Answer:
x = 4 ±√26
Step-by-step explanation:
Please write this as x^2 - 8x = 10, or x^2 - 8x - 10 = 0. " ^ " indicates exponentiation.
Let's complete the square:
x^2 - 8 x can be rewritten as
x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16, and so
x^2 - 8x = 10 becomes x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16 - 10 = 0, or
(x - 4)^2 = 26
Taking the square root of both sides, we get:
x - 4 = ±√26, or
x = 4 ±√26
Answer:
8978 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation to find the half-life is:
N(t) = amount after the time <em>t</em>
= initial amount of substance
t = time
It is known that after a half-life there will be twice less of a substance than what it intially was. So, we can get a simplified equation that looks like this, in terms of half-lives.
or more simply 
= time of the half-life
We know that = 35,912, t = 14,680, and =7,340
Plug these into the equation:
Using a calculator we get:
N(t) = 8978
Therefore, after 14,680 years 8,978 grams of thorium will be left.

X in the first equation
because 3x + 6y = 9 can be reduced by dividing by 3, thus, giving u
x + 2y = 3.....x = -2y + 3...which u would sub in for x in the other equation
