Element X decays radioactively with a half life of 9 minutes. If there are 610grams of
Element X, how long, to the nearest tenth of a minute, would it take the element to
decay to 124 grams?
y = a(.5) t/h

Answers

Answer 1

A half-life of 9 minutes corresponds to a decay factor k such that

[tex]\dfrac12=e^{9k}\implies k=-\dfrac19\ln\left(\dfrac12\right)[/tex]

Then the time it takes for the substance to decay from 610 g to 124 g is time t such that

[tex]124\,\mathrm g=(610\,\mathrm g)e^{kt}[/tex]

Solve for t :

[tex]\dfrac{62}{305}=e^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]\ln\left(\dfrac{62}{305}\right)=kt[/tex]

[tex]t=\dfrac1k\ln\left(\dfrac{62}{305}\right)\approx20.686[/tex]

so it takes about 20.7 min for the 610 g sample to decay down to 124 g.

indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given points, in the equation box below. X(0, 6), Y(5, 6)

Answers

Answer:

0x + y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the Line

The equation of a line passing through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be written as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

It can be later converted to any other form of the line. For example, the standard form is:

[tex]Ax + By = C[/tex]

Let's find the equation by using the given points (0,6) (5,6):

[tex]\displaystyle y-6=\frac{6-6}{5-0}(x-0)[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]\displaystyle y-6=\frac{0}{5-0}(x-0)[/tex]

y - 6 = 0

Or, equivalently:

0x + y = 6

This corresponds to a horizontal line

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, so the slope will be -3.

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b

y = mx + b

-5 = -3(2) + b

-5 = -6 + b

1 = b

Then, plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b again:

y = -3x + 1 will be the equation of the line

Answers

Answer:

The factorization of [tex]5x^2-14x+8[/tex] is (5x-4)(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic polynomial is:

[tex]5x^2-14x+8[/tex]

To factor a quadratic polynomial with leading co-efficient has to be factorized, the leading co-efficient and the constant are multiplied and pairs(a,b) of the product are made so that their sum or subtraction is equal to the co-efficient of x

We get 40 by multiplying 8 and 5

And the pair we get are: 10 and 4

[tex]=5x^2-10x-4x+8\\=5x(x-2)-4(x-2)\\=(5x-4)(x-2)[/tex]

Hence,

The factorization of [tex]5x^2-14x+8[/tex] is (5x-4)(x-2)

Martina ordered a set of blue and orange pins. She received 96 pins in all. 24 of the pins were
blue. What percentage of the pins were blue?
Write your answer using a percent sign (%).

Answers

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is like a part over whole problem, where 24 blue pens is the part and 96 pens total is the whole.

24/96 = 0.25 * 100 = 25%

Answer:

Of the 96 pins, 25% of the pins were blue.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Martina ordered 96 pins in total. We are also given that she ordered 24 blue pins.

With this, we can determine how many of the pins were not blue pins by subtracting the amount of blue pins from the number of total pins.

[tex]96 \ \text{total pins} - 24 \ \text{blue pins} = 72 \ \text{orange pins}[/tex]

Now, we can divide the number of blue pins by the number of total pins to determine the fraction of blue pins to total pins.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{24}{96} = \frac{12}{48} = \frac{6}{24} = \frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Then, we can convert our fraction to a decimal.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

And finally, we can convert our decimal to a percentage by multiplying the determined decimal by 100.

[tex]0.25\times100 = 25\%[/tex]

Therefore, of the 96 pins that Martina ordered, 25% of them were blue.

Solve for x:

100x + 3000 = 70x + 5400

30x + 3000 = 5400

30x = 2400

x = 80

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation;

3(x-2) = 4

A sequence of steps for solving the equation is as shown;

Step 1: Open the parenthesis by applying distributive law to distribute 3 over x and 2 as shown;

3(x-2) = 4

3(x)- 3(2) = 4

3x - 6 = 4

Step 2: Add 6 to both sides of the equation (Addition property)

3x-6+6 = 4+6

3x = 10

Step 3: Division property of equality. Divide both sides by 3;

3x = 10

3x/3 = 10/3

x = 10/3
