<span>RT, i.e. is S the midpoint of RT? If it does, then RS = ST; RT = RS + ST; RT = 2 * RS; RT = 5 1/4</span>

Inverse of <br>f(X) = 3x - 7

poizon [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = f(X) = 3x - 7

3x = y + 7

x= (y +7)/3

f ^-1(x) = (x + 7)/3

Johnathan makes $24 in 6 hours, so how much would he make in 8 hours

suter [353]

$24 in 6 hours.

6 hours = $24

1 hour would be: $24/6 = $4

8 hours would then be: $4 * 8 = $32.

So he would make $32 in 8 hours.

Hope this explains it.

Initially 100 milligrams of a radioactive substance was present. After 6 hours the mass had decreased by 3%. If the rate of deca

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The half-life of the radioactive substance is 135.9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of decay is proportional to the amount of the substance present at time t

This means that the amount of the substance can be modeled by the following differential equation:

$\frac{dQ}{dt} = -rt$

Which has the following solution:

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-rt}$

In which Q(t) is the amount after t hours, Q(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate.

After 6 hours the mass had decreased by 3%.

This means that $Q(6) = (1-0.03)Q(0) = 0.97Q(0)$ . We use this to find r.

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-rt}$

$0.97Q(0) = Q(0)e^{-6r}$

$e^{-6r} = 0.97$

$\ln{e^{-6r}} = \ln{0.97}$

$-6r = \ln{0.97}$

$r = -\frac{\ln{0.97}}{6}$

$r = 0.0051$

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-0.0051t}$

Determine the half-life of the radioactive substance.

This is t for which Q(t) = 0.5Q(0). So

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-0.0051t}$

$0.5Q(0) = Q(0)e^{-0.0051t}$

$e^{-0.0051t} = 0.5$

$\ln{e^{-0.0051t}} = \ln{0.5}$

$-0.0051t = \ln{0.5}$

$t = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{0.0051}$

$t = 135.9$

The half-life of the radioactive substance is 135.9 hours.
