Answer:

a becomes a/2 in exponential decay factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to explain what does half-life mean in exponential decay

The general function of exponential decay is y=a\cdot b^x

Here, a is the initial value

And when the initial value gets half is known as half life in exponential decay

b is the decay factor in the formula

After half-life a becomes a/2

Solve for g.
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

g =6/5                           g=-5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(5g − 6)(2g + 5) = 0

Using the zero product property

(5g − 6)  =0          (2g + 5) = 0

5g-6+6 =0+6             2g+5-5=0-5

5g =6                          2g =-5

5g/5 = 6/5                  2g/2 =-5/2

g =6/5                           g=-5/2

Zach is a shoe salesman, and he works on commission. This week, there is a special incentive to sell shoes and boots by a certai
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Zach earns $10 and for the pair of boots Zach earns $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be x the number of pairs of shoes

Let be y the number of pairs of boots

Then we can establish the following system of equations with the data of the statement:

5x + 9y = 185 \\7x + 9y = 205

We subtract the second equation from the first equation to eliminate the variable y and solve for x, just like this:

7x+9y-5x-9y=205-185\\2x=20\\x=\frac{20}{2}\\x=10

For y replacing in the first equation the value of x and solving for y:

5.10 + 9y = 185\\9y=185-50\\y=\frac{135}{9}\\y=15

So for the pair of shoes Zach earns $10 and for the pair of boots Zach earns $15
