Answer:

1. 1343 years

2. 9 hours

3. 39 years

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given, half-life of carbon = 5730 years.

∴ λ = 0.693/half-life of carbon = 0.693/5730 = 0.000121

If N₀ = 100 then N = 85

Formula:- N = N₀*e^(-λt)

∴ 85 = 100 * e^(-0.000121t)

∴㏑(-0.85)=-0.000121t

∴ t = 1343 years

2. Given half-life of aspirin = 12 hours

λ = 0.693/12 = 0.5775

Also N₀ = 100 then 70 will disintegrate and N = 30 will remain disintegrated.

∴ 70 = 100 *e^(-0.05775t)

0.70 = e^(-0.05775t)

㏑(0.70) = -0.05775t

∴ t = 9 hours

3. The population of the birds as as A=A₀*e^(kt)

Given that the population of birds fell from 1400 from 1000, We are asked how much time it will take for the population to drop below 100, let that be x years.

The population is 1400 when f = 0, And it is 1000 when f = 5

We can write the following equation :

1400 = 1000e^(5t).

∴1400/1000 = e^(5k)

∴ k = ㏑(1.4)/5

We need to find x such that 1400/100 = e^(xk)

14 = e^(xk)

∴ x = 39 years

Answer:

$\frac{7}{8} - \frac{2}{3 } \\ \frac{7 \times 3}{8 \times 3} - \frac{2 \times 8}{3 \times 8 } \\ \frac{21 - 16}{24 } \\ = \frac{5}{24}$

86 is 45% of what number

Alik [6]

Hello there! We are talking about 86 being part of a number, so we are looking for the whole. To find the number we are looking for, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

86/x = 45/100

86 is 45% of a number. We know the part, so now we are looking for the whole. 45% is part of 100%, so we put that part together. Cross multiply the digits. 100 * 86 is 8,600. 45 * x is 45x. That simplifies to 8,600 = 45x. Now, divide each side by 45 to isolate the x. 45x/45 cancels out. 8,600/45 is 191.1111111 or 191 1/9 in fraction form. There. x = 191 1/9 86 is 45% or 191 1/9

Note: Or, if you have to round to the nearest whole number, the answer is 191, or if you have to round to the nearest tenth, the answer is 191.1. It all depends on if the answer needs to be rounded or exact.

The heights of women aged 20 to 29 are approximately normal with mean 64 inches and standard deviation 2.7 inches. Men the same

ohaa [14]

Answer:

z=(x-mu)/o

Step-by-step explanation:

X - Heights of women aged 20 to 29: X is N(64, 2.7)

Y - Heights of men aged 20 to 29: X is N(69.3, 2.8)

a) X=6'=72"

b) Y = 72"

c) 72' women can be taken as very tall but men moderately taller than average

d) Y<5'5" =65"

e) X>73"

Almost 0% can be taken

f) IQR =Q3-Q1

In the figure below, the two triangular faces of the prism are fight triangles with sides of length 3, 4, and 5. The other three

olasank [31]

The figure of the prism is attached below.

The total surface area of the prism equals the sum of areas of two triangles and the three rectangles.

Surface Area of Prism = Area of 2 Triangles + Area of 3 Rectangles.

Area of a Triangle = 0.5 x Base x Height
Area of a Triangle = 0.5 x 3 x 4 = 6 square units

There are 3 rectangles. From the figure we can see that the bottom most rectangle has the dimensions 4 by 6. The left most rectangle has the dimensions 3 x 6 and the right most rectangle has the dimensions 5 by 6.

So, the Area of 3 rectangles will be = (4 x 6) + (3 x 6) + (5 x 6) = 72 square units

The Surface Area of the prism will be:

Surface Area = 2 (4) + 72 = 84 square units

Thus the correct answer is option A
