Answer:

3 grams will be left after 6 half-lives

Step-by-step explanation:

Half-live:

Time it takes for the substance to be reduced by hall.

After n half lives:

The amount remaing is:

A(n) = A(0)(0.5)^{n}

In which A(0) is the initial amount and n is the number of half-lives.

Starting with 210 grams of a radioactive isotope, how much will be left after 6 half-lives?

This is A(6) when A(0) = 210. So

A(n) = A(0)(0.5)^{n}

A(6) = 210(0.5)^{6} = 3.3

Rounding to the nearest gram

3 grams will be left after 6 half-lives

Perpendicular means the slopes are opposite inverse of each other
If line a is slope 2, the perpendicular line to Line a would have a slope - 1/2
Difference in y over difference in x gives slope. If they are opposite inverse values the lines are perpendicular. ( in this case the answer is true.)
