Answer:

  f(1) = 173 = the amount remaining after 1 year

Step-by-step explanation:

The function definition tells you f(x) is the amount of the isotope remaining after x years. Then ...

  f(1) = 173 = the amount remaining after 1 year

__

(no units are given, so we don't know if that is 173 nanograms, or 173 truck loads)

What is the measure of each exterior angle in a regular 10-sided polygon?
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Option D. 36°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon must be equal to 360 degrees

In a regular polygon all the exterior angles are congruent

so

To obtain the measure of each exterior angle divide 360 by the number of sides

In this problem the number of sides is 10

360/10=36°

Select all the expressions that are equivalent to -2(4-3x)+(5x-2)
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

2. 11x - 10

3. -8 + 11x - 2

5. -8 + 6x + 5x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equivalent expressions, find the solution to the expression -2(4 - 3x) + (5x - 2). All expressions that are within the solving process <u>or</u> have the same solution are equal to the given expression.

-2(4 - 3x) + (5x - 2)

-2(4 - 3x) + 5x - 2

-8 + 6x + 5x - 2

-8 + 11x - 2

11x - 10

In this case, the equivalent expressions were within the solving process. From this, we can see that the equivalent expressions are 11x - 10, -8 + 11x - 2, and -8 + 6x + 5x - 2. Aka choices 2, 3, and 5.

hope this helps!

In a large sample of customer accounts, a utility company determined that the average number of days between when a bill was sen
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Approximately 95% of the numbers of days will be between 26 and 58.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Mean, μ = 42

Standard Deviation, σ = 8

We are given that the distribution of average number of days between a bill is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Empirical Formula:

  • According to Empirical formula almost all the data lies within three standard deviation of man for a normal distribution.
  • Almost 68% of data lies within 1 standard deviation of mean.
  • Almost 95% of data lies within two standard deviation of mean.
  • Almost 99.7% of data lies within three standard deviation of mean.

Thus, by Empirical formula 95% of data lies within two standard deviation.

\mu \pm 2(\sigma) \\=42 \pm 2(8)\\=42 \pm 16\\=(26, 58)

Thus, approximately 95% of the numbers of days will be between 26 and 58.
