Answer:

t = 5.6 day

t =5 days 14 hours 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Half life is the time it will take for the original value or quantity I'd a particular substance to decrease by half of it's original self.

N = N•e(-kt)

N• = 25

K = 0.1229

Then

N = 25/2 = 12.5

The reason because at the half life , it's original value will decrease to half.

Let's solve for the half life t

N = N•e(-kt)

12.5 = 25e(-0.1229t)

12.5/25 = e(-0.1229t)

0.5 = e(-0.1229t)

In 0.5 =-0.1229t

-0.69314 = -0.1229t

-0.69314/-0.1229 = t

5.6399 = t

To the nearest tenth

5.6 days = t

At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.

Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals

Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.

x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals

Derek made 7 withdrawals

So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x

John made 5 withdrawals

So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)

Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end

(A) 7x = 5(x+5)

(B) Solve for x

7x = 5x + 25

Subtract 5x from both sides

2x = 25

Divide by 2

x = 12.5

we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25

7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25

87.5 = 62.5+ 25

87.5 = 87.5

(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars

Explain the distance formula. Then use it to calculate the

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

$dAB=10\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>distance formula</u> is derived by creating a triangle and using the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse of the triangle is the distance between the two points

The formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

A(1, 1) and B(7, −7)

Let

(x1,y1)=A(1, 1)

(x2,y2)=B(7, −7)

substitute the given values in the formula

$dAB=\sqrt{(-7-1)^{2}+(7-1)^{2}}$

$dAB=\sqrt{(-8)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$dAB=\sqrt{64+36}$

$dAB=\sqrt{100}$

$dAB=10\ units$
