3(negative 2-3x)=negative 9x-4

Andreyy89

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(-2 - 3x) = -9x - 4 (Given)

3(-2) + 3(-3x) = -9x - 4 (Distributive Property of Equality)

-6 + 9x = -9x - 4 (Simplify)

-6 + 4 -9x= -9x - 4 + 4 (Addition Property of Equality)

-2 + 9x = -9x (Simplify)

-2 + $\frac{-9x}{-9} = \frac{-9}{-9}$ (Division Property of Equality)

-2 = x (Simplify)

x = -2 (Symmetric Property of Equality)

I have some homework questions that i am having problems finding. Please help!

Zanzabum

[1] There are two main values to science. The first is that mathematics is where we study numbers... and they appear everywhere in the world around us! We see whole numbers when we count, negative numbers when we are in debt (just look at the national debt!), fractions when we share things between people (think pizza, or chocolate bars, yum!), and decimals when we measure distances, lengths, areas, and sizes. In fact, numbers can be used to describe almost anything. Even color can be described as the amount of red, green, and blue light (the RGB system which is how computer screens work).

The second value to science is the thinking and ideas of mathematics. Mathematics is where we learn the ideas of distance and sizes (such as area and volume). It teaches us to ask, "How far?" or "How big?" These ideas are applied to study geography, biology, astronomy and more. We also learn to look for patterns. In math, these patterns are usually number or geometric patterns, but science applies this idea to discover patterns in the weather, agriculture, oceans, and more.

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years. Suppose we have a 180-mg sample. (a) Find the mass that remains after t years. (b) How

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a) $Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

b) 11.4mg of cesium-137 remains after 120 years.

c) 225.8 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation is used to calculate the amount of cesium-137:

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-rt}$

In which Q(t) is the amount after t years, Q(0) is the initial amount, and r is the rate at which the amount decreses.

(a) Find the mass that remains after t years.

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years.

This means that Q(30) = 0.5Q(0). We apply this information to the equation to find the value of r.

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-rt}$

$0.5Q(0) = Q(0)e^{-30r}$

$e^{-30r} = 0.5$

Applying ln to both sides of the equality.

$\ln{e^{-30r}} = \ln{0.5}$

$-30r = \ln{0.5}$

$r = \frac{\ln{0.5}}{-30}$

$r = 0.023$

So

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-0.023t}$

180-mg sample, so Q(0) = 180

$Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

(b) How much of the sample remains after 120 years?

This is Q(120).

$Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

$Q(120) = 180e^{-0.023*120}$

$Q(120) = 11.4$

11.4mg of cesium-137 remains after 120 years.

(c) After how long will only 1 mg remain?

This is t when Q(t) = 1. So

$Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

$1 = 180e^{-0.023t}$

$e^{-0.023t} = \frac{1}{180}$

$e^{-0.023t} = 0.00556$

Applying ln to both sides

$\ln{e^{-0.023t}} = \ln{0.00556}$

$-0.023t = \ln{0.00556}$

$t = \frac{\ln{0.00556}}{-0.023}$

$t = 225.8$

225.8 years.
