Answer:

t= 3.1 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A = A_0 e kt

Half life(1/2) = 26 yrs

1/2 = 1_0 e^k.26

ln(1/2) = ln(e^26k)

26k. ln(e) = ln(1/2)

k = 1/26* ln(1/2)

k = -0.0267

A = A_0 e^kt

0.92 = 1.e^(-0.0267)t

ln(0.92) = ln(e^(-0.0267)t

-0.0267t .ln(e) = ln(0.92)

t = ln(0.92) / -0.0267

t = 3.122

t = 3.1years (approximate to 1 d.p)

Answer:

  A.  57 7/9 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism (cuboid) is the product of its dimensions.

  V = LWH

  V = (4 1/3 ft)(3 1/3 ft)(4 ft)

If you drop the fractions, this becomes ...

  V = (4 ft)(3 ft)(4 ft) = 48 ft³

You know the fractions add some amount to this, so you know the volume will be somewhat larger than 48 ft³. The only reasonable choice is A: 57 7/9 ft³.

__

If you feel the need to compute the volume exactly, you can do so using improper fractions.

  V = (13/3 ft)(10/3 ft)(4 ft) = 520/9 ft³ = 57 7/9 ft³
