Hi there!

We know that the snail lives 1 x 1/2 feet in 3 x 3/4 hours. First you have to simplify or solve the expressions. 1 x 1/2 is equal to 1/2 and 3 x 3/4 is 9/4 or 2.25 in decimal form.

You need to divide 2.25 by 1/2 or 0.5 which is 4.5.

So the snail moves 4.5 or 9/2 feet per hour.

Hope this helps !

g and Consider the following. f(x) = 4x2 + 5x − 18 (a) Find the instantaneous rate of change of the function at the value x = −4

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

a) $\frac{dy}{dx} = -27$ , b) $m = -27$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The instantaneous rate of change is:

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 8\cdot x + 5$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 8\cdot (-4)+5$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = -27$

b) The slope of the tangent line is equal to the instantaneous rate of change found previously.

$m = -27$

A certain compound has a half-life of four days. Write and use an exponential decay function to find the amount of compound rema

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

1.97 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

-The exponential decay function is given by the formula:

$P_t=P_oe^{-rt}\\\\$

Given that the half-life is 4 days, we can substitute in the formula to solve the rate of decay for a single half-life:

$P_t=P_oe^{rt}\\\\P_t=0.5P_o\\\\\therefore 0.5=e^{-4r}\\\\-4r=In(0.5)\\\\r=0.17329$

#Since, 1 week has 7 days, 3 weeks is a 21-day period, thus, t=21.

#We substitute and solve for the amount remaining after 21days of decay:

$P_t=P_oe^{-rt}\\\\=75e^{-21\times 0.17329}\\\\=1.97072\\\\\approx1.97 \ oz$

Hence, the amount remaining after 3 weeks of decays is approximately 1.97 ounces
