(126) times (1/2 to the x/11 power) = 15% times 126
(1/2) to the x/11 power = 0.15
Take the log of both sides :
(x/11) times log(1/2) = log(0.15)
Multiply both sides by 11 :
'x' times log(1/2) = 11 x log(0.15)
Divide both sides by " log(1/2) " :
x = 11 x log(0.15)/log(1/2) = <em><u>30.107 years</u></em> (rounded)
That's the time it takes for <em><u>any-size</u></em> sample of this substance
to decay to 15% of its original size.
Answer:
X is 36 and y is 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
So a couple of things here: both triangles are equal, and triangles always add up to 180 degrees. If we do some math:
180-108-48=24
This means that 2x-y needs to equal 24. We know what y is, it's 48 since both triangles are equal. Lets do some more math to find x.
48+24=72
72 divided by 2 = 36. 36 is the answer for x.

Answer:
yeeeeeeeeeeee
Step-by-step explanation:
Do you have 1 7/8 divided by one half. With dividing you multiply by the reciprocal of 1/2 which is 2/1. Before you do that change 1 7/8 into a mixed number which is 15/8. 15 x 2= 30, 8 x 1=8. New fraction is 30/8. Now as a mixed number it is 3 6/8 which simplifies to 3 3/4. So your answer is D
