Answer:

f(t) \ = \ 70 \ * \ e ^ { \ - 0.0043 \frac{1}{week} \ * \ t}

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponentials functions are of the form:

f(t) \ = \ A \ * \ e ^ { \ b \ * \ t}

where A and b are constants.

Now, the initial value of the exponential function its

f(0) \ = \ A \ * \ e ^ { \ b \ * \ 0}

f(0) \ = \ A \ * \ e ^ { \ 0 \ }

f(0) \ = \ A \

If the initial value must be 70, this must means:

A \ = \ 70

So

f(t) \ = \ 70 \ * \ e ^ { \ b \ * \ t}

We also know that it must decrease at a rate of 0.43 %, this mean that after one week we got:

100 \ \% - 0.43 \ \%  = 99.57 \ \%

f(1 week) \ = \ 70 \ * 0.9957 \ =  \ 70 \ * \ e ^ { \ b \ * \ 1 \ week}

This means :

0.9957 \ = \ e ^ { \ b \ * \ 1 \ week}

ln ( 0.9957) \ = \ b \ * \ 1 \ week

\ b \ = \frac{ln ( 0.9957)}{ 1 \ week}

\ b \ = - 0.0043 \frac{1}{week}

So, our equation, finally, its:

f(t) \ = \ 70 \ * \ e ^ { \ - 0.0043 \frac{1}{week} \ * \ t}

That'd be y = 70* (1-.00043)^t, where the rate of decrease is really 0.43% and t denotes the # of weeks.  

This simplifies to y = 70*(0.00057)^t.

Solve for e. (-7) = e/3 + 14
raketka [301]
<span>(-7) = e/3 + 14

Subtract 14 on both sides

-7 - 14 = e/3 + 14 - 14

-21 = e/3 

Multiply by 3 on both sides

-21 * 3 = e/3 * 3

-63 = e</span>

What is the quotient (3x4 + 4x – 15) + (x + 3)?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

3x-5 and r=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do it by long division method  the required quotient is 3x-5 and r=0

not 3x-1 , r=1

multiply the divisor with 3x  we will get to cancel out the first term of dividend

Now after solving we will get  

Now, multiply the divisor by -5 we will get -5x-15 which will cancel the entire dividend.

Write the equation in standard form<br><br> y = -10x + 6
Mumz [18]
Step (1) Flip the equation

−10x+6=y


Step (2) Add -6 to both sides

−10x+6+−6=y+−6

−10x=y−6

Step (3) Divide both sides by -10

−10x−10=y−6−10

ANSWER
x =  \frac{ - 1}{10} y +  \frac{3}{5}

What are some examples of how you have used, or could use, algebraic equations to solve problems in your everyday life?
pshichka [43]
We use algebraic equations in our daily lives without knowing it. For example, when we go shopping, calculate grocery expenses, or even fill our gas tanks, we are using equations. Let's say we needed to fill our gas tank, but we only had $15.00 to do so. If the price of gas is $3.00 per gallon, how many gallons could we buy? We use the simply algebraic equation of \frac{x}{y} to calculate the total gallons that can be bought. x = the money we have. y = price per gallon of gas. \frac{15}{3} = 5. So with $15.00, we can buy 5 gallons of gas; and that is just one example of using an algebraic equation in everyday life!
