Answer:
After 8 days, the stock lost 32 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
If 4 dollars fell every day for 8 days, it would be 32 dollars because 4*8 is 32.
Answer:
A. 0.9510
B. 0.0480
C. 0.0490
D. No, I would not feel comfortable accepting the shipment if one item was found defective, because the probability is quite small to obtain 1 or more defective items.
Answer:
It takes at least 7 months for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter than the original weight.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use exponential decay formula:
A = P (1-r)t
A = amount decreased to
P = original amount
r = rate of decrease
t = time
6 ≥ 12 (1-0.10)t divide both sides by 12
0.5 ≥ (0.9)t take log of both sides
log (0.5) ≥ log (0.9)t power rule of logs lets the exponent t drop to front of log to become a factor
log (0.5) ≥ t log(0.9) divide both sides by log(0.9) which is negative so reverse the inequality sign
log (0.5) / log (0.9) ≤ t use calculator
6.57 ≤ t
It takes at least 7 months for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter that original weight.
check:
12 (0.9)7≈ 5.73
12 (0.9)6 ≈ 6.37
