- Heart Disease In a certain country, the number of deaths due to heart disease decreased from 235 in one year to 221 in the next year. What percentage decrease in deaths due to heart disease does this represent?arrow_forwardStock Turnover at Retail In retail sales, an important marker of retail activity is the stock turnover at retail. This figure is calculated for a specific period of time as the total net sales divided by the retail value of the average stock during that time, where both are measured in dollars. As a formula, this is written Stockturnover=NetsalesAveragestockatretail. This formula expresses stock turnover as a function of net sales and average stock at retail. a. Suppose that your store had net sales of 682, 000 in mens shoes over the past six months and that the retail value of the average stock of mens shoes was 163, 000. What was the stock turnover at retail for that time period? b. Suppose that in a certain month, your stores net sales of womens dresses were 83, 000 and that the usual stock turnover at retail is 0.8 per month. What do you estimate to be your stores average stock at retail? c. Solve the equation for average stock at retail- that is, write a formula giving average stock at retail as a function of stock turnover and net sales. d. Suppose that in a certain time period, your store had an average stock of socks with a retail value of 45, 000 and a stock turnover at retail of 1.6. What were the stores net sales of socks during that time period? e. Solve the equation for net sales- that is, write a formula giving net sales as a function of stock turnover and average stock at retail.arrow_forwardForensics At 8:30 A.M., a coroner went to the home of a person who had died during the night. In order to estimate the time of death, the coroner took the person’s temperature twice. At 9:00 A.M. the temperature was 85.7F, and at 11:00 A.M. the temperature was 82.8F. From these two temperatures, the coroner was able to determine that the time elapsed since death and the body temperature were related by the formula t=10lnT7098.670 where t is the time in hours elapsed since the person died and T is the temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) of the person’s body. (This formula comes from a general cooling principle called Newton’s Law of Cooling. It uses the assumptions that the person had a normal body temperature of 98.6F at death and that the room temperature was a constant 70F.) Use the formula to estimate the time of death of the person.arrow_forward
- Carbon Dating The ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 in a piece of wood discovered in a cave is R=1/814. Estimate the age of the piece of wood.arrow_forwardGrade Point Average In many universities students are given grade points for each credit unit according to the following scale: A 4 points B 3 points C 2 points D 1 point F 0 point For example, a grade of A in a 3-unit course earns 43=12 grade points and a grade of B in a 5-unit course earns 35=15 grade points. A students grade point average GPA for these two courses is the total number of grade points earned divided by the number of units; in this case the GPA is (12+15)8=3.375. a Find a formula for the GPA of a student who earns a grade of A in a units of course work, B in b units, C in c units, D in d units and F in f units. b Find the GPA of a student who has earned a grade of A in two 3-unit courses, B in one 4-unit courses and C in three 3-unit courses.arrow_forwardUsing the data in Example 12, how much radon-222 will remain after one year?arrow_forward
- Depreciation Once a new car is driven away from the dealer, it begins to lose value. Each year, a car loses 10% of its value. This means that each year the value of a car is 90% of the previous year’s value. If a new car was purchased for $20,000, the value at the end of the first year would be $20000(0.90) and the value of the car after the end of the second year would be $20000(0.90)2. Complete the table shown below. What will be the value of the car at the end of the eighth year? Simplify the expression, to show the value in dollars.arrow_forwardDrug Concentration When a drug is administered orally, it takes some time before the blood concentration reaches its maximum level. After that time, concentration levels decrease. When 500 milligrams of procainamide is administered orally, one model for a particular patient gives blood concentration C, in milligrams per liter, after t hours as C=2.65(e0.2te2t) What is the maximum blood-level concentration, and when does that level occur?arrow_forwardpH of Saliva The pH of saliva is normally in the range of 6.4 to 7.0. However, when a person is ill, the persons saliva becomes more acidic. a When Marco is sick, he tests the pH of his saliva and finds that it is 5.5. What is the hydrogen ion concentration of his saliva? b Will the hydrogen ion concentration in Marcos saliva increase or decrease as he gets better? c After Marco recovers, he tests the pH of his saliva, and it is 6.5. Was the saliva more acidic or less acidic when he was sick?arrow_forward
- Aerobic Power Aerobic power can be thought of as the maximum oxygen consumption attainable per kilogram of body mass. There are a number of ways in which physical educators estimate this. One method uses the Queens College Step Test. In this test, males step up and down a 16-inch bleacher step 24 times per minute for 3 minutes, and females do 22 steps per minute for 3 minutes. Five seconds after the exercise is complete, a 15-second pulse count P is taken. Maximum oxygen consumption M, in milliliters per kilogram, for males is approximated by M=111.3-1.68P. For females, the recommended formula is F=65.81-0.74P. a. Calculate the maximum oxygen consumption for both a male and a female who show a 15-second pulse count of 40. b. What 15-second pulse count for a male will indicate a maximum oxygen consumption of 35.7 milliliters per kilogram? c. What 15-second pulse count will indicate the same maximum oxygen consumption for a male as for a female? d. What maximum oxygen consumption is associated with your answer in part c?arrow_forwardAPPLICATIONS Sharing a Job Betty and Karen have been hired to paint the houses in a new development. Working together, the women can paint a house in two-thirds the time that it takes Karen working alone. Betty takes 6 h to paint a house alone. How long does it take Karen to paint a house working alone?arrow_forwardUsing the model in Example 6, estimate the number of cases of flu on day 15.arrow_forward
