A lake was closed because of an accidental pesticide spill. The concentration of the pesticide after the spill was 848 parts per

million. Each day the water is tested, and the amount of pesticide is found to be about 75% of what was there the day before. Do you think the lake will ever be completely free of the pesticide? Explain.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}\\0=848(0.75)^{n-1}\\or~(0.75)^{n-1}=0\\0.75

or~n \rightarrow 1+\infty\\or~n \rightarrow \infty

Hence lake will never be free of pesticide.

Find the area and perimeter.<br> The area is ... and the perimeter is ...
Schach [20]

Answer:

Area: 6a^2

Perimeter: 12a^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle, use the formula A=1/2 b*h. The base is 3a^2 and the height is 4a^2.

A= 1/2 (3a^2)(4a^2)

A = 1/2 (12a^4)

A = 6a^4

To find the perimeter of the triangle, add each of the sides of the triangle. The third side, the hypotenuse, can be found using Pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2\\(3a^2)^2+(4a^2)^2 = c^2\\(9a^4)+(16a^4)=c^2\\25a^4=c^2\\5a^2=c

Now add each of the sides: 3a^2 + 4a^2 +5a^2 = 12a^2

This is a same side interior angle, which means that the two angles, when added, will equal 180°

y + 72 = 180

Isolate the y, subtract 72 from both sides

y + 72 (-72) = 180 (-72)

y = 180 - 72

y = 108

A) 108°, is your answer


hope this helps

If x varies as y and if x=20 when y=9 , find x when y=18​
andrezito [222]

Answer:1/2 y

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this using ration reasoning:  

x

2

x

1

=

y

2

y

1

Explanation:

If  

x

varies directly with  

y

(written  

x

∝

y

), then doubling  

y

means doubling  

x

, so the rations of final values and initial values will be the same:

x

2

x

1

=

y

2

y

1

In this case,

x

2

9

=

24

18

x

2

=

9

⋅

24

18

=

12

Or, intuitively, if  

x

∝

y

and  

x

=

9

when  

y

=

18

, we can conclude that

x

=

1

2

y

and  

1

2

of 24 is 12.
