At an opening of a new art gallery the owner hired a caterer to serve light snacks. The owner created a budget for 150 people to

attend the opening, with a per person food cost of $4.25. If the number of guests attending the opening was 56% more than expected, then how much more would the amount budgeted for food increase

Answer: $357 is more amount budgeted for food increase.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people according to the budget = 150

Cost of food per person= $4.25

Total cost of food is given by

150\times 4.25=\$637.5

If the number of guests attending the opening was 56% more than expected,

So, number of guests now is given by

150\times 0.56=84\\\\150+84=234

Total cost of food is given by

234\times 4.25=\$994.5

Difference between them is given by

994.5-637.5=\$357

Hence, $357 is more amount budgeted for food increase.

A scientist left a 32-gram sample of a radioactive substance out and it was exposed to the air. After 30 minutes, only 26 grams
crimeas [40]

Answer:

There were 1.155 g of the substance eight hours later and it's halflife time is 1.66943 h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since radiactive decay is expressed by a exponential function of the following kind:

mass(t) = mass(0)*e^(-a*t)

Where mass(t) is the mass of the substance at a given time, mass(0) is the inital mass substance, a is a factor that defines how fast the substance will decay and t is the elapsed time. The problem provided us with all the needed information to create the expression, with the exception of the "a". So we can apply it to the known point in order to determine "a". We have:

mass(0.5) = 32*e^(-a*0.5)

26 = 32*e^(-a*0.5)

e^(-0.5*a) = 26 / 32

e^(-0.5*a) = 0.8125

ln[e^(-0.5*a)] = ln(0.8125)

-0.5*a*ln(e) = ln(0.8125)

-0.5*a = ln(0.8125)

a = -ln(0.8125)/0.5 = 0.4152

So the expression that represents the mass of the substance over time is given by:

mass(t) = 32*e^(-0.4152*t)

After 8 hours we have:

mass(8) = 32*e^(-0.4152*8) = 32*e^(-3.3216) = 1.155 g

The half life is the time it'll take to reach half it's original mass, therefore:

16 = 32*e^(-0.4152*t)

32*e^(-0.4152*t) = 16

e^(-0.4152*t) = 16 / 32

e^(-0.4152*t) = 0.5

ln[e^(-0.4152*t)] = ln(0.5)

-0.4152*t = ln(0.5)

t = -ln(0.5)/0.4152 = 1.66943 h
