Answer:
Carbon-14 loses around 10% ( 0.1 in decimal form) of its mass, after one millennium.
Then if we start with a mass A of Carbon-14, after one millennium we will have a mass equal to:
A - A*0.1 = A*(0.9)
After another millennium, we will have a mass equal to:
A*(0.9) - A*(0.9)*0.1 = A*(0.9)^2
And so on, this is an exponential decay.
We already can see the pattern here, after x millenniums, the mass of carbon-14 will be:
M(x) = A*(0.9)^x
Now, in this problem we have 600 grams of carbon-14, then the equation for the mass will be:
y = M(x) = 600g*(0.9)^x
And the graph of this equation is shown below.
The equation to find the volume of a cylinder is V = pi•r^2•h.
The radius is half of the diameter. Since Mr. James' beakers have a diameter of 4, their radius would be 2. 2 squared is 4.
Their height is 9 inches.
V = 3.14•4•9
V = 3.14•36
V = 113.04
The answer is C, or 113.04 cubic inches.
To solve this, you have to take 7/12 out of each pan first, so how to do that is to divide each pan into 1/12. So you did that, and all three pans equal 36/12. Great. Eliza has 36/12 fruit bars.
Now, you see that the classmates at 7/12 out of EACH. To find that out, you just multiply 7/12 by 3 which is 21/12. Subtract 21/12 from 36/12 since the classmates ate 21/12 out of the total and you get 15/12.
Now she gave 1 pan to the secretaries, which is 12/12, so you subtract that from the 15/12 you have left over. That's 3/12.
And she brought 3/12 home. You can simplify that into 1/4.
What you put is correct. A’B’C’D’ is what would be shown if you rotate ABCD 90 degrees clockwise
Answer: These are some points of the grahp:
(-2,4)
(0, 3)
(2, 2)
Explanation:
1) f(x) = -0.5x + 3, is the equation of the form y = mx + b
2) y = mx + b is slope-intercept equation of a line where the slope is m and the y-intercept is b, so, f(x) = - 0.5x + b has slope m = -0.5 and y-intercept b = 3.
3) To graph f(x) = -0.5x + 3, follow these steps:
- draw two perpedicular axis: vertical axis, labeled y, and horizontal axis, labeled x.
- draw marks on each axis, each mark equivalent to one unit.
- the intersection point of the vertical and horizontal axis is the origin, i.e. point (0,0).
- you can make a table with two or more points:
x f(x) = - 0.5x + 3
-2 4
0 3
2 2
4 1
6 0
4) You can see the graph in the figure attached, and select any of the points on the line either by using the table or by using the equation f(x) = -0.5x + 3.
