What is the percent rate??

Mathematics
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]2 years ago
6 0

Using an exponential function, it is found that the decay rate is of 6.24% a year.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The half-life is of 10.75 years, hence A(10.75) = 0.5A(0) and this is used to find the decay rate r.

A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t

0.5A(0) = A(0)(1 - r)^{10.75}

(1 - r)^{10.75} = 0.5

\sqrt[10.75]{(1 - r)^{10.75}} = \sqrt[10.75]{0.5}

1 - r = (0.5)^{\frac{1}{10.75}}

1 - r = 0.9376.

r = 1 - 0.9376.

r = 0.0624.

The decay rate is of 6.24% a year.

How many extraneous solutions does the equation below have?
aev [14]

Answer:

A solution is said to be extraneous, if it is a zero of the equation, but it does not satisfy the equation,when substituted in the original equation,L.H.S≠R.H.S. 

The given equation consisting of  variable , m is

   \frac{2 m}{2 m+3} -\frac{2 m}{2 m-3}=1\\\\ 2 m[\frac{1}{2 m+3} -\frac{1}{2 m-3}]=1\\\\ 2 m\times \frac{[2 m-3 -2 m- 3]}{4m^2-9}=1\\\\ -6 \times 2 m=4 m^2 -9\\\\ 4 m^2 +1 2 m -9=0\\\\m=\frac{-12 \pm\sqrt{12^2-4 \times 4 \times (-9)}}{2\times 4}\\\\m=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt {144+144}}{8}\\\\m=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt {288}}{8}\\\\m=\frac{-12 \pm 12 \sqrt{2}}{8}\\\\m=\frac{3}{2}\times(-1 \pm \sqrt{2})

None of the two solution

m=\frac{3}{2}\times(-1 +\sqrt{2}) and , m=\frac{3}{2}\times(-1 -\sqrt{2}), is extraneous.

Here, L.H.S= R.H.S

Option A: 0→ extraneous

4x + y = 2<br> I need to solve the literal equation for y.
Mama L [17]

Answer: y=2−4x

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving for y in this problem(4x+y=2) we need to get y by itself in the equation. To do this we need to move 4x over to the right side of the equation. To do this we subtract, 4x from both sides of the equation.

Simplify each of the following powers of i. i^15
frutty [35]

Answer: -i

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember:

1. The Product of powers property: (a^m)(a^n)=a^{(m+n)}

2. The Power of a power property: (a^m)^n=a^{mn}

In this case, given:

i^{15}

You need to follow these steps in order to simplify it:

1. Apply the Product of powers property:

i^{15}=i^{12}i^2i

2. Apply the Power of a power property:

(i^{4})^3i^2i

3. Finally, since i^4=1 and i^2=-1, you get:

 =(1)(-1)(i)=-i
