Answer:
y = 650·0.922^t
Step-by-step explanation:
At the end of each year, 92.2% of the amount at the beginning of the year remains. That is, the beginning amount is multiplied by 0.922. The exponent t in 0.922^t tells how many times (years) that multiplication has taken place. At the end of t years, the amount remaining in milligrams (y) is ...
y = 650·0.922^t
Answer:
Height = 5 ft
Short base = 10 ft
Long base = 14 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h = height, a = short base, b = long base.
From the question,
a = 2h
b = a + 4 = 2h + 4
The area of the trapezoid is given by 
. Thus,
or 
or 
We discard the negative value of h since it is a measurement and cannot be negative.
If you're only counting the smallest triangles, then 8.
If you're counting all possible triangles including triangles made of other triangles, then 16. Each diagonal gives 2, the combined diagonals give 4, and the unit triangles give 8 for a total of 2 + 2 + 4 + 8 = 16.
