Hello! Could y’all please explain why this is Decay and not growth?

Mathematics
1 answer:
svetlana [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

This is an Exponential Decay

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1200(0.85)⁶

The above expression is an Exponential Decay because 0.85 is less than 1

The formula for Exponential Decay

= y = a (1 - r)^t

We equate both equation together

Where

a = 1200

1 - r = 0.85

t = 6

Solving for r

1 - r = 0.85

r = 1 - 0.85

r = 0.15

Converting to Percentage

r = 15% decay rate

Write 8 is the whole number 11 is the <br>numerator and 20 is the denominator ​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Fraction: 8 \frac{11}{20}

Decimal: 8.55

Step-by-step explanation:

8 11/20 is the answer because:

1) Since 8 is the whole number, 8 wouldn't be part of the fraction

2) The numerator is the top number in the fraction, so 11 is at the top since 11 is the numerator

3) The denominator is the bottom number in the fraction, so 20 is at the top since 20 is the denominator

8.55 is the answer because:

1) Since 8 is the whole number, 8 would be in front of the decimal point

2) When you multiply the fractions, you have to multiply until you get a hundred. Therefore, 20*5 = 100 and 11*5 = 55

Hope this helps!

Mr. Gurung sold a bicycle for Rs 18,816 and made a profit of 12%. if he wants
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Rs. 23520

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

At 12% profit ; sales price = 18,816

At (12 + 3)% profit ; sales price = x

Hence,

0.12 = 18,816

0.15 = x

Cross multiply ;

0.12x = 0.15 * 18816

0.12x = 2822.4

x = 2822.4 / 0.12

x = 23520

Hence, sales price for a 3% increaa in profit should be Rs. 23520
