If the expression is kept in its original form, you would add 10 and 4.8 together to get 14.8 and then add 90 to receive an answer of 104.8. With the reworked expression, you add 90 and 10 first to get 100 and then add 4.8 to receive 104.8.

Answer: Because of PEMDAS, the way Morgan rewrote the expression would change the the order of the steps to simplify it.

Step-by-step explanation: PEMDAS is the order of operations and it stands for Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Addition, and Subtraction. If we simplify Morgan's version of the expression, we would add 90+10 first, which makes 100, then add 4.8 which makes 104.8. We come to the same conclusion when simplifying the original expression, 104.8. The difference is that we add 10+4.8 first and then add it to 90. While in this situation, the outcome was not different, the order of operations was changed.

The amount A of the radioactive element radium in a sample decays at a rate proportional to the amount of radium present. Given
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a) \frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m, b) m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }, c) m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }, d) m(300) \approx 8.842\,g

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let assume an initial mass m decaying at a constant rate k throughout time, the differential equation is:

\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m

b) The general solution is found after separating variables and integrating each sides:

m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }

Where \tau is the time constant and k = \frac{1}{\tau}

c) The time constant is:

\tau = \frac{1690\,yr}{\ln 2}

\tau = 2438.155\,yr

The particular solution of the differential equation is:

m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }

d) The amount of radium after 300 years is:

m(300) \approx 8.842\,g

Geometry: The rectangle shown has a perimeter of 34cm and the given area. Its length is 5 more than twice it's width. Write and
Thepotemich [5.8K]

w - width

2w + 5 - length

w + w + (2w + 5) + (2w + 5) = 6w + 10 - perimeter

34 cm - perimeter

The equation:

6w + 10 = 34    <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>

6w = 24    <em>divide both sides by 6</em>

w = 4 cm

2w + 5 = 2(4) + 5 = 8 + 5 = 13 cm

<h3>Answer: Width = 4cm, Length = 13cm</h3>
