A tumor is injected with 0.52 grams of Iodine-125. After 1 day, the amount of Iodine-125 has decreased by 1.15%.
Write an exponential decay model with A(t) representing the amount of Iodine-125 remaining in the tumor after t days. Enclose arguments of the function in parentheses and include a multiplication sign between terms. For example, c*ln(t).
Then use the formula for A(t) to find the amount of Iodine-125 that would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation is [tex]A(t) = 0.52*(0.9885)^{(t)}[/tex].

0.4713 grams would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation of decay:

The exponential equation for the amount of a substance that decays, after t days, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)*(1-r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

A tumor is injected with 0.52 grams of Iodine-125.

This means that [tex]A(0) = 0.52[/tex]

After 1 day, the amount of Iodine-125 has decreased by 1.15%.

This means that [tex]r = 0.0115[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)*(1-r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 0.52*(1-0.0115)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 0.52*(0.9885)^t[/tex]

Then use the formula for A(t) to find the amount of Iodine-125 that would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

This is A(8.5).

[tex]A(t) = 0.52*(0.9885)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(8.5) = 0.52*(0.9885)^{8.5} = 0.4713[/tex]

0.4713 grams would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

Seven more that twice a number is 25. What is the number?

Answers

Answer: Equation: 2n+7=25 Number: n=9

Step-by-step explanation: Twice a number is 2 × n= 2n. 7 more is +7. Hence we get 2n+7=25. Subtract 7 from both sides then divide by 2 and we get 9!

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Work backwards

25 - 7 = 18

18 ÷ 2 = 9

You can solve the problem normally to check.

9 × 2 = 18

18 + 7 = 25

That proves that the answer is right. Hope this helps you! Let me know how you did!

If we know that the dstubtion of arrivlal time can be modeled using an exponential distruibution with a mean of 4 minutes, find the probabiity that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the net sutedn to arrive at the library partking lot 0.606531

Answers

Answer:

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Which has the following solution:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

Mean of 4 minutes

This means that [tex]m = 4, \mu = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

Find the probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot:

This is:

[tex]P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X \leq 132) = 1 - e^{-0.25*132} = 1[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = 1 - e^{-0.25*2} = 0.393469[/tex]

[tex]P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2) = 1 - 0.393469 = 0.606531[/tex]

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

The law of large numbers tells us what happens in the long run. Like many games of chance, the numbers racket has outcomes so variable - one three-digit number wins $600 and all others win nothing - that gamblers never reach the long run. Even after many bets, their average winnings may not be close to the mean. For the numbers racket, the mean payout for single bets is $0.60 (60 cents) and the standard deviation of payouts is about $18.96. If Joe plays 350 days a year for 40 years, he makes 14,000 bets.

Required:
a. What is the mean of the average payout x that Joe receives from his 14,000 bets?
b. What is the standard deviation of the average payout x that Joe receives from his 14,000 bets?
c. What is the approximate probability that Joe's average payout per bet is between $0.50 and $0.70?

Answers

Answer: (a) The mean and standard deviation of the average payout  that Joe receives from his 14,000 bets are $0.60 and $0.1602 respectively.

(b) The probability that Joe's average payout per bet is between $0.50 and $0.70 is 0.4647.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = average payout of a bet.

The mean of the random variable X is, μ = $0.60.

The standard deviation of the random variable X is, σ = $18.96.

The number of total bets made is, n = 14000.

Since n = 14000 > 30, the Central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample mean.

Thus, the mean and standard deviation of the average payout  that Joe receives from his 14,000 bets are $0.60 and $0.1602 respectively.

Compute the probability that Joe's average payout per bet is between $0.50 and $0.70 as follows:

=P (-0.62 < Z < 0.62)

= P (Z < 0.62) - P(Z < -0.62)

= P (Z < 0.62) - [1-P (Z < 0.62)

= 2P (Z < 0.62) - 1

= (2 x 0.73237) - 1

= 0.46474

A fair spinner has the numbers 1-4. What is the theoretical probability of getting a 2

Answers

Answer:1-5

Step-by-step explanation:Assuming the spinner is numbered 1–5 and has an equal chance of landing on any number, you have two independent probabilities, each 1 in 5.

Just multiply those: 1/5 * 1/5 = 1/25. You have a 4% chance of getting 2 twice.

Of course, if there’s anything special about spinning “2”, you’ll be keyed to watch for it after getting 2 the first time. Now there’s a 20% chance (1 in 5) you’ll spin it again, and you’ll be very excited that you got 2 twice in a row. Another way of saying that is that the probability of something that has already happened is 100%.

Step-by-step explanation:

6). Surface area of a triangular prism = Area of the triangular bases + (Perimeter of the triangular base)×height

Area of one triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})[/tex]

                                              = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times 3[/tex]

                                              = 6 km²

Perimeter of the triangular base = (4 + 3 + 5)

                                                      = 12 km

Height of the triangular prism = 7 km

Surface area of the given triangular prism = 2(6) + (12)(7)

                                                                      = 12 + 84
