Answer:
1. 1343 years
2. 9 hours
3. 39 years
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Given, half-life of carbon = 5730 years.
∴ λ = 0.693/half-life of carbon = 0.693/5730 = 0.000121
If N₀ = 100 then N = 85
Formula:- N = N₀*e^(-λt)
∴ 85 = 100 * e^(-0.000121t)
∴㏑(-0.85)=-0.000121t
∴ t = 1343 years
2. Given half-life of aspirin = 12 hours
λ = 0.693/12 = 0.5775
Also N₀ = 100 then 70 will disintegrate and N = 30 will remain disintegrated.
∴ 70 = 100 *e^(-0.05775t)
0.70 = e^(-0.05775t)
㏑(0.70) = -0.05775t
∴ t = 9 hours
3. The population of the birds as as A=A₀*e^(kt)
Given that the population of birds fell from 1400 from 1000, We are asked how much time it will take for the population to drop below 100, let that be x years.
The population is 1400 when f = 0, And it is 1000 when f = 5
We can write the following equation :
1400 = 1000e^(5t).
∴1400/1000 = e^(5k)
∴ k = ㏑(1.4)/5
We need to find x such that 1400/100 = e^(xk)
14 = e^(xk)
∴ x = 39 years
Answer:
Subtract 6,900 from 8,500 to get the highest number of tickets that can still be sold which is 1,600.
Answer:
y- intercept = - 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 25)
m = 
= 
= - 4.5 , then
y = - 4.5x + c
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the equation
Using (1, - 7), then
- 7 = - 4.5 + c ⇒ c = - 7 + 4.5 = - 2.5
y- intercept c = - 2.5
The other number is -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; First we develop formulae for the given information. A number is added with 3 and the resulting sum is multiplied by 4. This number is then divided by 2 and the quotient is 0. Assume the unknown number is x, then the given information is as follows
The quotient of 
is 0. So = 0.
Step 2; Now we solve the above equation. The denominator is taken to the RHS and the RHS remains zero.
= 0, 4(x+3)= 0, 4x+ 12 = 0, 4x = -12, x = 
= -3.
So the other number is -3.
1 inch = 13.5 feet
5 inches = 5 * 13.5 = 67.5 feet
