As the only prime factor of denominator is
2
, in fact there are three twos (
2
×
2
×
2
) we can can convert the fraction
7
8
by multiplying numerator and denominator by
5
×

.
Hence,

(This is always possible if only prime factors of denominator are
2
's and
5
's - just multiply by as many
5

Please Help Asap. Very Hard.
Genrish500 [490]

According to the plot, when t=0,

y_1(0)=a_1\sin0=0

y_2(0)=a_2\cos0=a_2

a_1 and a_2 are the amplitudes of the waves y_1 and y_2, respectively. From the plot it's clear that both a_1 and a_2 are positive, but the maximum value of y_2 is evidently smaller than the maximum value of y_1. So 0, making the answer B.

The following function describes the number of employees working at a company, In thousands, where trepresents the number of yea
NISA [10]

Consider the missing part of the question is "Select the correct statement.

A. The number of employees is increasing by 50% every year.

B. The number of employees is decreasing by 10% every year.

C. The number of employees is decreasing by 90% every year.

D. The number of employees is increasing by 90% every year."

Given:

The function is:

f(t)=1.5(0.90)^t

Where, f(t) is the number of employees working at a company, in thousands and t is the number of years since the company revised the benefits package.

To find:

The correct statement from the given options.

Solution:

The general exponential decay model is:

f(t)=a(1-r)^t         ...(i)

Where, a is the initial value, r is the rate of decay and t is the number of years.

We have,

f(t)=1.5(0.90)^t

It can be written as

f(t)=1.5(1-0.10)^t        ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

a=1.5,r=0.10

The initial value is 1.5 and the rate of decay is 0.10 or 10%. It means the number of employees is decreasing by 10% every year.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
