Answer:

the remaining mass of unobtanium -41 after a 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds and 20 seconds is 24 gr, 12 gr , 5.33 gr and 3 gr respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation that governs the remaining mass m of unobtanium -41 after a time t is

m=m₀*2^(-t/T) , where t is in seconds ,m₀ represents initial mass and T=half-life

Therefore

a) for t=5 s

m=48 gr*2^(-t/5 s) = 48 gr*2^(-5 s/5 s) = 48 gr/2 = 24 gr

b)  for t=10 s

m=48 gr*2^(-t/5 s) = 48 gr*2^(-10 s/5 s) = 48 gr/4 = 12 gr

b)  for t=15 s

m=48 gr*2^(-t/5 s) = 48 gr*2^(-15 s/5 s) = 48 gr/9 = 5.33 gr

b)  for t=20 s

m=48 gr*2^(-t/5 s) = 48 gr*2^(-20 s/5 s) = 48 gr/16 = 3 gr

thus the remaining mass of unobtanium -41 after a 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds and 20 seconds is 24 gr, 12 gr , 5.33 gr and 3 gr respectively

Which relation is a function?
sergejj [24]

To determine which relation is a function, we can perform something called the vertical line test. We cover the graph in repeating vertical lines and if one vertical line connects with more than one point of the relation, the relation is not a function.

The relation in the bottom right corner is the only relation that passes the vertical line test.

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the graph below
labwork [276]

Answer:

y = 10x

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the slope (m) of the line the following points in the line, (0, 0) and (2, 20):

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{20 - 0}{2 - 0} = \frac{20}{2} = 10

y-intercept (b) is 0. The line intercepts the y-axis at 0. Thus, b = 0.

Substitute m = 10 and b = 0 in y = mx + b

The equation in slope-intercept form for the graph would be:

✅y = 1x + 0

y = 10x
