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.

Distribute +1
78=1/2x+x-6
combine like terms
1=(2/2)
(1/2)+(2/2)= 3/2
78=3/2x-6
Add 6 to both sides
84=3/2x
Divide by (3/2)
x=$56=adult ticket
Child ticket = x-6=56-6=$50

How to find Co factor of elements of Determinant​
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily find the determinant of a matrix of which will be the cofactor of 2. Multiplying the diagonal elements of the matrix, we get. Now subtract the value of the second diagonal from the first, i.e, 48 – 3 = 45. Check the sign that is assigned to the number
