Answer:

Abundance of isotope 79Br=51% and abundance of 81Br=49%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mass of 79Br=78.9183 u

Mass of 81Br=80.9163 u

Average atomic mass of bromine=79.90 u

We have to find the relative abundance of the two bromine isotopes.

Let x be the abundance of 79Br

Then , abundance of 81Br isotopes=1-x

Average atomic mass=Mass of isotope(abundance of isotope)+Mass of other isotope(abundance of other isotope)

Using the formula

79.90=78.9183x+(1-x)80.9163

79.90=78.9183x+80.9163-80.9163x

79.90-80.9163=-1.998x

-1.0163=-1.998x

x=\frac{1.0163}{-1.998}=0.51

Percentage of isotope with abundance 0.51=0.51\times 100=51%

Abundance of other isotope=1-0.51=0.49

Percentage of other isotope with abundance 0.49=0.49\times 100=49%

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep the order of opperations in mind when doing this (PEMDAS). First, solve what is inside the parentheses (6-1). Then, solve the exponent and the multiplication (6² and 5×5). Finally, finish adding and subtracting to get the answer.

The correct answer is C.


You can tell this by factoring the equation to get the zeros. To start, pull out the greatest common factor.


f(x) = x^4 + x^3 - 2x^2


Since each term has at least x^2, we can factor it out.


f(x) = x^2(x^2 + x - 2)


Now we can factor the inside by looking for factors of the constant, which is 2, that add up to the coefficient of x. 2 and -1 both add up to 1 and multiply to -2. So, we place these two numbers in parenthesis with an x.


f(x) = x^2(x + 2)(x - 1)


Now we can also separate the x^2 into 2 x's.


f(x) = (x)(x)(x + 2)(x - 1)


To find the zeros, we need to set them all equal to 0


x = 0


x = 0


x + 2 = 0

x = -2


x - 1 = 0

x = 1


Since there are two 0's, we know the graph just touches there. Since there are 1 of the other two numbers, we know that it crosses there.

What is the answer to the question
S_A_V [24]

The equation of the parallel line is y = –2x – 11.

Solution:

Given equation of the line is y = –2x – 5.

Slope of this line is (m_1) = –2

To write the equation parallel to this line and passes through (–4, –3).

<em>If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope.</em>

\Rightarrow m_1=m_2

\Rightarrow m_2 =-2

<u>Point-slope formula:</u>

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Substitute the given values in the formula, we get

y-(-3)=-2(x-(-4))

y+3=-2(x+4)

y+3=-2x-8

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

y+3-3=-2x-8-3

y=-2x-11

Hence the equation of the parallel line is y = –2x – 11.
