Answer:
- B: The pesticide DDT has a half-life of 15 years.
- C: March Madness has 64 teams in the bracket. Each round, half the teams are eliminated.
- D: After an antibiotic is added to a culture of bacteria, the number of bacteria is reduced by half every three hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential decay describes a situation in which the dependent variable is reduced by the same factor when the independent variable is increased by the same amount.
A — the population is increasing, not being reduced
B — the amount is cut in half when time increases by 15 years (exp. decay)
C — the number of teams is cut in half when the number of rounds increases by 1 (exp. decay)
D — the amount is cut in half when time increases by 3 hours (exp. decay)
E — the population is increasing, not being reduced
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar so we can use ratios to solve
x 4
----- = -----------
4.5 6
Using cross products
6x = 4.5 * 4
6x =18
Divide by 6
6x/6 = 18/6
x = 3
The mass is 256.7 because you round it up from 7.
Answer:
20 x 30 = 600
3,600/600=6
Check if it works
20 x 30 = 600
600 x 6 = 3,600
the missing width is 6
