Answer:
the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:
<em>After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere from a nuclear power plant, the hay was contaminated by iodine 131 ( half-life, 8 days). If it is all right to feed the hay to cows when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers need to wait to use this hay? </em>
iodine's half life (we are given x, we need to find b):
0.5A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ
x = 8 days
we eliminate A₀ from both sides
0.5 = eᵇ⁸
ln 0.5 = ln eᵇ⁸
-0.69315 = b8
b = -0.69315 / 8 = -0.08664
since the farmers need to wait until only 10% of the iodine remains (we already calculated b, now we need to find x):
0.1A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ
0.1 = eᵇˣ
ln 0.1 = bx
where b = -0.08664
x = ln 0.1 / -0.08664 = -2.302585 / -0.08664 = 26.58 days
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In
, notice the third term of the quadratic in standard form is formed entirely by
.
Therefore, in
:
.
Now that we found
, we must find
. The first term of the quadratic in standard form is formed entirely by
. Therefore:
.

Hello.
The mathematical concept of this problem is basic once you get down to it. The question asks, "How many
times more minutes does Shawn listen to than Greg?"
Remember the "How many" rules:
· "How many more" suggests
subtraction· "How many times" suggests
divisionLet's also take a look at our opening sentence: "For every 9 minutes of music Shawn listens to, Greg listens to 4 minutes of music." This means we can set it up as a fraction, as we have the phrase "For every" in our sentence. So, let's do that.

is our fraction;
To simplify, we need to divide our numerator (the number on the top) by our denominator (the number on the bottom).
9 / 4 = 2.5
This is our rate, or how many
times more music Shawn listens to than Greg.
Your answer is: "Shawn listens to 2.5 times more music than Greg."
I hope this helps!
