Answer:

156.25 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, for starters we know that the substance decays by 2% each day and its been decaying for 34 days. Therefore, the substance has decayed by 68%        

34 x 2 = 68

Hence, 50 grams is 32% because the substance has already decayed by 68%

100 - 68 = 32

So now we know 50 grams is 32%. Now we need to find how much 100% is.

50 - 32%

X   - 100%

We cross multiply.

50 x 100 = 5000

And divide.

5000 / 32 = 156.25

Thus, in the beginning, there were 156.25 grams in the substance.

Hope this helps! :)

Three-fourths was subtracted from a number, and then 5/4 was added to the result. The sum was -7.
Rasek [7]

Hi there!

Let's start by replacing "a number" by the letter "x" so that we can do an equation and isolate "x" to find your answer :

(x - \frac{3}{4}) + \frac{5}{4} = -7

subtract \frac{5}{4} on each side of the equation


x - \frac{3}{4} = -8.25

add \frac{3}{4} on each side of the equation

x = -7.5


-7.5 - 3/4 = -8.25

-8.25 + 5/4 = <u>-7</u>


So your answer is : Three-fourths was subtracted from -7.5, and then 5/4 was added to the result. The sum was -7.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

two people were doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes then they stopped for lunch at 1:20pm at what time did they start doin
MrMuchimi

Answer: The answer would be at 11:45.

Step-by-step explanation: First I though, if they stoppedd for lunch at 1:20 and they've been doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes, I would subtract. 1 hour taken away from 1:20 would be 12:20. Then, since it would be hard to subtract 35 minutes from 12:20, 35 minutes - 20 minutes = 15 minutes. 12:20 subtract 20 minutes = 12:00. 12:00 - 15 minutes equal to 11:45. I hope this helps. I know this explanation can be confusing but it's the best I can do at the moment.

A water balloon is 5 feet above the ground when Sally launches it into the air. Use the quadratic equation 0 = -t2 + 4t + 5 to f
Alborosie

Answer:

2-sqrt14/2, 2+sqrt13/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is you have to do the quadratic equation like it says in the problem.

x=  −b± sqrtb^2 −4ac /2a .

a=-2, b=4, c=5.

x=-4±sqrt(4)^2-4(-2)(5)/2(-2).

x=-4±sqrt16+40/-4.

x=-4±2sqrt14/-2.

2-sqrt14/2, 2+sqrt13/2. is your answer once you have done everything.

Standard deviation measures _____ risk while beta measures _____ risk.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Standard deviation measures Total risk while beta measures Systematic risk.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total risk is the total variability of the portfolio and includes the systematic risk and the unique risk.

The systematic risk is measured by the beta coefficient and it considers the no diversified risk such as changes in the global market. Unique risks are the ones that result from factors specifically related to the company.
