(1-0.2)(1-0.4)(1-0.62) = (0.8)(0.6)(0.38) = 0.1824

Answer: The decay factor that corresponds to a product is 18.24%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rate  of decrement firstly = 20%

Rate of decrement secondly = 40%

Rate of decrement finally = 62%

As we know that

Decay factor is given by

(1-\dfrac{r_1}{100})(1-\dfrac{r_2}{100})(1-\dfrac{r_3}{100})\\\\=(1-0.20)(1-0.40)(1-0.62)\\\\=0.80\times 0.60\times 0.38\\\\=0.1824\\\\=18.24\%

Hence, the decay factor that corresponds to a product is 18.24%.

The total age of two sisters is 108 years
tester [92]

Answer:

7 : 5

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of the younger be x , then the older is x + 18, thus

x + x + 18 = 108, that is

2x + 18 = 108 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

2x = 90 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 45

Thus younger is 45 and older is 45 + 18 = 63

ratio older : younger = 63 : 45 = 7 : 5
