Bismuth-210 is an isotope that radioactively decays by about 13% each day, meaning 13% of the remaining Bismuth-210 transforms i

nto another atom (polonium-210 in this case) each day. If you begin with 233 mg of Bismuth-210, how much remains after 8 days?

Answer:

Approximately 76.5 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The initial quantity of the Bismuth-210, P = 233 mg,

Also, the rate of decay per day, r = 13 %

Thus, the quantity of the Bismuth-210 after 8 days would be,

A=P(1-\frac{r}{100})^8

=233(1-\frac{13}{100})^8

=233(1-0.13)^8

=233(0.87)^8

=76.4733194697

\approx 76.5\text{ mg}

A lot of 200 chips contain 5 that are defective. 8 are selected random with out replacement.
vaieri [72.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

1 , \frac{1}{66}  (Answer)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since, 8 chips are selected at random and 5 are there defectives in the lot, So, at least (8 - 5) = 3 chosen chips will be non - defective.

So, P ( At least two of selected part is non defective ) = 1 .

P(first and second samples are defective)

= \frac{5 \times 4}{200 \times 199}

P ( first, second and third samples are defective)

= \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3}{200 \times 199 \times 198}

So,

\frac{{\textrm{Third sample is defective | first and second samples are defectives}}}

=\frac{{\textrm{  P ( first, second and third samples are defective)}}}{{\textrm{  P(first and second samples are defective) }}}

= \frac{3}{198}

= \frac{1}{66}  (Answer)

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Proper Subsets = 1023

Step-by-step explanation:

GivenW= \{Hampton\ Hotels, Anytime\ Fitness, Subway, Jack\ in\ the\ Box, Supercuts, \\Jimmy\ Johns, Servpro, Denny's, Pizza\ Hut, 7-Eleven\}

Required

Determine the proper subsets

Proper Subset (P) is calculated using;

P = 2^n - 1

Where

n = number\ of\ elements

In this case;

n = 10

So:

P = 2^n - 1

P = 2^{10} - 1

P = 1024 - 1

P = 1023

Hence;

<em>Proper Subsets = 1023</em>
