HW 6.7 #11
Find the half-life of an element which decays by 3.418% each day. Hint: use y = ab^t.

Answers

Answer 1

First setup the equation for how much element is remaining after each day:

 y = a ( 100% - 3.418%)^t

where y is the amount remainig and t is the number of days

We can clean this up by subtracting the percentages and converting that to a decimal:

  y = a (0.96582)^t

Now for the half-life, we need to figure out how long until there's half of what we started with.  When does "a (0.96582)^t" equal "1/2 of a"

1/2a = a (0.96582)^t

divide by a on both sides and you get

1/2  = (0.96582)^t

take the log of both sides and you get:

log(1/2) = t log(0.96582)

divide both sides by log(0.96582)

 log(1/2) / log(0.96582) = t

Throw that into a calculator and you have

 t ≈ 19.93

Is 7164 divisible by 6?

yes?
no?

Answers

Answer:

yes

7164 is divisible bt 6

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Any number will be divisible by 6 if they be divisible by 2 & 3

- we know 7164 is divisible by 2

- also any number which sum of their digits are divisible by 3, the number will be divisible by 3

in this case (7164) 7+1+6+4=18 & 18 is divisible by 3 so 7164 is divisible by 3 as well.

so 7164 is divisible by 6

To find the slope, find 2 point on the graphs labels (x1,y1) and (x2,y2). Then use the slope equation (y2-y1/x2-x1) to find the slope

So our first point would be (-3,2) and (0,1)

Use the smaller point as x1 and y1

Use the other point as x2 and y2

Plug it into the slope equation

The slope is -1/3

You can also find this by using rise over run

Find out 2 points, then see how many moves you need to make to get there
Like this one, you go 1 down, and 3 left to get to another point down.
This would equal -1/3 since you go 1 in the negative direction and 3 in the positive direction.

At Crescent High School, 108 students plan on going to an in-state college and 63 students plan on going to an out-of-state college. What is the ratio of students planning on going to an in-state college to students planning on going to an out-of-state college?
A.
12:7
B.
108:1
C.
7:12
D.
1:108

Answers

Answer:  Choice A)  12:7

Explanation:

The ratio we want to find can be thought of in the form in:out

We list the number of "in-state" people first followed by the "out-of-state" people next. A colon separates the two values. So we have the initial ratio of 108:63

Divide both parts by the GCF 9

108/9 = 1263/9 = 7

The ratio 108:63 fully reduces to 12:7 meaning there are 12 in-state students for every 7 out-of-state students. The order is important because 7:12 would be incorrect and imply we had 7 in-state vs 12 out-of-state.

Answer:

1 inch = 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{2 inches}{8 feet} = \frac{1 inch}{4 feet}[/tex]

If we divide the given numbers by two (dividing on both sides keeps the equation true), we get 1 inch/4 feet. This tells us that on the scale, one inch is representative of four feet.

d. n=
1

Answers

Answer:

Option D)  [tex]\huge\sf{n\:=\:\frac{(T\:-\:15)}{c}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation, T = 15 + c × n, where:

T = represents the total monthly gym cost

c =  represents the additional charge for a group class, and

n = represents the number of group classes attended

Solution:

In order to determine which equation can be used to find the number of group classes a customer attended, if there are given values for c and T, we must isolate the variable, n  algebraically.

The first step is to subtract 15 from both sides:

T = 15 + c × n

T - 15 = 15 - 15 + c × n

T - 15 = c × n

Next, divide both sides by c to isolate n :

[tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{({T\:-\:15})}{c}\:=\:\frac{{c\:\times\:n}}{c}}[/tex]

[tex]\huge\sf{n\:=\:\frac{(T\:-\:15)}{c}}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D) [tex]\huge\sf{n\:=\:\frac{(T\:-\:15)}{c}}[/tex].

Answer:

  63

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of seats in a row will give an arithmetic sequence:

  6, 9, 12, 15, ...

The first term is 6; the common difference is 3. The general term is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1) . . . . . . n-th term of sequence with first term a1, difference d

The 20th term of the sequence is ...

  a20 = 6 +3(20 -1) = 6 +57 = 63

There would be 63 seats on the 20th row.

Which equation, in slope-intercept form, matches the equation shown?

Question 4 options:


y=47x−4


y=56x+1


y=−56x−4


y=−47x+1


Please help!

Answers

Answer: i think it is y=−56x−4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in the slope intercept form which passes through the points ( 0, -4 ) and ( 6 , 9 ) is y = (-5 / 6)x - 4.

The correct answer is Option C.

Given data:

To find the equation of a line in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) that passes through the points (0, -4) and (6, -9), we need to determine the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b).

First, calculate the slope (m):

m = (change in y) / (change in x)

m = (-9 - (-4)) / (6 - 0)

m = (-9 + 4) / 6

m = -5 / 6

Now that we have the slope, we can use one of the given points (let's use (0, -4)) to solve for the y-intercept (b):

-4 = (-5 / 6) * 0 + b

-4 = b

So, the y-intercept (b) is -4.

Now, we can write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:

y = (-5 / 6)x - 4

Hence, the equation of the line is y = (-5 / 6)x - 4.

The length of a rectangle is 5 more than twice the width. Which equation could represent the area of the rectangle in terms of the width?

Answers

Answer:

l=5+2w

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length is twice the width plus 5, the equation would look like :

l=5+2w

A=lw

w=width

2w+5=length

42=w(2w+5)

42=2w2+5w

2w2+5w-42=0

use the quadratic equation

(-5+√25+336)/4

(-5+√361)/4

(-5+19)/4

14/4=3.5

w=3.5 m

lennys lizard weighs 6 pound less than duble the laura's lizard lennys weighs 60 pounds find the weight of lauras lizard

Answers

(Me, going to answer the easy questions because hard ones give me headaches)

Alright, listen up.

Steps:

First step: 60 is Lenny's lizard weight. Since it said 6 pounds less than double the lizard weight, we are going to multiply 60 by 2, therefore it would be 120.

Next step: Now 6 pounds less, so we are going to subtract 6 from that 120. 120 - 6 = 114.

Last step...: Label/answer: Lenny's lizard weight is 114 pounds.

Answer:

Laura’s lizard weights 33 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2x be Laura’s lizard and

Let 2x - 6 be Lenny’s lizard

We know Lenny’s lizard is 60 pounds. Now to find Laura’s , equate( 2x - 6 )to 60 and solve for x

60 = 2x - 6

x =33

Therefore 33 is the answer
