11. Commercial jets fly between 30,000 ft and 36,000 ft. About how many hours of growing could
pass before the beanstalk might interfere with commercial aircrafts? Explain how you got your
answer

Respuesta :

An exponential function is a function that increases rapidly as the time increases.

  • The number of hours that passes before the magical beanstalk interferes with commercial flight is approximately 9.384 hours.

Reasons:

The function that gives the height of a beanstalk is presented as follows;

b(t) = [tex]3^t[/tex]

When the height is 30,000 ft., we have;

30,000 = [tex]3^t[/tex]

㏑(30,000) = t·㏑(3)

[tex]\displaystyle t = \mathbf{\frac{ln(30,000)}{ln(3)}} \approx 9.384[/tex]

The time it would take the beanstalk to grow 30,000 ft., t ≈ 9.384 hours

Similarly, the time it would take the beanstalk to grow to 36,000 ft. is found as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle t_{36,000} = \mathbf{\frac{ln(36,000)}{ln(3)}} \approx 9.55[/tex]

The time it would take the beanstalk to grow 36,000 ft., t ≈ 9.55 hours

The number of hours it will take the beanstalk to grow to 30,000 feet at

which it might interfere with commercial aircrafts is 9.384 hours.
