One way to test this is by using the equation for Ken on Maureen. Let's say in the first hour,
f(t) = 200(0.976)^1 = 195.2 mg
In the second hour,
f(t) = 200(0.976)^2 = 190.52 mg
In the third hour,
f(t) = 200(0.976)^3 = 186 mg
If you compare this with Maureen's data which is 150, 90 and 54 for the first, second and third hour, respectively, you will see that Maureen's rate is much faster. However, you cannot tell by what factor because the function is exponential, not a multiple. There is no constant difference between their rates. Therefore, we only know that Maureen's rate is much faster.
The answer is <span>Maureen's body eliminated the antibiotic faster than Ken's body.</span>
Answer:
40 girls
Step By Step Explanation:
assume boys = y girls = x
y = 1/2x + 10
y = 30
30 = 1/2x + 10
1/2x = 20
x = 20 *2 = 40
girls is 40 boys is 30
From what I got there is one real solution :)
Rearrange the second equation to give y=2-2x, substitute into the first equation to give you a value for x and then using that you can work out y for the exact coordinates of intersection :)
Also they are both straight line graphs so they will either have one or no solutions
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x + 4)° + (x - 2)° + (3x + 7)° = 180°
(5x + x + 3x)° + (4 - 2 + 7)° = 180°
9x° + 9° = 180° → ÷9
x + 1 = 20
x = 20 - 1
x = 19
