Answer:
(–1.4, 1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The blue line and the purple line are the lines corresponding to the equations of interest. Their point of intersection is in the 2nd quadrant, so is nearest to ...
(–1.4, 1.5)
__
It can be useful to understand that for equations in standard form:
ax +by = c
the x- and y-intercepts are ...
- x-intercept: c/a . . . . value of x for y = 0
- y-intercept: c/b . . . . value of y for x = 0
__
For the equations of interest, the first has intercepts of ...
x=2/3, y=1/2 . . . . graphed line makes a 1st-quadrant triangle with the axes (blue line)
And the second has intercepts of ...
x=-1, y=-4 . . . . graphed line makes a 3rd-quadrant triangle with the axes (purple line)
Since the purple line has a steeper slope, the point of intersection of the lines will be in the 2nd quadrant. There is only one 2nd-quadrant answer choice: (-1.4, 1.5).
Answer:
20,944 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula you use for this type of decay problem is the one that uses the decay constant as opposed to the half life in years. We are given the k value of .00012. If we don't know how much carbon was in the bones when the person was alive, it would be safer to say that when he was alive he had 100% of his carbon. What's left then is 8.1%. Because the 8.1% is left over from 100% after t years, we don't need to worry about converting that percent into a decimal. We can use the 8.1. Here's the formula:
where N(t) is the amount left over after the decay occurs, 
is the initial amount, -k is the constant of decay (it's negative cuz decay is a taking away from as opposed to a giving to) and t is the time in years. Filling in accordingly,
Begin by dividing the 100 on both sides to get
Now take the natural log of both sides. Since the base of a natual log is e, natural logs and e "undo" each other, much like taking the square root of a squared number.
ln(.081)= -.00012t
Take the natual log of .081 on your calculator to get
-2.513306124 = -.00012t
Now divide both sides by -.00012 to get t = 20,944 years
40 tens = how many hundreds. 40 x 10 = 400
Answer:
(a) 
(b)
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Let u = π x
differentiating with respect to x
du = π dx
Putting the value of x and dx
[ c is an arbitrary constant]
Now putting the value of u
(b)
Let 
differentiating with respect to x
2du = dx
Putting the value of x and dx
=
=
Now putting the value of u
[ c is an arbitrary constant]
