5 0

Answer:

3 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the first number

let 6x be the second number

x + 6x = 21

7x=21

x=21/7

x=3

second number =6x

second number 6x3= 21

Situation:A researcher in North America discoversa fossile that contains 65% of its originalamount of C-14..-ktN=NoeNo inital am
zheka24 [161]

SOLUTION

We have been given the equation of the decay as

\begin{gathered} N=N_0e^{-kt} \\ where\text{ } \\ N_0=initial\text{ amount of C-14 at time t} \\ N=amount\text{ of C-14 at time t = 65\% of N}_0=0.65N_0 \\ k=0.0001 \\ t=time\text{ in years = ?} \end{gathered}

So we are looking for the time

Plugging the values into the equation, we have

\begin{gathered} N=N_0e^{-kt} \\ 0.65N_0=N_0e^{-0.0001t} \\ e^{-0.0001t}=\frac{0.65N_0}{N_0} \\ e^{-0.0001t}=0.65 \end{gathered}

Taking Ln of both sides, we have

\begin{gathered} ln(e^{-0.000t})=ln(0.65) \\ -0.0001t=ln(0.65) \\ t=\frac{ln(0.65)}{-0.0001} \\ t=4307.82916 \end{gathered}

Hence the answer is 4308 to the nearest year

The data set shows the number of practice free throws players in a basketball competition made and the number of free throws the
Mila [183]

Answer-

The exponential model best fits the data set.

Solution-

x = input variable = number of practice throws

y = output variable =  number of free throws

Using Excel, Linear, Quadratic and Exponential regression model were generated.

The best fit equation and co-efficient of determination R² are as follows,

Linear Regression  

Quadratic Regression

Exponential Regression

The value of co-efficient of determination R² ranges from 0 to 1, the more closer its value to 1 the better the regression model is.

Now,

Therefore, the Exponential Regression model must be followed.

An exponential function is expressed in the form y=axb^x. The relation represents a growth when ________ and a decay when_______
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Growth when: b>1.

Decay when: 0<b<1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any function in the form f(x) =a\times b^x , where a > 0, b > 0 and b not equal to 1 is called an exponential function with base b.

if 0 < b < 1.  It is an example of an exponential decay.

The general shape of an exponential with b > 1 is an example of exponential growth.

Hence,

An exponential function is expressed in the form y=a\times b^x The relation represents a growth when  b >1 and a decay when 0<b<1.
