Answer:
λN N(0) = 6
N(t) = N₀e^(λt)
Applying the inital value condition
N(t) = 6e^(λt)
Step-by-step explanation:
Summarizing the information briefly and stating the variables in the problem.
t = time elapsed during the decay
N(t) = the amount of the radioactive substance remaining after time t
λ= The constant of proportionality is called the decay constant or decay rate
Given the initial conditions
N(0) = N₀ = 6
The rate at which a quantity of a radioactive substance decays () is proportional to the quantity of the substance (N) and λ is the constant of proportionality is called the decay constant or decay rate :
λN
N(t) = N₀e^(λt) ......equ 1
substituting the value of N₀ = 6 into equation 1
N(t) = 6e^(λt)
Answer:
Slope, m = 1100
y-intercept,c = 2491
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
The above gives the altitude of the airplane above the sea level in feet(y) after x minutes since the take off.
Comparing the above equation, to a general linear equation, we have,
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
Comparing we get,
Slope, m = 1100
y-intercept,c = 2491
Interpretation:
- The slope of equation tells us about the rate of change of function with unit increase in value of x. Thus, the altitude of airplane increases 1100 feet when the time increases by 1 minute.
- The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0. Thus, the altitude of airplane is 2491 feet when the airplane has not taken off.
