Exercise 2.64. On a test there are 20 true-or-false questions. For each problem the student (a) knows the answer with probability p,(b) thinks he knows the answer, but is wrong with probability q, (c) is aware of the fact that he does not know the answer with probability r. We assume that these happen independently for each question and that p+q+ r = 1. If the student doesn't know what to answer then he will guess by choosing true or false with probability 1/2-1/2. What is the probability that he will get the correct answer for at least 19 questions?

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
