To simplify the problem imagine the half-life was 2.5 minutes. This means that there would be 10/2.5=4 periods of halving the mass, which means 1/2⁴=1/16 of 18g=1.125g.
So for the given half-life we calculate 10/2.552=3.9185 approx. So we now find 2 to this power=15.1211 approx and divide into 18=1.19g. This is close to the rough estimate we did earlier.
Answer: I'm not sure about the first question, I've never been good at equations. The second one is asking for 15x30 = 450. She will make 450 dollars for 15 hours of work.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: No C
Step-by-step explanation:
The x values of the coordinates cannot repeat.
Using a straight line test, a straight line can be drawn vertically on the x axis point of 4.
Answer: The correct option is C
Step-by-step explanation:
You begin a job with an annual salary of $32,900
Each year you are assured of a 5.5%. If you get the same amount each year, that is a 100% payment. It is neither reducing nor increasing. But with an increase of 5.5% each year, it means you are getting (100+5.5)% each year. This equals 105.5%. So for each year, you get 105.5% of the previous year.
This is a geometric progression. To determine the total amount that you can earn in 15 years, we will find the sum of 15 terms, S15 of the series. The formula for sum of the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Sn = [a(r^n - 1)] / r - 1
Where
Sn = sum of the nth terms of the series
a = the first term(salary of the first year
r = common ratio
n = number of years.
From the question,
a = 32900
n = 15
r = 105.5/100 = 1.055
S15 = [32900(1.055^15 - 1)] / 1.055 - 1
S15 = [32900(2.23247649224 - 1)] / 0.055
S15 = [32900 × 1.23247649224] / 0.055
S15 = $737245
