Answer:
The half-life of this substance is of 569.27 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of a substance after t days:
The amount of a substance after t days is given by:
[tex]P(t) = P(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]
In which P(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.
Suppose a sample of a certain substance decayed to 69.4% of its original amount after 300 days.
This means that [tex]P(300) = 0.694P(0)[/tex]. We use this to find k.
[tex]P(t) = P(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]
[tex]0.694 = P(0)e^{-300k}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-300k} = 0.694[/tex]
[tex]\ln{e^{-300k}} = \ln{0.694}[/tex]
[tex]-300k = \ln{0.694}[/tex]
[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{0.694}}{300}[/tex]
[tex]k = 0.0012[/tex]
So
[tex]P(t) = P(0)e^{-0.0012t}[/tex]
What is the half-life (in days) of this substance?
This is t for which P(t) = 0.5P(0). So
[tex]0.5P(0) = P(0)e^{-0.0012t}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.0012t} = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]\ln{e^{-0.0012t}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]-0.0012t = \ln{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{0.0012}[/tex]
[tex]t = 569.27[/tex]
The half-life of this substance is of 569.27 days.
Salma invested $8000 in a fund for 6 years and was paid simple interest. The total interest that she received on the investment was $1400. As a percentage, what was the annual interest rate of her investment?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
about 2.917%
Step-by-step explanation:
The simple interest formula can be used. Fill in the known values and solve for the unknown.
I = Prt . . . . principal P invested at rate r for t years
1400 = 8000(r)(6)
r = 1400/48000 = 7/240 = 0.0291666...
Salma's interest rate was about 2.917% per year.
Ann, Bob, Carol, and Denis own a candy store. After a large argument, they decide to dissolve their partnership using the sealed bid method. Ann bids $320,000 for the store, Bob bids $440,000 for it, Carol bids $240,000 for it, and Denis bids $400,000 for it.
Required:
a. What is Bob's fair share?
b. What is Carol's fair share?
c. What is Denis's fair share?
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given points:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]Ann=\$3,20,000\\\\Bob=\$4,40,000\\\\Carol=\$240,000\\\\Denis= \$4,00,000\\\\[/tex]
Each player's offer divided by the total number of players calculates the fair share
Ann's fair share [tex]= \frac{\$320,000}{4} = \$80,000\\\\[/tex]
Bob's fair share[tex]= \frac{\$440,000}{4} = \$110,000\\\\[/tex]
Carol's fair share [tex]= \frac{\$240,000}{4} = \$60,000\\\\[/tex]
Denis's fair share [tex]= \frac{\$400,000}{4} = \$100,000\\\\[/tex]
Because Bob has the highest bid, that receives in the business.
Payments:
Ann [tex]\$80,000[/tex] paid by estate
Bob [tex]= \$440,000 - \$110,000 = \$330,000[/tex] owes estate
Carol [tex]= \$60,000[/tex] paid by estate
Denis [tex]= \$100,000[/tex] paid by estate
Surplus [tex]= \$330,000 - (\$80,000+\$60,000+ \$100,000) = \$90,000[/tex]
Splitting the equally among the four players. therefore one of the each receives:
[tex]\frac{\$90,000}{4}= \$22,500[/tex]
The final settlement of the Ann receives:
[tex]= \$80,000+ \$22,500 = \$102,500[/tex]

AVX Home Entertainment Inc recently began a "no-hassles" return policy. A sample of 505 customers who recently returned items showed 320 thought the policy was fair, 150 thought it took too long to complete the transaction, and the rest had no opinion. On the basis of this information, make an inference about customer reaction to the new policy. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)
Customer reaction Percent
Fair %
Too long %
No opinion %
Answer:
[tex]Fair = 63.4\%[/tex]
[tex]Too\ Long = 29.7\%[/tex]
[tex]No\ Opinion =6.9\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Total=505[/tex] --- customers
[tex]Fair = 320[/tex]
[tex]Too\ Long = 150[/tex]
Required
Complete the table
To complete the table, we simply divide each value by the total number of customers.
So, we have:
[tex]Fair = 320[/tex]
[tex]Fair = \frac{320}{505}[/tex]
[tex]Fair = 0.634[/tex]
Express as percentage
[tex]Fair = 0.634*100\%[/tex]
[tex]Fair = 63.4\%[/tex]
[tex]Too\ Long = 150[/tex]
[tex]Too\ Long = \frac{150}{505}[/tex]
[tex]Too\ Long = 0.297[/tex]
Express as percentage
[tex]Too\ Long = 0.297*100\%[/tex]
[tex]Too\ Long = 29.7\%[/tex]
For the last set, the percentage is calculated using:
[tex]No\ Opinion + Fair + Too\ Long = 100\%[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]No\ Opinion + 63.4\% + 29.7\% = 100\%[/tex]
[tex]No\ Opinion + 93.1\% = 100\%[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]No\ Opinion =- 93.1\% + 100\%[/tex]
[tex]No\ Opinion =6.9\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find a equation that is where the domain is all real numbers and the range is all real numbers greater than -3
A square root function cannot equal to all real numbers because we cant take the square root of a negative number. so B and C are already wrong.A cubic function range is all real numbers. so y can be greater than -3 but it would also include. values lesser than -3. so D is Wrong.A is right, the domain of a absolute value function is all real numbers. The range of a absolute value is all numbers greater than or equal to zero but if we subtract 3, it changes into all real numbers greater than or equal to -3

Additional comment
Multiplication by a negative number has the effect of re-ordering numbers:
-1 < 2 . . . 1 > -2 (both sides multiplied by -1)
Other functions can have the same effect, so care must be taken when applying functions to both sides of an inequality.
1/2 > 1/3 . . . 2 < 3 (reciprocal function applied to both sides)
30° < 60° . . . cos(30°) > cos(60°) (cosine function applied to both sides)

Use the definition of a Taylor series to find the first four nonzero terms of the series for f(x) centered at the given value of a. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)
f(x) = 7/1+x a=2
If f(x) = 7/(1 + x), then
f (2) = 7/3
f '(x) = -7/(x + 1)² ==> f ' (2) = -7/9
f ''(x) = 14/(x + 1)³ ==> f '' (2) = 14/27
f '''(x) = -42/(x + 1)⁴ ==> f ''' (2) = -14/27
Then the Taylor series of f(x) about a = 2 is
7/3 + 1/1! (-7/9) (x - 2) + 1/2! (14/27) (x - 2)² + 1/3! (-14/27) (x - 2)³
= 7/3 - 7/9 (x - 2) + 7/27 (x - 2)² - 7/81 (x - 2)³

Answer:
The answers to your questions are given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. m∠1 and m∠2 are complementary. This statement was given from the question.
2. m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°. Complementary angles add up to give 90°.
3. m∠2 = 74°. This was given in the question.
4. m∠1 + 74 = 90°. Since m∠1 and m∠2 are complementary. Their sum will add up to give 90°
5. m∠1 = 16°
We can prove m∠1 = 16° as shown below:
m∠1 + m∠2 = 90° (complementary angles)
m∠2 = 74°
m∠1 + 74 = 90°
Collect like terms
m∠1 = 90 – 74
m∠1 = 16°
Rewrite the function f(x)=16^x in four different ways, using a different base in each case.
Answer:
X=1
f(x)=16^1
=16
X=2
f(x)=16^2
256
X=3
f(x)=16^3
=4096
X=4
f(x)=16^4
=65536
Here are four different ways to rewrite the function f(x) = 16^x, using a different base for each case:
Using base 2:
f(x) = (2^4)^x = 2^(4x)
Using base 3:
f(x) = (3^2)^x = 3^(2x)
Using base 10:
f(x) = (10^(log10(16)))^x = 10^(log10(16) * x)
Using base e (natural logarithm):
f(x) = (e^(ln(16)))^x = e^(ln(16) * x)
How to explain the functionIn these rewritten forms, the exponentiation of the base is expressed as a simpler expression.
This involves the new base, which helps to illustrate the relationship between the original function and the different bases used.

A certain prescription drug diminishes in the system at a rate of 25% per hour. If a person was administered 1450mg of the drug, how much will remain in 4 hours? How many hours will it take for the amount of the drug in their system to be less than 5mg?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
459 mgabout 20 hoursStep-by-step explanation:
The decay factor is 1 -25% = 0.75 per hour, so the exponential equation can be written ...
r(t) = 1450·0.75^t . . . . . milligrams remaining after t hours
__
a) After 4 hours, the amount remaining is ...
r(4) = 1450·0.75^4 ≈ 458.79 . . . mg
About 459 mg will remain after 4 hours.
__
b) To find the time it takes before the amount remaining is less than 5 mg, we need to solve ...
r(t) < 5
1450·0.75^t < 5 . . . . use the function definition
0.75^t < 5/1450 . . . . divide by 1450
t·log(0.75) < log(1/290) . . . . . take logarithms (reduce fraction)
t > log(1/290)/log(0.75) . . . . . divide by the (negative) coefficient of t

Think of a two-digit number. What is the probability that it has different digits?
Answer:
9/10
Step-by-step explanation:
The first two digit number is 10 and the last is 99. That's a total of 99-10+1 numbers in all. That simplifies to 90. (Just like if we wanted to see how many numbers was 3,4,5, we would do 5-3+1=3 to get the total number.
Anyways, let's consider first how many 2 digjt numbers whose digits are equal. You have 11 22,33,44 55,66,77,88,99 which is 9 numbers total.
So the amount of 2 digits number whose digits differ is 90-9=81.
The probability that a 2 digit number have different digits is 81/90.
This can reduce. Divide top and bottom by 9 giving 9/10.
