To get ready for the new season Jayden bought new basketball sneakers. Jayden paid $96.12 after paying the 8% tax. How much were

Nataly [62]

You would take the amount of increase and divide it by the amount of total cost over the time period of certain months. Then you would multiply that number by the percentage of increase gained, and subtract 96.12 to get your answer.

Radioactive Waste The rate at which radioactive waste is entering the atmosphere at time t is decreasing and is given by Pe^-kt,

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

$\displaystyle{\int^{\infty}_0 {50e^{-0.04t}}\, dt}=1250$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$T =\displaystyle{\int^{\infty}_0 {Pe^{-kt}} \, dt}$

where,

T = total amount of waste

P = 50, the initial rate

k = 0.04

t = time

$T =\displaystyle{\int^{\infty}_0 {50e^{-0.04t}} \, dt}$

now we need to solve this integral!

$T =\displaystyle{50\int^{\infty}_0 {e^{-0.04t}} \, dt}$

$T = \left|50\left(\dfrac{e^{-0.04t}}{-0.04}\right)\right|^{\infty}_0$

$T = \left|-1250e^{-0.04t}\right|^{\infty}_0$

$T = (-1250e^{-0.04(\infty)})-(-1250e^{-0.04(0)})$

when any number has a power of negative infinity it is 0. because: $a^-{\infty} = \dfrac{1}{a^{\infty}} = \dfrac{1}{\infty} = 0$ , like something being divided by a very large number!

$T = (-1250(0))-(-1250e^0)$

$T = 1250$

this is the total amount of waste
