Answer: A. There were 500 liters in the tank when the leak started, and it is decreasing by 9 liters per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation is in the form; y =mx + c.

c in this equation is the value of y when x is at 0.

c in the above formula is 500 which means that the number of litres (y) at zero minutes(x) is 500 litres.

m is the rate of change as a result of a change in x.

m in this equation is -9 which means that the water is reducing by 9 litres every minute (x).

In four years, 40% of a radioactive element decays. Find its half-life. Round to one decimal place.

White raven [17]

To find the answer, use $k = \frac{2.303 }{ 4} (log\frac {100 }{ 40})$ , and then use the equation $t=\frac{.693}{k}$ To find it's half life.

OC and OR are similar. Find the length of QP.

Elena L [17]

Given:

Circle C and circle R are similar.

The length of arc AB is $s = \frac{22 \pi}{9}$

The radius of circle C (AC) = 4 unit

The radius of circle R (QR) =6 unit

To find the length of arc QP.

Formula

The relation between s, r and $\theta$ is

$arclength = 2\pi r \frac{\theta}{360}$

where,

s be the length of the arc

r be the radius

$\theta$ be the angle.

Now,

For circle C

Taking r = 4

According to the problem,

$2 \pi r \frac{\theta}{360} = \frac{22 \pi}{9}$

or, $2r \frac{\theta}{360} = \frac{22}{9}$ [ eliminating $\theta$ from both side]

or, $\theta = \frac{(22)(360)}{(9)(2)(4)}$

or, $\theta = 110^\circ$

Again,

For circle R

Taking, r = 6 and $\theta = 110^\circ$ we get,

The length of arc QP is

$arc length = 2\pi (6)(\frac{110}{360} )$

or, $arclength = \frac{11 \pi}{3}$

Hence,

The length of QP is $\frac{11 \pi}{3}$ . Option C.
