Iodine-123 is a radioactive substance used in medicine. It has a half-life of 13 hours. A nurse received a solution that initial

ly contained 48 grams of iodine-123. Now only 12 grams of the iodine-123 remain. How many hours have passed since the nurse received the solution?

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

icang [17]

Answer:

Corresponding angles

Step-by-step explanation:

<3 and <7 lie on the same side of the transversal line. Each angle also is located on the outside of each parallel lines cut across by the transversal.

Therefore, <3 and <7 are corresponding angles.

What is the solution set of {x | x &lt; 2} {x | x ≥ 2}? all numbers less than -5 and greater than 5 the empty set the numbers be
juin [17]

Answer:

The solution set is the empty set.

Step-by-step explanation:

{x | x < 2} is the set of all numbers less than 2. This means x can take values such as 1.99, 0, -2000 and so on. That is, all values less than 2.

{x | x ≥ 2} is the set of all numbers equal to or greater than 2. This means x can take values such as 2, 2.1, 5000, and so on. That is, 2 or any value greater than 2.

Since there is no sign between the two sets, the question is asking for the intersection between these two sets. That is, what elements are common to these two sets? As we can see, the two sets don't have any common element. Hence, their intersection is the empty set.

(Note that the union of these two sets would be the set of all real numbers as that includes all elements from either set).

Choose where it is a function or not a function also choose what is the range and the domain
kow [346]
Not a function because of the vertical line test.
Domain is [-2,∞] since the left most point is -2 and the right is unbounded.
Range is (-∞,∞) since it is not bounded in terms of y.
