Given:
Initial mass, m₀ = 23 g
Decay constant, k = 0.13

Exponential decay obeys the equation
m(t)=m_{0} e^{-kt}
where t = time, days

For half life, the mass is m = m₀/2.
Therefore
e^{-0.13t} = \frac{1}{2} \\ -0.13t = ln(0.5)\\t= \frac{ln(0.5)}{-0.13} =5.33

Answer: The half life is 5.33 days

A box contains 14 nickels, 15 dimes and 6 pennies. if a coin is picked at random from the box, what is the average value of the
Sidana [21]

Answer:

$0.0646 is the expected value of the draw.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

1 penny = 1 cent

Total number of coins = 14+15+6=35

Probability that a nickel is selected is = 14/35

Probability that a dime is selected is = 15/35

Probability that a penny is selected is = 6/35

So, the expected value of the draw will be =

\frac{14}{35}*5+\frac{15}{35}*10+\frac{6}{35}*1

\frac{70}{35}+\frac{150}{35}+\frac{6}{35}=\frac{226}{35}

= 6.457 cents ≈6.46 cents

So, in dollars it is = \frac{6.46}{100} = $0.0646

So, $0.0646 is the expected value of the draw.

The area (A of a circle with a radius of ris given by the formula A = 772 and its diameter (d) is given by d = 27. Arrange the e
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

A = πr² ← r is the radius and r = \frac{1}{2} d ← d is the diameter

Hence

π (\frac{1}{2} d)² = A, that is

\frac{d^2\pi }{4} = A ( multiply both sides by 4 )

d²π = 4A ( divide both sides by π )

d² = \frac{4A}{\pi } ( take the square root of both sides )

d = \sqrt{\frac{4A}{\pi } }
