What is the number if 5/7 of it is 15

Nady [450]

Answer: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be $x$ , then ;

$\frac{5}{7}$ of $x$ = $15$

that is :

$\frac{5x}{7}=15$

$5x = 15(7)$

$5x = 105$

divide through by 5

$x = 21$

Therefore : the number is 21

At the beginning of an experiment, a scientist has 300 grams of radioactive goo. After 150 minutes, her sample has decayed to 37

monitta

Answer:

Half-life of the goo is 49.5 minutes

$G(t)= 300e^{-0.014t}$

191.7 grams of goo will remain after 32 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $M_0\,,\,M_f$ denotes initial and final mass.

$M_0=300\,\,grams\,,\,M_f=37.5\,\,grams$

According to exponential decay,

$\ln \left ( \frac{M_f}{M_0} \right )=-kt$

Here, t denotes time and k denotes decay constant.

$\ln \left ( \frac{M_f}{M_0} \right )=-kt\\\ln \left ( \frac{37.5}{300} \right )=-k(150)\\-2.079=-k(150)\\k=\frac{2.079}{150}=0.014$

So, half-life of the goo in minutes is calculated as follows:

$\ln \left ( \frac{50}{100} \right )=-kt\\\ln \left ( \frac{50}{100} \right )=-(0.014)t\\t=\frac{-0.693}{-0.014}=49.5\,\,minutes$

Half-life of the goo is 49.5 minutes

$\ln \left ( \frac{M_f}{M_0} \right )=-kt\Rightarrow M_f=M_0e^{-kt}$

So,

$G(t)= M_f=M_0e^{-kt}$

Put $M_0=300\,\,grams\,,\,k=0.014$

$G(t)= 300e^{-0.014t}$

Put t = 32 minutes

$G(32)= 300e^{-0.014(32)}=300e^{-0.448}=191.7\,\,grams$
