First, subtract 5 from both sides, leaving you with 5
- 30x - 5 = 0
If you use the quadratic formula (a=5), (b=-30), (c=-5)
x=-b +/- √b²-4ac / 2a
x= -(30) +/- √(30)² - 4(5) * (-5) / 2(5)
x= 30 +/- √1000 / 10
x = 3 +/- √10
Answer:
x = 71/5 (as an improper fraction)
x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction
x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a rectangle so the diagonals are equal
7x - 9 = 2x + 62
Subtract 2x from both sides
5x - 9 = 62
Add 9 to both sides
5x = 71
Divide both sides by 5
x = 71/5 (as an improper fraction)
x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction
x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
Answer:
The initial mass of the sample was 16 mg.
The mass after 5 weeks will be about 0.0372 mg.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write an exponential function to model the situation.
Let the initial amount be A. The standard exponential function is given by:
Where r is the rate of growth/decay.
Since the half-life of Palladium-100 is four days, r = 1/2. We will also substitute t/4 for t to to represent one cycle every four days. Therefore:
After 12 days, a sample of Palladium-100 has been reduced to a mass of two milligrams.
Therefore, when x = 12, P(x) = 2. By substitution:
Solve for A. Simplify:
Simplify:
Thus, the initial mass of the sample was:
5 weeks is equivalent to 35 days. Therefore, we can find P(35):
About 0.0372 mg will be left of the original 16 mg sample after 5 weeks.
Answer:
a. 19
b. 14
Step-by-step explanation:
From the venn diagram, we see that:
9 children like only Vanilla
7 like vanilla and chocolate
12 like only chocolate, and
2 like neither chocolate nor vanilla
Thus:
a. Number of children that liked Chocolate ice-cream = those that like chocolate only + those that like both chocolate and vanilla = 12 + 7 = 19
19 children like chocolate ice-cream.
b. Number of children who do not like Vanilla ice-cream = those that like chocolate only + those that do not like neither chocolate nor vanilla = 12 + 2 = 14
14 children do not like vanilla ice-cream.
Answer:
A fraction is in simplest form if the top and bottom have no common factors other than 1. In other words, you cannot divide the top and bottom any further and have them still be whole numbers.
