Answer:
Ending Amount = beginning amount / 2^n where "n" is the number of half-lives or elapsed time / half-life
For this problem "n" = 25 / 11 = 2.2727272727
Ending Amount = 60 grams / 2^2.2727272
Ending Amount = 60 / 4.832357534
Ending Amount = 12.4162998242 grams

A radionuclide is a nuclide with excessive nuclear energy, which makes it unstable. The element would remain after 25 years, to the nearest whole number is 2 grams.
What is a radioactive isotope?A radionuclide is a nuclide with excessive nuclear energy, which makes it unstable. This surplus energy can be discharged as gamma radiation from the nucleus, transferred to one of its electrons and released as a conversion electron, or used to generate and produce a new particle from the nucleus.
Given the life of radioactive material is stated by the formula,
[tex]N_t = N_o e^{-\lambda t}[/tex]
Now, given the half-life of the comes in 11 years, therefore, the rate of decay will be,
[tex]N_t = N_o e^{-\lambda t}\\\\\dfrac{N_t}{ N_o }=e^{-\lambda t}\\\\0.5 = e^{-\lambda \times 11}\\\\\dfrac{ln(0.5)}{11}=\lambda[/tex]
λ = 0.14631
Given the initial mass is 60 grams, therefore, the amount that will be remaining after 25 years will be,
[tex]N_{25} = 60 \times e^{(-0.14631\times 25)}\\\\N = 1.5474\rm\ grams \approx 2\ grams[/tex]
Hence, the element would remain after 25 years, to the nearest whole number is 2 grams.

Find the measurement indicated in each parallelogram.
1)
с
40°
D
E
Answer:
D=40
C=140
E=140
Step-by-step explanation:
opposite angles are congruent in parallelograms, so D is equal to 40. Also, the interior angles of any quadrilateral always equal 360, and because there are only 2 angles left that we don't know what they equal, if we add 40 to 40, which equals 80, and then subtract 80 from 360, we get 280, which we then divide by 2, to get 140 for C and E.

1) Una bicicleta circula en línea recta a una
velocidad de 15km/h durante 45 minutos. ¿Qué
distancia recorre?
Answer:
the distance covered is 11.25 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
The speed of the bicycle is 15 km/h
And, the time taken of the bicycle is 45 minutes
We need to determine the distance covered
As we know that
Speed = Distance ÷ Time
So, distance = Speed × time
= 15 km /h × 0.75 hours
= 11.25 km
The 0.75 hours come from
= 45 minutes ÷ 60 minutes
= 0.75 hours
Hence, the distance covered is 11.25 km

Answer:
156.9
Step-by-step explanation:
∠x=4(∠y)
Angles in a triangle add to 180:
∠x+∠y+90=180
4(∠y)+∠y=90
5(∠y)=90
∠y=18
The left side of the parallelogram is opposite ∠y, which we know, and we know the adjacent (marked as 57) so we can use tan:
tanA=opposite/adjacent
tan18=(side)/57
side=18.5204226853
Similarly, we can find the base of the shape using cos:
cosA=adjacent/hypotenuse
cos18=57/(base)
base=59.9333467816
Perimeter = 2(side)+2(base)
=2(18.5204226853)+2(59.9333467816)
=37.0408453706+119.866693563
=156.907538934

Answer:
3. X = (-4, -5), Y = (0, -3), Z = (-1, -7)
4. Refer back to my explanation.
5. a. Refer back to my explanation.
5. b. 28 units^2; please solve for the other rectangle.
5. c. No, because translation means moving the figure, not changing the shape or size.
Step-by-step explanation:
Warning in advance: the picture is very blurry when looking at the numbers on the graph so I have tried my best to decipher them.
3.
First, write down the ordered pairs for X, Y, and Z.
X = (-1, 4)
Y = (3, 6)
Z = (2, 2)
Note that horizontal movement (moving left or right) affects only the x coordinate. If you are moving to the left, you will subtract from the x coordinate. If you are moving to the right, you will add to the x coordinate.
Vertical movement (moving up or down) affects only the y coordinate. If you are moving up, you will add to the y coordinate. If you are moving down, you will subtract from the y coordinate.
Apply this concept to the ordered pairs:
Moving left = subtraction from x coordinate
Moving down = subtraction from y coordinate
X2 = (-1 - 3, 4 - 9) = (-4, -5)
Y2 = (3 - 3, 6 - 9) = (0, -3)
Z2 = (2 - 3, 2 - 9) = (-1, -7)
Your new image should have X at (-4, -5), Y at (0, -3), and Z at (-1, -7).
4.
After reading the concepts and seeing my explanation and demonstration, please try number 4 on your own. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me for help.
5. a.
The same goes for this problem since it is the same concept.
5. b.
To find the area of a rectangle, use the equation length × width, also known as l × w. In order to figure out what the length and width are equal to, count the units on the graph. JK is 7 units wide. Since this is a rectangle, ML will be the same width, 7 units. KL is 4 units long so JM will also be 4 units long. Now that we know the number of units, we can plug the numbers into the formula:
4 units × 7 units = 28 units^2
The question asks to solve for the area of each rectangle so please try the same for the rectangle you create from problem 5. a.
5. c.
The area of a figure will not change after translation because translation does not affect the figure's size or shape. If the figure is only moved, then no part of its area is changed so no, the area of a figure will not change.
a lorry is travelling at 13.5m/s along a stretch of road
Answer:
Proved
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is incomplete. The complete details are:
[tex]v = 13.5m/s[/tex] --- speed of the lorry
[tex]v_2 =50km/h[/tex] --- speed limit on the road
Required
Prove that the lorry is within the speed limit
To do this, we simply convert the speed of the lorry to km/h.
So, we have:
[tex]v = 13.5m/s[/tex]
[tex]1m = 0.001km[/tex]
and
[tex]1s = \frac{1}{3600}h[/tex]
So, the expression becomes:
[tex]v = \frac{13.5 * 0.001km}{1/3600h}[/tex]
[tex]v = \frac{0.0135km}{1/3600h}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]v = 0.0135km/h * 3600[/tex]
[tex]v = 48.6km/h[/tex]
48.6km/h is less than 50km/h (the speed limit).
Hence, the lorry is within the speed limit.

Chauncey is building a storage bench for his son’s playroom. The storage bench will fit into the corner and against two walls to form a triangle. Chauncey wants to buy a triangular shaped cover for the bench.
Formula for Area of Triangle:
A = ½ x b x h
(the photo is below)
If the base of the storage bench is 2 ½ ft. and the height along one side of the wall is 4 ½ ft. What is the area of the triangular cover?
Answer:
2.5 times 4.5 times .5 = 5.625 ft squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets look at our Formula
.5 times base of triangle (b) times height of triangle (h)
Based on the photo, the height is 4.5 feet and the base is 2.5 feet.
4.5 times 2.5 times .5 (the 1/2 in the formula) = 5.625 ft squared.
Remember that it is 1/2 times the base and height, b/c triangle is half of square. Ft squared because ft times ft equals ft squared

find a20 of a geometric sequence of the first few terms of the sequence given by -1/2;1/4;-1/8;1/16
Answer:
[tex]a_{20} = 1/1048576[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Sequence: -1/2;1/4;-1/8;1/16[/tex]
Required
Determine [tex]a_{20[/tex]
Since it is a geometric sequence, first we need to calculate the common ratio (r)
[tex]r = \frac{a_2}{a_1}[/tex]
From the sequence:
[tex]a_2 = 1/4[/tex]
[tex]a_1 = -1/2[/tex]
[tex]a_1[/tex] is the same as [tex]a[/tex]
So:
[tex]r = \frac{a_2}{a_1}[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{1/4}{-1/2}[/tex]
[tex]r = -1/2[/tex]
[tex]a_{20[/tex] is then calculated as:
[tex]a_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex]
Where
[tex]n = 20[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = ar^{20-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = ar^{19}[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = (-1/2) * (-1/2)^{19}[/tex]
Apply law of indices
[tex]a_{20} = (-1/2)^{1+19}[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = (-1/2)^{20}[/tex]
Evaluate the exponent
[tex]a_{20} = 1/1048576[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is 5 less than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 52 ft^2. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
6.5 ft wide by 8 ft long
Step-by-step explanation:
We can let x represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is ...
L = 2x -5
and the area is ...
A = LW = (2x -5)(x) = 52
2x² -5x -52 = 0 . . . . . put in standard form
(2x -13)(x +4) = 0 . . . . factor
x = 6.5, -4 . . . . . . . . . . values that make the factors zero
The length is then ...
L = A/W = 52/6.5 = 8
or
L = 2W -5 = 2(6.5) -5 = 13 -5 = 8
The rectangle is 6.5 feet wide and 8 feet long.

The 95% Confidence Interval is ($, $ )
Answer:
at 95%, confidence interval is ( $43312, $54288 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
sample size n = 36
mean x' = 48,800
standard deviation σ = 16,800
at 95% confidence level;
∝ = 1 - 95% = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
∝/2 = 0.05 / 2 = 0.025
z critical value, [tex]Z_{\alpha/2[/tex] = 1.96
now, confidence interval for population mean is given by the formula
x' ± [tex]Z_{\alpha/2[/tex]( σ/√n )
so we substitute
⇒ 48800 ± 1.96( 16800/√36 )
⇒ 48800 ± 1.96( 2800 )
⇒ 48800 ± 5488
⇒ 48800 - 5488, 48800 + 5488
⇒ ( 43312, 54288 )
Therefore, at 95%, confidence interval is ( $43312, $54288 )
