5 0

To find the third side (hypotenuse) use the Pythagorean theorem:

h^2 = 6^2 + 8^2
h^2 = 36 + 64
h^2 = 100
h = 10

Now add all three sides to get the perimeter:

P = 6 + 8 + 10 = 24cm

lukranit [14]

Point v is graphed on a number line at -6...point u is 8 units away from v....notice that it doesn't say which way....so it can go either way....so we need to find 8 units away from -6 in both directions

-6 + 8 = 2
-6 - 8 = -14

so point u can be either at 2 or at -14...ur answers are A and D

Andru [333]

Answer:

1 : 45

Step-by-step explanation:

225 divided by 5 equals 45. You can now use this ratio to determine the number of people with different amounts of buses; when you change x from 1 to n, you would need to multiply 45 by n, and you will have your new ratio column in the table.

Hope this helps :)

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this

Firlakuza [10]

The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ after a time, t, is given by:

$N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{ \frac{1}{2} }}$

Given that <span>potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

$0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\ \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5$

Therefore, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>
