You're studying how well students remember vocabulary after they stop studying a new language. The first student you study remem

bers 95% of the
French words she learned 3 months later, but only 70% of the words 12 months
later.
Before studying more students, you wonder: Is a decreasing linear model or an
exponential decay model likely to be a better fit for data about remembering?
Decide which model you think will be better. Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

Exponential decay model

Step-by-step explanation:

A quick graph shows the remembrance pattern is not linear because the slope is not the same. Therefore a very likely remembrance pattern will be exponentially related.

The equation y = 8.1x models the relationship between the number of hours Alexander works, x, and the dollar amount he earns, y.
Katarina [22]
Start the graph at the <em>y</em>-intercept.  At 0 hours, he will make $0, so (0, 0) is the <em>y</em>-intercept.  From this point, he makes $8.10 an hour; go up 8.1 for every 1 hour you go over on the graph.  The graph is attached.

A glass contains alcohol and water in the ratio 1:4. A second glass contains the same quantity of liquid, but this time the rati
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

3:7

Step-by-step explanation:

So to solve this problem, you have to understand what the ratio 1:4 and 2:3 means. The 1:4 ratio in the first equation means that for "each unit of alcohol" there is 4 of those units of water. So let's say I had 2 gallons of alcohol and mixed it with 8 gallons of water. This means for each gallon of alcohol, there is 4 gallons of water, or in other words a 1:4 ratio. This can be described as a percentage as well. For each 5 gallons there are 4 gallons of water, and 1 gallon of alcohol or <em>20%</em> is alcohol. So let's just say that x=alcohol and y=water, this means that: x+y=c  where c is the total amount in the glass. This means that: x=0.20c

Let's do the same thing to the second equation. the ratio means that for every 2 units of alcohol there are 3 units of water. This means for every 5 gallons of the mixture there is 2 units of alcohol which is 40%. In this case let's also say that j=alcohol and k=water. This means that: j+k=c and that: j=0.40c.

So if we're going to add the two glasses, we simply add the two sides, and get: j+x+k+y=2c. Now remember how can can express j and x in terms of c, since it's a certain percentage of c (the entire thing). This means that we get: (0.4c+0.2c)+x+k=2c Now we can add like terms to get the equation: 0.6c+y+k=2c. We can find how much 0.6c is to 2c by dividing the 2, in doing so we get that 0.6c/2c = 0.3, or in other words the 0.6c is only 30% of the final mixture, and since the 0.6c represents the alcohol in this mixture, that means that's the percentage of alcohol. To write this as a ratio, this means for every 3 units of alcohol, there is 7 units of water, because 3/10 = 30%.

padilas [110]

Answer:

G) 16.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pythagoriam theroem to solve the problem

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

a^{2} + 7^{2} = 18^{2}

a^{2} + 49 = 324

a^{2} = 275

a = 16.6
