Answer:
The expression is 20 - 50/5
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have the quotient of 50 and 5.
This is written as:
50/5
And we know that this is equal to 10, but let's leave it as 50/5 for now.
Now we subtract this FROM 20, then we have the number 20, and we subtract 50/5 from it, this is written as:
20 - 50/5
Now we can also solve this:
20 - 50/5 = 20 - 10 = 10
Given that the decay rate of the uranium is given to be 57%, this means that on the second day only 43% of the Uranium-233 will be left. The equation therefore, that will allow us to answer the question is that,
A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^n
where A(t) is the amount after n days, A(0) is the original amount, r is the decimal equivalent of the rate and n is the number of days. Substituting the known values,
A(t) = (3,820 pounds)*(1-0.57)^15
A(t) = 0.0121 pounds
This is unfortunately not found in the choices.
