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>

A tangent and a secant x = ?
guajiro [1.7K]

x = 45°

Solution:

Given data:

Measure of larger arc = 152°

Measure of smaller arc = 62°

<em>If a tangent and a secant intersect at the exterior of a circle then the measure of angle formed is one-half the positive difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.</em>

$\Rightarrow  x = \frac{1}{2}(\text{ larger arc }- \text{smaller arc} )

$\Rightarrow  x = \frac{1}{2}(152^\circ-62^\circ)

$\Rightarrow  x = \frac{1}{2}(90^\circ)

⇒ x = 45°

The value of x is 45°.

What is the rule for Aaliyah’s machine? Try to write the rule as an equation.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

  f(x) = 2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently the ordered pairs are ...

  (x, f(x)) = (1, 3), (2, 5), (3, 7), (4, 9)

We note that as x increases by 1, the value of f(x) increases by 2. The difference between f(x) and 2x is 3-2·1 = 1, so we have ...

  f(x) -2x = 1

  f(x) = 2x +1 . . . . . . add 2x

Which of the following is true of the discriminant for the graph below?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

<u>Option C. It is zero</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph represents a quadratic equation

The quadratic equation has the form ⇒a x² + b x + c

The discriminant of the quadratic equation is D = b² - 4ac

From the discriminant of the quadratic equation, we can know the type of roots of the quadratic equation.

  1. If D > 0 ⇒ Two real roots.
  2. If D = 0 ⇒ one real roots
  3. If D < 0 ⇒ Two imaginary roots.

The roots of the quadratic equation are the x-intercepts of the function.

As shown at the figure, the quadratic equation has only one point of intersection with the x-axis

So, the function has only one root ⇒ D = 0

So, the discriminant of the quadratic equation = 0

<u>The answer is option C. It is zero</u>
