If the amount of money the repeat costumers give=x

then

new costumers=x-3

the equation is

40x+18(x-3)=468

1.open parentheses

40x+18x-54=468

2. add 54 on both sides

40x+18x=522

3. add the x together

58x=522

4. divide by 58 both sides

x=9

Michael charges

Repeat costumer for 9 dollars

New costumers for 6 dollars

18z + 40x = 468

z = x-3 because they get charge 3 less

x = value repeat customers pay

18(x-3) + 40x = 468

distribute the 18

18x - 54 + 40x = 468

simplify

x=9

New customers = 9

because new get charged three less they get charged 6

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (0,-5) and (4,2)?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \tt{ \frac{ 7}{4} }}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Let \: the \: points \: be \: A \: and \: B}

\sf{A \:( \: 0 \:,  - 5 \: )  \longrightarrow{ \: (x1 \:, y1)}}

\sf{B(4 \:, 2) \:  \longrightarrow{ \:( x2 \:, y2)}}

\underline{ \text{Finding \: the \: slope} }:

\boxed{ \sf{Slope =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}}}

\sf{➳ \: Slope =  \frac{2 - ( - 5)}{4  - 0}}

\sf{➳ \: Slope =  \frac{ 2 + 5}{4} }

\sf{➳ \: Slope =  \frac{7}{4} }

The half life of uranium-232 is 68.9 years. (show step by step)
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

1.) 8.09g ; 2) 206.7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Half-life(t1/2) of Uranium-232 = 68.9 years

a) If you have a 100 gram sample, how much would be left after 250 years?

Initial quantity (No) = 100g

Time elapsed (t) = 250 years

Find the quantity of substance remaining (N(t))

Recall :

N(t) = No(0.5)^(t/t1/2)

N(250) = 100(0.5)^(250/68.9)

N(250) = 100(0.5)^3.6284470

N(250) = 100 × 0.0808590

= 8.0859045

= 8.09g

2) If you have a 100 gram sample, how long would it take for there to be 12.5 grams remaining?

Using the relation :

N / No = (1/2)^n

Where N = Amount of remaining or left

No = Original quantity

n = number of half-lifes

N = 12.5g ; No = 100g

12.5 / 100 = (1/2)^n

0.125 = (1/2)^n

Converting 0.125 to fraction

(1/8) = 1/2^n

8 = 2^n

2^3 = 2^n

n = 3

Recall ;

Number of half life's (n) = t / t1/2

t = time elapsed ; t1/2 = half life

3 = t / 68.9

t = 3 × 68.9

t = 206.7 years
