A company prices its tornado insurance using the following assumptions: • In any calendar year, there can be at most one tornado.
• In any calendar year, the probability of a tornado is 0.12.
• The number of tornadoes in any calendar year is independent of the number of tornados in any other calendar year.
Using the company's assumptions, calculate the probability that there are fewer than 4 tornadoes in a 11-year period.

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
