 <span>Formula for exponential decay is: 

N = No * e^-kt 

N = 1/2(45) = 22.5 

No = 45 

k = 0.1109 
The solution to your problem is as follows:

Let's try to solve the half-life if it is 45 grams, after which, you will now have an idea on how to solve the problem.

22.5 = 45 * e^(-0.1109t) 

1/2 = e^(-0.1109t) 

ln(1/2) = -0.1109t 

t = (ln(1/2))/(-0.1109) = 6.25 days


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Determine if the following system of equations has no solutions, infinitely many
Lesechka [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 5x+6=1

5x=1-6

5x=-5

<h3> x=-1</h3>
  • x=-1 in -5x-8y=2

-5(-1)-8y=2

5-8y=2

-8y =2-5

-8y=-3

<h3> y=3/8</h3>

It would be much easier if you attached a table. Anyway I know what you need to do. Just make an equation and put the numbers from the table given you in the task. And you'll solve it.

A is the point (-2, 0) and B is the point (0, 4).Find the equation of the straight line joining A and B.
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

y = 2*x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a linear function can be written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We know that if this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope can be written as:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

So, here we know that our line must pass through the points (-2,0) and (0, 4)

Then the slope of this line is:

a = (4 - 0)/(0 - (-2))

a = 4/2 = 2

Then our line is something like:

y = 2*x + b

Now, to find the value of b we can use one of these two points, for example if we use the point (-2, 0), we know that, when x = -2, we must have y = 0.

0 = 2*(-2) + b

0 = -4 + b

4 = b

Then the equation for our line is:

y = 2*x + 4
