Step-by-step explanation:

6k + 12 + 9=9

6k + 12 = 9 - 9

6k + 12 = 0

12 = -6k

12/-6 = -6k/-6

2/-1 = k

k = -2

Answer:

k=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

6k+12+9=9

subtract 9 from both sides

6k+12=0

subtract 12 from not sides

6k= -12

divide both sides by 6 (isolating the variable)

k= -12/6

simplify

k= -2

The concentration of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT - an infamous pesticide) in Lake Michigan has been declining exponenti

mojhsa [17]

Answer: A) $y=13e^{-0.1359t}$

B) H = 5.10

C) Yes

Step-by-step explanation: Exponential Decay function is a model that describes the reducing of an amount by a constant rate over time. Generally, it is written in the form: $y(t)=Ce^{rt}$

A) C is initial quantity, in this case, the initial concentration of DDT. To determine r, using the data given:

$y(t)=Ce^{rt}$

$2.22=13e^{13r}$

$e^{13r}=0.1708$

Using a natural logarithm property called power rule:

$13r=ln(0.1708)$

$r=\frac{ln(0.1708)}{13}$

$r=-0.1359$

The decay function for concentration of DDT through the years is $y(t)=13e^{-0.1359t}$

B) The value of H is calculated by $y=C(0.5)^{\frac{t}{H} }$

$2.22=13(0.5)^{\frac{13}{H} }$

$(0.5)^{\frac{13}{H} }=0.1708$

Again, using power rule for logarithm:

$\frac{13}{H} log(0.5)=log(0.1708)$

$\frac{13}{H} =\frac{log(0.1708)}{log(0.5)}$

$\frac{13}{H} =2.55$

H = 5.10

Constant H in the half-life formula is H=5.10

C) Using model $y(t)=13e^{-0.1359t}$ to determine concentration of DDT in 1995:

$y(24)=13e^{-0.1359.24}$

y(24) = 0.5

By 1995, the concentration of DDT is 0.5 ppm, so using this model is possible to reduce such amount and more of DDT.

12 1/3 x 4 simplify all fractions. Write all improper fractions as mixed numbers.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

12 1/3 x 4 after simplification is 49 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simply the fraction

12 1/3 * 4

Converting mixed fraction into improper fraction

37/3*4

Multiplying 4 with 37

148/3

Converting it into mixed fraction

49 1/3

12 1/3 x 4 after simplification is 49 1/3
