3x^2 - 8= 40
add 8 to both sides
3x^2= 48
divide both sides by 3
x^2= 16
take the square root of x and 16
x= 4

ANSWER: x=4

Hope this helps! :)

If 12g of a radioactive substance are present initially and 8yr later only 6g remain, how much if the substance will be present
Brums [2.3K]

The weight of substance remaining after 13 years is 2.25 g.

Given:

Present weight of substance = 12 g

After 8 years weight remains = 6 gm

Now, weight loss in 8 year will be,

12-6=6 gm

So, weight loss in 1 year will be,

\dfrac{6}{8} =\dfrac{3}{4}

Total weight loss in 13 year will be,

\dfrac{3}{4}\times13=9.75

The weight of substance remaining after 13 years will be,

12- 9.75 = 2.25 \;\rm g

Therefore, the weight of substance remaining after 13 years is 2.25 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

— Round tables will have 6 chairs, rectangular tables will have 10 chairs, the total number of chairs must be at least 185: 6x +10y ≥ 185

— There be no more than 15 rectangular tables: y ≤ 15

— No fewer than 6 round tables: x ≥ 6

— Rectangular tables must be at least 1/3 the number of round tables: y ≥ (1/3)x ⇒ 3y ≥ x
