Answer:

D(t)=100(0.4)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

The temp is 100 at time t = 0

After 1 sec, the temp difference would be:

100-(\frac{100-60}{100})

After 2 sec, the temp difference would be:

100-(\frac{100-60}{100})^2

Similarly for 3 seconds, 4 seconds etc.

We notice that the parenthesis part is 40% of it, so we can also write:

100(40%)^t,

where

t is the time

40% can be written as 40/100  = 0.4

SO, the function is:

d(t)=100(0.4)^t

Answer:

D(t)=100*0.4^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, the difference between the rod's and the water's temperatures is 100°

i.e D(t)=100 When t=0

After 1 seconds, the temp drops by 60%.

Therefore, the new value of D will be the old value multiplied by (100-60)%.

D(1)=100 X (100%-60%) = 100*0.4

After 2 seconds, the temp difference would be:

D(2)=100*0.4*0.4= 100*0.4^2

We notice that for any t, the percentage at which the difference is reduced is raised to the power of t.

Therefore, temperature difference in degrees Celsius, D(t), t seconds after the rod was plunged into the water is given as:

D(t)=100*0.4^t

Use the commutative law of addition to write a equivalent expression ab+c
Scilla [17]

Answer:

c + ab

Step-by-step explanation:

The way an expression is written is the given you have presented to us.

The commutative law of addition would turn it around as

c + ab.

It just means change the order when adding. Not all systems allow this. It matters which way you put it in some systems.

7w−(2+w)=2(3w−1)
Llana [10]
Simplify brackets

(7w - 2 - w = 2(3w - 1)

simplify 7w - 2 - w to 6w - 2

(6w - 2 = 2(3w - 1)

Expand

(6w - 2 = 6w - 2)

Since both sides are equal, there are infinitely many solutions

Answer: C) INFINITELY MANY
