Answer:

s = 71 mph, and s+9 = f = 80 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances the two busses travel add up to 604 mi.

Letting f be the faster speed and s the slower.  Then f = s + 9 (mph).

Then (s + 9)(mph)(4 hr) + (s)(mph)(4 hr) = 604 mi.  Solve this for s:

4s + 36 + 4s = 604 mi, or 8s = 568.  Finally, s = 71 mph, and s+9 = f = 80 mph.

| x - 1 | = 5x + 10<br> Check for extraneous solutions.
Ronch [10]
[x-1]=5x+10

We have two equations:
1) x-1=5x+10

x-1=5x+10
x-5x=10+1
-4x=11
x=-11/4

2) x-1=-(5x+10)

x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-5x-10
x+5x=-10+1
6x=-9
x=-9/6=-3/2

we have two  possible solutions:
solution₁;       x=-11/4
solution₂:       x=-3/2

we check it out:
1) x=-11/4
[x-1]=5x+10
[-11/4  - 1]=5(-11/4)+10
[(-11-4)/4]=-55/4  + 10
[-15/4]=(-55+40) /4
15/4≠-15/4   This solution don´t work.

2) x=-3/2
[x-1]=5x+10
[-3/2  - 1]=5(-3/2)+10
[(-3-2)/2]=-15/2  + 10
[-5/2]=(-15+20)/2
5/2=5/2; this solution works.

Therefore:

Answer: x=-3/2.

Strontium-90 has a half-life of about 29 years. After 65 years, about how many grams of a 25-gram sample will remain?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Ending Amount = Beginning Amount / 2 ^ n

where 'n' = number of half-lives n = 65 / 29 = 2.2413793103

Ending Amount = 25 g / 2^2.2413793103

Ending Amount = 25 / 4.7284892286

Ending Amount = 5.2871009727  g = 5.29 g (rounded)
