(126) times (1/2 to the x/11 power) = 15% times 126
(1/2) to the x/11 power = 0.15
Take the log of both sides :
(x/11) times log(1/2) = log(0.15)
Multiply both sides by 11 :
'x' times log(1/2) = 11 x log(0.15)
Divide both sides by " log(1/2) " :
x = 11 x log(0.15)/log(1/2) = <em><u>30.107 years</u></em> (rounded)
That's the time it takes for <em><u>any-size</u></em> sample of this substance
to decay to 15% of its original size.
Answer:
Slope is 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-2y=10
subtract 5x from both sides
-2y=-5x+10
Then you divide -2 on both sides
y=5/2x-5
Which will result 5/2 as the slope
Answer:
(0, 33) : Yes
(4.8, 30.5) : Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
height of at least 24 ft : y >= 24
horizontal distance of no more than 10 ft. : 0 <= x <= 10
The vertical height must be at least three times as high as the horizontal distance. No rocket should go higher than 33 ft.:
y >= 3x and y <= 33
So Constraints:
24 <= y <= 33
y >= 3x
0 <= x <= 10
Now check to see if those coordinate points meet all the constraints
(0, 33) : Yes
(4.8, 30.5) : Yes
(9, 26) : No (because 26 is less than (3 * 9) = 27)
(4, 36)
: No (because 36 > 33, must be 24 <= y <= 33)
(2, 22): No (because 22 <24, must be 24 <= y <= 33)
No. If you divide 69 by 100 you would get 0.69. If you divided 6 by 10 you would get 0.6. Therefore 69/100 and 6/10 is not equivalent.
Answer: 8.3 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
simple, there's a flat fee for 1 ounce, then 23 cents for each ounce following.
so $2 - $0.32 = $1.68
1.67 / 0.23 = 7.3 ounces
7.3 ounces + 1 ounces (from the flat fee we subtracted)
which equals 8.3
