If the length of a rectangle is 6 more than twice the width and the total perimeter is 84cm, what is the rectangle's length?

tino4ka555 [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

length = 2×width + 6

84 = 2×length + 2×width

now using the first in the second equation :

84 = 2×(2×width + 6) + 2×width = 4×width + 12 + 2×width

84 = 6×width + 12

72 = 6×width

width = 12 cm

length = 2×width + 6 = 2×12 + 6 = 24 + 6 = 30 cm

2.The number of grams A of a certain radioactive substance present at time, in yearsfrom the present, t is given by the formulaA

professor190 [17]

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,

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

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

(06.05) Neil is analyzing a quadratic function f(x) and a linear function g(x). Will they intersect? graph of the function f of

schepotkina [342]

Given the stated equation we know that that quadratic formula has 2 as its degree. This meats it has 2 roots. A linear equation has a degree of 1. A linear equation has 1 root. To know if they intersect, the must have one root in common. To know this, solve the two equation simultaneously. If they result to an answer then they intersect.

Hi,

(1/4)^−2−(5^0)(2)(1^−1)

=16−(5^0)(2)(1^−1)

=16−(1)(2)(1^−1)

=16−2(1^−1)

=16−(2)(1)

=16−2

=14

Have a great day!
