Answer:

<h2>After 5 minutes, it remains 75.73 grams of mass.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Each minute, the mass is decreased by a 25.5%. So, we can find the mass after each minute period.

<h3>First minute.</h3>

330gr-0.255(330gr)=(330-84.15)gr=245.85 gr

<h3>Second minute.</h3>

245.85-0.255(245.85)=245.85-62.69=183.16gr

<h3>Third minute.</h3>

183.16-0.255(183.16)=183.16-46.70=136.45gr

<h3>Fourth minute.</h3>

136.45-0.255(136.45)=136.45-34.80=101.65

<h3>Fifth minute.</h3>

101.65-0.255(101.65)=101.65-25.92=75.73gr

Therefore, after 5 minutes, it remains 75.73 grams of mass.

Equation: 330-.255(5)=X. Multiply: .255(5)=1.275, 330-1.275=X. Subtract: 330-1.275=328.725 or 328.73 :)

which transformation causes the described change in the graph of the function y = cos x? the transformation results in a horizon
luda_lava [24]
The transformations that can occur to the graph of the function y = cos x that will exhibit changes would be changes to the angle, or changes to the coefficient. The transformations can be viewed as follows:

y = cos x transforms to y = cos (kx)

k > 1 ; a horizontal shrink occurs
0 < k < 1 ; a horizontal stretch occurs

y = cos x transforms to y = A cos x

|A| > 1 ; a vertical stretch occurs
|A| < 1 ; a vertical shrink occurs
