Answer:
It's 64 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply the temperature in degrees Celsius by 2 then add 30 to get the estimated temperature
If you represent the problem in a diagram, you will form a triangle with 3 known length of the sides. When you are given all sides, and you are asked to find an angle, you can use the cosine law.
b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac*cosB
1.4^2 = 1.9^2 + 1^2 - 2(1.9*1)(cosB)
B = 45.78°
It would be true no explanation needed
The general way to work this out is to solve the general expression for
the remaining quantity versus half-life, using logarithms. But that's not
necessary with these numbers.
Look at the numbers:
-- 3 mg is 1/4 of 12 mg.
-- 1/4 is the product of (1/2) x (1/2).
-- So the 3 mg is what's left of 12 mg after 2 half-lives.
The 26 minutes must be two half-lives.
-- The half-life of that substance is 26/2 = <em>13 minutes</em>.
