Answer:

0.0625 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The half-life of radium-226 is 1620 years.

Formula of half life:

P(t) =P_0(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{1620}

So. P_0 = initial amount

P(t)= mass of radioactive material at time interval (t)

1 half life = 1620 years

4 half lives = 4 * 1620

So, t = 4 * 1620

Substituting the values :

P(t) =1 (\frac{1}{2})^\frac{4\times 1620 }{1620}

P(t) = (\frac{1}{2})^4

P(t) = \frac{1}{16}

P(t) =0.0625

Hence  0.0625 g of one gram of radium-226 will remain unchanged after four half-lives

Option C is correct.

PLEASE HELP<br> Given f(x)= (x-5)/3 SOLVE FOR f^-1(3)
professor190 [17]
As you already know, to get the inverse of any expression, we start off by doing a quick switcharoo on the variables, and then solve for "y", so let's do so,

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=\cfrac{x-5}{3}\qquad inverse\implies \boxed{x}=\cfrac{\boxed{y}-5}{3}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;3x=y-5\implies 3x+5=\stackrel{f^{-1}(x)}{y}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;3(3)+5=f^{-1}(3)\implies 14=f^{-1}(3)
