<span>Graphing calculators are more accurate and are faster when finding the solution(s). <span>When solving a system of equations with a graphing calculator, you can have the calculator graph equations of any degree and shape. The graphing calculator also has functions to find where the graphs intersect between two points and are accurate sometimes to ten decimal places. When compared to graphing by hand you can get inaccurate results and results that are not as precise.</span></span>

Answer:

A graphing calculator creates more accurate graphs than graphing by hand.

A graphing calculator might accept lines in any form.

If the slope and/or y-intercept of a line is a decimal or fraction, it could be difficult to graph the line accurately by hand.

The window or zoom in and out can be adjusted on a graphing calculator, rather than having to redraw or rescale a graph by hand.

A sample of tritium-3 decayed to 94.5% of its original amount after a year.
Zolol [24]
(a) If y(t) is the mass after t days and y(0) = A then y(t) = Ae^{kt}.

y(1) = Ae^k = 0.945A \implies e^k = 0.945 \implies k = \ln 0.945

\text{Then } Ae^{(\ln 0.945)t} = \frac{1}{2}A\ \Leftrightarrow\ \ln e^{(\ln 0.945)t} = \ln \frac{1}{2}\ \Leftrightarrow\  ( \ln 0.945) t = \ln \frac{1}{2} \Leftrightarrow \\ \\&#10;t = - \frac{\ln 5}{\ln 0.945} \approx 12.25 \text{ years}

(b)
Ae^{(\ln 0.945) t} = 0.20 A \ \Leftrightarrow\ (\ln 0.945) t \ln \frac{1}{5}\ \implies \\ \\&#10;t = - \frac{\ln 5}{\ln 0.945} \approx 28.45\text{ years}

A manufacturer of skis offered chain discounts of 10/5/4 to many of its customers. Joe Jones ordered skis that had a total list
expeople1 [14]
,Okay, so here is how to calculate the amount of the trade discount:

I: $149,500 * .10 (10%) = 14,950 (this is the 10% discount)
149,500 - 14,950 = 134,550 (how much it costs with a 10% discount)

II: 134,550 * .5 (5%) = 6727.50
134,550 - 6727.50 = 127,822.50

III: 127,822.50 * .4 (4%) = 5112.90

The amount of the trade discount is: $14,950 + $6727.50 + $5112.90 = 26,790.40 dollars.

JL has coordinates J(-6, 1) and L(-4,3).<br> Find the coordinates of the midpoint.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The coordinates of the mid-point of JL are (-5 , 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

If point (x , y) is the mid-point of a segment whose end-points are (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}), then x=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2} and  y=\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}

∵ JL is a segment

∵ The coordinates of J are (-6 , 1)

∴  x_{1} = -6 and  y_{1} = 1

∵ The coordinates of L are (-4 , 3)

∴  x_{2} = -4 and  y_{2} = 3

Lets use the rule above to find the mid-point of JL

∵ x=\frac{-6+-4}{2}=\frac{-10}{2}

∴ x = -5

∴ The x-coordinate of the mid-point is -5

∵ y=\frac{1+3}{2}=\frac{4}{2}

∴ y = 2

∴ The y-coordinate of the mid-point is 2

∴ The coordinates of the mid-point of JL are (-5 , 2)

What is the following difference?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

  -7ab\sqrt[3]{3ab^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove perfect cubes from under the radical and combine like terms.

  2ab\sqrt[3]{192ab^2}-5\sqrt[3]{81a^4b^5}=2ab\sqrt[3]{4^3\cdot 3ab^2}-5\sqrt[3]{(3ab)^3\cdot 3ab^2}\\\\=(8ab -15ab)\sqrt[3]{3ab^2}=\boxed{-7ab\sqrt[3]{3ab^2} }
