<u>Answer:</u>

29 years

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  • Given the function f(x)= 200(0.5)^{\frac{x}{50} }, where x stands for the number of years since the material was put into the vault, we can plug 140 into x to find the amount leftover.
  • Another way of doing this is to change the function to f(x)=200(0.5^{\frac{1}{50} })^{x} which are equivalent functions, and then plug 140 into x. This function is helpful if you also needed to find the rate.
  • I'll use the 1st function because the question doesn't ask for the rate

f(x)= 200(0.5)^\frac{140}{50}}

From here I'll just use a calculator & get 28.7, or 29 years.

A geologist noticed that a land along a fault line moved 24.8 centimeters over the past 175 years . On average, how much did the
olasank [31]

Answer:

On average, the land moved 0,14 cm each year.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know how much did, on average, the land move,  we should divide the total number of cm over the total number of years:

x=24.8 cm/175 years

x=0,1417 cm each year

If we divide years over cm we will get x in years each cm, which is wrong.

Because the problem asks for the answer rounded to the hundredths place:

x= 0,14 cm each year
