Answer:

<em>12 hours </em>are required to be less than 10 milligrams of caffeine in Faye's body

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Geometric sequences </u>

We can recognize a geometric progression, when we can get each member n as the previous member n-1 multiplied or divided by a constant value, called the common ratio.

Faye holds 120 milligrams of caffeine. We know each hour the amount of caffeine in her body will be 80% of the amount from the previous hour. For example, the first hour she will hold 80%(120)=96 milligrams of caffeine. Next hour it will be 80%(96)=76.8 and so on

We can see the sequence of contents of caffeine follows the rule of a geometric sequence and the common ratio is 80%, i.e. 0.8. The first term is 120, so the general term of the sequence is

a_t=120(0.8)^t\ ,\ t>=0

We are required to find how much time is needed to be less than 10 milligrams of caffeine remaining in Faye's body. It can be stated that

120(0.8)^t

Let's solve for t. Operating

(0.8)^t

Taking logarithms in both sides

ln(0.8)^t

Applying the power property of logarithms

t\ ln(0.8)

Solving for t. Since ln0.8 is negative, the direction of the inequality changes

t>\frac{ln\frac{10}{120}}{ln(0.8)}

t>11.14

Rounding to the next integer

12 hours are required to be less than 10 milligrams of caffeine in Faye's body

At the city triathlon, athletes bike 110 miles, run a 23.5 miles marathon, and swim. If the total distance of this triathlon is
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: 2.20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The triathlon involves the bike race, swimming and the marathon.

You are given the distance for the marathon, the biking and the total distance.

Total distance = Swimming + Marathon + Biking

135.7 = Swimming + 23.5 + 110

Swimming = 135.7 - 23.5 - 110

Swimming = 2.20 miles

PLEASE HELP!! I need this completed ASAP but I don't understand any of it!! It's due very soon!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) you know interest is 22 and principal is 1000 and number of months is 1

b) I = rPm

   r = I/Pm

c) r = 22 / 1000(1) = 0.022 /month or 2.2% per month

or 12(0.022) = 0.264 or 26.4 % per year.

d) interest is $15, loan period is 2 weeks which occurs once during the loan, interest rate is 10% per two weeks.

P = I/rm

e) P = 15 / 0.10 = $150

Notice that there are 52 weeks/yr / 2week loan period = 26 period in a year.

This means that the APR is 0.10(26) = 2.60 or 260% annual interest rate. Pretty good return on investment if you are the lender and can keep your money lent out. Not so good if you are the borrower.
