The solution to the system of equation below is (−2, −1). 2x − 3y = −1 11x − 9y = −13 When the first equation is multiplied by −

3, the sum of the two equations is equivalent to 5x = −10.

We are given with two equations 2x − 3y = −1 and <span>11x − 9y = −13. The problem says that when the first equation is multiplied by -3 which results to -6x + 9y = 3, the sum of the resulting equation and the second one is equal to 5x = -10. We verify this: -6x + 11x = 5x while -9 y and 9 y cancels out. 3+-13 equals -10. Hence the total is really 5x = - 10.</span>

A breeder reactor converts uranium-238 into an isotope of plutonium-239 at a rate proportional to the amount of uranium-238 pres
topjm [15]

Let U(t) denote the amount of uranium-238 in the reactor at time t. As conversion to plutonium-239 occurs, the amount of uranium will decrease, so the conversion rate is negative. Because the rate is proportional to the current amount of uranium, we have

\dfrac{\mathrm dU}{\mathrm dt}=-kU

where k>0 is constant. Separating variables and integrating both sides gives

\dfrac{\mathrm dU}U=-k\,\mathrm dt\implies\ln|U|=-kt+C\implies U=Ce^{-kt}

Suppose we start some amount u. This means that at time t=0 we have U(0)=u, so that

u=Ce^{-0k}\implies C=u\implies U=ue^{-kt}

We're given that after 10 years, 99.97% of the original amount of uranium remains. This means (if t is taken to be in years) for some starting amount u,

0.9997u=ue^{-10k}\implies k=-\dfrac{\ln(0.9997)}{10}

The half-life is the time t_{1/2} it takes for the starting amount u to decay to half, 0.5u:

0.5u=ue^{-kt_{1/2}}\implies t_{1/2}=-\dfrac{\ln(0.5)}k=\dfrac{10\ln2}{\ln(0.9997)}

or about 23,101 years. Notice that it doesn't matter what the actual starting amount is, the half-life is independent of that.

iren2701 [21]
Ben has mixed up the digit for millions and hundred thousands: he wrote 5 in the place for millions and 6 in the place for hundred thousands, but it should be the other way. I think that he should exchange those two digits in the faulty report.

If 6-x=2(x-6) what is the value of x? need steps!!
V125BC [204]
6 - x = 2(x - 6)

the first step, following PEMDAS, is to distribute the 2 to the inside of your parentheses:
6 - x = 2x - 12 ... subtract 2x
6 - 3x = -12 ... subtract 6
-3x = -18 ... divide by -3
x = 6 is the answer
