Answer:666 hours

Step-by-step explanation: The reason is that if you turn the problem into an equation it would be h=Lx. h= hours. L=how long the log lasts and x=how many logs. So when you plug in the numbers you get 101010=L*151515. So we need to find L. What you do is you divide both sides by 151515 since it is the opposite of multiplication. 151515/151515 gets crossed out and 101010/151515 is .6666666666666 irrational. So the equation now looks like .666666 irrational=L. So .66666 irrational is your L. Know you plug .666666 irrational into your original equation. Which is now h=.6666 irrational*x. So to find how long the fire keeps on burning with 999 logs you just plug 999 into x and now your equation looks like this h=.6666 irrational*999. If you multiply .6666 irrational by 999 your final answer is 666.

Iodine-125 has a half-life of about 60 days. How many milligrams of a 1000 mg sample will remain after 240 days?
Tomtit [17]

240 days is 4 times the half-life, which means that a sample of 1000 mg will decay to

\dfrac{1000}{2^4}=\dfrac{125}2=62.5\,\mathrm{mg}

after 240 days.

As shown, a section of a roller coaster track (figure 3) follows the form of y=(2/3)x1.5. locate the centroid x? of the track be
LiRa [457]
F(x)=(2/3)x^1.5

The centroid position along the x-axis can be obtained by 
integrating the function * x to get the moment about the y-axis, 
then divide by the area of the graph,
all between x=0 to x=3.5m.

Expressed mathematically,
x_bar=(&int;f(x)*x dx )/(&int; f(x) dx  limits are between x=0 and x=3.5m
=15.278 m^3 / 6.1113 m^2
=2.500 m

Round off the following numbers to two decimal places <br> 1.2.1) 0,77677<br> 1.2.2) 34,2784682
andre [41]
1) 0.78
2) 34.28
This is because the number in the 3rd decimal place for both numbers is 5 or above so it is rounded up rather than down.
