Answer:

The average yearly salary of the architect is $62,000 and the lawyer is $100,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The average yearly salary of a lawyer is $24 thousand less than twice that of an architect.

Combined, an architect and a lawyer earn $ 210 thousand.

Now, to find the average yearly salary of an architect and a lawyer.

Let the average yearly salary of an architect be $x.$

So, the average yearly salary of the lawyer = $2x-24,000.$

Combined, architect and lawyer earn = $\$210,000.$

Now, to get the average salary of the architect and lawyer:

$x+(2x-24000)=210000$

$x+2x-24000=210000\\\\3x-24000=210000$

Adding both sides 24000 we get:

$3x=186,000\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\ we\ get:\\\\x=62000.$

The average salary of architect = $62,000.

Now, to get the average salary of lawyer by substituting the value of $x$ :

$2x-24000\\\\=2(62000)-24000\\\\=124000-24000\\\\=\$100,000.$

The average salary of lawyer = $100,000.

Therefore, the average yearly salary of the architect is $62,000 and the lawyer is $100,000.

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

140m

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 = .75

x/.7 = 150/.75

multiply both sides by .7

x = 150/.75 * .7

x = 140m

A particular isotope has a half-life of 74 days. If you start with 1 kilogram of this isotope, how much will remain after 150

shtirl [24]

$\bf \stackrel{150~days}{\textit{Amount for Exponential Decay using Half-Life}} \\\\ A=P\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{h}}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{initial amount}\dotfill &1\\ t=\textit{elapsed time}\dotfill &150\\ h=\textit{half-life}\dotfill &74 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=1\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{150}{74}}\implies A=1\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{75}{37}}\implies \boxed{A\approx 0.24536}$

$\bf \stackrel{300~days}{\textit{Amount for Exponential Decay using Half-Life}} \\\\ A=P\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{h}}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{initial amount}\dotfill &1\\ t=\textit{elapsed time}\dotfill &300\\ h=\textit{half-life}\dotfill &74 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=1\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{300}{74}}\implies A=1\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{150}{37}}\implies \boxed{A\approx 0.060202}$

Which point on the unit circle corresponds to -pi/6 ?

xeze [42]

Answer:

(srt(3)/2, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x = rcos theta

r = 1 on unit circle

x = 1 cos (-pi/6)

x = sqrt(3)/2

y = r sin theta

y =1 sin (-pi/6)=

y = -1/2
