I  recently got a bad grade on a test. How can I make sure I don't make silly mistakes when I hardly have time to double check?

Make sure you study, and if necessary, do some practice problems. Then, check to make sure you are right, and if not, find out why, and correct your mistakes.

The half life of a radioactive substance is the time it takes for a quantity of the substance to decay to half of the initial am
Veronika [31]

Using an exponential function, it is found that:

a) N(t) = 75(0.5)^{\frac{t}{3.8}}

b) 37.5 grams of the gas remains after 3.8 days.

c) The amount remaining will be of 10 grams after approximately 11 days.

<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.

Item a:

We start with 75 grams, and then work with a half-life of 3.8 days, hence the amount after t daus is given by:

N(t) = 75(0.5)^{\frac{t}{3.8}}

Item b:

This is N when t = 3.8, hence:

N(t) = 75(0.5)^{\frac{3.8}{3.8}} = 37.5

37.5 grams of the gas remains after 3.8 days.

Item c:

This is t for which N(t) = 10, hence:

N(t) = 75(0.5)^{\frac{t}{3.8}}

10 = 75(0.5)^{\frac{t}{3.8}}

(0.5)^{\frac{t}{3.8}} = \frac{10}{75}

\log{(0.5)^{\frac{t}{3.8}}} = \log{\frac{10}{75}}

\frac{t}{3.8}\log{0.5} = \log{\frac{10}{75}}

t = 3.8\frac{\log{\frac{10}{75}}}{\log{0.5}}

t \approx 11

The amount remaining will be of 10 grams after approximately 11 days.

The formula for the area of a triangle is A = one-half b h. Which is the equivalent equation solved for h? StartFraction 2 A Ove
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

StartFraction 2 A Over b EndFraction = h

Step-by-step explanation:

A =  \frac{1}{2}  \times b \times h \\  \\ 2A =  b \times h \\  \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{h =  \frac{2A}{b}}}  \\

Seventy concert tickets were sold for $550. Each adult ticket cost $9 and each children's ticket cost $5. Find the number of adu
mestny [16]
Total tickets = 70
Total cost = $550

Adult's ticket = $9
Child's ticket = $5
Difference = 9 - 5 = $4

Assume all 70 are child's tickets
5 x 70 = 350

But the total cost was 550
550 - 350 = $200
The $200 must have come from Adult's tickets, which has a difference of $4.

200 ÷ 4 = 50
So there are 50 adult's tickets.

70 - 50 = 20
And there are 20 child's tickets.

Subtract 5y-8 from 2y+8
Eva8 [605]

Subtract 5y - 8 from 2y + 8

To subtract two numbers, we can do it like this:

10 - 4 = 10 + (-4)

That is, add the first number with the second number with its sign changed. For simple numbers, it does not make much difference, but for algebraic expressions, it can help a lot.

To subtract both binomials, we write the first plus the second with changed signs:

2y + 8

-5y + 8

---------------

-3y + 16

The result of the subtraction is -3y+16
