Question 127357: Please help, I'm stuck!
(Modeling)
In electronics, circuit gain is modeled by
G = Bt/R + R(base)t
Where R is the value of the resistor, t is temperture, R(base)t is the value of R at room temperture t and B is constant. The sensitivity of the circuit to temperture is modeled by
S = BR/(R + R (base)t)^2
If B = 3.7 and t is 90 K, find the values of R and R (base)t that will make G = .4 and S = .001.
