Answer:

S(t) = 600/(0.9^t)

Step-by-step explanation:

Current mass: 600 grams

If every millennium loss 10% of its mass, it retains 90%, so a millennium ago the mass was: 600/0.9 = 666.67 grams; two millennia it was: 666.67/0.9 = 600/(0.9^2) = 740.74, and so on.

Then, the explicit formula is:

S(t) = 600/(0.9^t)

where t refers to millennia from today.

Answer:

The answer to your question is Area = 6 u²

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

To find the area of the picture divide the figure between a square and a right triangle, determine the area of each figure and finally add them up.

1.- Calculate the area of the square

Area = side x side

        = 2 x 2

        = 4 u²

2.- Calculate the area of the triangle

Area = base x height / 2

base = 2   height = 2

Area = 2 x 2 /2

Area = 2 u₂

3.- Total area

Area = 4 + 2

       = 6 u²

I need help with this!!!!
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

  D:  2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:

  BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1

Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.

__

None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.

While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.

There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.
