)

t

, half life of tablet is about

2

hours and after

t

=

hours , remaining drug on patient's system is

42.875

mg.

Step-by-step explanation: Initial drug

An algebra test contains 38 problems. Some of the problems are worth 2 points each. The rest of the questions are worth 3 points
Naily [24]

Let 'x' be the problems worth 2 points.

Let 'y' be the problems worth 3 points.

Since, there are 38 total problems.

So, x+y =38 (equation 1)

x = 38-y

Since, a perfect score is 100 points.

So, 2x+3y = 100 (equation 2)

Substituting the value of 'x', we get

2(38-y)+3y=100

76-2y+3y=100

76+y = 100

y = 24

x+y = 38

x = 38-24 = 14

So, 14 problems are worth 2 points and 24 problems are worth 3 points.

A newborn child receives a $20,000 gift toward college education from her grandparents. How much will the 20,000 be worth in 17
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The amount the $20.000 will be worth in 17  years at compound interest is $65068.443

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the Principal, P = $20,000.00

The annual interest rate, r = 7% = 0.07

Time , t = 17 years

Number of compounding period per year, m = quarterly = 4

The compound interest can be found from the following formula;

Amount, \ A = P \left (1 + \frac{1}{r}  \right )^{mt}

Therefore, by plugging the values of the equation parameters, we have;

Amount, \ A = 20000 \left (1 + \frac{0.07}{4}  \right )^{4 \times 17} = \$  65068.443

Therefore, the amount the $20.000 will be worth in 17  years at compound interest = $65068.443.
