After 500 years one would have N nuclei of the original substance.

N = 100 * exp ( -ln(4) ) = 25

LOL.

I guess it is exp( - lamda * t)

Lamda, the decay constant is the ln(2) over the half life.

So we get exp( -ln(2)/250 * 500) or exp ( -ln(4) )

In 2004 the population in Morganton, Georgia, was 43,000. The population in Morganton doubled by 2010. If the growth rate remain
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

263,606.9

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2004 the population in Morganton, Georgia, was 43,000.

(0, 43000)

The population in Morganton doubled by 2010

In 6 years the population is doubled (86000)

(6,86000)

A= a(b)^t

Use (0,43000) in the above equation

A= a(b)^t\\43000= a(b)^0\\a=43000

Now plug in (6,86000)

A= a(b)^t\\A= 43000(b)^t\\86000=43000(b)^6\\2=b^6\\b=\sqrt[6]{2} \\b=1.12

A=43000(1.12)^t

Now find out A when t=16 (2020)

A=43000(1.12)^t\\A=43000(1.12)^{16}\\A=263606.9

Which equation models this problem?
Furkat [3]
So unit price times #of cloths=final price

unit price times 9=36.90
so 9x=36.90
divide both sides by 9
x=4.10

so D is the right answer

When working with mean, what steps do you do to find the mean?
Temka [501]
The mean is the average...to find the mean, add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.

Example :
ur set of numbers : 1,2,3,4
add up all the numbers and divide by how many there are :
(1 + 2 + 3 + 4) / 4 = 10/4 = 2.5...so 2.5 is ur mean (average)

Frank has a jar filled with 200 old dimes. Suppose he selects a dime from the jar without looking. There is a 20% chance that he
a_sh-v [17]

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jar contains 200 old dimes

Chances to pick the 1960s is 20% i.e. 1960s is 20% of 200 old dimes

So, we can write

\Rightarrow \text{No of 1960s is }=20\%\ \text{of}\ 200=0.2\times 200\\\Rightarrow \text{No of 1960s is }=40
