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.

The first time a census was taken in Esinville, the population was 12,621. Each year after that, the population was about 6% hig
Sedbober [7]
Step-by-step
Population was 12.621 when it was measured

Next year it rose by 6%, so add that 6% to 100% and multiply with population measured

12.621 × (100%+6%) = 12.621 × 106% = 13.379,24

Since a man cant be 0,24, we count that as +1

13.379,24 = 13.379 + 1 = 13.380

That was for a year after measurement, now let's calculate for another year
Now, add those 6% to a new population number

13.380 × (100%+6%) = 13.380 × 106% = 14.182,8

since 0,8 isn't a man, instead we add again +1

14.182,8 = 14.182 + 1 = 14.183

now let's do it for another year after last, by adding those 6% to a newest population number

14.183 × (100%+6%) = 14.183 × 106% = 15.033,98

round it again to +1, since 0.98 isn't a man

15.033,98 = 15.033 + 1 = 15.034

that is it, now graph is in the picture.

I don't know what the answer is to divide 180 in a ratio of 4:5:9
Karolina [17]
Hello there,

First you need to add together the numbers.
4+5+9 = 18
Divide the total by this,
180 / 18 = 10
Multiply each number by 10.
40:50:90.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying :)

Solve for T <br> Please Need Help
lara [203]

Answer:

T = \frac{6b+4}{R}

Step-by-step explanation:

B=\frac{RT-4}{6}

6B=RT-4  (times 6 on both sides)

6B+4=RT (add 4 to both sides)

\frac{6B+4}{R} = T  (divide R on both sides)

thus

T = \frac{6b+4}{R}
