D is the correct answer according to my calculations so try D first
Step-by-step explanation:
P(t) = 12,000 (2)^(-t/15)
9,000 = 12,000 (2)^(-t/15)
0.75 = 2^(-t/15)
ln(0.75) = ln(2^(-t/15))
ln(0.75) = (-t/15) ln(2)
-15 ln(0.75) / ln(2) = t
t = 6.23
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Option B cost less at 120 miles driven
The cost difference at 120 miles between option A and option B is $15
(b) Option A and B cost the same at driving 60 miles.
Option B would cost more if you drive less than 60 miles.
Answer:
Molly's estimation was approximately correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Diameter of bike tire = 2 feet
Also Given:
She estimated that for every turn of the tire, the bike traveled about 6 feet.
Estimated Distance traveled = 6 feet
We need to find that whether her estimation reasonable.
Solution:
Now we know that Distance traveled is equal to Circumference of tire.
Since Tire is in circular shape.
We can say that;
Circumference of the tire will be π times diameter.
framing in equation form we get;
Circumference of the tire = 
Now The actual distance traveled is 6.28 feet and Molly estimated as 6 feet.
Hence we can say that Molly's estimation was approximately correct.
