An element with a mass of 550 grams decays by 18.8% per minute. To the nearest minute, how long will it be until there are 60 grams of the element remaining

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  11

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

y=ab^x

y=ab  

x

 

a=\text{starting value = }550

a=starting value = 550

r=\text{rate = }18.8\% = 0.188

r=rate = 18.8%=0.188

\text{Exponential Decay:}

Exponential Decay:

b=1-r=1-0.188=0.812

b=1−r=1−0.188=0.812

\text{Write Exponential Function:}

Write Exponential Function:

y=550(0.812)^x

y=550(0.812)  

x

 

Put it all together

\text{Plug in y-value:}

Plug in y-value:

60=550(0.812)^x

60=550(0.812)  

x

 

\frac{60}{550}=\frac{550(0.812)^x}{550}

550

60

​  

=  

550

550(0.812)  

x

 

​  

 

Divide both sides by 550

0.109091=0.812^x

0.109091=0.812  

x

 

\log 0.109091=\log 0.812^x

log0.109091=log0.812  

x

 

Take the log of both sides

\log 0.109091=x\log 0.812

log0.109091=xlog0.812

use power rule to bring x to the front

\frac{\log 0.109091}{\log 0.812}=\frac{x\log 0.812}{\log 0.812}

log0.812

log0.109091

​  

=  

log0.812

xlog0.812

​  

 

Divide both sides by log(0.812)

Uta invests an amount into a compound interest investment account that pays 6% a year. After six years, she withdraws her total balance of $500. Using the formula A = P (1 + r) Superscript t, how much money did Uta initially invest?
$180.00
$320.00
$352.48
$471.70

Answers

Answer: $352.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the formula:

A = P (1 + r)^t

Where  

A: total balance after invest

P: principal amount invested

r = interest rate (in decimal form)

t = time (years)

Replacing with the values given:

500= P (1+0.06)^6

Solving for P:

500 = P (1.06)^6

500 / ( (1.06)^6)=P

500 / 1.4185 =P

$352.48= P

2A - 5B + 4X = C - 8X

Answers

Answer:

(5B+C-2A)/8 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

2A - 5B + 4X = C - 8X

subtract 4x from both sides

2A - 5B + 4X-4x = C - 8X-4x

2A - 5B = C - 12X

subtract C from both sides

2A - 5B -C = C-C - 8X

2A - 5B -C = - 8X

divide both sides by -8

(2A - 5B -C)/-8 = - 8X/-8

(-2A+5B+C)/8 = x

(5B+C-2A)/8 = x

What is 3=7(4 - 2u)-6u

Answers

Answer:

u = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

to evaluate for the value of u we would simply open the bracket and then evaluate for the value of u by collecting the like terms together.

solution

3=7(4 - 2u)-6u

3 = 28- 14u - 6u

collect the like terms

3 + 14u + 6u = 28

20u = 28 - 3

20u = 25

divide both sides by the coefficient of u which is 20

20u/20 = 25/20

u = 5/4

Answer:

[tex]u = 5/4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Distribute on the right side

[tex]3 = 7(4 - 2u) - 6u[/tex]

[tex]3 = (7 * 4) + (7 * -2u) - 6u[/tex]

[tex]3 = 28 - 14u - 6u[/tex]

Step 2:  Combine like terms

[tex]3 = 28 + (-14u - 6u)[/tex]

[tex]3 = 28 + -20u[/tex]

Step 3:  Subtract 28 from both sides

[tex]3 - 28 = 28 - 20u - 28[/tex]

[tex]-25 = -20u[/tex]

Step 4:  Divide both sides by -20

[tex]-25 / -20 = -20u / -20[/tex]

[tex]5/4 = u[/tex]

60% of x is equal to 87. Write an equation that expresses the relationship between 60%, x, and 87.

Answers

Answer: 0.6x = 87

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write en equation:

We have to multiply the variable x by the percentage given (60%) in decimal form (divided by 100). That expression must be equal to 87.

Mathematically speaking:

x (60/100) = 87

0.6x = 87

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

This equation states that 60% (or 0.60) of x is equal to 87.

To express the relationship between 60% of x and 87, we can set up an equation. Since 60% can be written as 0.60, we can write:

0.60x = 87

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.60:

x = 87 ÷ 0.60

So, x will be:

x = 145

This shows that 60% of 145 is equal to 87.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8 = 3x + -1

Reorder the terms:

8 = -1 + 3x

Solving

8 = -1 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

8 + -3x = -1 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

8 + -3x = -1 + 0

8 + -3x = -1

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + -3x = -1 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + -3x = -1 + -8

-3x = -1 + -8

Combine like terms: -1 + -8 = -9

-3x = -9

Divide each side by '-3'.

x = 3

15 kilograms of rice are separated equally into 4 containers. How many kilograms of rice are in each

container? Express your answer as a decimal and as a fraction,

Answers

Final answer:

Each container will have approximately 3.75 kilograms of rice, which can be expressed as 3.75 kg or 15/4 kg.

Explanation:

To find out how many kilograms of rice are in each container, we need to divide the total weight of the rice by the number of containers. In this case, we have 15 kilograms of rice and 4 containers, so we divide 15 by 4. The result is 3.75 kilograms.

So, each container will have 3.75 kilograms of rice.

As a decimal, this can be expressed as 3.75 kg. As a fraction, it can be written as 15/4 kg.

(8.2) (10.3) + 2 (one-half (10.3) (11.1)) + 2 (one-half (8.2) (11.1))

Answers

Answer:

(8.2) (8.2) + 4 (one-half (8.2) (11.1))

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for calculating the surface area of a square based pyramid is expressed as:

Surface area = A + 1/2ps

A is the base area

P is the perimeter of base

S is the slant side.

Since the base of the pyramid is a square, then

Base Area A = L²

A = 8.2²

A = 67.24cm²

Perimeter of square = 4L = 4(8.2)

= 32.8cm

Slant Height = 11.1cm

On substituting the gotten value:

Surface area = 8.2(8.2) + 1/2 [4(8.2 (11.1)]

Based on the solution above, the expression below is correct.

S =(8.2) (8.2) + 4 (one-half (8.2) (11.1))

It takes 41.7 BTUs to heat a 5 gallon jug of water. What is the density of a gallon of water. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer: The density is 0.002 lb/cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

1 BTU is neded to increment the temperature of 1 Lb of water by 1° F

Then if we need 41.7 BTU to increment 1°F of 5 gallons of water, this means that in the 5 gallons we have a mass of 41.7 lbs of water.

And as you know, density = mass/volume

now, 1 gallon = 3.78 liters = 3780 cm^3

then 5 gallons = 5*3780 cm^3  = 18900 cm^3

The density is D = 41.7Lb/18900 cm^3 = 0.002 lb/cm^3

Volume of a rectangular prism is 275 cubic Inches. The base is a square with the
side length of 5 inches. Find the height of this prism. Write the formula, and solve
as an equation. V=s?h

Answers

Answer:

11 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with the base, we know the side length is 5 inches. So with that in mind, we can do 5 x 5 to get the area of the base, 25. We also know the volume of the whole rectangular prism is 275, so we can do 275 ÷ 25. The quotient of that is 11.

We can check our answer by doing 11 x 25. This gives us 275, proving that it is correct.
