Answer:

6967 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the exponential function :

R=100e−0.00043t

Time = t in years

R = final amount

Number of years in which only 5 grams of radium will be present :

R = 5

Plugging into our formula :

5 = 100 * e^−0.00043t

5 / 100 = e^−0.00043t

0.05 = e^−0.00043t

Take the In of both sides

−2.995732 = - 0.00043t

t = −2.995732 / - 0.00043t

t = 6966.819

t = 6966.819 years

t = about 6967 years

Kayla is going to tile a 6 foot by 9 foot rectangular section of her bathroom wall with square tiles that measure 3 inches tall
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer: 864 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Rather than calculating the whole area of bathroom and area of one tile, It is quicker and easier to determine how many rows of tiles that will be needed.

Note that 1 feet = 12 inches

Each tile measures 3 inches on each side.

Length: 9 feet = 9 × 12 = 108 inches

Therefore, 108/3 = 36 tiles will fit along the length.

Width: 6 feet = 6 × 12 = 72 inches. Therefore, 72/3 = 24 tiles will fit along the width.

So, (36 × 24) = 864 tiles will be needed.

How would I solve <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20x-%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B3%7D%20%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%
sdas [7]
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12. Move the variables to the left-hand side and change its sign. Move the constant to the left-hand side and change its sign. Collect like terms. Add the numbers. Divide both sides of the equation by 12.

1/2 x - 5= - 1/2 x + 19/4
6x -20= - 6x + 57
6x + 6x= 57 + 20
12x= 57 + 20
12x= 77
ANSWER
x = 77/12

x = 6 5/12, x= 6.416
