A substance with a half life is decaying exponentially. If there are initially 12 grams of the substance and after 2 hours there are 7 grams, how many grams will remain after 3 hours? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, and do not include units.

Answers

Answer 1

If there initially 12 grams of the substance, 5.35 grams will remain after 3 hours

The initial amount, a = 12 grams

The amount after 2 hours, y = 7 grams

Time taken, x = 2 hours

First, let us calculate the decay constant, b

The formula for the final value of an exponential decay is:

[tex]y=a(1-b)^x[/tex]

Substitute y = 12, a = 7, and x = 2 into the equation to solve for b

[tex]7=12(1-b)^2\\\\\frac{7}{12} = (1-b)^2\\\\0.583=(1-b)^2\\\\\sqrt{0.583} = 1 - b\\\\0.764=1-b\\\\b=1-0.764\\\\b=0.236[/tex]

The decay constant, b = 0.236

After 3 hours:

Substitute x = 3, a = 12, and b = 0.236 to solve for y

[tex]y=a(1-b)^x\\\\y=12(1-0.236)^3\\\\y = 5.35[/tex]

Therefore, 5.35 grams will remain after 3 hours

Please help me with the worksheet

Answers

Answer:

9)    a = ¾, vertex: (-4, 2),  Equation: y = ¾|x + 4| + 2

10)  a = ¼, vertex: (0, -3),  Equation: y = ¼|x - 0| - 3

11)   a = -4,  vertex: (3,  1),   Equation: y = -4|x - 3| + 1

12)  a = 1,    vertex: (-2, -2),  Equation: y = |x + 2| - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:

I could only work on questions 9, 10, 11, 12 in accordance with Brainly's rules. Nevertheless, the techniques demonstrated in this post applies to all of the given problems in your worksheet.

Definitions:

The given set of graphs are examples of absolute value functions. The general form of absolute value functions is: y = a|x – h| + k, where:

|a|  = determines the vertical stretch or compression factor (wideness or narrowness of the graph).

(h, k) = vertex of the function

x = h represents the axis of symmetry.

Solutions:Question 9)  ⇒ Vertex: (-4, 2)

Solve for a:

In order to solve for the value of a, choose another point on the graph, (0, 5) and substitute into the general form (equation):

y = a|x – h| + k

5 = a| 0 - (-4)| + 2

5 = a| 0 + 4 | + 2

5 = a|4| + 2

5 = 4a + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides:

5 - 2 = 4a + 2 - 2

3 = 4a

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for a:

[tex]\LARGE\mathsf{\frac{3}{4}\:=\:\frac{4a}{4}}[/tex]

a = ¾

Therefore, given the value of a = ¾, and the vertex, (-4, 2), then the equation of the absolute value function is:

Equation:  y = ¾|x + 4| + 2

Question 10)  ⇒ Vertex: (0, -3)

Solve for a:

In order to solve for the value of a, choose another point on the graph, (4, -2) and substitute into the general form (equation):

y = a|x – h| + k

-2 = a|4 - 0| -3

-2 = a|4| - 3

-2 = 4a - 3

Add 3 to both sides:

-2 + 3 = 4a - 3 + 3

1 = 4a  

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for a:

[tex]\LARGE\mathsf{\frac{1}{4}\:=\:\frac{4a}{4}}[/tex]

a = ¼

Therefore, given the value of a = ¼, and the vertex, (0, -3), then the equation of the absolute value function is:

Equation:  y = ¼|x - 0| - 3

Question 11)  ⇒ Vertex: (3, 1)

Solve for a:

In order to solve for the value of a, choose another point on the graph, (4, -3) and substitute into the general form (equation):

y = a|x – h| + k

-3 = a|4 - 3| + 1

-3 = a|1| + 1

-3 = a + 1

Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate a:

-3 - 1 = a + 1 - 1

a = -4

Therefore, given the value of a = -4, and the vertex, (3, 1), then the equation of the absolute value function is:

Equation:  y = -4|x - 3| + 1

Question 12)  ⇒ Vertex: (-2, -2)

Solve for a:

In order to solve for the value of a, choose another point on the graph, (-4, 0) and substitute into the general form (equation):

y = a|x – h| + k

0 = a|-4 - (-2)| - 2

0 = a|-4 + 2| - 2

0 = a|-2| - 2

0 = 2a - 2

Add 2 to both sides:

0 + 2  = 2a - 2 + 2

2 = 2a

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for a:

[tex]\LARGE\mathsf{\frac{2}{2}\:=\:\frac{2a}{2}}[/tex]

a = 1

Therefore, given the value of a = -1, and the vertex, (-2, -2), then the equation of the absolute value function is:

Equation:  y = |x + 2| - 2

Answers

The approximate percentage of the points scored during the second part of the  game is 43%

Given the total score at the second part of the game  = 35 points

Score at the first part of the game = 20 points

Amount of score during the second part of the game  = 35  = 20 = 15 points

% score in the second part  = 15/35 * 100

% score in the second part  = 1500/35

% score in the second part = 42.85 ≈ 43%

Hence the approximate percentage of the points scored during the second part of the  game is 43%

Therefore

∠1 ≅ ∠5, and ∠3 ≅ ∠6 by alternate interior angles theorem which states that alternate interior angles, which are the pair angles formed in the inside face of two parallel lines crossed by a common and the common transversal but on either of the transversal, are congruent

Hello!

Judging by the link you provided I have come up with the correct solution:

x= 61°

y= 29°

Step-by-step explanation:

I will link my work below:

The first step to finding the two solutions it to first identify one of them.

I chose to identify x first.

To identify the value of x in this problem you have to notice that the x value corresponds with the value "29°" to form a perfect right angle, being 90°.

Thus you can simply find the value of x by doing this formula:

x+29°=90°

You then subtract 29° from both sides to simplify, and you come up with the solution

x=61°

Now we need to find the value of y.

To find the value of y I noticed that again, like x, y corresponds with another variable (being x) to form a perfect right angle (90°).

The way I realized this is a perfect right angle is because, as you can see in the picture you provided, the y+x angle are alternate exterior angles with another angle that is 90°.

Thus you can assume that:

x+y=90°

x= 61°

61°+y=90°

You then subtract 61° from both sides to get:

y=29°

A box of donuts containing 6 maple bars, 3 chocolate donuts, and 3 custard filled donuts is sitting on a counter in a work office. Warren comes along and decides to eat two in a row. What is the probability that Warren will eat a chocolate donut and then a custard filled donut

Answers

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of selecting a kind of donut from the box.

The probability that Warren eats a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is 0.068

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{Bars = 6}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Chocolate = 3}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Custard= 3}[/tex]

The total number of donuts in the box is:

[tex]\mathbf{Total= 6 + 3 + 3}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Total= 12}[/tex]

The probability of eating a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is calculated using:

[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{Chocolate}{Total}\times \frac{Custard}{Total-1}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{3}{12}\times \frac{3}{12-1}}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{3}{12}\times \frac{3}{11}}[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]\mathbf{Pr = \frac{9}{132}}[/tex]

Divide

[tex]\mathbf{Pr = 0.068}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that Warren eats a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is approximately 0.068
