After releasing of radioactive material into.The atnosphere from.A nuclear.Powe plant in a country in 1988, the hay in that country was contaminayed by radioactive.Isotope remains, how long did the famers need to.Wait to use this hay

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere  from a nuclear power plant, the hay was contaminated by iodine  131 ( half-life, 8 days). If it is all right to feed the hay to cows  when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers  need to wait to use this hay?

iodine's half life (we are given x, we need to find b):

0.5A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

x = 8 days

we eliminate A₀ from both sides

0.5 = eᵇ⁸

ln 0.5 = ln eᵇ⁸

-0.69315 = b8

b = -0.69315 / 8 = -0.08664

since the farmers need to wait until only 10% of the iodine remains (we already calculated b, now we need to find x):

0.1A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

0.1 = eᵇˣ

ln 0.1 = bx

where b = -0.08664

x = ln 0.1 / -0.08664  = -2.302585 / -0.08664  = 26.58 days

A gardener is planting two types of trees: Type A is 10 feet tall and grows at a rate of 19 inches per year. Type B is 4 feet tall and grows at a rate of 25 inches per year. Algebraically determine exactly how many years it will take for these trees to be the same height.

Answers

Answer:

It'll take 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Type A:

[tex]Initial\ Height = 10ft[/tex]

[tex]Growth = 19in[/tex]

Type B:

[tex]Initial\ Height = 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Growth = 25in[/tex]

Required

Determine the years they'll reach the same height

First, convert feet to inches in both measurements (this is done by multiplying measurement by 12):

Type A:

[tex]Initial\ Height = 10ft[/tex]

[tex]Initial\ Height = 10 * 12in[/tex]

[tex]Initial\ Height = 120in[/tex]

Type B:

[tex]Initial\ Height = 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Initial\ Height = 4 * 12in[/tex]

[tex]Initial\ Height = 48in[/tex]

The height at any year from both trees is calculated using

[tex]Height = Iniital\ Height + Growth * x[/tex]

Where x represents the year;

For Type A:

[tex]Height = 120+ 19 * x[/tex]

[tex]Height = 120+ 19x[/tex]

For Type B:

[tex]Height = 48+ 25 * x[/tex]

[tex]Height = 48+ 25x[/tex]

To get when their height will be equal, we simply equate both expressions:

[tex]48+ 25x = 120 + 19x[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]25x - 19x= 120 - 48[/tex]

[tex]6x= 72[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = 72/6[/tex]

[tex]x = 12[/tex]

Hence, It'll take 12 years

Jessica wants to spend less than $50.00 per month on her cell phone bill. Write an inequality that shows how many text messages Jessica must limit herself to in order to keep her monthly bill less than $50.00. Use the symbol for your inequality.

Answers

Missing part of question:

Jessica pays a flat rate of $20 for her cell phone and is charged $0.05 for every text she sends.

Answer:

20.00 + 0.05x < 50.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base Amount = $20

Rate = $0.05 per text

Budget = Less than $50.00

Required

Write an inequality that represents the scenario

Let x represents the number of texts

To solve this, the base amount when added to the amount paid for x text must be LESS THAN Jessica's budget.

Mathematically, we have:

Base Amount + Rate * x < Budget

Substitute values for Base Amount, Rate and Budget, this gives:.

20.00 + 0.05 * x < 50.00

20.00 + 0.05x < 50.00

Hence, the inequality that represents the scenario is 20.00 + 0.05x < 50.00

Solving further for x, we have:

20.00 + 0.05x < 50.00

Collect Like Terms

0.05x < 50.00 - 20.00

0.05x < 30.00

Solve for x

x < 30.00/0.05

x < 600

This means that she must send less than 600 text messages.

The angle of elevation of top of a tower from a point on the ground, which is 30 m away from the foot of the tower is 30°. The length of the tower is a.√3 m b.2√3 m c.5√3m d.10√3 m

Answers

Answer: d

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the distance to the tower and the height of the tower create a right triangle at the base of the tower.  The equation to find the height of a right triangle is to multiply the length times the tangent of angle β.

Given:

b = a · tanβ

tan(30°) = √3/3

Step 1:  Solve

b = (30/1) · (√3/3)

b = (30 · √3) / (1 · 3)

b = (30√3) / (3)

b = 10√3

The nth term of an AP is 12-4n. Find the first term and the common difference.

Answers

Answer:

first term is 8 and common difference d is -4

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term of an arithmetic sequence is: aₙ=12-4n

First term is putting n=1:

aₙ=12-4n

a₁=12-4(1)

a₁=12-4

a₁=8

So, first term a₁= 8

Now finding second term to find common difference

Second term is: n=2

aₙ=12-4n

a₂=12-4(2)

a₂=12-8

a₂=4

So, second term is: 4

The common difference is: a₂-a₁= 4-8 = -4

So, first term is 8 and common difference d is -4 if nth term is 12-4n
