At 8:30 a.m., a coroner was called 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 84.2°F, and at 11:00 a.m. the temperature was 81.6°F. 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- 70 t = -10 In 98.6 - 70 where t is the time in hours elapsed since the person died and Tis the temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) of the person's body. (This formula is derived from a general cooling principle called Newton's Law of Cooling. It uses the assumptions that the person had a normal body temperature of 98.6°F at death, and that the room temperature was a constant 70°F.) Use the formula to estimate the time of death of the person. (Round your answer to the nearest hour.) A.M.

Question

At 8:30 a.m., a coroner was called 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 84.2°F, and at 11:00 a.m. the temperature was 81.6°F. 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- 70
t = -10 In
98.6 - 70
where t is the time in hours elapsed since the person died and Tis the temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) of the person's body. (This formula is derived from a general cooling
principle called Newton's Law of Cooling. It uses the assumptions that the person had a normal body temperature of 98.6°F at death, and that the room temperature was a
constant 70°F.) Use the formula to estimate the time of death of the person. (Round your answer to the nearest hour.)

Certain car manufacturers install a gauge that tells the driver how many miles they can drive until they will run out of gas. A study was conducted to test the accuracy of these gauges. Each driver was assigned a certain gauge reading until empty to watch for. When their car announced it had that many miles remaining until empty, they began to measure their distance traveled. After they ran out of gas, they reported the distance they were able to drive (in miles) as well as the gauge reading they were assigned (in miles). Here is computer output showing the regression analysis: Identify and interpret the slope of the regression line used for predicting the actual distance that can be driven based on the gauge reading. (A) Slope = 1.1889. The predicted distance the drivers were able to drive increases by 1.1889 miles for each additional mile reported by the gauge. (B) Slope = 0.0457. The predicted distance the drivers were able to drive increases by 0.0457 miles for each additional…
Andre sets up a rain gauge to measure rainfall in his back yard. On Tuesday, it rains offand on all day.He starts at 10 a.m. with an empty gauge when it starts to rain.Two hours later, he checks, and the gauge has 2 cm of water in it.It starts raining even harder, and at 4 p.m., the rain stops, so Andre checks the raingauge and finds it has 10 cm of water in it.While checking it, he accidentally knocks the rain gauge over and spills most of thewater, leaving only 3 cm of water in the rain gauge.When he checks for the last time at 5 p.m., there is no change. a. Which of the two graphs could represent Andre’s story? Explain your reasoning. b. Label the axes of the correct graph with appropriate units.c. Use the graph to determine how much total rain fell on Tuesday.
