Answer:

  p(t) = 100%·2^(-t/1.32)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for exponential decay is ...

  (remaining amount) = (initial amount)·2^(-t/(half-life))

Here, we can represent the percentage remaining by p(t) and the initial amount by 100%. Then, for a half-life of 1.32 minutes, the amount remaining is ...

  p(t) = 100%·2^(-t/1.32) . . . . . where t is in minutes

_____

Alternate functional forms are possible, such as ...

  p(t) = 100%·e^(-0.525112t)

  p(t) = 100%·0.591489^t

You are going on a field trip in a school bus. A special detector placed on one of the bus's tires counts the number of rotation
professor190 [17]
Think Winnie.

The distance a wheel traveled can be determined by using the circumference.  The circumference of the wheel is pi meters. (formula is pi * diameter)

So if there were 8000 rotations, then the bus traveled 8000pi meters.

Y=3[x]+1 <br> Step by step
finlep [7]

y=3x+1

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

, where m is the slope and b

is the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

Find the values of m

and b using the form y=mx+b

.

m=3

b=1

The slope of the line is the value of m

, and the y-intercept is the value of b

.

Slope: 3

Y-Intercept: 1

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x

values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y

values.


Choose 0

to substitute in for x

to find the ordered pair.


Replace the variable x

with 0

in the expression.

f(0)=3(0)+1

Simplify the result.

(0,1)

Choose 1

to substitute in for x

to find the ordered pair.

Tap for fewer steps...

Replace the variable x

with 1

in the expression.

f(1)=3(1)+1

Simplify the result.


Multiply 3

by 1

.

f(1)=3+1

Add 3

and 1

.

f(1)=4

The final answer is 4

.

4

The second point is (1,4)

.

(1,4)

Create a table of the x

and y

values.

xy0114

Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.

Slope: 3

Y-Intercept: 1
