A "drug dissipates at a continuous rate" 12% per hour. how long until a quarter of the drug is left.

1 answer:

8 0

It would take 6 hours and 15 minutes.
Add 12 to itself until you reach near 75%. 6 x 12 = 72
This leaves 3 % still to go. 3% is one fourth of 12, so it would be 6 and 1/4 hours which is 6hrs and 15 min.

Merle Fonda opened a new savings account. She deposited $40,000 at 10% compounded semiannually. At the start of the fourth year,

IrinaVladis [17]

Use compound interest formula F=P(1+i)^n twice, one for each deposit and sum the two results.

For the P=$40,000 deposit,
i=10%/2=5% (semi-annual)
number of periods (6 months), n = 6*2 = 12
Future value (at end of year 6),
F = P(1+i)^n = 40,000(1+0.05)^12 = $71834.253

For the P=20000, deposited at the START of the fourth year, which is the same as the end of the third year.
i=5% (semi-annual
n=2*(6-3), n = 6
Future value (at end of year 6)
F=P(1+i)^n = 20000(1+0.05)^6 = 26801.913

Total amount after 6 years
= 71834.253 + 26801.913
=98636.17 (to the nearest cent.)

There were 125 females and 100 males present at the high school pep rally. Find the ratio of males to the total number of people

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Total number of people = 125 + 100 = 225

Number of males = 100

Set as ratio

100:225

Simplify to 4:9 (can not simplify further without having decimals but you can’t have half a person)
