There will be 38 grams remaining.

The equation would be of the form
y = a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the initial value, r is the rate as a decimal number, and x is the amount of time.  Using our values from the problem, we have:

y = 670(1-0.273)^9 = 670(0.727)^9 = 38

Answer: 38.0 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay equation with rate of decay r in time period x is given by :-

f(x)=A(1-r)^x, A is the initial value .

Given: The initial mass of element=  670 grams

Rate of decay= 27.3%=0.273

Now, the function represents amount of element after x minutes is given by ;-

f(x)=670(1-0.273)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ f(x)=670(0.727)^x

Now, the function represents the amount of element after 9 minutes is given by ;-

f(x)=670(1-0.273)^9\\\\\Rightarrow\ f(x)=38.0088299313\approx38.0\text{ grams}

Hence, 38.0 grams of element remains after 9 minutes.

Triangle ABC has side lengths:
Harlamova29_29 [7]

The length of HJ is 3.5 cm

<h3>What is Congruency?</h3>

Two geometric figures are said to be congruent, or to be in the relation of congruence, if it is possible to superpose one of them on the other so that they coincide throughout.

Given:

AB = 3.5 cm, BC = 2.4 cm, and AC = 4.2 cm

As, ΔABC ≅ ΔHJK

So,

AB = HJ

BC = JK

AC = HK

Thus, HJ= AB = 3.5 cm
