Answer:

There will be 22.5 grams left after 32 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A half-life is how long it takes for half of the amount to go away. In this case, we see that we have two half-life periods worth, which you can determine by dividing the total time by the half-life time.

32hrs/8hrs = 4 half lives.

Now we can raise 1/2 to the power of how many half lives we have (2). Then we multiply that by the amount in the sample.

(1/2)^4 * 360

1/16 * 360

22.5 grams

And this is an exponential function.

Use the graph to estimate the height of a jugglers ball that has been in the air for 1.5 seconds
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The height of a jugglers ball that has been in the air for 1.5 seconds is 6.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given height equation as

h=-16t^2+25t+5

where

h is the height in feet of a Juggler's ball after t seconds

now, we can plug t=1.5

h=-16(1.5)^2+25(1.5)+5

we can solve for h

h=42.5-16\cdot \:1.5^2

h=42.5-36

h=6.5

So,

The height of a jugglers ball that has been in the air for 1.5 seconds is 6.5 feet
