Exponential decay is given by the equation

F = P(1 - r)^t

0.5 = 1(1 - 0.092)^t

0.5 = (0.908)^t

log 0.5 = log (0.908)^t

log 0.5 = t * log 0.908

t = (log 0.5)/(log 0.908)

t = 7.18

Answer: 7.2 years

The side AB measures option 2. \sqrt{20}} units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The coordinates of the given triangle ABC are A (4, 5), B (2, 1), and C (4, 1).

The sides of the triangle are AB, BC, and CA. We need to determine the length of AB.

To calculate the distance between two points, we use the formula d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}.

where (x_{1},y_{1}) are the coordinates of the first point and (x_{2},y_{2}) are the coordinates of the second point.

Step 2:

For A (4, 5) and B (2, 1), (x_{1},y_{1}) = (4, 5) and (x_{2},y_{2}) = (2, 1). Substituting these values in the distance formula, we get

d=\sqrt{\left(2-4\right)^{2}+\left(1-5}\right)^{2}} = \sqrt{\left(2\right)^{2}+\left(4}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{20}}.

So the side AB measures \sqrt{20}} units long which is the second option.

PLEASE HELP On a clock, what is the angle formed by the hour hand and minute hand at 1:30? Assume the hour and minute hand each
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

D. 135°

Step-by-step explanation:

Time is 1:30

The minute hand traveled half of full circle

The minute hand position is:

  • 360°×1/2= 180°

The hour hand traveled 1.5 hr ÷ 12 hr= 1/8 of full circle

The hour hand position is:

  • 360°×1/8= 45°

the difference between the hands:

  • 180°-45°= 135°

Choice D. 135° is the correct one
