Element X decays radioactively with a half life of 9 minutes. If there are 890 grams of Element X, how long, to the nearest tent

h of a minute, would it take the element to decay to 238 grams?

Answer:

13.18651685

13.9

Explain:

890-238=652
652/890=0.7325842697 (Find out the percentage)

We know that 1 gram of Element X will be fully decayed in 18 minutes and half of it in 9 minutes.

0.7325842697x18=13.18651685

As you see 18/13.18651685 will equal to 18 (not exactly since it is rounded)

And of course we need to round it to nearest tenth. So the answer would be 13.9!

(secx)dy/dx=e^(y+sinx), please help me solve the differential equation. Thanks :)
nalin [4]
First, you must know these formula  d(e^f(x) = f'(x)e^x dx, e^a+b=e^a.e^b, and d(sinx) = cosxdx, secx = 1/ cosx

(secx)dy/dx=e^(y+sinx), implies  <span>dy/dx=cosx .e^(y+sinx), and then 
</span>dy=cosx .e^(y+sinx).dx, integdy=integ(cosx .e^(y+sinx).dx, equivalent of 
integdy=integ(cosx .e^y.e^sinx)dx, integdy=e^y.integ.(cosx e^sinx)dx, but we know that   d(e^sinx) =cosx e^sinx dx,
so integ.d(e^sinx) =integ.cosx e^sinx dx,
and e^sinx + C=integ.cosx e^sinxdx
 finally, integdy=e^y.integ.(cosx e^sinx)dx=e^2. (e^sinx) +C
the answer is 
y = e^2. (e^sinx) +C, you can check this answer to calculate dy/dx

The equation for the cost in dollars of producing automobile tires is c = 0.000015x2 - 0.03x + 35, where x is the number of tire
statuscvo [17]
The cost function is
c = 0.000015x² - 0.03x + 35
where x = number of tires.

To find the value of x that minimizes cost, the derivative of c with respect to x should be zero. Therefore
0.000015*2x - 0.03 = 0
0.00003x = 0.03
x = 1000

Note:
The second derivative of c with respect to x is positive (= 0.00003), so the value for x will yield the minimum value.

The minimum cost is
Cmin = 0.000015*1000² - 0.03*1000 + 35
          = 20

Answer:
Number of tires = 1000
Minimum cost = 20
