Cesium-137 has a half-life of about 30 years. A) Find the annual decay rate and round final result to 4 decimal places. B) Find the continuous decay rate and round final result to 4 decimal places. C) How long will it take for a 10 gram sample to decay to 1 gram? Round to nearest year and interpret your result with a complete sentence. D) Complete this statement: as x goes to infinity, y goes to ___.
Answer:
0.02280.0231100 years0Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential equation for the fraction remaining after x years can be written as ...
y = (1/2)^(x/30)
A) For x=1, the fraction remaining is ...
y = (1/2)^(1/30) ≈ 0.97716 = 1 - 0.0228
Of the original amount, 0.0228 decays each year.
__
B) The continuous decay rate is the natural log of the growth factor, so is ...
ln(0.97716) = -0.0231
The continuous decay rate is 0.0231 of the present amount (per year).
__
C) For y=.10 (1/10 of the original amount) we find x to be ...
.1 = .5^(x/30)
ln(.1) = (x/30)ln(.5) . . . . . take the natural log
30ln(0.1)/ln(0.5) = x ≈ 100 . . . years
It will take 100 years for a 10-gram sample to decay to 1 gram.
__
D) As x goes to infinity, y goes to zero.
_____
The relationship between growth rate and growth factor is ...
growth factor = 1 + growth rate
When the growth rate is negative, it is called a decay rate.

Lennox owns a big apple orchard. She ships her apples to various markets using a fleet of trucks. Every week, each truck goes on 3 trips, and for each trip Lennox gets 300 dollars. On a single trip, a truck delivers 50 packs, and each pack contains 12 kilograms of apples. Overall, Lennox sells 4500 dollars worth of apples in a week. How much does Lennox get for a single kilogram of apples?
Answer:
$0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Each trip transports 50 packs at 12 kg each, for a total of 600 kg. That trip nets $300 in income.
Lennox gets paid ($300)/(600 kg) = $0.50/kg, or 50¢ for 1 kg of apples
Answer:5 trucks
Step-by-step explanation: in kahn it’s 4500 divided by 900 because she makes 300 a trip which makes 900$ a truck

In order to study the mean blood pressure of people in his town, Richard samples the population by dividing the residents by age and randomly selecting a proportionate number of residents from each age group. Which type of sampling is used?
a. Convenience sampling
b. Cluster sampling
c. Stratified sampling
d. Systematic sampling
Answer:
C Stratified sampling
Step-by-step explanation:
Stratified sampling : Stratified sampling is a type of sampling technique in which the total population is divided into smaller groups or strata to complete the sampling process. The strata is formed based on some common characteristics in the data of the population.
One of the advantage of stratified random sampling is that it covers important population characteristics in the sample.

A line contains the piont (4,5) and is perpendicular to a line with a slope of -2/3. Write an equarion of the line satisfying the given conditions. Write the answer in slope-intercept form
Answer:
[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-3.5[/tex] or, preferably, [tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First is to find the perpendicular slope. In this case, you swap the numerator and denominator and then multiply that fraction by -1.
In this case, -2/3's inverse slope is 3/2.
Now, the initial y=3/2 passes through 7.5,5
So, you must subtract 3.5 from that to make it pass through 4,5.
In this way, you get the answer in slope-intercept form.
Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{-\frac{2}{3} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] , then
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] + c ← partial equation in slope- intercept form
To find c substitute (4, 5) into the partial equation
5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 1 ← equation of line

Therefore, [tex] \frac{AB}{ED} = \frac{AC}{DC} [/tex]
AB = 3
ED = 4
AC = x + 1
DC = x + 3
Plug in the values and solve for x:

A blue die and a red die are thrown. B is the event that the blue comes up with a 6. E is the event that both dice come up even. Write the sizes of the sets |E ∩ B| and |B|a. |E ∩ B| = ___b. |B| = ____
Answer:
Size of |E n B| = 2
Size of |B| = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll assume both die are 6 sides
Given
Blue die and Red Die
Required
Sizes of sets
- [tex]|E\ n\ B|[/tex]
- [tex]|B|[/tex]
The question stated the following;
B = Event that blue die comes up with 6
E = Event that both dice come even
So first; we'll list out the sample space of both events
[tex]B = \{6\}[/tex]
[tex]E = \{2,4,6\}[/tex]
Calculating the size of |E n B|
[tex]|E n B| = \{2,4,6\}\ n\ \{6\}[/tex]
[tex]|E n B| = \{2,4,6\}[/tex]
The size = 3 because it contains 3 possible outcomes
Calculating the size of |B|
[tex]B = \{6\}[/tex]
The size = 1 because it contains 1 possible outcome

An experimental probability is ______ likely to approach the theoretical probability if the number of trials simulated is larger. A. as B. more C. less D. not
Answer:
B. More
Step-by-step explanation:
This is according to the law of large numbers
An experimental probability is more likely to approach the theoretical probability if the number of trials simulated is larger.
What is an experimental probability and theoretical probability?Experimental probability is an experimental outcome whereas theoretical probability is a possible or expected outcome.
An experimental probability is more likely to approach the theoretical probability if the number of trials increased because of the law of large numbers which states that the average of the results obtained from a large number of trials should be close to the expected value and tends to become closer to the expected value as more trials are performed
Thus using the concept of the law of large numbers we can say that an experimental probability is more likely to approach the theoretical probability.

A. 0.10

D. 0.06
Answer:
OPTION D is correct
d)0.06
the probability that a randomly selected team from Littletown goes to the city and state playoffs is [tex]0.06[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that a baseball team goes to city playoffs is 0.30.
P(baseball team goes to city playoffs)=0.30
The probability that the team goes to state playoffs given that the team goes to the city playoffs is 0.20.
P(team goes to state playoffs given that the team goes to the city playoffs)=0.20
From our knowledge of set, we know that
P(A | B)= P(A ∩ C)/P(C)
where A= city playoffs
B= state playoffs
P(State play off | city play off)=0.20
P(State play off ∩ city play off)/P(city play off,)=0.20
P(State play off ∩ city play off)/0.30 =0.20
P(State play off ∩ city play off)= 0.30 × 0.20
= 0.06
Hence,the probability that a randomly selected team from Littletown goes to the city and state playoffs is 0.06
