Answer: 3600 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
60 seconds in a minute
60 minutes in an hour
(60)(60) = 3600
If
is the amount of strontium-90 present in the area in year
, and it decays at a rate of 2.5% per year, then

Let
be the starting amount immediately after the nuclear reactor explodes. Then

or simply

So that after 50 years, the amount of strontium-90 that remains is approximately

or about 28% of the original amount.
We can confirm this another way; recall the exponential decay formula,

where
is measured in years. We're told that 2.5% of the starting amount
decays after 1 year, so that

Then after 50 years, we have

Answer:
it is B
Step-by-step explanation:
I would find the area of the shape as if it were a rectangle (5x9) and then subtract the area of two triangles (1/2x2x2.5)
False, it would not make a right triangle
