The half-life a particular radioactive substance is 6 seconds. If you started with 50 grams of this substance, how much of it would remain after 30 seconds?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5625g would remain after 30 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

When we talk about half life, we are talking about the time taken for exactly half of the mass of the radioactive mass in question to have disintegrated.

More like, the amount of time it takes for the radioactive mass to have lost exactly half of its mass

Now, the half life of the substance in question is 6 seconds and we have to calculate the mass that would remain after 30 seconds. What this means is that we would have a disintegration of 5 times, meaning 5 half lives.

Since it is just 5 half lives, we can proceed manually

In the first, we shall have 25g left

in the second, we shall have 12.5g left

In the third, we shall have 6.25g left

In fourth, we shall have have 3.125g left

and finally, in the fifth, we shall have 1.5625g

If you add the digits in a two-digit number and multiply the sum by 7, you get the original number. If you reverse the digits in the two-digit
number, the new number is 18 more than the sum of its two digits. What is the original number?
O A 42
B. 24
C. 64
D.46
E.36

Answers

Answer: A - 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= ones digit, y=tens digit

1st (original number) :

7(x+y)=10y + x

2nd (new number by reversing the digits): 18+x+y=10x+y

simplifying:

1st condition: 6x=3y

2nd condition: x=2

substituting x=2 to 6x=3y

y=4

There are 350 Families lives in the small town of America. A poll of 50 families revealed the mean annual church contribution is $550 with the standard deviation of $ 75.Construct the 95% confidence interval for the mean annual contribution

Answers

Answer:

$550+/-$20.79

= ( $529.21, $570.79)

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval (a,b) = ( $529.21, $570.79)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $550

Standard deviation r = $75

Number of samples n = 50

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

$550+/-1.96($75/√50)

$550+/-1.96($10.60660171779)

$550+/-$20.7889393668

$550+/-$20.79

= ( $529.21, $570.79)

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval (a,b) = ( $529.21, $570.79)

If (x - 1)/x = 20, then x =
O a. -21
O b.-19
c. -1/19
O d.-1/21

Answers

Answer:

-1/19 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 1)/x = 20

Multiply each side by x

(x - 1)/x *x = 20*x

x-1 = 20x

Subtract x from each side

x-1-x = 20x-x

-1 = 19x

Divide each side by 19

find the value of x​

Answers

Answer:

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the image attatched. I have labeled the angles for better explanation.

We know that angle 1 is 54 degrees as is rests on a straight line with its adjacent angle at 126 degrees. This means that angle 1 would be 180 - 126 degrees, or 54 degrees. We also know that angle 1 and 3 must be congruent as the sides of the triangle opposite those angles are congruent as well. This means that both those angles are 54 degrees. Since the sum of all angles in a triangle must equal 180 degrees, we can get that angle 4 is 180 - (2*54) degrees, or 72. Since angle two and angle 4 both lie on a straight line, they must add up to 180 degrees. This means that the value of angle 2 would be 180 - 72, or 108 degrees. Since angle 2 is also equal to x+122, we get the equation:

108 = x + 122.

We then solve this by getting:

x = 108 - 122

which gives us the answer of

x = -14

Answer: x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Top triangle, top angle: Using the Linear Pair Postulate, 180° - 126° = 54°

b) Top triangle, bottom left angle: Congruent sides implies congruent angles = 54°

c) Bottom triangle, top left angle: Using the Complimentary Angles Postulate, 90° - 54° = 36°

d) Bottom triangle, bottom angle: Congruent sides implies congruent angles = 36°

Triangle Sum Theorem states that the sum of the three angles must equal 180°.

36° + ∠2 + 36° = 180°

36° + (x + 22) + 36° = 180°

x + 194 = 180

         x = -14

Ekon get?

(Solve using systems of linear equation)​

Answers

Answer:

8 nickels and 18 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations:

n + d = 26

5n +10d = 220

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -5. This gives you:

-5n -5d = -130

5n +10d = 220

Then solve to get 5d= 90, then d= 18.

Then plug 18 for d in the equation n + d= 26, so n + 18= 26

n= 8
