Answer:
.0000416
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 10 is squared by a negative number, the number (4.16) will be smaller. To find the answer, move the decimal 5 places to the left
Answer:
0.0000416.
Step-by-step explanation:
When 10 is raised to a negative power, that means that the decimal point will be moved to the left a certain number of units.
In this case, it is 10^-5, so the decimal point will move to the left by 5 units.
4.16 * 10^-5 = 000004.16 * 10^-5 = 0.0000416.

When doctors prescribe medicine, they must consider how much the drug’s effectiveness will decrease as time passes. If each hour a drug is only 95% as effective as the previous hour, at some point the patient will not be receiving enough medicine and must be given another dose. If the initial dose was 250 mg, what will the level of the dose be after 3 hours?
Answer: The level of the dose be after 3 hours= 0.03125 mg.
Step-by-step explanation:
General exponential decay equation : [tex]y=A(1-r)^x[/tex] , where A = initial value , r= rate of decay , x =Time period.
Here, drug’s effectiveness is decreasing exponentially.
AS per given , we have
A= 250 mg
x=3
r= 95% = 0.95
Then, [tex]y=250(1-0.95)^3 = 250(0.05)^3=250*0.000125=0.03125[/tex]
Hence, the level of the dose be after 3 hours = 0.03125 mg.

Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf Option \ 4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\sqrt{2x-3} +x=3[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides.
[tex]\sqrt{2x-3} +x-x=-x+3[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{2x-3}=-x+3[/tex]
Square both sides.
[tex]( \sqrt{2x-3})^2 =(-x+3)^2[/tex]
[tex]2x-3=x^2-6x+9[/tex]
Subtract x²-6x+9 from both sides.
[tex]2x-3-(x^2-6x+9 )=x^2-6x+9-(x^2-6x+9)[/tex]
[tex]-x^2 +8x-12=0[/tex]
Factor left side of the equation.
[tex](-x+2)(x-6)=0[/tex]
Set factors equal to 0.
[tex]-x+2=0\\-x=-2\\x=2[/tex]
[tex]x-6=0\\x=6[/tex]
Check if the solutions are extraneous or not.
Plug x as 2.
[tex]\sqrt{2(2)-3} +2=3\\ \sqrt{4-3} +2=3\\\sqrt{1} +2=3\\3=3[/tex]
x = 2 works in the equation.
Plug x as 6.
[tex]\sqrt{2(6)-3} +6=3\\ \sqrt{12-3} +6=3\\\sqrt{9} +6=3\\3+6=3\\9=3[/tex]
x = 6 does not work in the equation.
Answer:
option d
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\sqrt{2x-3}+x = 3\\\\\sqrt{2x-3} = 3 -x\\[/tex]
Square both sides
[tex](\sqrt{2x-3})^{2}=(3-x)^{2}\\\\\\2x-3=9-6x+x^{2}\\\\0=x^{2}-6x + 9 - 2x + 3\\[/tex] {Add like terms}
[tex]x^{2} - 8x + 12 = 0[/tex]
Sum = -8
Product = 12
Factors = -2 , - 6
x² - 2x - 6x + (-2) * (-6) = 0
x(x -2) - 6(x -2) = 0
(x -2) (x - 6) = 0
x - 2 =0 ; x - 6 = 0
x = 2 ; x = 6
roots of the equation : 2 , 6
But when we put x = 6, it doesn't satisfies the equation.
When x = 6,
[tex]\sqrt{2x-3} + x = 3\\\\\sqrt{2*6-3}+6 = 3\\\\\sqrt{12-3}+6=3\\\\\sqrt{9}+6=3\\\\[/tex]
3 + 6≠ 3
Therefore, x = 2 but x = 6 is extraneous
4 1/3 b+b=6b–10.4 efvnabvkjaebv
Answer: The value of b= 15.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation: [tex]4\dfrac{1}{3}b+b=6b-10.4[/tex]
To find : Value of b.
Since, we can write [tex]4\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{13}{3}[/tex]
So, the given equation becomes [tex]\dfrac{13}{3}b+b=6b-10.4[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow\dfrac{13b+3b}{3}=6b-10.4\Rightarrow\dfrac{16b}{3}=6b-10.4[/tex]
Subtract 6b from both sides , we get
[tex]\Rightarrow\dfrac{16b}{3}=6b-10.4\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{16b-18b}{3}=-10.4\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{-2b}{3}=-10.4\\\\\Rightarrow b=-10.4\times\dfrac{-3}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ b= 15.6[/tex]
hence, the value of b= 15.6

The quadratic 4x^2+2x-1 can be written in the form a(x+b)^2+c, where a, b, and c are constants. What is a+b+c?
Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ \ a+b+c=3 \ \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
[tex]4x^2+2x-1=4(x^2+\dfrac{2}{4}x)-1=4[(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1}{4^2}]-1[/tex]
As
[tex](x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2=x^2+\dfrac{2}{4}x+\dfrac{1^2}{4^2}=x^2+\dfrac{2}{4}x+\dfrac{1}{4^2} \ \ So \\\\x^2+\dfrac{2}{4}x=(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1}{4^2}[/tex]
Let 's go back to the first equation
[tex]4x^2+2x-1=4[(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1}{4^2}]-1=4(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1}{4}-1\\\\=4(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{1+4}{4}=\boxed{4(x+\dfrac{1}{4})^2-\dfrac{5}{4}}[/tex]
a = 4
[tex]b=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\c=-\dfrac{5}{4}[/tex]
[tex]a+b+c=4+\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{5}{4}=\dfrac{4*4+1-5}{4}=\dfrac{12}{4}=3[/tex]

Answer:
The translation from triangle IJK to triangle I'J'K' is [tex]T_{(2, 6)}[/tex] which is 2 units to the right and 6 units up
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinates of triangle JKI are;
J has coordinates (1, - 1)
K has coordinates (1, - 4)
I has coordinates (-3, - 2)
While, the coordinates of translation triangle J'K'I' are;
J' has coordinates (3, 5)
K' has coordinates (3, 2)
I' has coordinates (-1, 4)
Which give the translation as follows
Translation in the y-coordinate (y values);
For J = 5 - (-1) = 6
For K = 2 - (-4) = 6
For I = 4 - (-2) = 6
Translation in the x-coordinate (x values);
For J = 3 - 1 = 2
Therefore, the translation from triangle IJK to triangle I'J'K' is T(2, 6) which is 2 units to the right and 6 units up

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have f(x) and g(x). We are to evaluate each of these functions at the domain values given (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) and see where the output is the same.
[tex]f(1)=-(1)^2+4(1)+12[/tex] and f(1) = 15
[tex]f(2)=-(2)^2+4(2)+12[/tex] and f(2) = 16
[tex]f(3)=-(3)^2+4(3)+12[/tex] and f(3) = 15
[tex]f(4)=-(4)^2+4(4)+12[/tex] and f(4) = 12
[tex]f(5)=-(5)^2+4(5)+12[/tex] and f(5) = 7
[tex]f(6)=-(6)^2+4(6)+12[/tex] and f(6) = 0
Now for g(x) at each of these domain values:
g(1) = 1 + 2 and g(1) = 3
g(2) = 2 + 2 and g(2) = 4
g(3) = 3 + 2 and g(3) = 5
g(4) = 4 = 2 and g(4) = 6
g(5) = 5 + 2 and g(5) = 7
g(6) = 6 + 2 and g(6) = 8
It looks like the outputs are the same at f(5) and g(5). Actually, the domains are the same as well! f(5) = g(5)
A ladder is leaning against a wall at an angle of 70° with the ground. The distance along the ground is 86cm. Find the length of the ladder
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{x = 251.4 cm}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1: Sketching the triangle
We are given the angle of elevation, 70°, and the distance along the ground, 86 centimeters. Our unknown is a ladder leaning against the building. Buildings are erected vertically, so the unknown side length is the hypotenuse of the triangle.
We can then sketch this triangle out to visualize it (attachment).
Part 2: Determining what trigonometric ratio can solve the problem
Now, we need to refer to our three trigonometric ratios:
[tex]sin = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]cos = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]tan = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]
Visualizing the sketched triangle, we can assign the three sides their terms in correspondence to the known angle -- this angle cannot be the right angle because the hypotenuse is opposite of it.
Therefore, we know our unknown side length is the hypotenuse of the triangle and because the other side is bordering the 70° angle, it is the adjacent side.
By assigning the sides, we can see that we need to use the trigonometric function that utilizes both the hypotenuse and the adjacent side to find the angle. This is the cosine function.
Part 3: Solving for the unknown variable
Now that we have determined what side we need to solve for and what trigonometric function we are going to use to do so, we just need to plug it all into the equation.
The cosine function is provided: [tex]cos( \alpha) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex], where [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angle. We just need to plug in our values and solve for our unknown side; the hypotenuse.
[tex]cos (70) = \frac{86 cm}{x}[/tex], where x is the unknown side/the hypotenuse.
[tex]x * cos (70) = \frac{86 cm}{x} * x[/tex] Multiply by x on both sides of the equation to eliminate the denominator and make the unknown easier to solve for.
[tex]\frac{xcos (70)}{cos(70)} = \frac{86 cm}{cos(70)}[/tex], Evaluate the second fraction because the first one cancels down to just the unknown, x.
[tex]\frac{86}{cos(70)} = 251.4[/tex], round to one decimal place.
Your final answer is [tex]\boxed{x=251.4cm}[/tex].

A bag contains five white marbles and five black marbles. What is the probability of drawing a white marble, not replacing it, and then drawing a black marble? A. 5/9 B. 1/4 C. 5/18 D. 1/2
~ ANSWER=1/2 ~
Simple probability is found by counting all the results which fit requirements and dividing by all possible results.
To find probability of two results in a row, multiply chance of first result by chance of second result.
Since you are replacing the marble before the second draw, we don’t have to figure out the various changes in odds for the different possible first draws. It’s just that simple.
There are 5 white marbles
There are 4 red marbles
There are always 20 marbles in all
5/20*4/20=1/4*1/5=1/20 or 1/2
By coincidence, the same as the chance of drawing the white marble in one draw.
Answer:
5/18

Claire is cycling at a speed of 12 miles per hour. Han is cycling at a speed of 8 miles per hour. If they start at the same position, chosen at zero, and bike in straight, opposite directions, what will the distance between them be after 45 minutes?
Answer:
15 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed is the ratio of distance traveled to the time taken to reach the distance. The formula for speed is given by:
Speed = distance / time
Distance = speed × time
Claire is cycling at a speed of 12 miles per hour. Han is cycling at a speed of 8 miles per hour. At time t = 45 minutes = 45/ 60 hour = 0.75 hour, the distance traveled by Claire and Han is given as:
For Claire:
Distance = speed × time = 12 miles / hour × 0.75 hour = 9 miles
For Han:
Distance = speed × time = 8 miles / hour × 0.75 hour = 6 miles
Since both Han and Claire are traveling in opposite directions, the distance between them after 45 minutes = 9 miles + 6 miles = 15 miles

-3x – 2y = -25
Enter the correct answer.
Answer:
y = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x – 2y = -25
Let x = 13
-3 * 13 -2y = -25
-39 -2y = -25
Add 39 to each side
-39+39 -2y = -25+39
-2y =14
Divide by -2
-2y/-2 = 14/-2
y = -7
Answer:
y = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 2y = -25
Plug x as 13.
-3(13) - 2y = -25
-39 - 2y = -25
Add 39 on both sides,
- 2y = 14
Divide both sides by -2.
y = -7

specific radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model. It has a half-life of hours. At the start of the experiment, is present.
Answer:
[tex] y = A_o (b)^t[/tex]
With [tex] A_o = 82.6[/tex] the initial amount and t the time on hours and t the time in hours. since the half life is 12 hours we can find the parameter of decay like this:
[tex] 41.3= 82.6(b)^{12}[/tex]
And solving for b we got:
[tex] \frac{1}{2}= b^{12}[/tex]
And then we have:
[tex] b= (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{12}}[/tex]
And the model would be given by:
[tex] y(t) = 82.6 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{12}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this complete question: "A specific radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model. It has a half-life of 12 hours. At the start of the experiment, 82.6g is present. "
For this case we can create a model like this one:
[tex] y = A_o (b)^t[/tex]
With [tex] A_o = 82.6[/tex] the initial amount and t the time on hours and t the time in hours. since the half life is 12 hours we can find the parameter of decay like this:
[tex] 41.3= 82.6(b)^{12}[/tex]
And solving for b we got:
[tex] \frac{1}{2}= b^{12}[/tex]
And then we have:
[tex] b= (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{12}}[/tex]
And the model would be given by:
[tex] y(t) = 82.6 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{12}}[/tex]
Find the interquartile range for a data set having the five-number summary: 3.5, 12, 19.1, 25.8, 31.8
Answer:
interquartile range=21.05
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5, 12, 19.1, 25.8, 31.8
median is 19.1
Quartile 1= (3.5+12)/2=7.75
Quartile 3=(25.8+31.8)/2=28.8
interquartile range=Q3-Q1=28.8-7.75= 21.05
A total of $10,000 is invested in two mutual funds. The first account yields 5% and the second account yields 6%. How much was invested in each account if the total interest earned in a year is $575?
Answer:
$2,500 was invested in the first account while $7,500 was invested in the second account
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we want to find the amount which was invested in each of the accounts, given their individual interest rates and the total amount that was accorded as interest from the two investments
Now, since we do not know the amount invested , we shall be representing them with variables.
Let the amount invested in the first account be $x and the amount invested in the second account be $y
Since the total amount invested is $10,000, this means that the summation of both gives $10,000
Mathematically;
x + y = 10,000 ••••••(i)
now for the $x, we have an interest rate of 5%
This mathematically translates to an interest value of 5/100 * x = 5x/100
For the $y, we have an interest rate of 6% and this mathematically translates to a value of 6/100 * y= 6y/100
The addition of both interests, gives 575
Thus mathematically;
5x/100 + 6y/100 = 575
Multiplying through by 100, we have
5x + 6y = 57500 •••••••••(ii)
From 1, we can have x = 10,000-y
let’s substitute this into equation ii
5(10,000-y) + 6y = 57500
50,000-5y + 6y = 57500
50,000 + y = 57500
y = 57500-50,000
y = 7,500
Recall;
x = 10,000-y
so we have;
x = 10,000-7500 = 2,500

Answer:
If the number is x, we can write the following equation:
2 + 10x = 2
10x = 0 so therefore, x must be 0. There is no other number that satisfies this property.
