Cobalt-60 is used for radiotherapy. It has a half-life of 5.26 years. If 4 g of cobalt-60 is administered, how much remains in 3 years? A. 1.2 g B. 2.7 g C. 3.3 g D. 2.1 g E. 0.2 g

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 2.7 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The half life of a substance is the time taken for the substance to reduce to half of its original amount. It is given by:

[tex]A=A_o*(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{t_{1/2}}\\ Where\ A\ is \ the \ amount \ of \ substance\ remaining\ after\ t\ years, \\A_o \ is \ the\ initial\ value\ of \ the\ substance,\ t_{1/2} is\ the\ half\ life\ and\\t\ is\ the\ years\ spent[/tex]

Given that:

Ao = 4 g, t = 3 years, t(1/2) = 5.26 years. Therefore:

[tex]A=A_o*(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{t_{1/2}}\\A=4*(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{3}{5.26}=4*0.6735=2.7\\ A=2.7\ g[/tex]

y is inversely proportional to x². When x=4, y=7.5 Find y when x=5 (i also forgot the symbol for directly and inversely proportional and i'm pretty sure there is one)

Answers

Answer:

y = 4.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is inversely proportional to x² then the equation relating them is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x^2}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition when x = 4, y = 7.5 , then

7.5 = [tex]\frac{k}{4^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{k}{16}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 16 )

k = 16 × 7.5 = 120

y = [tex]\frac{120}{x^2}[/tex] ← equation of proportion

When x = 5 , then

y = [tex]\frac{120}{5^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{120}{25}[/tex] = 4.8

Answers

Answer:

4x(x+2) - x(3x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of the whole box is 4x(x+2)

to find the area of the shaded portion you have to subtract the area of the tiny box from the big box

the area of the tiny box is x(3x+5)

Answers

Complex numbers are divided into two parts; real and imaginary parts. The value of Z3 is [tex]5+ 8i[/tex]

Given that:

[tex]Z_1 = 1 + 3i[/tex]

[tex]Z_2 = 4 + 5i[/tex]

Since O is the origin, then:

[tex]C = OA + OB[/tex]

This means that:

[tex]Z_3 = Z_1 + Z_2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Z_3 = 1 + 3i + 4 + 5i[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]Z_3 = 1 + 4+ 3i + 5i[/tex]

[tex]Z_3 = 5+ 8i[/tex]

Hence, complex number Z3 is [tex]5+ 8i[/tex]

Colin found 22 more mushrooms than Sophie did while they were out picking them in the forest. On the way home, Sophie asked Colin to give her some mushrooms so that they would have equal amounts. How many mushrooms should Colin give to Sophie?

Answers

Answer:

11 mushrooms

Step-by-step explanation:

If Colin has 22 more mushrooms than Sophie, then Sofie has 22 less. Half of 22 is 11, so Colin should have 11 less, and Sophie should have 11 more. If you plug a random value into Sophie's mushrooms, this should still work. For example, if Sophie has 2 mushrooms and Colin has 24, they'll both have 13.

ACME Hardware is introducing a new product called Greener Cleaner. Complete the table by finding the cost per milliliter for each size based on the sales price. One liter is 1,000 milliliters. (Answer the questions too, please!)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). 'Per ml' cost of the small size = [tex]\frac{\text{Sale price of small cane}}{\text{Amount of liquid}}[/tex]

                                                       = [tex]\frac{4.50}{250}[/tex]

                                                       = $0.018

'Per ml' cost of the medium size = [tex]\frac{\text{Sale price of medium cane}}{\text{Amount of liquid}}[/tex]

                                                        = [tex]\frac{9.95}{500}[/tex]

                                                        = $0.0199

     'Per ml' cost of the large size = [tex]\frac{\text{Sale price of large cane}}{\text{Amount of liquid}}[/tex]

                                                      = [tex]\frac{16.95}{1000}[/tex]

                                                      = $0.01695

Therefore, expression to compare per ml cost of three containers will be,

$0.0199 > $0.018 > $0.01695  

b). Least expensive way to buy the cleaner is to choose the container with least per ml cost.

Cost of 1500 ml cleaner = Cost of 1000 ml cleaner + Cost of 500 ml of cleaner

                                        = Cost of 1000 ml cleaner container + Cost of 'n' containers of 250 ml container

Total cost of 1500 ml = $16.95 + $4.50n

                                    = 16.95 + 2(4.5) [For n = 2]

                                    = $25.95

c). Most expensive way to purchase 1500 ml cleaner is to choose the most expensive cleaners

Cost of 1500 ml cleaner = Cost of 'n' containers of medium size containers

                                        = 9.95(n)

                                        = 9.95(3)

                                        = $29.85

Combine your expressions from part E (x+2) and part F (y+ (-4) to give the pair of coordinates of any point after a translation two yards East and four yards south.

Answers

Answer:

A'(5, 2), B'(5, -1), C'(6, -1), D'(6, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A transformation is the movement of a point from its initial position to a final position. If an object is transformed all its points are also transformed. Types of transformation are reflection, rotation, translation and dilation.

If a point O(x, y) is translated left by h unit, the new coordinate is O'(x-h, y) while if O(x, y) is translated right by h unit the new coordinate is O'(x+h, y)

If a point O(x, y) is translated up by h unit, the new coordinate is O'(x, y+h) while if O(x, y) is translated down by h unit the new coordinate is O'(x, y-h)

The location of the shape as shown in the diagram is:

A(3, 6), B(3, 3), C(4, 3), D(4, 6)

If the points are translated two yards East and four yards south, it means it is translated 2 unit right and 4 unit down i.e. (x+2, y-4). The new coordinates are:

A'(5, 2), B'(5, -1), C'(6, -1), D'(6, 2)

Answer:

ombining the expressions from parts E and F, for any given initial point (x, y), the coordinates of the new point after a translation of two yards east and four yards south are (x + 2, y + (-4)).

The quotient of  -4 /5 divide 2 would be equal to -2/5 in simplified form.

What are the Quotients?

Quotients are the number that is obtained by dividing one number by another number. We can use the fact that division can be taken as multiplication but with the denominator's multiplicative inverse.

We have been given that  -4 /5 divide 2

Thus, we have to divide the terms as;

-4 /5   ÷ 2

Therefore,  -4 /5 x 1/ 2

-2/5

Hence, the quotient of  -4 /5 divide 2 would be equal to -2/5 in simplified form.

Triangle H N K is shown. Angle H N K is 90 degrees. The length of hypotenuse H K is n, the length of H N is 12, and the length of N K is 6. Law of cosines: a2 = b2 + c2 – 2bccos(A) What is the value of n to the nearest whole number? 10 13 18 21

Answers

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given a triangle HNK with an angle of 90°

The length of hypotenuse H K is n,

the length of HN is 12

the length of N K is 6.

From the above values, obtained in the question, we can see that this is a right angled triangle.

We are asked to find the length of the hypotenuse.

We can use Pythagoras Theorem of solve for this.

c² = a² + b²

where c = HK = n

a = NK = 6

b = HN = 12

c² = 6² + 12²

c² = 36 + 144

c² = 180

c = √180

c = 13.416407865

Approximately to the nearest whole number = 13

Therefore the value of HK = n = 13

We can also use Law of Cosines as given in the question to solve for this.

a² = b² + c² - 2ac × Cos A

where c = HK = n

a = NK = 6

b = HN = 12

Hence

c² = a² + b² - 2ab × Cos C

c = √ (a² + b² - 2ab × Cos C)

Where C = 90

c = √ 6² + 12² - 2 × 6 × 12 × Cos 90

c = 13.42

Approximately to the nearest whole number ≈ 13

Therefore the value of HK = n = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

We get 12.198 after rounding it to the nearest thousandth.

How to round off decimal places?

The rounding off decimal places is similar to the basic round-off. We check the previous number. If it is greater than or equal to 5, we increase the value up to which we are rounding by 1, or else keep it the same when the previous digit is less than 5.

The order of digits for decimal places is opposite to the normal number system.

In the number system we have units place, then tens place, then hundreds place, then thousands place, and like that.

In the decimal number system, we start from the highest and go on decreasing.

The first decimal place is the tenth place.

The second decimal place is the hundredth place.

The third decimal place is the thousandth place.

And so on.

How to solve the question?

In the question, we are asked to round 12.1975 to the nearest thousandth.

As discussed above, the nearest thousandth means rounding off up to the third decimal place.

So we round off 12.1975 up to the third decimal place, that is, we round off up to 7.

The next digit is 5, so we increase 7 by 1 to 8.

Thus, we get 12.198 after rounding it to the nearest thousandth.
