Given:

The initial mass of an element is 800 grams.

Decay rate = 8.2% per day

Number of days = 15

To find:

The remaining element after 15 days.

Solution:

The exponential decay model is

y=a(1-r)^t

Where, a is the initial value r is the rate of interest and t is time period.

Putting a=800,r=0.082,t=15 in the above formula, we get

y=800(1-0.082)^{15}

y=800(0.918)^{15}

y=221.68188

y\approx 221.7

Therefore, the mass of the remaining element is 221.7 grams.

Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. What is the measure of 1​
navik [9.2K]

Both lines are parallel so using the bottom line you are given angle 7 as being 80 degrees. Angle 5 and 7 form a straight line which is 180 degrees so angle 5 would be 180-80 = 100 degrees.

Angle 1 is the same as angle 5 so angle 1 is 100 degrees.

Answer: 100 degrees

Answer: A.4Runner cost more for $11.02

              B.Cost of fuel for Elentra: 3.75*3.59=$13.46

                 Cost of fuel for 4Runner : 6.818*3.59=$24.48

Step-by-step explanation:

A.Find how many gallons 4Runner spends on 150 mile trip.

use proportion

22:1=150:x

22x=150

x=150/22

x=6.818 gallons  

Cost of fuel for 4Runner : 6.818*3.59=$24.48

Calculation for Elentra:

40:1=150:x

40x=150

x=150/40

x=3.75 gallons

Cost of fuel for Elentra: 3.75*3.59=$13.46

Cost of fule for 4Runner-Cost of fuel for Elentra=24.48-13.46=$11.02

4Runner cost more for $11.02

B.Cost of fuel for Elentra: 3.75*3.59=$13.46

Cost of fuel for 4Runner : 6.818*3.59=$24.48
