Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Emily solved for a part when she should have solved for the whole. 875,000 should be the numerator of the equivalent ratio. 70 x 12,500 is 875,000. So the answer is 100 x 12,500 which is 1,250,000.

Answer:

1250000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of the total number of shoes sold be 'y'

y*(70/100)= 875000

70y = 875000*100

y = (875000*100)/70

y = 1250000

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and (0,-4)
Arte-miy333 [17]

y = mx + b

To find the slope(m), you use the slope formula:

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

You plug in the points into the equation.

m = \frac{-4 - (-4)}{0 - 2}

m = \frac{-4+4}{0-2} = \frac{0}{-2} =0

The slope is 0

y = 0x + b

Any number multiplied by 0 is 0. So:

y = b

To find b, you plug in the y value of either of the points.

-4 = b

Your equation is:

y = -4 (This is a horizontal line)

Ben consumes an energy drink that contains caffeine. After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decr
Airida [17]

Answer:

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

Step-by-step explanation:

After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decreases exponentially.

This means that the amount of caffeine after t hours is given by:

A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722.

1 - 0.2722 = 0.7278, thus, A(10) = 0.7278A(0). We use this to find k.

A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}

0.7278A(0) = A(0)e^{-10k}

e^{-10k} = 0.7278

\ln{e^{-10k}} = \ln{0.7278}

-10k = \ln{0.7278}

k = -\frac{\ln{0.7278}}{10}

k = 0.03177289938&#10;

Then

A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938t}

What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body?

We have to find find A(5), as a function of A(0). So

A(5) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938*5}

A(5) = 0.8531

The decay factor is:

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.
