A quantity with an initial value of 980 decays exponentially at a rate of 0.3% every 6 decades. What is the value of the quantity after 49 decades, to the nearest
hundredth?

Answers

Answer:

956.73

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3% = 0.003

1-0.003 = 0.997

49/6 = 8 r1 (use 8 because decay is not continuous)

0.997^8 = 0.97625...

0.97625... x 980 ≈ 956.73

42. Use the Quadratic Equation to find the Roots of x2 + 3x - 3=0

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of the x terms are {1, 3, -3}, so the discriminant, b^2 - 4ac, is 3^2 - 4(1)(-3), or 9 + 12, or 21.  The positive nature of the discriminant tells us that there are two real, unequal roots.  Following the quadratic formula, we get:

A triangular pyramid is formed from three right triangles as shown below.
Use the information given in the figure to find the length BD.
If applicable, round your answer to the nearest whole number.
The lengths on the figure are not drawn accurately.

Answers

ΔADC is a right angle triangle, we will use the Pythagorus Theorem to find the length CD.

Formula of the Pythagorus Theorem :  

⇒ a² + b² = c²

⇒ AD² + CD² = AC²

The value of AD is 54 and the value of AC is 90:

54² + CD² = 90²

Solve for CD:

54² + CD² = 90²

CD² = 90² - 54²

CD² = 5184

CD = √5184

CD = 72

ΔADC is also a right angle triangle, we will use the Pythagorus Theorem to find the length BD.

Formula of the Pythagorus Theorem :  

⇒ a² + b² = c²

⇒ BD² + CD² = BC²

The value of CD is 72 and the value of BC is 97:

BD² + 72² = 97²

Solve for BD:

BD² = 97² - 72²

BD² = 4225

BD = √4225

BD = 65

Answer: The length of BD is 65 units.

What is the geometric mean of 6 and 8?

Answers

Answer:

16 square root 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean of 6 and 8 is [tex]4\sqrt{3}[/tex]

What is geometric mean?

The geometric mean of two numbers [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]x_2[/tex] is given by the formula:

[tex]GM = \sqrt{x_1 \times \ x_2}[/tex]

The two given numbers are 6 and 8

That is, [tex]x_1=6[/tex] and [tex]x_2=8[/tex]

Substitute  [tex]x_1=6[/tex] and [tex]x_2=8[/tex] into the formula [tex]GM = \sqrt{x_1 \times \ x_2}[/tex]

[tex]GM=\sqrt{6 \times 8}[/tex]

Simplifying further:

[tex]GM=\sqrt{48} \\\\GM=4\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the geometric mean of 6 and 8 is [tex]4\sqrt{3}[/tex]

r = R/100

r = 8.4/100

Then solve the equation for A

[tex] A = P(1 + \frac{r} {n})^{nt} \\\\ A = 10,000.00(1 + \frac{0.084}{12})^{(12)(30)} \\\\ A = 10,000.00(1 + 0.007)^{(360)} \\\\ A = \$ 123,199.63[/tex]

7) The ratio of lipsticks to eye shadow in my makeup bag is 1:9. The ratio of eye shadow to mascara is 3:2. Given that I have 3 more eye shadows than mascaras, how many lipsticks do I have?

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have 1 lipstick, then you have 9 eye shadows, at the same time, if you have 3 eye shadows, you have 2 mascaras. Since it's stated from the first part that you have 9 eye shadows, then going by the ratio, you must have 6 mascaras.

Final part says if there are 3 more eye shadows than mascaras, how many lipsticks have you.

This is quite straightforward, because from the relation I've established up ahead, we have 9 eye shadows and 6 mascaras. And 9 is 3 more than 6. Essentially, this means that the number of lipsticks will remain 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

Remember the angles in a triangle add up to equal 180

So if we want to find a missing angle we subtract the given angles ( in this case 65 and 56) from 180

So missing angle = 180 - 65 - 56

180 - 65 = 115

115 - 56 = 59

So we can conclude that the missing angle has a measure of 59 degrees

b. Solve the system to find the price of one can of soup and the price of one loaf of bread.

Answers

Answer:

a) For Khalil's purchase

For Ronda's purchase

8x + y = 12.89......Equation 2

b) A can of soup = x = $2.09

Loaf of bread = y = $1.35

Step-by-step explanation:

A grocery store is offering a sale on bread and soup. Khalil buys four cans of soup and three

loaves of bread for $11.67. Ronda buys eight cans of soup and one loaf of bread for $12.89.

Homework Help!

Let us represent:

a can of soup = x

Loaf of bread = y

a. Write equations for both Khalil's and Ronda's purchases.

For Khalil's purchase

= Khalil buys four cans of soup and three loaves of bread for $11.67.

4x + 3y = 11.67.....Equation 1

Ronda buys eight cans of soup and one loaf of bread for $12.89.

8x + y = 12.89......Equation 2

b. Solve the system to find the price of one can of soup and the price of one loaf of bread.

We have:

4x + 3y = 11.67.....Equation 1

8x + y = 12.89......Equation 2

y = 12.89 - 8x

We substitute 12.89 - 8x for y in Equation 1

4x + 3(12.89 - 8x) = 11.67

4x + 38.67 - 24x = 11.67

38.67 - 11.67 = 24x - 4x

27 = 20x

x = 27/20

x = 1.35

y = 12.89 - 8x

y = 12.89 - 8 × 1.35

y = 12.89 - 10.8

y = 2.09

Therefore,

Solving for y

a can of soup = x = $2.09

Loaf of bread = y = $1.35
