<span>The decay of 277 mg of an isotope is described by the function
A(t)= 277e-0.019t,
where t is time in years.
To find the amount left after 64 years,

We substitute t = 64 in the expression.
</span>A(t=64)= 277e-0.019(64)
or A(t=64) = 277 * e-1.216
                 = 277 * 0.29
                 = 82 mg

An actor invests some money at 7%, and $48000 and more than twotimes the amount of 9%. The total annual interest earned from the
forsale [732]

Answer:

At 7% $54,000

At 9% $156,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount invested at 7%, Then 2x + 48000 will be the amount invested at 9%

We know that:

7% = 0.07 & 9% = 0.09

So we can write the interest equation as follows:

0.07x + 0.09 (2x + 48000) = 17820

0.07x + 0.18x + 4320 = 17820

0.25x + 4320 = 17820

Subtracting 4320 from both sides of the equation we get:

0.25x = 17820 - 4320

0.25x = 13500

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25 we get:

x = 13500 / 0.25

x = $54,000 invested at 7%

&

2 x 54000 + 48000

= $156,000 invested at 9%

Hence the amount invested at 7% is $54,000.

& the amount invested at 9% is $156,000.

Directions - For the following problem, write a paragraph proof to justify each step you make. All work must be neat,
nlexa [21]

$ PS = \frac{4}{3} x

Solution:

Given PRQ is a triangle.

ST is a line parallel to RQ.

$PT = x, \ PQ = 3x,  \ SR=\frac{8}{3}x

TQ=PQ-PT

TQ=3x -x=2x

<u>Triangle proportionality theorem,</u>

<em>If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two sides proportionally.</em>

$\frac{PS}{SR} =\frac{PT}{TQ}

$\frac{PS}{\frac{8}{3} x} =\frac{x}{2x}

Do cross multiplication, we get

$ PS \times 2x=x \times \frac{8}{3} x

Divide by 2x on both sides, we get

$ PS = \frac{4}{3} x

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

3 letters can be arranged in 26*25*24 = 15600 ways

3 digits can be arranged in 10 * 9 * 8 = 720 ways

So the total number is 15600 * 720 = 11,232,000

So I agree with the number that you obtained
