3 0

Answer:

The player answer correctly 30 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to develop the information that gives us as 2 equations

x = correct answer

y = incorrect answer

z = score = 40

h = total answer = 50

2x - y = z               x + y = h

2x - y = 40             x + y = 50

we clear the x of one equation and replace the value of x in the other equation

x = 50 - y

2x - y = 40

2(50 - y) - y = 40

100 - 2y - y = 40

-3y = 40 -100

y = -60/-3

y = 20

x = 50 - y

x = 50 - 20

x = 30

the half-life of uranium -238 is 4.5 × 10 to the power of 9 years. The half-life of uranium-238 than that of uranium-234
Anika [276]

Answer:

Uranium-234 is an isotope of uranium. In natural uranium and in uranium ore, U-234 occurs as an indirect decay product of uranium-238, but it makes up only 0.0055% (55 parts per million) of the raw uranium because its half-life of just 245,500 years is only about 1/18,000 as long as that of U-238.

Consider the following functions. f={(−4,−1),(1,1),(−3,−2),(−5,2)} and g={(1,1),(2,−3),(3,−1)}: Find (f−g)(1).
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtraction of functions has the property:

  • (f−g)(1) = f(1) - g(1)

f={(−4,−1),(1,1),(−3,−2),(−5,2)}  has (1,1) means that f maps 1 to 1, therefore f(1) = 1

g={(1,1),(2,−3),(3,−1)}  has (1,1), means that g maps 1 to 1, therefore g(1)=1

As a Result, since (f−g)(1) = f(1) - g(1), we have (f−g)(1) = 1-1=0
