Answer:
a. 281.25 grams
b. The 500 represent the original amount of aspirin.
c. 3/4 tells us what amount of the aspirin remains after every hour.
d's answer is in the picture. Just copy the line.
Step-by-step explanation:
A is the only part that needs any explanation.
Since the t represent hours, I'll subsititute t for 2.
500 * (3/4)²
<em>3/4 squared is 9/16.</em>
500 * 9/16
<em>Multiply 500 by 9 to get 4500.</em>
4500/16
<em>Simplify 4500/16 to 1125/4 (4 is canceled out.)</em>
1125/4
<em>Divide 1125 by 4 to get 281.25</em>
281.25
281.25 grams of aspirin will be in the patient body after two hours.
Let's assume the temperature was 10.
it increased 25% so this is the equation for it:
10 +25%=12.5 degree.
then it decreased 40%
so it will be as follow:
12.5 degree - 40%= 7.5 degrees.
X would be 4 and y would be 6 ?
Answer:
The two numbers are 64 and 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
You meant "quotient" of two numbers, right?
Represent the numbers by x and y.
Then the quotient is x/y = 8, and beyond that we know that x + y = 72.
Solve this for x and y.
If x/y = 8, then x = 8y. Substituting this into x + y = 72, we get:
(8y) + y = 72, or 9y = 72. Dividing both sides by 9 yields y = 8.
Since x/y = 8, letting y = 8 results in x = 64.
The two numbers are 64 and 8.
