An element with mass 800 grams decays by 8.2% per day. How much of the element is remaining after 15 days,
Serjik [45]

Given:

The initial mass of an element is 800 grams.

Decay rate = 8.2% per day

Number of days = 15

To find:

The remaining element after 15 days.

Solution:

The exponential decay model is

y=a(1-r)^t

Where, a is the initial value r is the rate of interest and t is time period.

Putting a=800,r=0.082,t=15 in the above formula, we get

y=800(1-0.082)^{15}

y=800(0.918)^{15}

y=221.68188

y\approx 221.7

Therefore, the mass of the remaining element is 221.7 grams.

HELP ASAP WILL MARK AS BRAINLIST IF YOU SOLVE 2 OF THESE QUESTIONS
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

1. 175

2. 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're converting from another base, just multiply each digit, then add up the numbers:

ones digit × 8^0,

tens digit × 8^1

hundreds × 8^2

see image.

The second problem gives you a new operation. Follow the rule by squaring the first number and taking away the first×second. Do the parenthesis first!

Use the given values in the compound interest formula to solve for time, n.

A is the final amount of money, $2800
P is the initial or starting amount $1900
i is the interest rate as a decimal 0.025
n is time in years since it annual.

2800 = 1900(1 + 0.025)^n

2800 = 1900(1.025)^n

2800/1900 = (1.025)^n

28/19 = (1.025)^n

take the natural log of both sides to solve for exponent.

ln(28/19) = ln(1.025^n)

power rule of logarithmic moves exponent

ln(28/19) = n*ln(1.025)

ln(28/19) / ln(1.025) = n

put into a calculator

15.7 years = n

Answer:

P(X=7)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=7)=(15C7)(0.23)^7 (1-0.23)^{15-7}=0.0271  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.23)  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

And we want to find the following probability:

P(X=7)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=7)=(15C7)(0.23)^7 (1-0.23)^{15-7}=0.0271
