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! :)

Brand X costs $1.65 for 11 ounces. Brand Y costs 2 cents more per ounce. What is the cost of 15 ounces of brand Y?

34kurt

Answer:

$2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the answer by setting up a simple equation.

Brand X is 1.65 for 11 ounces

we can find the cost of one ounce of Brand X by using division

1.65/11

.15

this means that for every ounce of Brand X, it costs 15 cents

Since brand Y costs two cents more per ounce that would make it be 17 cents per ounce

now all you need to do is multiply and solve.

.15 * 15 = $2.25

Given the lengths of two sides of a triangle, find the range for the length of the third side (between what two numbers should t

frozen [14]

Answer:

The length of the third side of given triangle lies between 6.5 and 19.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosine is as follows

$c^{2} =a^{2}+b^{2}+2abcos\alpha$ ---------------1

⇒ a and b are the given sides of the triangle and c is the third side, and $\alpha$ is the angle between a and b .

In equation 1 , the maximum and minimum values of $cos\alpha$ are 1 and -1.

so the value of c lies in between

⇒ $\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab }$ and $\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}+2ab }$ = $|a-b| and |a+b|$

Given a=13.2 and b=6.7 so the the side lies in between |13.2-6.7| and |13.2+6.7|

so the third side lies between 6.5 and 19.9
