Answer:

Given that,

The number of grams A of a certain radioactive substance present at time, in years

from the present, t is given by the formula

A=45e^{-0.0045(t)}

a) To find the initial amount of this substance

At t=0, we get

A=45e^{-0.0045(0)}A=45e^0

We know that e^0=1 ( anything to the power zero is 1)

we get,

A=45

The initial amount of the substance is 45 grams

b)To find thehalf-life of this substance

To find t when the substance becames half the amount.

A=45/2

Substitute this we get,

\frac{45}{2}=45e^{-0.0045(t)}

\frac{1}{2}=e^{-0.0045(t)}

Taking natural logarithm on both sides we get,

\ln (\frac{1}{2})=-0.0045(t)^{}(-1)\ln (\frac{1}{2})=0.0045(t)\ln (\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=0.0045(t)\ln (2)=0.0045(t)0.6931=0.0045(t)t=\frac{0.6931}{0.0045}t=154.02

Half-life of this substance is 154.02

c) To find the amount of substance will be present around in 2500 years

Put t=2500

we get,

A=45e^{-0.0045(2500)}A=45e^{-11.25}A=45\times0.000013=0.000585A=0.000585

The amount of substance will be present around in 2500 years is 0.000585 grams

dalvyx [7]

Answer: I believe the answer would be $42,890.80 is the total annual(yearly value) of Almas job.

Step-by-step explanation: First you need to figure out that $19.20 x 37= $710.40(hourly wage per week). Then, you need to figure out that $710.40 x 52 = $36,940.80(the weekly wage x the 52 weeks in the year). Next, add the yearly medical coverage. $5,500 + $36,940.80 = $42,440.80. Now, you know that 1/2 of the dental is going to be $350 and 1/2 of the life insurance is going to be $100. Add those to your previous balance. $42,440.80 + 350 + 100 = 42,890.80.

Which experimental design compares two groups (randomly formed) on the same task, such as movement speed
anygoal [31]

Between-group design compares two groups (randomly formed) on the same task, such as movement speed.

Given things that there are two groups that are randomly formed for the same task.

A between-group design in experimental design is an experiment in which two or more groups of individuals are assessed simultaneously by separate testing factors. This design is typically used instead of, or in conjunction with, the within-subject design, which applies identical modifications of circumstances to each participant in order to monitor the reactions.
