The answer is X=3 or x=5/3
<span> SO in total, Emily and Sarah had a total of 80
dollars in which Emily had twice as much as Sarah.
Let’s solve to find out how much their Money is.
=> Since the ratio of the given data is 2:1, 2 + 1 =3, so let’s divide 80 by
3
=> 80 / 3 = 26.667 ,
=> Emily has twice as this.
=> 26.667 * 2 = 53.33
=> Sarah has 26.67
Now, Sarah spent 1/3 of her money
=> 26.67 / 3 = 8.89 – her remaining money
Emily spent 17 dollars of her money
=> 53.33 – 17 = 36.33</span>
Elsa's answer is incorrect since there is a solution of the given equation. In the given logarithmic problem, we need to simplify the problem by transposing log2(3x+5) in the opposite side. The equation will now be log2x-log2(3x+5)=4. Using properties of logarithm, we further simplify the problem into a new form log (2x/6x+10)=4. Then transform the equation into base form 10^4=(2x/6x+10) and proceed in solving for x value which is equal to 1.667.
The percentage of the radioactive isotope left is 25.0000%.
<h3>What is the half life?</h3>
The half life of a radioactive isotope is the time that will elapse before only half of the number of original isotopes will remain.
Now;
We are told that;
Half life (t1/2) = 55 days
Time taken (t) = 115 days
Ratio of isotope remaining = N/No
Thus;
N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2
N/No = (1/2)^115/55
N/No = (1/2)^2
N/No =1/4
Hence, the percentage = 1/4 * 100/1 = 25.0000%
