A decrease by 30%, means that the price is now 70% of the original price ( 100% - 30% = 70%)

To find the original price divide the new price by the percent of the original price it is now.

147 / 0.70 = 210

The original price was £210

Carbon–14 is a radioactive isotope that decays exponentially at a rate of 0.0124 percent a year. How many years will it take for
stepan [7]
The decay rate should have units, it should be negative and it should be 100 times smaller than what you posted.
k = -.000124 / years

k = -.000124 / years
Half-Life = ln (.5) / k
Half-Life = -.693147 / -.000124
Half-Life = <span> <span> <span> 5589.8951612903 </span> </span> </span>
Half-Life = 5,590 (rounded)

elapsed time = half-life * log(bgng amt / end amt) / log(2)
elapsed time = 5,590 * log(10) / <span> <span> <span> 0.3010299957 </span> </span> </span>
elapsed time = 5,590 * 1 / <span> <span> 0.3010299957 </span>
</span>elapsed time = <span> <span> <span> 18,569 years

AveGali [126]

Answer:

64.3 miles ( D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Circular orbit height ( from the center of the earth ) = 100 mile

angle between satellite and earth = 50°

escape velocity = √2 * 17500 =  24748.73 miles /hour

distance between surface of earth and satellite

x = cos ∅

∴ Cos ∅  = x / 100

x = cos 50° * 100   ≈ 64.3 miles
