Answer:

0.015625 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we start with say 100g of the material, in 10 years there is 100 * 1/2 =

50g left   ( = 0.5 left).

In 20 years there is 100*(1/2)^2 = 25 g  left.

In n*10 years there is  100(1/2)^2 g

So in 60 years there is 100(1/2)^6 = 1.5625 g left

This is 1.5625 %

= 0.015625 of the origin material left.

GaryK [48]

Answer:

<20,23>

u= <4,5> and v= <0,-1>

2v = 2*<0,-1> = <0,-2>

5u = 5* <4,5> = <20,25>

2v+5u = <0,-2> + <20,25>
