Hpw to find exponential decay equation of radioaxtive subsrance
1 answer:
I believe you are referring to the half-life formula, which is used to calculate the half-life (when the substance drops to half of its original amount) of radioactive substances. The equation is as follows: 
<em>A</em> is the remaining amount
<em>P</em> is the initial amount
<em>t</em> is the time that has passed
<em>h</em> is the half-life of the substance
When plugging values into the equation, make sure that <em>t </em>and <em>h </em>are both measured in the same unit (e.g. <em>t </em>days and <em>h </em>days), as well as <em>A </em>and <em>P</em>.
<em>A</em> is the remaining amount

<h3>How to determine the similarity statement</h3>The coordinates of the two triangles are:
A (0,0), B (4,0), C (0,2), D (0,0), E (2,0), and F (0,1)
Calculate the lengths of both triangles using the following distance formula
For triangle ABC, we have:
For triangle DEF, we have:
Divide corresponding sides of the triangles to calculate the scale factor k
This gives
Evaluate the quotients
Since the quotients are equal, then the triangles are similar
