What equation would you use to solve for x?

The variable z is directly proportional to x, and inversely proportional to y. When x is 4 and y is 13, z has the value 1.230769

Talja [164]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2307692307692.

The first step is to find the proportionality constant.

The formula is

z = kx/y

1.2307692307692 = k * 4/13 Multiply both sides by 13

1.2307692307692 * 13 = 4k

16 = 4*k Divide by 4

k = 16/4

k = 4

=================================

z = k*x/y

x = 9

y = 20

k = 4

z = 4 *9/20

z = 36/20

z = 1.8

The probability that a new advertising campaign will increase sales is assessed as being 0.80. The probability that the cost of

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The probability that the cost is kept within budget or the campaign will increase sales is 0.88

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the cost is kept within budget (event A) or the campaign will increase sales (event B) is the union of the probability of those two events. By basic properties of probability, this is:

P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P (B) - P(A ∩ B)

and for independent events:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)

So:

P(A ∪ B) = 0.80 + 0.40 - (0.80*0.40) = 1.20 - 0.32 = 0.88

Chase consumes an energy drink that contains caffeine. After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Chase's body

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

(a) The 5-hour decay factor is 0.5042.

(b) The 1-hour decay factor is 0.8720.

(c) The amount of caffeine in Chase's body 2.39 hours after consuming the drink is 149.112 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of caffeine in Chase's body decreases exponentially.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine is 0.2542.

The 1-hour decay factor is:

$1-hour\ decay\ factor=(0.2542)^{1/10}=0.8720$

(a)

Compute the 5-hour decay factor as follows:

$5-hour\ decay\ factor=(0.8720)^{5}\\=0.504176\\\approx0.5042$

Thus, the 5-hour decay factor is 0.5042.

(b)

The 1-hour decay factor is:

$1-hour\ decay\ factor=(0.2542)^{1/10}=0.8720$

Thus, the 1-hour decay factor is 0.8720.

(c)

The equation to compute the amount of caffeine in Chase's body is:

A = Initial amount × (0.8720)ⁿ

It is provided that initially Chase had 171 mg of caffeine, 1.39 hours after consuming the drink.

Compute the amount of caffeine in Chase's body 2.39 hours after consuming the drink as follows:

$A = Initial\ amount \times (0.8720)^{2.39} \\=[Initial\ amount \times (0.8720)^{1.39}] \times(0.8720)\\=171\times 0.8720\\=149.112$

Thus, the amount of caffeine in Chase's body 2.39 hours after consuming the drink is 149.112 mg.
