Amount of sales  of newspapers for the month of January = $8341.50
Percentage of profit for which the newspaper is sold = 0.5%
Then
Amount of profit made in the month of January = 0.5% * 8341.50 dollars
                                                                           = (0.5/100) * 8341.50 dollars
                                                                           = 4170.75/100 dollars
                                                                           = 41.707 dollars
                                                                           = 41.71 dollars
So the shop makes a profit of $41.71 in the month of January by selling newspapers worth $8341.50. I hope the procedure is perfectly clear for you to understand.

A rocket lifted off from a launch pad and traveled vertically 30 km, then traveled 40 km at 30 degrees from the vertical, and th
nika2105 [10]
Well, we are told that in the beginning, it has traveled 30km vertically, so do not forget to add that on at the end.

Next it says that it traveled 40km 30 degrees from vertical, so we set up a sin equation to solve for the missing side, n:

sin(angle)= opposite/hypotenuse:

sin(30) = n/40

40sin30=n

n=20km

Then it says at an angle of 45 degrees, it goes 100km. This means that we are given the hypotenuse of a right triangle, and we need to find the side that goes up and down. We shall call this length x.

We know that the angle opposite x is 45 degrees.

So, we will use sin to solve for x:

sin(angle)= opposite/hypotenuse

sin45= x/100

100sin45=x

x=70.711km

But remember, I said not to forget about that 30km from the very beginning? So we add up all of our vertical heights:

30km + 20km+ 70.711km = 120.711km

Using an exponential function, it is found that the Tequesta settlement is 1845 years old.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

The exponential equation for a decaying amount of a substance is given by:

A(t) = A(0)e^{-rt}

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Researching on the internet, the half-life of carbon 14 is of 5,730 years, hence A(5730) = 0.5A(0), which we use to find r.

A(t) = A(0)e^{-rt}

0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-5730r}

e^{-5730r} = 0.5

\ln{e^{-5730r}} = \ln{0.5}

5730r = -\ln{0.5}

r = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{5730}

r = 0.00012096809

Hence, the equation is:

A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012096809t}

The wood chips were found to contain 80% of the atmospheric carbon-14, hence we have to find t for which A(t) = 0.8A(0).

A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012096809t}

0.8A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.00012096809t}

e^{-0.00012096809t} = 0.8

\ln{e^{-0.00012096809t}} = \ln{0.8}

-0.00012096809t = \ln{0.8}

t = -\frac{\ln{0.8}}{0.00012096809}

t = 1845

The Tequesta settlement is 1845 years old.
