4 0

Answer:

1 represents the number of years passed.

step -by-step explanation:

The amount of a radioactive isotope decays in half every year. The amount of the isotope can be modeled by f(x) = 346 (1/2)x and f(1) = 173

Here 1 represents the number of years that passed.

So 1 represents the number of years.

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

A line has an c intercept of 3 and a y intercept of negative 6. What is the slope intercept form of it’s equation
Schach [20]

Answer:

y = 2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is  y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is already given and is -6.

By c intercept, I am assuming you meant x-intercept.  With an x-intercept of 3, the point is (3,0).  With a y-intercept of -6, the point is (0,-6).

Use the two points to find the slope using the following equation.

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}- x_{1} }

Plug the points into their respective positions and solve.

m=\frac{-6-0}{0-3}\\ m=\frac{-6}{-3} \\m=2

The slope is 2.

Your equation is  y = 2x - 6.

two gallons of paint will cover 700 square feet. How many gallons of paint are needed to cover 1,960 square feet ?
Degger [83]
5.6 gallons of paint are needed to cover 1,960 square feet. 

two gallons are needed for 700, so divide 700 by 2 to get square feet per gallon. 

then divide 1,960 by 350 to get the gallons of paint needed

5.6 gallons



Hope this helps!
