Answer:
0
-20
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
0 x any number = 0
4(-5) = -20
126/(-18) = -7
Answer:
<em>11.29 grams </em><em>of strontium-90 were present in the original rock sample in 1933.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Strontium has a half-life of 28.8 years. Therefore,
1989 - 1933 = 56 years.
56 / 28.8 = 1.94 half-lives
Thus, the quantity of the radioisotope remaining will double for each half-life elapsed. moving backwards in time.
Therefore, moving backwards in time by 1.94 half-lives, the quantity remaining will double by 1.94 times.
Thus, the amount remaining in 1933 is
3.0 × (1.94)² = <em>11.29 grams</em>
177 divided by 39 is 4.5 so either 4 or 5 baskets is needed. I think 4.5 though or 5 because you’d need more space rather than not enough if that makes sense
The idea of using 4 because it's a factor is the wrong choice. If the equation were 5x = 88 and you divide by 4, you aren't getting a single 1x alone. So the "divide because it's a factor" choice is wrong.
