Part A: Maria's solution is incorrect. This is because to find x, we want to just have one x on the left side instead of six, so we divide the equation by six, not subtract it.

The correct steps:

1) 6x = 48

2) 6x/6 = 48/6

3) x = 8


Part B: This equation will only have 1 solution, as the only way to solve this is divide 6 from 48

Answer:

A. Malia's answer is incorrect because to find x we need to have one x on the left side instead of 6 so we divide the equation by 6 not subtract it.

B. Only 1 solution is in the equation.

After releasing of radioactive material into.The atnosphere from.A nuclear.Powe plant in a country in 1988, the hay in that coun
Radda [10]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

<em>After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere  from a nuclear power plant, the hay was contaminated by iodine  131 ( half-life, 8 days). If it is all right to feed the hay to cows  when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers  need to wait to use this hay? </em>

iodine's half life (we are given x, we need to find b):

0.5A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

x = 8 days

we eliminate A₀ from both sides

0.5 = eᵇ⁸

ln 0.5 = ln eᵇ⁸

-0.69315 = b8

b = -0.69315 / 8 = -0.08664

since the farmers need to wait until only 10% of the iodine remains (we already calculated b, now we need to find x):

0.1A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

0.1 = eᵇˣ

ln 0.1 = bx

where b = -0.08664

x = ln 0.1 / -0.08664  = -2.302585 / -0.08664  = 26.58 days

Tan^2 70° -sec^2 70°​
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of tan² 70° -sec² 70°​.

We know that,

\sec^2\theta-\tan^2\theta=1 ...(1)

We can write the given expression as :

tan² 70° -sec² 70° = -(-tan² 70° +sec² 70°)

=-(sec² 70°-tan² 70°)

Using identity (1)

=-(1)

= -1

Hence, the value of the given expression is -1.
