Answer:

  50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the given numbers into the given formula and do the arithmetic.

  q = q0(2^(-t/k))

  q = (87 kg)(2^(-20/25)) = (87 kg)(0.574349)

  q ≈ 50 kg

The amount remaining after 20 years is about 50 kg.

Keisha solved the following equation: 4x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) Step Work Justification 1 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) Combine like terms 2 2x
kolbaska11 [484]

4x - 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)   Given

(4x - 2x) + 8 = 6(x + 4)

2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)     Combine like terms

2x + 8 = (6)(x) + (6)(4)

2x + 8 = 6x + 24    Distributive Property

2x - 6x + 8 = 6x - 6x + 24

-4x + 8 = 24      Subtraction Property of Equality

-4x + 8 - 8 = 24 - 8

-4x = 16    Subtraction Property of Equality

-4x : (-4) = 16 : (-4)

x = -4       Division Property of Equality

(x+y=3<br> (3x+2y=14<br> what is the coordinates for this problem
Ludmilka [50]


<span>3x - 2y + 2y > -14 + 2y </span>

<span>3x + 0 > -14 + 2y </span>

<span>3x > -14 + 2y </span>

<span>3x + 14 > -14 + 14 + 2y </span>

<span>3x + 14 > 0 + 2y </span>

<span>3x + 14 > 2y </span>

<span>(3x + 14)/2 > 2y/2 </span>

<span>(3x + 14)/2 > y*(2/2) </span>

<span>(3x + 14)/2 > y*(1) </span>

<span>(3x + 14)/2 > y </span>

<span>y < (3x + 14)/2 </span>

<span>y < 3x/2 + 14/2 </span>

<span>y < 3x/2 + 7 </span>

<span>y < (3/2)*x + 7 </span>

<span>“y” is LESS THAN (3/2)*x + 7 </span>

<span>the slope intercept form of the inequality is: y < (3/2)*x + 7 </span>


<span>STEP 2: Temporarily change the inequality into an equation by replacing the < symbol with an = symbol. </span>

<span>y < (3/2)*x + 7 </span>

<span>y = (3/2)*x + 7 </span>


<span>STEP 3: Prepare the x-y table using the equation from Step 2. </span>

<span>Using the slope intercept form of the equation from Step 2, choose a value for x, and then compute y for at least three points. </span>

<span>Although you could plot the graph with just two sets of x-y coordinates, you should compute at least three different sets of coordinates points to ensure you have not made a mistake. All three x-y coordinates must lie on the same straight line. If they do not, you have made a mistake. </span>

<span>You can choose any value for x. </span>


<span>For example, (arbitrarily) choose x = -2 </span>

<span>If x = -2, </span>

<span>y = (3/2)*x + 7 </span>

<span>y = (3/2)*(-2) + 7 </span>

<span>y = 4 </span>

Yu and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon. Yu
Mumz [18]

Given: Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon  Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon. Nailah bought 5 pieces of ribbon. Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon.

To find: Who can buy which ribbon

Solution:

Ribbon Sizes

1 2/3 = 5/3  yard

4/5  yard

3 1/2  = 7/2 Yard

Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon

Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon

=> 3 * 5/3  = 5

  3 * 4/5  = 2.4

  3 * 7/2   = 10.5

Nailah  bought 5 pieces of ribbon

=> 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

   5 * 4/5  =  4

   5 * 7 /2   = 17.5

Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon

=> 6 * 5/3  = 10

  6 * 4/5  = 4.8

  6 * 7 /2   = 21

Only value between 7 & 9 is 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

hence Nailah only can buy 1 2/3 = 5/3  yard ribbon

or there is some mistake in the data
