I believe you are referring to the half-life formula, which is used to calculate the half-life (when the substance drops to half of its original amount) of radioactive substances.  The equation is as follows: A = P(.5)^{t/h}

<em>A</em> is the remaining amount
<em>P</em> is the initial amount
<em>t</em> is the time that has passed
<em>h</em> is the half-life of the substance

When plugging values into the equation, make sure that <em>t </em>and <em>h </em>are both measured in the same unit (e.g. <em>t </em>days and <em>h </em>days), as well as <em>A </em>and <em>P</em>.

Find the sixth term of the geometric sequence<br> 9, 18, 36, ...
timama [110]

Answer:

This is a geometric sequence because any term divided by the previous term is a constant called the common ratio. r=36/18=18/9=2 A geometric sequence is expressed as

\begin{gathered}a_n=ar^{n-1},\text{ where a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number}\\ \\ a_n=9(2^{n-1})\\ \\ a_6=9(2^5)\\ \\ a_6=288\end{gathered}an=arn−1, where a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term numberan=9(2n−1)a6=9(25)a6=288

At the zoo, there were 260 people at the panda exhibit. 30% of the people at the panda exhibit were visitors from China. How man
kondaur [170]

First we convert percentage to a decimal:

30\%= \cfrac{30}{100}= \cfrac{3}{10}

Then we multiply the decimal and a number:

\cfrac{3}{10}\cdot260=\cfrac{3\cdot\not\!\!\!260^\ {26}}{\not\!\!10}=3\cdot26= \boxed{78}

Answer:

There were 78 visitors from China.
