Note that 8.00 = (2.00)^3, that implies that a decay to 1/8.00 means that the Carbon-14 has passed 3 half-life. (1 to decay to 1/2, other to decay to 1/4, and other to decay to 1/8). And, three half-life is 3 * 5730 years = 17,920 years. So,<span> the answer is that the plant was alive 17,920 years.</span>

Part A: The x-intercept represents the maximum amount of profit the company makes depending on the price of erasers. The intervals would be the prices of the erasers, and they represent the correlation between sale and profit. For example, when each eraser costs $4, the company makes the max profit of $270.

Part B: The average rate of change would be $91.875 and the rate represents that, on average, for each dollar that the price of the eraser jumps, the profit jumps an average of $91.875.

Part C: The constraints of the domain would be things like how the price of the erasers cannot go less than $0 or above $8; 0 \leq x \leq 8.

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 6) 3x⁴ + 20x³ + 14x² + 17x + 30 (3x³ + 2x²+ 2x + 5

       <u>  3x⁴ + 18x³  </u>

                   2x³ + 14x²

                   2<u>x³ + 12x²</u>

                              2x² + 17x

                               2<u>x² + 12x</u>

                                       5x + 30

                                       <u>5x + 30</u>

                                            0

Therefore, quotient is (3x³ + 2x²+ 2x + 5).

Option C is the correct option.

Find the diamter of a circle if its area is 706.9mm²​
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

<h2>30 mm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of an area of a circle:

A=\pi r^2

<em>r</em><em> - radius</em>

<em />

We have

A=706.9\ mm^2

Substitute:

\pi r^2=706.9          <em>divide both sides by π</em>

r^2=\dfrac{706.9}{\pi}        <em>use π ≈ 3.14</em>

r^2\approx\dfrac{706.9}{3.14}\\\\r^2\approx225\to r=\sqrt{225}\\\\r= 15\ mm

The diameter <em>d = 2r</em>.

Therefore

d=2(15)=30\ mm

You have a rack that can hold 30 CDs. You can fit 7 more CDs on the rack before the rack is full. How many CDs are in the rack?
uysha [10]
X = number of cds on the rack

x + 7 = 30
x = 30 - 7
x = 23 <== so there are currently 23 cds on the rack
