This is an equation of exponential decay
y(t) = a b^ t where a is the initial amount
b is the decay factor
t is the time in years
b is found by taking 1 and subtracting the percent it decreases in decimal form
Letting t =4
y(t) = 260 million * ( 1- .011) ^ 4
=248.7473796 million
=24874737.96
Rounding to a whole number
= 24874738
Answer:
The coach can do this in 3,003 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the coach needs to select a team of 5 from a total of 15 players
Mathematically, the number of ways this can be done is simply 15 C5 ways
Generally, if we are to select a number of r items from n items, this can be done in nCr ways = n!/(n-r)!r!
Applying this to the situation on ground, we have;
15C5 = 15!/(15-5)!5! = 15!/10!5! = 3,003 ways
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to study the fuel consumption of each car, i.e the amount of mile per gallon the cars will consume
Step one:
given data:
First car
distance covered= 41 1/2 = 41.5miles
amount of gallons= 1 1/4= 1.25gal
the miles per gallons= 41.5/1.25=33.2 miles per gallon
Second car
distance covered= 21 3/5= 21.6miles
amount of gallons=4/5= 0.8gal
the miles per gallons= 21.6/0.8=27 miles per gallon
1. Therefore the unit rate of
the first car = 33.2 miles per gallon
the second car=27 miles per gallon
2. the first car can travel a greater distance on 1 gallon of gasoline
600 * .34 = 204 are in 8th grade
204 * 1/4 = 51 51 8th graders walk to school
