From the given, we have 232 90Th. Thorium has 90 protons in its nucleus, the number of neutrons is calculated by subtracting 90 from 232 which gives an answer of 142. Then, for the second given 228 88Ra, Radium has 88 protons and the number of its neutrons is calculated by subtracting 88 from 228 which is equal to 140.

The final equation that would give us the proper nuclear decay reaction,

232 90Th --> 228 88Ra + 4 2a

where 4 2a is an alpha particle.

What's the difference between 1,968 and 3,000? Check your answer using inverse operations.

Leto [7]

Using subtraction, you would take 3,000 and subtract 1968 from it to leave you 1,032. With that number, the answer to your question is "C"

Answer: $130.9^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The number of students in the first year is 800

The number of students in the second year is 950

The number of students in the third year is 1000

If this data is graphed on a pie chart, then the area percentage of area occupied by third years is

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1000}{1000+950+800}\times 100=36.36\%$

Now, the angle around the center of the circle is $360^{\circ}$

$\therefore \text{angle covered by third years=}0.3636\times 360^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow 130.896\approx 130.9^{\circ}$
