The amount of a radioactive isotope decays in half every year. The amount of the isotope can be modeled by f(x) = 346(one half)x

and f(1) = 173. What does the one half represent?

It means the first iteration of decay would be 1/2 of 346, which is 173

A volleyball of radius 13 inches fits exactly in a cylinder with the same radius. inside the container there is empty space not

asambeis [7]

Volume of Sphere is V=(4/3)*PI*r^3

The radius of the volleyball is 13 inches

<span>So V=(4/3) * 3.14 * 13^3 = 9198 cubic inches</span>

Volume of a cylinder is V=pi * r^2 *h

Since they say the ball fits perfectly

The radius is 13 and the height is 26 ( the diameter of the ball)

So V=3.14 * 13^2 * 26 = 13,797 cubic inches

13797 – 9198 = 4,599 cubic inches of empty space

12. Find three consecutive even integers such that

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

10, 11, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let <em>x</em> be equal to the smallest integer.

Let <em>x</em>+1 and <em>x</em>+2 be equal to the consecutive integers.

We're given that:

⇒ smallest integer + 2 × middle integer = 20 + largest integer

Construct an equation:

$(x)+2(x+1)=20+(x+2)$

Combine like terms:

$(x)+2(x+1)=20+(x+2)\\x+2x+2=20+x+2\\3x+2=22+x\\2x=20\\x=10$

Therefore, the smallest integer is 10.

This makes the consecutive integers 11 and 12.

I hope this helps!
