If a radioactive isotope has a half-life of 6 hours and 12 milligrams is initially present, how much will
be present in 24 hours?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:0.75 milligrams will  be present in 24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

The formula for radioactive decay can be written as

N(t)=No (1/2)^(t/t 1/2)

where

No= The amount of the radioactive substance at time=0=milligrams

t 1/2= the half-life= 6 hours

t=24 hours

N(t) = the amount at time t

Step 2--- Solving

N(t)=No (1/2)^(t/t 1/2)

=N(t)=12 x ( 1/2) ^ (24/6)

= 12 x (1/2) ^4

= 12 x 0.0625

= 0.75 milligrams

Find the solution of the system of equations
shown on the graph.

Answers

Answer:

(0,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When a system of equations is graphed, the point at which the lines intersect is a solution to the system. Looking at the graph, we can see that the lines intersect at (0,6). Therefore, (0,6) is a solution to the system of equations.

What is the interval notation for the compound inequality? x≤−4 or x≥5
(−∞, −4) or (5, ∞)
(−∞, −4] or [5, ∞)
(−4,5)
[−4,5]

Answers

Answer:

(-∞, -4] or [5, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the solutions for x can also be equal to -4 and 5, brackets are used.

And because the solutions for x can be any number less than -4 or any number greater than 5, -∞ and ∞ are used respectively.

A line is perpendicular to y = 3x - 8
and intersects the point (2,2).
What is the equation of this
perpendicular line?

Answers

Since the line is perpendicular, we know that the slope is reciprocal and negative to the other one.

So,

y = -4x + b

We want to find the y-intersect (b) so substitute the intersected points and solve for it.

2 = -4(2) + b

2 = -8 + b

2 + 8 = b

10 = b

So the complete equation would be:

y = -4x + 10

Help me on this math problem please! I’ve been stuck on it for 15 mins now

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = perimeter = 114

P =2 * length +2* width

P = 2(2x - 3) + 2(x)

114 =  4x-6  + 2x

114 = 6x -6

19 = x -1

20 = x

check it  

2( 2x -3)+2x =  ?  

4x -6 +2x=?

6x -6 = ?

6(20)-6 =?

120-6 = 114

Consider the following triangle side lengths and determine if the triangle could exist. Justify your answer. Part A: 21,18,17 Part B: 3,12,8

Answers

Answer:

A yes, B no

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle inequality states that the sum of any 2 sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side.

A Given 21, 18, 17 , then

21 + 18 = 39 > 17

21 + 17 = 38 > 18

18 + 17 = 35 > 21

Thus the triangle could exist

B Given 3, 12, 8 , then

3 + 12 = 9 > 8

3 + 8 = 11 < 12 ← fails the test

Thus the triangle does not exist

y intercept = -10/3

Answer:

strategy:  put this equation into slope intercept form  y = mx + b

then it is easier to find x and y intercepts

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3y=10

5x-10=3y

5/3x - 10/3 = y

y = 5/3x - 10/3

when x is zero then y is - 10/3, that's the  y intercept

when y is zero then x is 2,  that's the x intercept

A classroom is 11 m long, 8 m wide and 5.5 m high Find the sum of the areas of the four walls.
( please show the working out pleaseee)​

Answers

Answer:

209 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The class room has a measurement of 11 m long, 8 m wide and 5.5 m high. Hence the walls of the classroom would be 4, with the following measurements.

Wall 1: 11 m by 5.5 m, Wall 2: 8 m by 5.5 m, Wall 3: 11 m by 5.5 m and Wall 4: 8 m by 5.5 m

The area of wall 1 = 11 m * 5.5 m = 60.5 m²

The area of wall 2 = 8 m * 5.5 m = 44 m²

The area of wall 3 = 11 m * 5.5 m = 60.5 m²

The area of wall 4 = 11 m * 5.5 m = 44 m²

The sum of areas of the fall wall = area of wall 1 + area of wall 2 + area of wall 3 + area of wall 4

The sum of areas of the fall wall = 60.5 + 44 + 60.5 + 44 = 209 m²
