3.36/10.5 = 0.32
It costs $0.32 an ounce
For a half- life, the formula is
A(t) = A0(0.5)^( t / t_0.5)
where A(t) is the amount of substance at time t
A0 is the initial amount of subtance
t_0.5 is the time it will reduce its amount to half
t is the time
substitute the given to the formula
A(t) = 100(0.5)^( t/6 )
so the decay factor is 0.5^( t/6 )
y intercept : (0,6)
Explanation:
Use the formula:
. y = mx + b
Find m (the slope), using 2 random points of the graph: (-2,0) and (1,9)
. m = (y-y1) / (x-x1)
m = (0-9) / (-2-1)
m = -9 / -3
m = 3
Replace m in the equation:
. y = 3x + b
Find b by replacing y and x by a random point of the graph: (1,9)
. 9 = 3*1 + b
b = 9 - 3
b = 6
Replace b in the equation:
. y = 3x +6
To find the y-intercept replace x by 0 in the equation:
. y = 3*0 +6
y = 0+6
y = 6
=> y-intercept : (0,6)
Multiply the amount she deposits every month by the number of months (m) and add it to her starting amount:
The equation will look like this:
y = 30m + 16
Answer:
the answer is (x,y)=(-2,-3)
