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

Find the height of the tree
NeX [460]

Use the property of similarity of triangles =》the corresponding sides of a triangle should be in the same ratio.

Take the missing side as 'x'.

The corresponding sides here are,

■ 7 & 14 ft

■ 5 & x ft

7/14 = 5/x

7x = 5 × 14 (cross multiplication)

7x = 70

x = 70/7

x = 10 ft

Height of the tree = 10 ft.

1. D - Since it's random, everyone has an equal chance of being picked

2. B - Since the people are already registered voters it would be easier to get a response from them. Plus, picking ever 10th person makes it random.

3. false - a fair question wouldn't make assumptions about the population

4. B - "Don't you think" causes the answerer to be pushed towards saying yes

hope this helps :)
