station spend 15 weeks in space. Convert the time to minutes.arrow_forwardThe ideal diameter of a rod needed for a machine is 75 mm. The actual diameter can vary from the ideal diameterby 0.05 mm. What range of diameters will be acceptable to the customer without causing the rod to be rejected?arrow_forward
- The number N of beavers in a given area after x years can be approximated by N=5.5100.23x,0x10. Use the model to approximate how many years it will take for the beaver population to reach 78.arrow_forwardAssume that an object tossed vertically upward reaches a height of h feet after t seconds, where h=100t16t2. What is that maximum height?arrow_forwardBen starts walking along a path at 4 mi/h. One and a half hours after Ben leaves, his sister Amanda begins jogging along the same path at 6 mi/h. How long will it be before Amanda catches up to Ben?arrow_forward
- A 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_forwardSolve each problem. w is directly proportional to z. If w=-6 when z=2, find w when z=-3.arrow_forwardExplain the meaning of G(4,3,2) and calculate its value.arrow_forward
