Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The change represents the decay

The percentage rate of decrease is 6.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the exponential growth is y = a  , where

a is the initial value

r is the rate of increase in decimal ⇒ (1 + r) > 1

The formula of the exponential decay is y = a  , where

a is the initial value

r is the rate of decrease in decimal ⇒ (1 - r) < 1

Let us solve the question.

∵ y = 91

→ Compare it with the forms above

∴ a = 91

∵ The rate of change is 0.938

∵ 0.938 < 1

→ That means the rate of change is decreasing

∴ The function y = 91   represents exponential decay

∴ The change represents the decay

→ From the 2nd form above

∵ (1 - r ) = 0.938

→ Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ 1 - 1 - r = 0.938 - 1

∴ - r = - 0.062

→ Divide both sides by -1

∴ r = 0.062

→ Multiply it by 100% to change it to a percentage

∵ 0.062 × 100% = 6.2%

∴ r = 6.2%

∴ The percentage of decrease is 6.2%

thank you for hurrying here is the very last one Explain how you would find the perimeter of this triangle.
Lena [83]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the method of TOA CAH SOH.

tan(51.3) =  \frac{opp}{adj}  \\  \tan(51.3)  =  \frac{u}{4}  \\ u = 4 \tan(51.3)

cos(51.3)  =  \frac{adj}{hypo}  \\  \cos(51.3)  =  \frac{4}{v}  \\ v \cos(51.3)  = 4 \\ v =  \frac{4}{ \cos(51.3) }

Perimeter of triangle = Sum of all sides =

u \:  +  \: v + 4

Given the formula A = P(1 + )". compute A (rounded to two decimal places) if P = 10,000,7
Flura [38]

Answer:

A = 16010.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{k})^n

Put P = 10,000, r = 0.08, k = 2 and n = 12 in the above formula to find A.

A=10,000(1+\dfrac{0.08}{2})^{12}\\\\=10,000\times (1.04)^{12}\\\\=16,010.32

So, the value of A is 16010.32. Hence, the correct option is (B).

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

4sqrt(2) cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

4^2 + 4^2 = c^2

32 = c^2

sqrt(32) = c

c = 4sqrt(2)
