The amount of the radioactive substance is 374.6 g

<h3>How to determine the amount of radioactive substance?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Initial, a = 424 mg
Rate, r = 6%
Time, t = 2 hours

The amount of the radioactive substance is calculated as:

A(t) = a(1 - r)^t

This gives

A(t) = 424 * (1 - 6%)^t

At 2 hours, we have:

A(2) = 424 * (1 - 6%)^2

Evaluate

A(2) = 374.6

Hence, the amount of the radioactive substance is 374.6 g

Consider the set of differences, denoted with d, between two dependent sets: 84, 85, 83, 63, 61, 100, 98. Find the sample standa

sveta [45]

Answer:

The sample standard deviation is 15.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data items,

84, 85, 83, 63, 61, 100, 98,

Number of data items, N = 7,

Let x represents the data item,

Mean of the data points,

$\bar{x}=\frac{84+85+83+63+61+100+98}{7}$

$=82$

Hence, sample standard deviation would be,

$\sigma= \sqrt{\frac{1}{N-1}\sum_{i=1}^{N} (x_i-\bar{x})^2}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{1}{6}\sum_{i=1}^{7} (x_i-82)^2}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{1}{6}\times 1396}$

$=\sqrt{232.666666667}$

$=15.2534149182$

$\approx 15.3$

Find the maximum/minimum value.<br> y= -2x2 - 16x - 29

nikdorinn [45]

Maximum value : x=-4

The graph of the parabola opens down, since the value of a (-2) is a negative coefficient. This means the parabola has a maximum value, not a minimum value. The vertex of the parabola is -4, which is the maximum value of the graph.

The points -13 and 6 are plotted on a number line. What is the distance, in units, between the two points?

joja [24]

19 units

Use the absolute value to find the difference between the values. This ensures that no matter which way round the calculation is done the result is the same

| - 13 - 6 | = | - 19 | = 19

| 6 - (- 13) | = | 6 + 13 | = | 19 | = 19
