Answer:

You will have 120g Yttrium remaining

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the half life is 10 hours, and you are required to find out the remaining amount after 30 hours, you can do 30 / 10 = 3.

Yttrium undergoes its half life 3 times in 30 hours.

What you can do is divide the original amount by 2 thrice.

960/2 = 480 (1st half life)

480/2 = 240 (2nd half life)

240/2 = 120 (3rd half life)

You will have 120g Yttrium remaining

The following table shows the estimated populations and annual growth rates for four countries in the year 2000. Find the expect
Liula [17]

Answer:

After 25 years the population will be:

  • Australia: 22271200
  • China: 1580220878
  • Mexico: 157380127
  • Zaire: 112794819

Step-by-step explanation:

Growth rate problem that has a growth rate proportional to the population size can be solved using the equation:

 P(t) = P₀eʳᵗ

  • t is your unit of time. It could be days, or hours, or minutes. It changes depending on each problem. In this problem, t is measured in years because you're jumping from 2000 to 2025. Years just makes the most sense to measure that leap in time.
  • P(t) is the population at time t. An example in this problem could be P(20) would be the population 20 years after the initial count. or maybe P(12) would be the population 12 years after the initial count. or P(0) would be the initial count of the population.
  • P₀ is the initial population at P(0)
  • r is the growth rate.<u><em> Don't forget to convert the percentage to its decimal form</em></u>

Now that everything is set out, lets use the equation to solve for our answer.

P(t) = P₀eʳᵗ

<u>Australia:</u>

P(t)=(19169000)e^{(0.006)t}

after 25 years

P(25)=(19169000)e^{(0.006)(25)}=22271200.6

<u>China:</u>

P(t) = (1261832000)e^{(.009)t}

after 25 years:

P(25)=(1261832000)e^{(.009)(25)}=1580220878

<u>Mexico:</u>

P(t) = (100350000)e^{(0.018)t}

after 25 years:

P(25)=(100350000)e^{(0.018)(25)}=157380127.8

<u>Zaire:</u>

P(t) = (51965000)e^{(0.031)t}

after 25 years:

P(25)=(51965000)e^{(0.031)(25)}=112794819.9
