Let's set up an inequality to help us solve this problem.
16.8 + w ≤ 50
Now, let's subtract 16.8 from both sides.
w ≤ 33.2 pounds
Answer:
The tank must remain intact for 1183 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential equation for decay:
The amount of a substance after t years is given by:
In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate.
A storage tank contains a liquid radioactive element with a half-life of 96 years.
This means that , and we use this to find r.
So
It will be relatively safe for the contents to leak from the tank when 0.02% of the radioactive element remains. How long must the tank remain intact for this storage procedure to be safe?
This is t for which . So
The tank must remain intact for 1183 years.
A. Yes because it passes the vertical line test
We are given:
- Parallelogram CDEF
- ∠C = 13x - 10
- ∠D = 5x + 10
To Find: ∠E
Concept Used:
- Adjacent angles of a Parallelogram are Supplementary
Finding the value of 'x':
Since adjacent angles of a parallelogram are Supplementary:
∠D + ∠C = 180
5x + 10 + 13x - 10 = 180 [replacing the values of angle C and D]
18x = 180
x = 10 [dividing both sides by 18]

Finding Measure of Angle D:
We are given that:
∠D = 5x + 10
∠D = 5(10) + 10 [since x = 10]
∠D = 60°
__________________________________________________________
Finding the measure of ∠E:
∠D and ∠E are Adjacent angles
Since Adjacent angles are Supplementary:
∠D + ∠E = 180
60 + ∠E = 180
∠E = 120° [subtracting 60 from both sides]
Hence, the measure of ∠E = 120°
Answer: y = (1 - 0.527)^t
Step-by-step explanation:
y=e^(-0.75t)
y=(e^-0.75)^t
y= 0.47236655^t
1 - 0.47236655 = 0.52763345
y = (1 - 0.527)^t
