Step-by-step explanation:

$79.99 - $64.99 = $15

(79.99 - 64.99)/|79.99| =15

15/79.99 =

15 ÷ 79.99 =

15 ÷ 79.99 × 100/100 =

(15 × 100 ÷ 79.99)/100 =

(1,500 ÷ 79.99)/100

≈18.752344043005/100 =

18.752344043005% ≈18.75%;

Please help: A box contains 5 yellow balls, 3 blue, and 1 red ball. Two balls are drawn at random. Find the probability that:
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

a) 0.2778

b) 0.3611

c) 0.1389

d) 0.0833

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a total of 5 + 3 + 1 = 9 balls

a) First ball being yellow: we have 5 yellow balls, so P1 = 5/9

Second ball being yellow after one yellow was drawn: we have 4 yellows and 8 balls, so P2 = 4/8 = 1/2

Both yellows: P = P1 * P2 = 5/18 = 0.2778

b) Both blues:

P1 = 3/9 = 1/3

P2 = 2/8 = 1/4

P = P1 * P2 = 1/12 = 0.0833

Both yellows or both blues: 5/18 + 1/12 = 0.2778 + 0.0833 = 0.3611

c) First yellow: P1 = 5/9

Second red: P2 = 1/8

Pa = P1 * P2 = 5/72

or

First red: P3 = 1/9

Second yellow: P4 = 5/8

Pb = P3 * P4 = 5/72

P = Pa + Pb = 10/72 = 5/36 = 0.1389

d) First blue: P1 = 3/9 = 1/3

Second red: P2 = 1/8

Pa = P1 * P2 = 1/24

or

First red: P3 = 1/9

Second blue: P4 = 3/8

Pb = P3 * P4 = 1/24

P = Pa + Pb = 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833

Ben consumes an energy drink that contains caffeine. After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decr
Airida [17]

Answer:

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

Step-by-step explanation:

After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decreases exponentially.

This means that the amount of caffeine after t hours is given by:

A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722.

1 - 0.2722 = 0.7278, thus, A(10) = 0.7278A(0). We use this to find k.

A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}

0.7278A(0) = A(0)e^{-10k}

e^{-10k} = 0.7278

\ln{e^{-10k}} = \ln{0.7278}

-10k = \ln{0.7278}

k = -\frac{\ln{0.7278}}{10}

k = 0.03177289938


Then

A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938t}

What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body?

We have to find find A(5), as a function of A(0). So

A(5) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938*5}

A(5) = 0.8531

The decay factor is:

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.
