Answer:

The answer is  98.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

y=ab^x

a=starting value = 970

r=rate = 15.1%=0.151

Exponential Decay:

b=1-r=1-0.151=0.849

Write Exponential Function:

y=970(0.849)^x

Plug in time for x:

y=970(0.849)^{14}

y= 98.05718

Evaluate

y≈98.1

The amount of the element remaining (y) in grams after time (t) in minutes is defined by the equation y=970(1-.151)^t. Substitute t=14 into the equation and solve for y. y=970(.849)^14=98.06 rounded to two decimal places.

(x 4 - 3x 3 + 3x 2 - 3x + 6) (x - 2)
Vlada [557]

Answer:

x^5 - 5 x^4 + 9 x^3 - 9 x^2 + 12 x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

(x ^4 - 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x + 6) (x - 2)

Distribute the x to all the terms in the first parentheses

(x^ 4  *x - 3x^ 3  *x + 3x^ 2   *x - 3x   *x + 6*x)

Then simplify

(x^5 - 3x^4 + 3x^ 3 - 3x2 + 6x)

Distribute the -2 to all the terms in the first parentheses

(x^ 4  *(-2) - 3x^ 3  *(-2) + 3x^ 2   *(-2) - 3x   *(-2) + 6*(-2))

Then simplify

(-2x^4 +6x^3 -6x^ 2 +6x -12)

Add the terms together

(x^5 - 3x^4 + 3x^ 3 - 3x2 + 6x) +(-2x^4 +6x^3 -6x^ 2 +6x -12)

x^5 - 5 x^4 + 9 x^3 - 9 x^2 + 12 x - 12

15x - 10 = -9x + 2 <br> please help me !!!!!
DerKrebs [107]
15x - 10 = -9x + 2

15x +9x -10 = -9x + 9x + 2

15 x + 9x - 10 + 10 = 2 + 10

15 x + 9 x = 2 + 10

24x = 12

24x/24 = 12/24

x = 1/2

hope this helps

What is the equation in point slope form for the line that is parallel to y=-8x-12 that contains the point (-3,3)
belka [17]

Answer:

The equation of a parallel line in point-slope form would be y - 3 = -8(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we must first note that the original slope is -8. Parallel lines have the same slope, so we know that the new line will also have the slope of -8.

Given this information, we can use the point and slope and put them into the base form of point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 3 = -8(x - -3)

y - 3 = -8(x + 3)
