To solve this we are going to use the half life equation N(t)=N_{0} e^{( \frac{-0.693t}{t _{1/2} }) }
Where:
N_{0} is the initial sample
t is the time in years
t_{1/2} is the half life of the substance
N(t) is the remainder quantity after t years 

From the problem we know that:
N_{0} =100
t=200
t_{1/2} =1600

Lets replace those values in our equation to find N(t):
N(200) =100e^{( \frac{(-0.693)(200)}{1600}) }
N(200)=100e^{( \frac{-138.6}{1600} )}
N(200)=100e^{-0.086625}
N(200)=91.7

We can conclude that after 1600 years of radioactive decay, the mass of the 100-gram sample will be 91.7 grams.

Kay [80]

Answer:

3.90%

Step-by-step explanation:

Relevant Data provided as per the question below:

Annual dividend = $0.28 and $0.16

Current per share = $11.27

According to the given situation, the calculation of the current yield of the stock is shown below:-

Current yield is

= \frac{Annual\ dividend}{Current\ share\ price} \times 100\\\\ = \frac{0.28 + 0.16}{11.27} \times 100

= \frac{0.44}{11.27} \times 100

= 3.90%

Therefore for computing the current yield of the stock we simply applied the above formula.

0.42z = 2.52
z = 2.52 / 0.42
z = 6

same as

z + 7.45 = 13.45
z = 13.45 - 7.45
z = 6
answer is top right  z + 7.45 = 13.45
