First you know you'll divide by -2, so the sign will be flipped.
That eliminates the first and second options, then you'll just have to do math.

A certain virus is dying off at a rate of 18% per hour. Initially there were

djyliett [7]

Answer:

3 strain would still alive after 48 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of virus = 40000 grams

A certain virus is dying off at a rate of 18% per hour.

We are supposed to find how much of the strain would still be alive after 48 hours

Formula : $N(t)=N_0(1-r)^t$

$N_0$ =Initial population

N(t)= Population after t hours

r = rate of decrease = 18% = 0.18

t = time = 48 hours

So,the strain would still be alive after 48 hours= $40000(1-0.18)^{48}=2.91 \sim 3$

Hence 3 strain would still alive after 48 hours

An arithmetic sequence begins as follows: a1=13 a2=19 Which of the following gives the definition of its nth term?

Otrada [13]

Answer:

the nth term of the sequence is $a_n=6n+7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An arithmetic sequence begins as follows: $a_1=13, a_2=19$

To find : Which of the following gives the definition of its nth term?

Solution :

The nth term of the A.P is $a_n=a+(n-1)d$

The first term is $a=a_1=13$

The common difference is $d=a_2-a_1$

$d=19-13=6$

Substitute in the formula,

$a_n=13+(n-1)6$

$a_n=13+6n-6$

$a_n=6n+7$

Therefore, the nth term of the sequence is $a_n=6n+7$

the sum of ages of father and his son is 60 years.if the difference between their ages is 40 years then find the age of father a

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Father's age is 50, Son's age is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=60

X-Y= 40

Let X represent the Father's age while Y represents the Son's age;

therefore, from the two equations, the value of X is

X= 60-Y

X= 40+Y then putting in the value of x

(40+Y) + Y= 60,

40+2Y=60

2Y=60-40 =20

Y= 10,

Now that we know the value of Y, we can get the value of x

If X+Y=60, then

X+10=60,

X=60-10,

X= 50
