A quantity with an initial value of 6200 decays continuously at a rate of 5.5% per month. What is the value of the quantity afte

ELEN [110]

Answer:

410.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the initial quantity, Q= 6200

Decay rate, r = 5.5% per month

So, the value of quantity after 1 month, $q_1 = Q- r \times Q$

$q_1 = Q(1-r)\cdots(i)$

The value of quantity after 2 months, $q_2 = q_1- r \times q_1$

$q_2 = q_1(1-r)$

From equation (i)

$q_2=Q(1-r)(1-r) \\\\q_2=Q(1-r)^2\cdots(ii)$

The value of quantity after 3 months, $q_3 = q_2- r \times q_2$

$q_3 = q_2(1-r)$

From equation (ii)

$q_3=Q(1-r)^2(1-r)$

$q_3=Q(1-r)^3$

Similarly, the value of quantity after n months,

$q_n= Q(1- r)^n$

As 4 years = 48 months, so puttion n=48 to get the value of quantity after 4 years, we have,

$q_{48}=Q(1-r)^{48}$

Putting Q=6200 and r=5.5%=0.055, we have

$q_{48}=6200(1-0.055)^{48} \\\\q_{48}=410.32$

Hence, the value of quantity after 4 years is 410.32.

Courtney works at the local shoe store and receives $150 a week plus 3% of all sales over $1000. This week her sales were $3200.

schepotkina [342]

The equation you would use to find her earning for the week would be:

y=0.03(x-1000)+150

This would mean she made $66 from commissions and $216 total.

Which of the following numbers has a value that is between 10% and 1/9? (a) 0.151 (b) 0.112 (c) 0.108 (d) 0.019

Westkost [7]

First you have to change each one into a decimal.

10% = 0.10
1/9 = 0.11

So the answer has to be between 0.10 and 0.11.

A is more than 0.11.
B is more than 0.11.
C is between 0.10 and 0.11.
D is less than 0.10.

The answer is C. 0.108.

There are 1500 bees in a colony. Each month, the number of bees decreases by 12%. There are 800 flowering plants in a garden. Ea

Shkiper50 [21]

Part A:Bees: f ( t ) = 1,500 * 0.88^tFlowering plants: g ( t ) = 800 - 25 tPart B :f ( 6 ) = 1,500 * 0.88^6 = 696.6 ≈ 697
g ( 6 ) = 800 - 25 * 6 = 800 - 150 = 650Part C :f ( 7 ) = 1,500 * 0.88^7 = 613g ( 7 ) = 800 - 7 * 25 = 625f ( 7 ) ≈ g ( 7 )After approximately 7 months.
