Answer:

  288

Step-by-step explanation:

If 52% studied French, then 48% didn't. The ratio of those who didn't to those who did is ...

  (didn't study French)/312 = 48%/52% = 12/13

Then the number that didn't study French is ...

  (didn't study French) = 312 × 12/13 = 288 . . . . . . multiply above by 312

288 students chose not to take French their Junior year.

never [62]

Answer:

smallest   angle measure 39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the three interior angles in a triangle is always 180°

x= smallest

x +x+24 + 2x = 180

4x +24 = 180

4x = 156

x = 39

The amount y (in grams) of the radioactive isotope fermium-253 remaining after t hours is y=a(0.5)t/72, where a is the initial a
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Per hour decay of the isotope is 0.96%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of radioactive element remaining after t hours is represented by

y=a(0.5)^{\frac{t}{72}}

where a = initial amount

t = duration of decay (in hours)

Amount remaining after 1 hour will be,

y=a(0.5)^{\frac{1}{72} }

y = 0.9904a

So amount of decay in one hour = a - 0.9904a

                                                      = 0.0096a gms

Percentage decay every hour = \frac{\text{Amount of decay}}{\text{Initial amount}}\times 100

                                                  = \frac{0.0096a}{a}\times 100

                                                  = 0.958 %

                                                  ≈ 0.96 %

Therefore, per hour decay of the radioactive isotope is 0.96%.
