Levart [38]

Answer:

P(t) = 3000 * 4^(t/10)

Step-by-step explanation:

There is more than one way to get an exponential function out of the information given.  The way the question is worded, however, seems to suggest the following type of answer:

One general form of the exponential function is y = a·bx, where a is the initial value, and b is the growth or decay factor.  So right away we can say that a = 2300.

Now for the growth factor.  When something is increasing or decreasing by a certain percentage, we are adding or subtracting that percentage to the 100% (which is equal to 1) that exists currently.  So here we're increasing by 11%, or 0.11.  Then the growth factor b is (1 + 0.11), or 1.11.

A doctor prescribes 150 milligrams of a therapeutic drug that decays by about 15% each hour. To the nearest hour, what is the ha
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount remaining at the end of each hour is 0.85 of the amount at the start of the hour. You want to find the exponent such that ...

... 0.85^x = 0.5 . . . . . x = the number of hours until half is left

... x·log(0.85) = log(0.5) . . . . . take the log to turn it to a linear equation

... x = log(0.5)/log(0.85) ≈ 4.265024

Rounded to the nearest  hour, x = 4.

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

x=-3,x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-6x-20-7=0

x^2-6x-27=0

x^2-(9-3)x-27=0

x^2-9x+3x-27=0

x(x-9)+3(x-9)=0

(x+3)(x-9)=0

x=-3,x=9
