Ok

A=P(1/2)^(t/h)
A=amount final
P=initial amount
t=time elapsed
h=time of half life

so

given h=13
and initial =48g
and final is 12g


12=48(1/2)^(t/13)
divide both sides by 48
1/4=(1/2)^(t/13)
what a coincidence
(1/2)^2=(1/2)^(t/13)
so
2=t/13
26=t

26 hours have passed

24% students in a clan were absent in a day .If 38 students were present ,what is the total strength in the clan
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

50 students

Step-by-step explanation:

24% students in a clan were absent in a day .

Hence, the Percentage of students present is calculated as:.

= 100 % - 24 %

= 76%

From the question, we know that:

If 38 students were present ,what is the total strength in the clan

The total strength of the clan = Total number of students. This is calculated as:

76% × x = 38 students.

76/100 × x = 38

76x /100 = 38

Cross Multiply

76x = 38 × 100

x = 3800/76

x = 50 students
