Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

38 pounds = $304

Delivery charge = $38

Last month order

38 + 38x = 304

38x = 304 - 38

38x = 266

x = 266/38

x = $7 per pounds

This months

38 + 7(50)

= 38 + 350

= $388

Suppose after 2500 years an initial amount of 1000 grams of a radioactive substance has decayed to 75 grams. What is the half-li
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Between 600 and 700 years (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

At a constant decay rate, the half-life of a radioactive substance is the time taken for the substance to decay to half of its original mass. The formula for radioactive exponential decay is given by:

A(t) = A_0 e^{(kt)}\\where:\\A(t) = Amount\ left\ at\ time\ (t) = 75\ grams\\A_0 = initial\ amount = 1000\ grams\\k = decay\ constant\\t = time\ of\ decay = 2500\ years

First, let us calculate the decay constant (k)

75 = 1000 e^{(k2500)}\\dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 1000\\0.075 = e^{(2500k)}\\taking\ natural\ logarithm\ of\ both\ sides\\In 0.075 = In (e^{2500k})\\In 0.075 = 2500k\\k = \frac{In0.075}{2500}\\ k = \frac{-2.5903}{2500} \\k = - 0.001036

Next, let us calculate the half-life as follows:

\frac{1}{2} A_0 = A_0 e^{(-0.001036t)}\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ A_0\\ \frac{1}{2} = e^{-0.001036t}\\taking\ natural\ logarithm\ of\ both\ sides\\In(0.5) = In (e^{-0.001036t})\\-0.6931 = -0.001036t\\t = \frac{-0.6931}{-0.001036} \\t = 669.02 years\\\therefore t\frac{1}{2}  \approx 669\ years

Therefore the half-life is between 600 and 700 years

alfredo bought a fishing pole for 60 off it's original price of $97 if the tax was 4% how much did alfredo pay for the fishing p
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$40.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The regular price of the fishing rod is $97

There is a 60% discount from that price.

The discount is equal to 60% of $97 which is equal to .60 * $97 which is equal to $58.2

Discount is like a markdown, so subtract $58.2 from the price of the item before the change to get $97 - $58.2 = $38.8 

This is the price of the item before tax is applied.

Now you apply the sales tax of 4%.

4% of $38.8 is equal to .04 * $38.8 which is equal to $1.552

Tax is like a markup, so add $1.552 to the price of the item before tax was applied to get a selling price of $38.8 + $1.552 which is equal to $40.352

Round it up and the answer is $40.4

You have a bag full of apples. There are 12 Jonathan (red), 6 Granny Smith (green), and 3 Golden Delicious (yellow) apples in th
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The total number of apples is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Number of green apples = 4

P ( that all three apples are green)

= (limit 4 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 4! / 3!(4−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 1 / 170

= 0.005

(b)

Number of red apples = 8

P(that all three apple are green)

=(limit 8 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 8! / 3!(8−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 7 / 85

= 0.082

Now,

P(that no three apple is red)= 1−0.082 = 0.918

c)

P(of selecting 4 apple that contain at least 2 red apples)

= (limit 8 and 2) /( limit 17 and 2) X (2/15) + (limit 8 and 3) /(limit 17 / 3) X (1/14)

= (7/34) × (2/15) + (7/85) × (1/14)

= 0.027 + 0.058

= 0.085

d)

P(that the second apple selected is yellow given that the first apple is red)

= (limit 5 and 1) / ( limit 16 and 1)

= 5! / 1!(5−1)!

= 16! / 1!(16−1)!

= 5 /16

= 0.3125
