Given:
18 points on her quiz
24 points is equivalent to 100%
18 is to 24 or 18/24
x is to 100% or x/100%
18/24 = x/100%
18 * 100% = 24x
1800% = 24x
1800%/24 = x
75% = x
18/24 = 75%/100%
18 * 100% = 24 * 75%
1800% = 1800%
Answer:
Value of x =20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: EF = 9x+14 units , FG = 56 units and EG = 250 units.
Segment Addition Postulates states the following for 3 points that are collinear.
i.e, Let three points A, B and C are collinear and B is between A and C.
i,e AC = AB + BC
By Segment addition postulates; solve for x;
EG = EF + FG
Substitute the given values we get;
250 = 9x + 14 + 56
or
250 = 9x + 70
Subtract 70 on both sides we get;
250 -70 = 9x + 70 -70
Simplify:
180 = 9x
Divide both sides by 9 we get;
Simplify:
x = 20
Therefore, the value of x =20
(90*.06)(this is the percentage converted to a decimal) this should equal the amount of tax that Ben will pay.
So the answer would be
90*6%
Answer: Exponential decay model:
y
=
x
(
1
−
r
)
t
, half life of tablet is about
2
hours and after
t
=
3
hours , remaining drug on patient's system is
42.875
mg.
Step-by-step explanation: Initial drug
x
=
125
mg ; rate of decay
r
=
30
100
=
0.3
gm/hour
Exponential model:
y
=
x
(
1
−
r
)
t
=
125
(
1
−
0.3
)
t
=
125
⋅
0.7
t
Half life:
y
=
125
2
=
62.5
mg
∴
62.5
=
125
⋅
0.7
t
or
0.7
t
=
1
2
. Taking logarithm on both sides we get ,
t
log
(
0.7
)
=
log
(
0.5
)
∴
t
=
log
(
0.5
)
log
(
0.7
)
≈
1.94
(
2
d
p
)
hour
The half life of tablet is about
2
hours.
After
t
=
3
hours , remaining drug on patient's system is
y
=
125
⋅
0.7
t
=
125
⋅
0.7

=
42.875
