Answer:

$57.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you want to do is convert 24% to a decimal. To do this you just need to take the current decimal place and move it 2 places to the left. Since this percentage is a whole number the decimal is just after the 4.

(0.24)

Multiply that decimal by the number you want to find the percentage of

$240 * .24 = $57.60

$240 is the 100%
X Is the 24%
So (24x240)/100
5760/100 = $57.60
Or you can just do 240x0.24=$57.60
24% is the same as 0.24
And 100% is the same as 1

Iodine-125 has a half-life of about 60 days.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Since it has a half life of 60 days, this means that every 60 days it multiplies by 0.5. Since it asks for 300 days, your equation is 500*(0.5)^5, which is 15.625 mg left after 300 days.

Which statement describes the function y=ax^n when a=1 and n is odd?

julsineya [31]

ANSWER

B. The graph is symmetric about the origin

EXPLANATION.

The given function is

$y = a {x}^{n}$

When a=1,

$y = {x}^{n}$

Let,

$f(x)= {x}^{n}$

$f(-x)= {( - x)}^{n}$

Since n is odd,

$f(-x)=-{( x)}^{n}$

$\Rightarrow f(-x)=-f(x)$

This implies that, the function

$y={x}^{n}$

is symmetric with respect to origin.

The correct answer is B
