$50.00 after 0 months and $37.50 after 6 months.

We first must calculate half-life using the attached formula.

Half-Life = (time * ln(2)) / ln (beginning amount/ending amount)

Half-Life = (6 * 0.69314718056) / ln (50.00 / 37.50)

Half-Life = ( 4.1588830834 ) / ln ( 1.3333333333 )

Half-Life = ( 4.1588830834 ) / 0.28768207245

Half-Life = 14.456525038 months


Now we need to calculate "lambda"

lambda = ln(2) / half-life

lambda = 0.69314718056 / 14.456525038

lambda = 0.0479470121


Next we have to use this formula:

Ending Amount = beginning amount • e^( -lambda • time )

(where "e" is the mathematical constant 2.718281828...)

Ending Amount = 50 * 2.718281828^(-0.0479470121*24 months)

Ending Amount = 50 * 2.718281828^(-1.1507282904)

Ending Amount = 50 * 0.3164062499

Ending Amount = 15.82 dollars


**********************************************************************

As a DOUBLE-CHECK we can work this out every 6 months:


0 months $50

6 months = $50 - (50 *.25) = 37.50

12 months = $37.50 -(37.50 *.25) = 28.125

18 months = $28.125 -(28.125 * .25) = 21.09375

24 months = $21.09375 -(21.09375 * .25) = 15.8203125

koban [17]

Answer:

D. 45 degree counterclockwise rotation

Step-by-step explanation: :              

The original image is triangle TUV and it has been rotated counter clockwise to form triangle T'U'V' using the origin as the center of rotation. . The rotation is 45 degrees rotation.                                

Hence, option B is correct.

Please help just looking for the answer
avanturin [10]

Answer: Correct Answer is 4th option , 28


Step-by-step explanation:


We can find the measure of the angle using the tangent.


We know, tangent of an angle = Perpendicular/Base, corresponding to that angle.


So, Tan of angle T = RG / RT

or, Tan of angle T = 8/15

or, angle T = tan inverese of 8/15

or, angle T = 28.07


So, angle T rounded to nearest degree = 28


Hope this helps.


Thank you.
