Use the exponential decay model, \( A=A_{0} e^{\mathrm{kt}} \), to solve the following. The half-life of a certain substance is 22 years. How long will it take for a sample of this substance to decay to \( 90 \% \) of its original amount? It will take approximately \( \square \) (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

(a) Express the distance \( d \) from \( P \) to the origin as a function of \( x \). \( d(x)=\sqrt{x^{4}-3 x^{2}+4} \) (Simplify your answer. Type an exact answer, using radicals as needed.) (b) What is \( d \) if \( x=0 \) ? If \( x=0 \), the distance \( d \) is 2 . (Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal placels as needed.) (c) What is \( d \) if \( x=1 \) ? If \( x=1 \), the distance \( d \) is \( \square \). (Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.)

Given the function with the equation \( k(x)=\frac{-6}{x+2}-2 \) : 7.1 Write the equations of the asymptotes of \( k \). 7.2 Give the range of \( k \). 7.3 Give the domain of \( k \). 7.4 Drite the equation of the axis of symmetry, with a positive gradient. 7.5 If \( k \) is reflected over the \( x \)-axis and shifted upwards by 2 units, 7.6 give the equation of the new function, \( j(x) \), after the transformations. 7.7 In which quadrant(s) would the arms of \( k \) not be if it was sketched?

Clearly indicate all intercepts with the axes as well as the QUESTION 7 Given the function with the equation \( k(x)=\frac{-6}{x+2}-2 \) : 7.1 Write the equations of the asymptotes of \( k \). 7.2 Give the range of \( k \). 7.3 Give the domain of \( k \).
