A 8 gram sample of a substance that's a by-product of fireworks has a k-value of 0.101.
Find the substance's half-life, in days. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

A 8 gram sample of a substance that's a by-product of fireworks has a k-value of 0.101. The half-life is 2.98 days.

What is the formula for half-life?

Exponential decay obeys the equation

[tex]m(t) = m_0 e^{-kt}[/tex]

where t = time, days

Given:

Initial mass, m₀ = 8 g

Decay constant, k = 0.101

For half-life, the mass is m = m₀/2.

Therefore,

[tex]m(t) = m_0 e^{-kt}[/tex]

e^{-0.101t} = 1/2

-0.101t = ln 0.5

t = ln 0.5/-0.101

t = 2.98

Therefore, The half-life is 2.98 days.

Polygon ABCD is plotted on a coordinate plane and then rotated 90° clockwise about point C to form polygon A′B′C′D′. Match each vertex of polygon A′B′C′D′ to its coordinates.

Graph of rigid functions on a coordinate plane. A quadrilateral vertices are plotted at A (4, 6), B (5, 3), C (4, 2), and D (1, 2) in quadrant 1. Interior are of quadrilateral is shaded.

Answers

The vertices of ABCD after 90 degrees clockwise rotation about point C are: A' (0,6), B' (3,7), C' (4,6) and D' (4,3)

How to match the vertices of the polygon?

The image of the polygon ABCD is not given; however, the question can still be answered because the coordinates are known.

The vertices of polygon ABCD are given as:

A = (4, 6)

B = (5, 3)

C = (4, 2)

D = (1, 2)

The rule of rotation about point C is:

(x,y) = (a + b - y, x + b - a)

Where:

(a, b) = (4, 2) --- the point of rotation.

So, we have:

(x,y) = (4 + 2 - y, x + 4 - 2)

(x,y) = (6 - y, x + 2)

The above means that:

A' = (6 - 6, 4 + 2) = (0,6)

B' = (6 - 3, 5 + 2) = (3,7)

C' = (6 - 2, 4 + 2) = (4,6)

D' = (6 - 2, 1 + 2) = (4,3)

Hence, the image of the rotation and their vertices (i.e. coordinates) are:

A' = (0,6)

B' =  (3,7)

C' = (4,6)

D' =  (4,3)

I got the other numbers to the other side.

70D + 6 - 9D = 35 + 4D - 20.

A family plan for a cell phone has a monthly base price of $75 plus $10.99 for each additional family member added beyond the primary account holder. The linear function to model the monthly cost C(x) (in $) of a family for x additional family members added is C(x)=

Answers

The linear equation that models the cost for having x additional family members added is:

c(x) = $75 + $10.99*x

How to get the linear equation?

Here we know that the plan has a fixed price of $75 plus $10.99 for each family member added beyond the primary account holder.

Then if there are x family members added, the cost will be:

$75 + $10.99*x

Then the linear equation that models the cost for having x additional family members added is:

c(x) = $75 + $10.99*x

Answers

i think its 9 7/8… dont quote me fr but i feel like this is the answer cause if you add 2 5/8+9 7/8 it equals 12 1/2

The liters of smoothies sold is 9 7/8 liters.

What is an Equation?

An equation is a statement formed when two algebraic expressions are equated by an equal sign.

The volunteer prepares 12 1/2 = 25/2 liters of smoothies

The remaining amount of smoothies is 2 5/8 = 21/8 liters of smoothies

Let the amount of smoothies sold is x liters

Then the equation formed to determine the value of x is

x = (25/2) - (21/8)

x = 79/8

x = 9 7/8 liters

Therefore, the liters of smoothies sold is 9 7/8 liters.

We will see that f'(x) > 0, which means that f(x) is an increasing function.

How to prove that the function is increasing?

For any function f(x), if f'(x) > 0, then f(x) is increasing for any value of x.

Here we have the cubic function:

f(x) = x³ + 4x

If we differentiate this, we get:

f'(x) = df(x)/dx = 3x² + 4.

Find the value of x and y​

Answers

Answer:

x = 1

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(pi) = -1

so many ways :

sqrt(0.5/2) = sqrt(0.5/2 × 8/8) = sqrt(4/16)

= sqrt(0.5/2 × 18/18) = sqrt(9/36)

= sqrt(1/4) = 1/2

"nicest" approach (all integers) :

3x² = sqrt(9)

3x² = 3

x² = 3/3 = 1

x = 1

2y = sqrt(36)

2y = 6

y = 6/2 = 3

one of them has to be negative (because cos(pi) = -1), so it has to be y, because 3x² cannot be negative with real numbers.

so, y = -3

-1 × 3×1²/(2×-3) = sqrt(0.5/2) = 1/2

-1 × 3/-6 = 1/2

3/6 = 1/2

1/2 = 1/2

Answers

The first term of an arithmetic progression of 4 terms and ratio equal to 4 whose sum is 100 is 19.

How to calculate arithmetic progression?

The first term of an arithmetic progression can be calculated using the following expression:

Where;

a = first termUn = sumn = no of termsd = common ratio

100 = 2 [2a + (4 - 1)4]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you roll an even number it doesn't just get rid of the number off the cube, it still exists

Events A and B are independent.

These events have no outcomes in common,

Option C is the correct answer.

What is probability?

It is the chance of an event to occur from a total number of outcomes.

The formula for probability is given as:

Probability = Number of required events / Total number of outcomes.

Example:

The probability of getting a head in tossing a coin.

P(H) = 1/2

We have,

Events A and B are independent because the outcome of one event does not affect the probability of the other event.

The fact that 6 is an even number is not relevant to the independence of the events.

Event A is the event of rolling an even number on the first cube, which has three even and three odd numbers.

Event B is the event of rolling a 6 on the second cube, which has one 6 and five non-6 numbers.

These events have no outcomes in common, and the outcome of the first roll does not affect the outcome of the second roll.

Therefore,

Events A and B are independent.
