Answer:

A(t) = amount remaining in t years

= A0ekt, where A0 is the initial amount and k is a constant to be determined.

Since A(1690) = (1/2)A0 and A0 = 80,

we have 40 = 80e1690k

1/2 = e1690k

ln(1/2) = 1690k

k = -0.0004

So, A(t) = 80e-0.0004t

Therefore, A(430) = 80e-0.0004(430)

= 80e-0.172

≈ 67.4 g

Answer:

The required formula is:

$\ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of squares of the the first term = 4

The total number of squares of the the second term = 7

The total number of squares of the the third term = 10

so,

$a_1=4$

$a_2=7$

$a_3=10$

Finding the common difference d

$d=a_3-a_2=10-7=3$

$d=a_2-a_1=7-4=3$

As the common difference 'd' is same, it means the sequence is in arithmetic.

If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is $a_{1}$ and the common difference of successive members is d, then the nth term of the sequence $(a_n)$ is given by:

$\ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Therefore, the required formula is:

$\ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Determine if Line AB and Line CD are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Show work.

IrinaK [193]

The full answer is so long. I’m too lazy to do it but i can tell u how.
First write the equation of line AB then equation of line CD then compare the slope of both line AB and CD.

The bottom left option is when it is reflected over the x axis, the second to last option on the left is when it is reflected of the y axis, and the middle option is when it is reflected over the line y = x

Hope this helps :)
