Juan analyzes the amount of radioactive material remaining in a medical waste container over time. He writes the function f(x) =

10(0.98)x to represent the amount of radioactive material that will remain after x hours in the container. Rounded to the nearest tenth, how much radioactive material will remain after 10 hours?

Answer: 8.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Juan analyzes the amount of radioactive material remaining in a medical waste container over time. He writes the function $f(x) = 10(0.98)^x$ to represent the amount of radioactive material that will remain after x hours in the container.

Then , the amount of radioactive material will remain after 10 hours is given by :-

$f(10)=10(0.98)^{10}$$8.17072806888=8.17072806888\approx8.2$

Hence, the amount of radioactive material will remain after 10 hours =8.2 (units)

Answer:

I think AC is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

This looks like an equilateral triangle so that means because there is a 3 on one side of the line it should be the same on the other side of the line so 3 x 2 = 6.

The simplest fraction form of 0.0115 is

qaws [65]

0.0115 = 115 / 10000

= 115/10000 5 into 115 is 23, 5 into 10000 is 2000

= 23 / 2000 in its simplest form.

A carpenter wants to build a rectangular box with square sides in which to put round things. the material for the bottom costs $

alexira [117]

Answer: $1.627\times 1.627\times 1.88\ ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Suppose side face have a dimension of l\times l

and width of h

volume $V=l^2\cdot h$

$h=\frac{V}{l^2}$

volume $V=5 ft^3$

Area of side wall is $A_s=l^2$

Area of top Wall $A_t=l\times h$

Area of bottom $A_b=l\times h$

Cost of bottom wall $c_b=20\times l\times h=20lh$

Cost of top wall $c_t=50\times l\times h=50lh$

Cost of side walls $c_s=4\times l^2\times 10=40l^2$

total cost $C=c_s+c_t+c_b=20lh+50lh+40l^2$

$C=70lh+40l^2$

$C=70\times l\times \frac{5}{l^2}+40l^2$

differentiate C w.r.t l to get minima or maxima

$\frac{\mathrm{d} C}{\mathrm{d} l}=0$

$-\frac{350}{l}+80l^2=0$

$l^3=\frac{350}{80}$

$l=1.627 ft$

$h=\frac{5}{2.648}$

$h=1.88 ft$

Dimension of Box is $1.627\times 1.627\times 1.88\ ft^3$

Solve the equation. -7 = -1 + x/3

pochemuha

Answer:

x= -18

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to isolate x ( move everything to the other side of the equation)

-7 = -1 + x/3

-6 = x/3

x= 3*-6

x= -18
