the half-life of radium-224 is approximately 3.66 days. How much of a 5-gram sample of radium-224 would remain after 9 days? Round to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5×0.5^(9/3.66) = 0.9 gram

Answer 2

0.9 gm of radium-224 would remain after 9 days.

What is Half life?

A radionuclide's half-life is the amount of time it takes for half of its radioactive atoms to decay. A good rule of thumb is that you will have less radiation than 1% of the original amount after seven half-lives.

We have,

The half-life of radium-224 is approximately 3.66 days.

Amount of radium- 224 to be decayed= 5 gm

So, the amount of radius-224 that remained after 9 days are

= 5 × [tex]0.5^{(9/3.66)[/tex]

= 5 x 0.1818

= 0.9 gram

Thus, the remaining amount is 0.9 gm.

What is the answer to this question? 4w+8=6w-4

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps

Explanation: For this question you’ll be combining each side.

4w+8=6w-4

1. You’ll want to do the opposite of what your factor already is so, positive 4w will become -4w. Subtract 4 from 4, subtract 4 from six and you now have 2w.

2. Next, you’ll need to rewrite your new equation (8+2w-4) mind you *4 is cancelled out since we subtracted it from itself*.

3. Add four on each side now, so you’ll have (12+2w) and no more 4 because we ADDED to the variant.

4. Last but not least, you’ll want to divide each side, but only BY the variable. So it would be 12/2 and 2/2, and you get your answer ..

A researcher wants to estimate the percentage of all adults that have used the Internet to seek pre-purchase information in the past 30 days, with an allowable sampling error (E) of 0.03 and a confidence level of 99.74%. Of secondary data indicated that 25% of all adults had used the Internet for such a purpose, what is the sample size

Answers

Answer:

The sample size is 1875.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

Sampling error of 0.03.

This means that [tex]M = 0.03[/tex]

99.74% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.0026[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.0026}{2} = 0.9987[/tex], so [tex]Z = 3[/tex].

25% of all adults had used the Internet for such a purpose

This means that [tex]\pi = 0.25[/tex]

What is the sample size

The sample size is n. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.03 = 3\sqrt{\frac{0.25*0.75}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.03\sqrt{n} = 3\sqrt{0.25*0.75}[/tex]

Simplifying by 0.03 both sides

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 100\sqrt{0.25*0.75}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (100\sqrt{0.25*0.75})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 1875[/tex]

The sample size is 1875.

Elementary school A has implemented an after-school sports program and the principal would like to know if the participants of the sports program are becoming more active in general, compared to students who are not participating in the program. So the principal collected data on overall physical activities throughout the week from a group of the sports program participants and a group of school A students not in the program. The most appropriate statistical test for data analysis would be:_______.
A. Paired-samples t test
B. Independent-samples t test
C. Pearson's correlation
D. One-sample t test

Answers

Answer:

B. Independent-samples t test

Step-by-step explanation:

The test here is to find out if the participants of the sports program are becoming more active in general when compared to students who are not participating in the program.

Now, this will involve taking sample from the two independent groups to determine if there is statistical evidence that one is more active than the other.

Thus, the best test to use in this case will be the Independent-samples t test

Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of 5 cm/s. At what rate (in cm2/s) is the area of the square increasing when the area of the square is 49 cm2

Answers

Answer:

25 cm^2/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

I my understanding of the question.  It doesn't matter what the area of the square is currently is, for example if the area is 25 cm^2, 36 cm^2 or 49cm^2, the rate will ALWAYS increase by rate squared.

      rate(a)  x  rate(b)  =  rate(area)           in this case rate(a) = rate(b)

        (5 cm^2/s) (5 cm^2/s)  = 25 cm^2/s
