Recall that m(t) = (1/2)^t/h for radioactive decay, where h is the half-life. Suppose that a 500g sample of phosphorus-32 decays

katrin2010 [14]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Recall that m(t) = m.(1/2)^t/h for radioactive decay, where h is the half-life. Suppose that a 500 g sample of phosphorus-32 decays to 356 g over 7 days. Calculate the half life of the sample.

Answer: The half life of the sample of phosphorus-32 is $14.28days^{-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation used to calculate the half life of the sample is given as:

$m(t)=m_o(1/2)^{t/h}$

where,

m(t) = amount of sample after time 't' = 356 g

$m_o$ = initial amount of the sample = 500 g

t = time period = 7 days

h = half life of the sample = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$356=500\times (\frac{1}{2})^{7/h}\\\\h=14.28days^{-1}$

Hence, the half life of the sample of phosphorus-32 is $14.28days^{-1}$

each term is negative and 1/4 of previous term so the nth term is the n-1 term times -1/4 so f(n)= -1/4 f(n-1)

789/548x-89/887=688/8724 find x

Olin [163]

$\frac{789}{548}x- \frac{89}{887}=\frac{688}{8724}$

first we try to semplify as much as possible the fractions.

First we decompose the numbers

789 = 3 * 263

548 = 2 * 2 * 137 = 2^2

they have nothing in common, so the first fraction remains so

89 = 89 (prime number)

887 = 887 (prime number)

they have nothing in common, so the second one remains so

688 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 43 = 2^4 * 43

8724 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 727 = 2^2 * 3 * 727

they have 2^2 (=4) in common, so the numerator and the denominator can be devided by 4

$\frac{688}{8724}= \frac{688:4}{8724:4}=\frac{172}{2181}$

so:

$\frac{789}{548}x- \frac{89}{887}=\frac{172}{2181}$

now we calculate the common denominator

take the scomposition:

548 = 2^2 * 137

887 = 887

2181 = 3 * 727

take every number one time

so the common denominator is 2^2 * 137 * 887 * 727 * 3 = 1'060'131'756

now calculate every single numerator: first we divide each denominator by the common denominator, then we moltiply the result with each numerator

first fraction: 789/548

1060131756 / 548 = 1934547

1934547 * 789 = 1526357583

second fraction: 89/887

1060131756 / 887 = 1195188

1195188 * 89 = 106371732

third one: 172/2181

1060131756 / 2181 = 486076

486076 * 172 = 83605072

now we can delete the common denominator

1526357583x - 106371732 = 83605072

solve it

1526357583x = 83605072 + 106371732

1526357583x = 189976804

x = 1526357583 / 189976804

decompose

1526357583 = 887 * 3 * 3 * 727 * 263

189976804 = 137 * 2 * 2 * 211 * 53 * 31

nothing in common

x = 1526357583 / 189976804

The metro theater has 20 rows of seats with 18 seats in each row. Tickets cost $5. The theaters income in dollars if all seats a

jarptica [38.1K]

In a Metro there are:
20 rows of seats
18 seats in a row
and $5 per ticket

Using commutative property of Multiplication:
Therefore.
=> (20 x 18) x 5 = 5 x (18 x 20)
=> 360 x 5 = 5 x 360
=> 1800 = 1800

Therefore, they have $1800 income.
