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

Where, a is the initial value r is the rate of interest and t is time period.
Putting
in the above formula, we get




Therefore, the mass of the remaining element is 221.7 grams.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
2 consecutive integers represented as variables:
x, x + 1
Greater one: x + 1
Lesser one: x
Write as an equation
2(Greater) + 13 = 3(Lesser)
Substitute in known values
2(x + 1) + 13 = 3(x)
Multiply
2x + 2 + 13 = 3x
Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation
2 + 13 = x
Add 2 + 13 to simplify
x = 15
Lesser = x = 15
Greater = x + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16

Hope this helps :)
Answer:x=17
Step-by-step explanation:
Set 6x+5+5x-12 equal to 180
Simplify into 11x-7=180
Add 7 to both sides to get 11x=187
Divide both sides by 11 to get x=17
