240 days is 4 times the half-life, which means that a sample of 1000 mg will decay to

$\dfrac{1000}{2^4}=\dfrac{125}2=62.5\,\mathrm{mg}$

after 240 days.

Answer:

$C=0.65M+22.65$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard charge includes an initial fee and plus an addditional fee for each mile driven and is given by:

$S=0.40M+17.75$

The insurance charge is given by:

$I=0.25M+4.90$

So, the total charge C will be the sum of the standard charge S and the insurance charge I:

$C=S+I$

Substitute:

$C=(0.40M+17.75)+(0.25M+4.90)$

Rearrange:

$C=(0.40M+0.25M)+(17.75+4.90)$

Add:

$C=0.65M+22.65$

And we have acauired our equation relating C to M!

1. round the result to 2 decimal places. -0.9x+2.8=4.1

1. <span>-0.9x+2.8=4.1
First subtract 2.8 from both sides.
-0.9x = 1.3
Now divide both sides by -0.9.
x = -1.4444..
This can be rounded to -1.44
</span><span>c) -1.44

3,000 feet i think since the formula is width *height *length so it should be correct.
