Answer:

2.97 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Tungsten, W-181 is a radioactive isotope with a half life of 121 days.

We will use half-life formula to solve our given problem.

A=a\cdot (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h}}, where,

A = Final amount.

a = Initial amount,

t = Time,

h = Half life.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

A=24\cdot (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{365}{121}}

A=24\cdot 0.1235760503818562

A=2.9658252091\approx 2.97

Therefore, 2.97 kg of W-181 will be left after 1 year.

3 kg because one year is approximately 3 half-lives of W-181. The amount remaining would be 1/23<span> or 1/8. That is 3 kg of W-181.</span>

Carlos has at most $40 to spend on food for a barbeque. He wants to buy hot dogs and hamburgers and then
poizon [28]

Answer:

$8.50

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what Alls are, but if Carlos insists, we can calculate how much he can spend on Alls with the expression:

($31.50) + r \leq $40

This says the sum of what Carlos has already spent (hot dogs and hamburgers) plus the amount he spends on Alls (rolls?), r,  must be equal to or less than the $40 he has allowed himself to spend.

($31.50) + r \leq $40

r  \leq $40 - $31.50

r \leq $8.50

7 + 11 = 18 
7 * 11 = 77 
I hope this is helpful

Right triangle ABC is on a coordinate plane. Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long. Point C is on the line x = -1.
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The possible y-coordinate of point C is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinate of a point is given by (x,y) where x is the horizontal distance from the origin on the x axis and y is the vertical distance from the origin.

Given Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long and Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long. The area of triangle ABC is 6 square units.

The area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

6 = 1/2 × 3 × height

height = (2 × 6) / 3 = 4 units

Since point C is perpendicular to line y = 2, they coordinates is either 2 + 4 = 6 or 2 - 4 = -2

The coordinate of point C is either (-1, 6) or (-1, -2)
