Answer:

Option D - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A sample of rock is found to contain 100 grams of a parent isotope.

To find : How many grams of the parent isotope will remain after two half-lives.

Solution : A sample of rocks contain parent isotope  = 100 gram

After one half life of the parent isotope i.e. divided by 2

\frac{100}{2}=50

After two half lives of the parent isotope means again divide one-half life by 2

 \frac{50}{2}=25

Which means 25 gram of the parent isotope will remain after two half lives.

Therefore, Option D is correct -25

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of -2/3 and passes through point (–3, –1)?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

y = (-2/3)x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello:

equation is the line is : y = ax+b        a is a slope

y = (-2/3)x+b

passing through the point (−3;−1) :   -1 =(-2/3)(-3)+b    so : b = -3

y = (-2/3)x-3

second solution : you can verify (-3 ; -1) in the equation : y = (-2/3)x-3

charle [14.2K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A) A net is a two-dimensional pattern for a solid.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In fact, a net is a two-dimensional pattern for a solid. But what is a solid? They are three-dimensional shapes. Prisms, cubes, pyramids, among others, are examples of solids. For example, the first figure below is a net because is a two dimensional patter for a pyramid which is shown in the second figure. As you can see, the first figure is a two-dimensional patter for this three-dimensional shape. Hence, by unfolding the pyramid we get the net or, in other word, by folding the net we get the pyramid.
