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

What is the vertex of (x) = –16x² + 64x + 80.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k - the vertex form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (h, k)

$f(x) = -16x^2+ 64x + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(x^2- 4x) + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(\underline {x^2-2\cdot2x\cdot2+2^2}-2^2) + 80\\\\f(x) = -16\big[(x-2)^2-4\big] + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(x-2)^2+64 + 80\\\\\bold{f(x)=-16(x-2)^2+124\quad\implies\quad h=2\,,\quad k=124}$

<u>The vertex is </u><u>(2, 124)</u>
