The answer you are looking for is B, there is a small chance of the event occurring.

B. There is a small chance that the event will occur.
C and D are definitely wrong since 0.001 is equal to 0.1%, that's not even 1%.
But even though it's small, that doesn't mean it's impossible, just highly unlikely.
So the answer is B.

Answer:

C). 0.39 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

First find how many half-lifes are in 3 hours:

3 hours ÷ 20 minutes = 9 half-lifes

Find the total left:

0.5^9*200 ≈ 0.39

there are 800 seats in the varsity theater. during regular preformances, all seats cost $12 each. It costs the owner $275 to pay

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The correct answers are the following:

A) P=12n-275

B) 124

C) Decrease by $100

Step-by-step explanation:

A) P=12n-275  - Each person (n) pays $12, then the cost/expense ($275) is subtracted from the income to get the profit.

B) 1,213=12n-275 - Plug in the value for P ($1,213).

1,488=12n - Add $275 to both sides.

124=n - Divide both sides by $12.

n=124  - This the number (n) of people that attended.

C) P=12n-375 - Change the value for expense to $375.

P=12(124)-375 - Plug in the value for n (124).

P=1488-375 - Simplify and find the difference.

P=1,113 - This is your profit.

1,113-1,213=-100  - $100 reduction/decrease of profit (or -$100 to profit)

Hope this helps!

Which expression is equivalent to (16 x Superscript 8 Baseline y Superscript negative 12 Baseline) Superscript one-half?.

loris [4]

To solve the problem we must know the Basic Rules of Exponentiation.

<h2>Basic Rules of Exponentiation</h2>

$x^ax^b = x^{(a+b)}$
$\dfrac{x^a}{x^b} = x^{(a-b)}$
$(a^a)^b =x^{(a\times b)}$
$(xy)^a = x^ay^a$

$x^{\frac{3}{4}} = \sqrt[4]{x^3}= (\sqrt[3]{x})^4$

The solution of the expression is $\dfrac{4x^4}{y^6}$ .

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given to us

$(16x^8y^{12})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

Solution

We know that 16 can be reduced to $2^4$ ,

$=(2^4x^8y^{12})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

Using identity $(xy)^a = x^ay^a$ ,

$=(2^4)^{\frac{1}{2}}(x^8)^{\frac{1}{2}}(y^{12})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

Using identity $(a^a)^b =x^{(a\times b)}$ ,

$=(2^{4\times \frac{1}{2}})\ (x^{8\times\frac{1}{2}})\ (y^{12\times{\frac{1}{2}}})$

Solving further

$=2^2x^4y^{-6}$

Using identity $\dfrac{x^a}{x^b} = x^{(a-b)}$ ,

$=\dfrac{2^2x^4}{y^6}$

$=\dfrac{4x^4}{y^6}$

Hence, the solution of the expression is $\dfrac{4x^4}{y^6}$ .
