Answer:

  3 minute    35.969420299997999 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay in simple words its 3 minute and 35 seconds or something.

Since we want to leave 2 grams ,

Amount to decay = 680-2

                             = 678g

Amount decayed per minute = 27.7 %

Amount decayed per minute ( in grams) = 188.36 g

Amount decayed per second ( in gram ) = 3.139333333g

Your required Ans =  678  /  3.139333333

                               = 215.9694203 seconds

                                i have converted them to minute in the title  : D

Evaluate.<br> 3^2 + 12 ÷ (6 - 3) x 8
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

38 is your answer :)

Step-by-step explanation:

So what you want to do is P.E.M.D.A.S (parenthesis, exponets, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction) * whatever comes first always do it in order*

3^2+12/ (6-3) x 8

6-3 = 3

3^2+12/(3)*8

3^2+4*8

6+4*8 =32 and 32+6 = 38

Show that n(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6<br>Solution<br>(​
vladimir2022 [97]

Proof by induction

Base case:

n=1: 1*2*3=6 is obviously divisible by six.

Assumption: For every n>1 n(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6.

For n+1:

(n+1)(n+2)(n+3)=

(n(n+1)(n+2)+3(n+1)(n+2))

We have assumed that n(n+1)(n+2) is divisble by 6.

We now only need to prove that 3(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6.

If 3(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6, then (n+1)(n+2) must be divisible by 2.

The "cool" part about this proof.

Since n is a natural number greater than 1 we can say the following:

If n is an odd number, then n+1 is even, then n+1 is divisible by 2 thus (n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 2,so we have proved what we wanted.

If n is an even number" then n+2 is even, then n+1 is divisible by 2 thus (n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 2,so we have proved what we wanted.

Therefore by using the method of mathematical induction we proved that for every natural number n, n(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6. QED.

Gym A charges a new member fee of $65 and $20 per month Gym B charges a new member fee of $25 and $35 per month but you get a di
Vinvika [58]

Answer: it will take 5 months for both gyms to cost the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of months for which the total cost of gyms are the same.

Gym A charges a new member fee of $65 and $20 per month. This means that the cost of using gym A for x months would be

20x + 65

Gym B charges a new member fee of $25 and $35 per month but you get a discount of 20% monthly.

20% of 35 is 20/100 × 35 = 7

The monthly charge would be

35 - 7 = 28

This means that the cost of using gym A for x months would be

28x + 25

The number of months that it will take for the cost of both gyms to be the same would be

20x + 65 = 28x + 25

28x - 20x = 65 - 25

8x = 40

x = 40/8 = 5
