Ending Amount = Beginning Amount / 2^n 
where 'n' = # of half lives
n = 20,000 / 1,600 = 12.5 half-lives

Ending Amount = 1 kg / 2^12.5
Ending Amount = 1 kg / <span> <span> <span> 5,792.6

Confirm that f and g are inverses by showing that f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x.
maks197457 [2]
F(g(x)) = [(-7x-8)/(x-1) - 8} / [(-7x - 8)/(x-1) + 7] =

[(-7x - 8 - 8(x-1)) / (x-1)] / [(-7x - 8 + 7(x-1)) / (x-1)] = (-15x) / (-15) = x.

g(f(x)) = [-7*(x-8)/(x+7) - 8] / [(x-8)/(x+7) - 1] =

[(-7x + 56 -8*(x+7)) / (x+7)] / [(x - 8 - (x + 7)) / (x+7)] = (-15x) / (-15) = x.

So since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x we can conclude that f and g are inverses.

Jessica reads a story about a turtle that swam 16 feet in 24 seconds. She assumes that the time, t, that it takes the turtle to
Monica [59]
You would start by figuring out the distance the turtle swims every second by dividing 24 by 16.
24➗16=1.5
From this we can take the numbers from either T: 1, ___, 24, 45 or D: ___, 10, 16, ___ to figure out the blank spaces for the other using multiplication or division. Divide T by 1.5, or multiply D by 1.5 to find the other

T: 1, 15, 24, 45
D: 1.5, 10, 16, 30

Use one or more properties to rewrite the expression as an equivalent expression that does not use parenthesis. (5+10p)+13. A. 2
bulgar [2K]
It will be D. because you have to add the like terms which is 13 + 5 which will be 18 and so 10p doesn't have no like terms it just stays the same so it will be 10p+18
