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: 900π

Step-by-step explanation: To calculate the area of a circle, we do πr^2, where r is the radius. The radius is 30, so the answer is 900π.

Hope this helps!

I need the correct answer please

So first step is to simplify everything outside of the radicals.
6*2=12
:. The expression is
__ __
12*\| 8 * \| 2
Now we know that
__ __ __
\| 8 = \| 4 * \| 2

And
__ __
\| 2 * \| 2 = 2

And
__
\| 4 = 2

So if we incorporate what we know into the equation, we can figure it out.
So let's first expand the radical 8.
__ __ __
12*\| 4 * \| 2 * \| 2

Now by simplifying the radical four and combining the radical twos, we can get all whole numbers.
12*2*2
Which equals 48.
