Using a spectrometer, a sample was analyzed to have a percent transmittance of 85%. This means that the remainder of the light was absorbed by the sample given in the question.

Now, from the 100% light that has been incident on the sample, if 85% was transmitted, then the percentage of light was actually absorbed by the sample can be found out as:

percentage of light was actually absorbed by the sample=100% - (percentage of light transmitted by the sample)

Therefore, percentage of light was actually absorbed by the sample=100%-85%=15%

Thus, 15% light was actually absorbed by the sample.

Answer:

Jordan

Step-by-step explanation:

Because each person is in debt the one with the least amount of dept will pay less. Think of it like this:

You owe the bank 85 dollars so your account balance is -85 since you owe money

if you were to owe 100 dollars then you owe more money.

Therefore owing 85 dollars is the least amount of money owed in this case

Part 1: Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (–1, –4) and (2, 5).
jeyben [28]
Y - (-4) = (5 - (-4))/(2 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y + 4 = (5 + 4)/(2 + 1) (x + 1)
y + 4 = 9/3 (x + 1)
y + 4 = 3(x + 1)
y + 4 = 3x + 3
y = 3x + 3 - 4
y = 3x - 1
