17,190 / 5,730 = 3. This means we must divide 70mg in half 3 times

70 / 2 = 35

35 / 2 = 17.5

17.5 / 2 = 8.75

There will be 8.75 mg left after 17,190 years.

Which one of the following statements is true? (5 points)
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

  None of these statements are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The derivative of (fg)(x) is f'g +fg' according to the product rule for derivatives.

__

b) The derivative of |x² +x| is a 3-part piecewise linear function equal to 2x+1 for |x+1/2| > 1/2, and equal to -2x-1 for |x+1/2| < 1/2. It is undefined for x=0 and x=1.

__

c) for y = √f(x), y' = f'(x)/(2√f(x))

Write a story problem that includes both integers −8 and 12.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Sea level is 0 meters. A cliff by the ocean is 12 meters above sea level. Around that area, the seafloor is 8 meters below sea level. How many meters  is the top of the cliff to the seafloor?

How to solve:

8 below zero is -8

The expression 12 - (-8) is the same as the expression 12 + 8

12 + 8 = 20

20 meters

Answer:

  • slope: 0
  • equation: y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The y-coordinates of points A and B are both -2, so there is no change in the y-value between those points. The x-coordinates differ by 4, so the slope is ...

... slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = 0/4 = 0

b) The y-value is constant at -2 for any value of x, so the equation of the line is ...

... y = -2

How many solutions does the pair of equations y = 0 and y = -5 have?
Crank

Answer: None

Step-by-step explanation:

y=0 and y=-5 don't have any solutions. When you ask if a pair of equations have a solution, that means there is an intersection of the equations. The 2 equations will meet somewhere, and that is the solution. To find the solution, you set the equations equal to each other.

0≠-5

It is obvious that 0 and -5 are not equal to each other. Therefore, there is no solution. Also, y=0 and y=-5 are horizontal lines that are parallel to each other. They will never meet, which means there will be no intersection. No intersection means no solutions.
