Faye has a drink with 120 milligrams of caffeine. Each hour, the amount of caffeine in her body will be 80% of the amount from t

he previous hour.
Use the drop-down menus to complete an inequality that can be solved to find how much time, t, it will take for there to be less than 10 milligrams of caffeine remaining in Faye's body.

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

The equation of the line that contains diagonal HM is y = 2/3 x + 7.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The slope of the line that contains diagonal OE will be = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the equation of the line that contains diagonal HM is y = 2/3 x + 7

y = 2/3 x + 7

comparing the equation with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

Thus, slope = m = 2/3

  • We know that the diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

As we have to determine the slope of the line that contains diagonal OE.

As the slope of the line that contains diagonal HM = 2/3

We also know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line.

Therefore, the slope of the line that contains diagonal

OE will be = -1/m = -1/(2/3) = -3/2

Hence, the slope of the line that contains diagonal OE will be = -3/2

The quotient rule for exponents states that bm bn=​_______, b≠0 . When dividing exponential expressions with the same nonzero​ b
wariber [46]

Answer:

The quotient rule for exponents states that b^{m}\div b^{n}=b^{m-n}.

When dividing exponential expressions with the same nonzero​ base, <u>subtract</u> the exponents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some rules to solve exponents are:

  • x^{0}=1
  • (x^{m})^{n}=x^{mn}
  • x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^{n}}
  • x^{m}\cdot x^{n}=x^{m+n}
  • \frac{x^{m}}{x^{n}}=x^{m-n}

The quotient rule for exponents states that:

b^{m}\div b^{n}=b^{m-n}.

When dividing exponential expressions with the same nonzero​ base, <u>subtract</u> the exponents.
