If you start with 85 milligrams of Chromium 51, used to track red blood cells, which
has a half-life of 27.7 days.
How long will it take for 90% of the material to decay?

Answers

Answer 1

About 92 days are taken for 90 % of the material to decay.

The mass of radioisotopes ([tex]m[/tex]), measured in milligrams, decreases exponentially in time ([tex]t[/tex]), measured in days. The model that represents such decrease is described below:

[tex]m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]m_{o}[/tex] - Initial mass, in milligrams.[tex]m(t)[/tex] - Current mass, in milligrams.[tex]\tau[/tex] - Time constant, in days.

In addition, the time constant is defined in terms of half-life ([tex]t_{1/2}[/tex]), in days:

[tex]\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln 2}[/tex] (2)

If we know that [tex]m_{o} = 85\,mg[/tex], [tex]t_{1/2} = 27.7\,d[/tex] and [tex]m(t) = 8.5\,mg[/tex], then the time required for decaying is:

[tex]\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln 2}[/tex]

[tex]\tau = \frac{27.7\,d}{\ln 2}[/tex]

[tex]\tau \approx 39.963\,d[/tex]

[tex]t = -\tau \cdot \ln \frac{m(t)}{m_{o}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -(39.963\,d)\cdot \ln \frac{8.5\,mg}{85\,mg}[/tex]

[tex]t\approx 92.018\,d[/tex]

About 92 days are taken for 90 % of the material to decay.

"The hourly wage increase each employee receives each year depends on their number of years of service. Every three years of service means an increase of $0.50 per hour. So, employees that have been with the company for less than three years can expect to receive an increase of $0.50 per hour. Employees that have been with the company for at least three years, but less than six years can expect an increase of $1.00. Employees that have been with the company for at six years, but less than nine years, receive an increase of $1.50 per hour. And, employees of at least nine years, but less than twelve years receive an increase of $2.00. Write a function to represent this scenario.

Which graph represents this wage increase for x < 12?"

-normally I'd just double-check this but. . . you get it.

Answers

Red dots are starting co-ordinates and whites are ending co-ordinates .

So the graph must have red dots at the start of line and not mandatory for at the end of line.

x<12

It should not be at end

Check option B

x ends at first point .

And also the interval is 2

so Option B is correct

The place value of 2 will be 100 times greater than before.

What is place value?

Place value is a numerical value that every digit in a number has based on its position.

For example; in a number 2398, the place value of 3 is 300, as it is placed at hundredth place.

Given that, A whole number has a 2 in the tens place. If the 2 were moved from the tens place to the thousands place,

At tens place, the value of a number will multiplied by 10 as it is at tenth place,

At tens place = 20

Similarly,

At thousand place, the value of a number will multiplied by 100 as it is at thousand place,

At thousand place = 2000

2000 / 20 = 100

Hence, the value of 2 will be 100 times greater than before.

Sam is 4 years younger than Linda. The sum of their ages is 28. Find both Sam and Linda’s age and show your work.

Answers

Answer:

Sam = 6 years

Linda = 22 years

Step-by-step explanation:

this is best solved by using an algebraic equation

let Sam's age be x

let Linda's age be 4x

now that we defines our variables let's make an algebraic equation

the sum of their ages is 28 so

4x + x = 28

combine like terms

5x = 28

find for x

x = 28÷ 5 = 5.6 (don't approximate yet let's take the raw age)

Sam is 5.6 years

Linda is 4 years older so we multiply Sam's age by 4

4 × 5.6 = 22.4

Linda is 22.4 years

now let's round our answers to the nearest whole

5.6 ~ 6 years

22.4 ~ 22 years

let's double check and add our answers now

22 + 6 = 28

the answer is correct

Betty is 3 times as old as Mike. In 5 years, she will be twice as old. How old are they now?

Answers

Answer:

Betty is 15.

Mike is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let Betty's age be b and Mike's age be m.

Since Betty's age is 3 times of Mike, then

[tex]b=3m[/tex]

In 5 years, the age of Betty and Mike would be [tex]b+5[/tex] and [tex]m+5[/tex] respectively.

Since Betty is 2 times as old as Mike then, then [tex]b+5=2(m+5)[/tex].

We know that [tex]b=3m[/tex], so we can substitute that:

[tex]3m+5=2(m+5)[/tex]

Expand:

[tex]3m+5=2m+10[/tex]

Subtract 5 from both sides:

[tex]3m+5-5=2m+10-5[/tex]

[tex]3m=2m+5[/tex]

Subtract 2m from both sides:

[tex]3m-2m=2m+5-2m[/tex]

[tex]m=5[/tex].

Mike is 5 years old.

Since Betty is 3 times as old as Mike, Betty's age is [tex]5*3=15[/tex]

6ft: 25.667ft   /   7ft: 22ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question shows 7ft but the diagram shows 6ft I will show how to do both

FOR 6FT

Justin's height remained the same at 5'6" (or 5.5ft) and the distance between him and the mirror was 6ft

Now if we assume the triangles are congruent to each other, then set sides A and C equal to each other and solve for x

6/28 = 5.5/x

6x = 154

x = 25.667ft

FOR 7FT

Same process as before, replace 6 with 7

7/28 = 5.5/x

7x = 154

x = 22ft

Answers

Answer:

1.5

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are in the image above

The slope of the line through these two data points is 1.5.

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

x represents the time and y represents the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

temperature of –2°F at 8 a.m. Hence:

-2 = 8m + b   (1)

it was 4°F at 12:00 p.m. Hence:

4 = 12m + b  (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

m = 1.5, b = -14

The slope of the line through these two data points is 1.5.

Find the exact length of the third side.

8

Answers

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The typical way to solve this problem is with the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs of the right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse.  Unfortunately, due to a lack of a diagram, I am forced to infer.

Because the most famous Pythagorean triplet is 3, 4, 5, and 8 and 10 are multiples of the latter two terms, I can infer that the final side length is 6.

Hope it helps :) and if it is wrong, please let me know, and repost another question with the provided diagram.

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

you can divide the shape into a square and a rectangle, the square being the 7 by 10 area. by that logic, you can find the area of that portion to be 70. now you have the cut off rectangle to find, and you know one side is 2. to find the other side, you have to subtract 7 from 12 because by doing that you get the value of just that portion of the side. by doing that you get 5. going from there, you can multiply 2 by 5 to get 10 for the area of the rectangle. now you have to add 70 and 10, and you get 80!

5. If Jericho moves closer to the center, Jean tends to go (up, down).

Answers

We want to see underline the correct part in each statement.

1) This situation illustrates (direct, inverse) variation.2) The two quantities that must vary in this situation are (weight and distance from the center, height and weight).3) The heavier the kid, the (closer, farther) he/she should be at the center to balance the seesaw?4) When Jean moves farther from the center, Jericho tends to go (up, down).5) If Jericho moves closer to the center, Jean tends to go (up, down).

So, Jean and Jericho are playing on a seesaw.

Jean is heavier than Jericho.

Now, notice that a seesaw is a lever. So it "amplificates" the force that you apply in one end to lift the weight that is on the other end. Depending on the form of the lever and the weights, the force that you need to do changes.

If we define:

W₁ = Jean's weight.d₁ = Jean's distance to the center.W₂ = Jericho's weight.d₂ = Jericho's distance to the center.

We must have:

W₁*d₁ = W₂*d₂

Then:

1) This situation illustrates (direct, inverse) variation.

d₁, the position of Jean, varies inversely with respect to Jean's weight.

2) The two quantities that must vary in this situation are (weight and

distance from the center, height and weight).

(by the equation above)

3) The heavier the kid, the (closer, farther) he/she should be at the

center to balance the seesaw?

By the given equation, we see that d₁ must be smaller than d₂.

And the last two are trivial:

4) When Jean moves farther from the center, Jericho tends to go (up,

down).

5) If Jericho moves closer to the center, Jean tends to go (up, down).
