The amount of the radioactive material in the vault after 140 years is 210 pounds

<h3>How to determine the amount</h3>

We have that the function is given as a model;

f(x) = 300(0.5)x/100

Where

  • x = number of years of the vault = 140 years
  • f(x) is the amount  in pounds

Let's substitute the value of 'x' in the model

f(x) = 300(0.5)x/100

f(x) = \frac{300(0.5) * 140}{100}

f(x) =\frac{21000}{100}

f(140) = 210 pounds

This mean that the function of 149 years would give an amount of 210 pounds rounded up to the nearest whole number.

Thus, the amount of the radioactive material in the vault after 140 years is 210 pounds

An isosceles triangle with base 12mm and perimeter 28mm
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Side lengths of 12,8,8

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles triangle the base is different from the other 2 sides which are the same so

28=12+2x (x being the side of the repeat sides)

14=6+x (divide both sides by 2)

8=x (subtract 6 from both sides) so

Side lengths of 12,8,8

Answer:

m\angle N=57^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the isosceles-base theorem, the measure of the angles adjacent to the pair of congruent sides of the triangle are equal. Since the problem declares LM\cong LN, the remaining unknown angles are equal (m\angle N=m\angle M). The sum of the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180^{\circ}$.

Therefore:

m\angle N\cdot 2+66=180,\\m\angle N\cdot 2=114,\\m\angle N=\fbox{$57^{\circ}$} .
