Answer:
a) [tex]S(t) = 42(0.9995)^t[/tex]
b) It will take 10,692 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential function to determine the amount of substance:
An exponential function to determine the amout of substance after t years is given by:
[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]
In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
(a) Write an equation to determine the amount of substance, S, left after t years.
Half-life of 1300 years means that [tex]A(1300) = 0.5A(0)[/tex].
We use this to find r. So
[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]
[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)(1-r)^{1300}[/tex]
[tex](1-r)^{1300} = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt[1300]{(1-r)^{1300}} = \sqrt[1300]{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]1 - r = 0.9995[/tex]
[tex]r = 0.0005[/tex]
Sample of 42 grams means that [tex]A(0) = 42[/tex]. So
[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]
Replacing A by S, just for notation purposes
[tex]S(t) = 42(0.9995)^t[/tex]
(b) Approximately how long will it take for 0.2 grams of substance to remain (to the nearest year)?
This is t when [tex]S(t) = 0.2[/tex]. So
[tex]S(t) = 42(0.9995)^t[/tex]
[tex]0.2 = 42(0.9995)^t[/tex]
[tex](0.9995)^t = \frac{0.2}{42}[/tex]
[tex]\log{(0.9995)^t} = \log{\frac{0.2}{42}}[/tex]
[tex]t\log{0.9995} = \log{\frac{0.2}{42}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{\log{\frac{0.2}{42}}}{\log{0.9995}}[/tex]
[tex]t = 10692[/tex]
It will take 10,692 years.

Height of flag : height of Tommy = shadow length of flag : shadow o
Length of Tommy
30:5.5 = (25 + x) : x
30/5.5 = (25 + x)/x
30×x = 5.5(25 + x)
30x = 137.5 + 5.5x
30x - 5.5x = 137.5
24.5x = 137.5
x = 137.5/24.5
x = 5.61 (nearest hundredth)

an enrollment of 200 students and this year enrollment has increased by 118%. What is this year's enrollment ?
Answer:
436 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Original number of students enrolled = 200students
% increase = 118%
Increment = 118% of 200
Increment = 1.18 * 200
Increment = 236
The year enrollment = 200 + 236
The year enrollment = 436 students

If x = t^3 and y = t^2 - 2 , what is y in terms of x?
Answer:
E
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to get t^2 in the first equation.
x = t^3 Take the cube root of both sides
[tex]\sqrt[3]{x} = \sqrt[3]{t^3}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt[3]{x}=t[/tex] Now square both sides
[tex](\sqrt[3]{x})^2 = t^2[/tex]
[tex]x^\frac{2}{3} = t^2[/tex]
Now you can substitute into the second equation
y = t^2 - 2
y = [tex]x^\frac{2}{3}[/tex] - 2

Write an equation using “x” and then solve the equation. The rate charged for a standard room is $250 dollars. A couple stayed in a standard room for x nights and their total room charge is $750.
Answer:
3 nights
Step-by-step explanation:
total charge = rate times time interval
Here, time interval = total charge / rate
$750 = ($250/night)(n nights)
Solving for n, we get n = 3 (nights)
An equation for a couple stayed in a standard room for x nights and their total room charge is $750 is, 250x = 750
What is an Equation ?An equation is a mathematical term, which indicates that the value of two algebraic expressions are equal. There are various parts of an equation which are, coefficients, variables, constants, terms, operators, expressions, and equal to sign.
For example, 3x+2y=0.
Types of equation
1. Linear Equation
2. Quadratic Equation
3. Cubic Equation
Given that,
The rate charged for a standard room is $250 dollars
A couple stayed in a standard room for x nights
Total room charge = $750
Equation = ?
Total charge = 250 × x
Total charge = 750
So,
250x = 750
Thus, an equation is 250x = 750

which function displays the fastest growth as the x-values continue to increase?
The exponential function q(x) displays the fastest growth as the x-values continue to increase.
The correct option is D.
What is an exponential function?Mathematical functions with exponents include exponential functions. f(x) = bˣ, where b > 0 and b 1, is a fundamental exponential function.
Given:
A table is given for the value of x.
The function m(x) shows the linear relationship.
Because it has constant first difference.
n(x) is not a function because it has 2 input values connecting to one output value.
And the function q(x) has common ratio,
0.3/0.15 = 2.
So, it is an exponential function.
So, this function will display the fastest growth.
Therefore, the function is q(x).

Answer:
The remaining piece measures 16 m
which agrees with answer D
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make a square of area 25 m^2, we need a square of side 5 m ,
Area of square = side^2
25 = side^2 then each side = 5 m
therefore the person needed 4 times 5 m to create the square, that is 20 m for the square. Therefore the piece that is left can be calculated with the difference:
36 m - 20 m = 16 m
The remaining piece measures 16 m
The length of a rectangle multiplied by 3 is equal to 4 times its width. The perimeter is 8 2/5 feet. Find the length and width.
Answer:
W=1 4/5 feet
L= 2 2/5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
3L = 4W L = 4W/3
2L+2W = 8 2/5
Substitute L
2(4W/3)+2W = 8 2/5
8W/3+2W = 8 2/5
multiply both sides by 3
8W+6W = 24 6/5
14W = 25 1/5
Divide both sides by 14
14W/14 = (25 1/5)/14
W = (126/5)/14 = 9/5 = 1 4/5
Substitute for W
L = 4(1 4/5)/3
L = (4)(9/5)/3 = (36/5)/3 = 12/5 = 2 2/5
The perimeter is an enclosed area of any two or one-dimensional shape.
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
[tex]\rm P = 2 ( L + B )[/tex]
The length is [tex]\rm 2 \dfrac{2}{5} feet[/tex] and the width of the rectangle is [tex]\rm 1\dfrac{4}{5} feet[/tex].
This can be calculated by:
Given,
Perimeter (P) = [tex]\rm 8 \dfrac{2}{5} feet[/tex]Let,
Length = LWidth = WSince,
3L = 4W
[tex]\rm L = \dfrac{4W}{3}[/tex]
Substituting the value of L in the equation of perimeter:
[tex]\rm 2(\dfrac{4W}{3}) + 2W = 8 \dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\rm \dfrac{8W}{3} + 2W = 8 \dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
Now multiplying the left and right sides by 3 we get:
[tex]\rm 8W+6W = 24 \dfrac{6}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\rm 14W = 25 \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
Now divide both sides by 14:
[tex]\rm \dfrac{14W}{14} =\dfrac{(25 \dfrac{1}{5})}{14}[/tex]
[tex]\rm W = \dfrac{(\dfrac{126}{5})}{14} \\\\= \dfrac{9}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\rm W = 1 \dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]
Now substituting the value of W, length can be calculated:
[tex]\rm L = \dfrac{4(1 \dfrac{4}{5})}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\rm L = \dfrac{(4)\dfrac{9}{5}}{3} \\\\= \dfrac{(\dfrac{36}{5})}{3} \\\\= \dfrac{12}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\rm L = 2 \dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
Therefore, length is [tex]\rm 2 \dfrac{2}{5} feet[/tex] and width is [tex]\rm 1\dfrac{4}{5} feet[/tex].

cual es la longitud del alambre que sostiene un poste de 8 m de altura , si dicho alambre esta amarrado al suelo a 4m del poste
Answer:
La longitud del alambre que sostiene el poste es 8.94 metros.
Step-by-step explanation:
La longitud del alambre se puede calcular usando Pitágoras:
[tex] L^{2} = P^{2} + B^{2} [/tex]
En donde:
L: es la longitud del alambre =?
P: es la altura del poste = 8 m
B: es la distancia del alambre al poste = 4 m
Entonces, la longitud del alambre es:
[tex] L = \sqrt{P^{2} + B^{2}} = \sqrt{(8 m)^{2} + (4 m)^{2}} = 8.94 m [/tex]
Por lo tanto, la longitud del alambre que sostiene el poste es 8.94 metros.
