Option B:
Solution:
Take LCM of the denominators and Make the denominators same.
LCM of 16, 320, 1 = 320
All the denominators are same, so you can write in one fraction.
Do cross multiplication.
Add 9280 on both sides of the equation.
Subtract 20x on both sides of the equation.
Let y = f(x).
Hence Option B is the correct answer.
Answer:
The weight of the block of ice after 1 day is of 4.81 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation for exponential decay:
The equation that models an amount after t hours, subject to exponential decay, is given by:
In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
A 10-pound block of ice melts at a rate of 3% per hour.
This means that
So
Find the weight of the block of ice after 1 day.
One day has 24 hours, so this is A(24).
The weight of the block of ice after 1 day is of 4.81 pounds.
