Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
As an example, iodine-131 is a radioisotope with a half-life of 8 days. It decays by beta particle emission into xenon-131. After eight days have passed, half of the atoms of any sample of iodine-131 will have decayed, and the sample will now be 50% iodine-131 and 50% xenon-131.
50 grams to 25 grams is one half-life. 25 grams to 12.5 grams is another half-life. So, for 50 grams to decay to 12.5 grams, two half-lives, which would take 36 days total, would need to pass. This means each half-life for element X is 18 days.
Answer: combining like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given to lines XY and VW. Now we need to determine the expression that correctly states that these lines are congruent. One possibility to prove that they're congruent is if they are two separate lines and:
XA is congruent to VB,
AY is congruent to BW
XA + AY = XY
VB + BW = VW
Then we can conclude that if the statements above are true, XY and VW must be congruent to each other.
Another possibility is that they are two sides of an isosceles rectangle XYVW and are opposite sides of the rectangle. <span />

Explained
I / PT = R
I = The amount of interest paid
P = The amount paid before adding interest
T = The time (weeks, months, years)
R = Interest Rate (must move 2 decimal place to the right)
Answer:
-3
1.1 ×10
Explanation: when you divide it it comes to .0011
and with significant figures you move the decimal over until it is right after the first number that is not zero. so that would change .0011 to 1.1
also with significant figures if you move the decimal to the right you exponent by the 10 will be negative and if you move it to the left it will be positive. so I. this case we are moving g to the right 3 digits so our exponent will be negative 3.
and because the answer is still really. 0011 you multiply
-3
1.1 × 10
