Mathematics

The time taken for the element X to decay from 560 grams to 150 grams is 24.7 mins

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 560 g
  • Amount remaining (N) = 150 g
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

2ⁿ = N₀ / N

2ⁿ = 560 / 150

2ⁿ = 3.73

Take the log of both side

Log 2ⁿ = Log 3.73

nLog 2 = Log 3.73

Divide both side by Log 2

n = Log 3.73 / Log 2

n = 1.9

<h3>How to determine the time </h3>
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 1.9
  • Half-life (t½) = 13 mins
  • Time (t) =?

t = n × t½

t = 1.9 × 13

t = 24.7 mins

The range of the given data set is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Range of the data set provides us with some basic information regarding spread of the data.

It is commonly used and quite easy to find.

First step is to arrange the values from the lowest to the highest.

It is already given arranged, so that will savd us some time.

Next step is simply subtracting the two values on the extremes, or, simply put, subtract the lowest from the highest value.

So, the range in this case would be 7-1=6.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

k = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

-3=k+3

1) you must isolate the variable (k)

2) subtract each side by 3, to get k=-6

> -3-3=k+3-3

-6=k

now your variable is isolated, so you have your answer.

The average of 6 numbers is 7. When a 7th number is addedThe average of all numbers is 0. What is the seventh number?
Katena32 [7]

-- The average of 6 numbers is 7.
    So those 6 numbers must add up to 42.

-- If one more number results in an average of zero,
   the new number must be  -42 .
   Then all 7 numbers add up to zero.
