The half - life of Barium-137m is 2.552 minutes. How much of an 18 gram sample would be left after 10 minutes

Mathematics

To simplify the problem imagine the half-life was 2.5 minutes. This means that there would be 10/2.5=4 periods of halving the mass, which means 1/2⁴=1/16 of 18g=1.125g.
So for the given half-life we calculate 10/2.552=3.9185 approx. So we now find 2 to this power=15.1211 approx and divide into 18=1.19g. This is close to the rough estimate we did earlier.

What are the roots of the equation 16x² + 16x + 5 = 0 in simplest a + bi form?​
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the quadratic formula :

roots =  [-16 +/-√(16^2 - 4*16*5)] / (2*16)

= -0.5 +/- √(-64) /32

= -0.5 +/- 8i/32

= -0.5 + 0.25i and -0.5 - 0.25i

Find the equation of a line that has a slope of 1/2 and passes through the origin.
omeli [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line with slope m and y-intercept b is y = m x + b.  

This line goes through the point ( 0 ,0 ), so the y-intercept is zero.

We are given the slope as − 2 / 3.

The equation of the line is y= – 2 / 3 x + 0 = – 2 / 3 x

y = – 2 / 3 x
