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
where a = initial amount
t = duration of decay (in hours)
Amount remaining after 1 hour will be,
y = 0.9904a
So amount of decay in one hour = a - 0.9904a
= 0.0096a gms
Percentage decay every hour = 
= 
= 0.958 %
≈ 0.96 %
Therefore, per hour decay of the radioactive isotope is 0.96%.

Step-by-step explanation:
x/2 = 2x-3
x = 4x-6
3x = 6
x = 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Mistakes: The student did not distribute the 3 into 2, and the student did not distribute the 6 into negative 2. The student also left out the negative 2x in the first half of the equation.
Material=wall+2*side and material is 40 ft so:
40=w+2s
w=40-2s
Area=ws, using w from above we get:
A=(40-2s)s
A=40s-2s^2
dA/ds=40-4s and d2A/ds2=-4
Since d2A/ds2 is a constant negative acceleration, when dA/ds=0, A(s) is at an absolute maximum.
dA/ds=0 when 4s=40, s=10 ft
And since w=40-2s, w=20 ft
So the dimensions of the pen are 20 ft by 10 ft, with the 20 ft side being opposite the wall. And the maximum possible area is thus 200 ft^2
