Determine if the equation x^2-y=1 defines y as a function of x

The rate of decay of a radioactive substance depends upon the amount present initially. the mass y (mg) of the radioactive substance cobalt-60 present in a sample at time t (years) is represented by the exponential equation y=50e −0.1315 t . answer the following questions in complete sentences. 1. how does the exponential equation above compare to the equation for simple interest that is compounded continuously? explain the similarities. 2. what is the initial amount of cobalt-60 in the sample? 2. how much cobalt-60 is left after 8.4 years? show your work. 3. what would be the y-intercept of the graph? what does it represent? 4. after how many years will the amount of cobalt-60 left be 6.25 mg? explain what happens to the cobalt-60 after 50 years? 5. discuss some “real-world” examples and uses of cobalt-60

Astudent draws two parabolas on graph paper. both parabolas cross the x-axis at (-4, 0) and (6,0). the y-intercept of thefirst parabola is (0, –12). the y-intercept of the second parabola is (0-24). what is the positive difference between the avalues for the two functions that describe the parabolas? write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.

Helll ! 1,400 tons of wheat of two different varieties was delivered to the silo. when processing one variety, there was 2% of waste and 3% during the processing of the second variety of wheat. after the processing, the amount of remaining wheat was 1,364 tons. how many tons of each variety of wheat was delivered to the silo?
