Hello there!

Pearl drives 18 Miles with every 1 gallons of gas, Lourdes Drives 24 miles every 1 gallons of gas. Lourdes is using less gas and driving more miles than Pearl every gallon so he is using gas more efficiently.

A breeder reactor converts uranium-238 into an isotope of plutonium-239 at a rate proportional to the amount of uranium-238 pres
topjm [15]

Let U(t) denote the amount of uranium-238 in the reactor at time t. As conversion to plutonium-239 occurs, the amount of uranium will decrease, so the conversion rate is negative. Because the rate is proportional to the current amount of uranium, we have

\dfrac{\mathrm dU}{\mathrm dt}=-kU

where k>0 is constant. Separating variables and integrating both sides gives

\dfrac{\mathrm dU}U=-k\,\mathrm dt\implies\ln|U|=-kt+C\implies U=Ce^{-kt}

Suppose we start some amount u. This means that at time t=0 we have U(0)=u, so that

u=Ce^{-0k}\implies C=u\implies U=ue^{-kt}

We're given that after 10 years, 99.97% of the original amount of uranium remains. This means (if t is taken to be in years) for some starting amount u,

0.9997u=ue^{-10k}\implies k=-\dfrac{\ln(0.9997)}{10}

The half-life is the time t_{1/2} it takes for the starting amount u to decay to half, 0.5u:

0.5u=ue^{-kt_{1/2}}\implies t_{1/2}=-\dfrac{\ln(0.5)}k=\dfrac{10\ln2}{\ln(0.9997)}

or about 23,101 years. Notice that it doesn't matter what the actual starting amount is, the half-life is independent of that.
