If the value depreciates 8.6%, it is 91.4% of what it was the year before. The value can be modeled by
y = 19500(0.914)^x

Answer:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Sebastian swan laps every day in the community swimming pool. He swam 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks. In that time, he swam 1800 laps. What was his average rate in laps per hour?

Let us convert time taken into hours as:

$\text{Days}=5\times 12=60$

$\text{Minutes}=60\times 45$

1 hour = 60 minutes. To convert minutes into hours, we will divide total minutes by 60.

$\text{Hours}=\frac{60\times 45}{60}=45$

Now, we will divide 1800 by 45 to find average rate in laps per hour as:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{1800 laps}}{\text{45 hours}}$

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Therefore, Sebastian's average rate is 40 laps per hour.

Plutonium–238 has a yearly decay constant of 7.9 × 10-3. If an original sample has a mass of 15 grams, how long will it take to

eduard

The answer is 28 years

At = A0 * e^(-k * t)
At = 12 g
A0 = 15 g
k = 7.9 × 10^-3 = 0.0079
t = ?

12 = 15 * e^(-0.0079 * t)
12/15 = e^(-0.0079 * t)
0.8 = e^(-0.0079 * t)

Logarithm both sides (because ln(e) = 1:
ln(0.8) = ln(e^(-0.0079 * t))
ln(0.8) = (-0.0079 * t) * ln(e)
-0.223 = -0.0079 * t
t = -0.223 / -0.0079
t = 28.23
t ≈ 28 years
