42 square ft because 4 times 3 is 12 and 10 times 3 is 30. 30+12=42
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The LCD here is 10.
Multiplying numerator and denominator of (4*10^2) by 10 results in:
40*10^3
-------------
10
and rewriting (2x10^-1) with positive exponent in the denominator results in:
2
---------
10
So, before simplification, this difference comes out to be:
40000 - 2 39998 19999
----------------- = ---------------- or ------------
10 10 5
Answer:
-Exponential Decay
-Decay factor is (1-0.05)
Step-by-step explanation:
-Given that the number decreases by a defined rate each year from the initial size by 5%,
-This is an exponential decay function of the form:

Where:
is the quantity/size after time t
is the initial size
is the rate of decay
-Our function can the be written as

Hence, the decay rate/factor is 0.05
#Alternatively
The exponential decay can be of the form:

Where:
y is the size at time x, a is the initial size, x is time and b is the decay factor.
b is of the form 

Hence, the decay factor is (1-0.05)
It could be either y = 12.75x or y = 13x. Check if you made a typing error because these rates are both better than B
