Answer:

B = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

C = 2B -18 is the direct translation of the statement given in the question.

Since the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180.

A+B+C = 180

90 + B + (2B-18) = 180

solve for B

B = 36

Factoring by grouping 12x^2+11x+2=0

Alex_Xolod [135]

Step-by-step explanation:

(12)(2) = 24 Find 2 numbers whose product is 24 and whose sum is 11 (8 and 3 work)

Rewrite 11x as 8x+3x and factor by grouping:

12x2 + 8x + 3x + 2 = 0

4x(3x+2) + 1(3x+2) = 0

(3x+2)(4x+1) = 0

x = -2/3 or x = -1/4

If a substance decays at a rate of 25% every 10 years, how long will it take 512 grams of the substance to decay to 121.5 grams

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

It will take 50 years to decay from 512 grams to 121.5 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decay formula :

$N=N_0e^{-\lambda t}$

where

N= amount of substance after t time

N₀= initial of substance

t= time.

A substance decays at a rate 25% every 10 years.

So, remaining amount of the substance is = (100%-25%)= 75%

$\frac{N}{N_0}=\frac{75\%}{100\%}=\frac{75}{100}=\frac34$ , t= 10

$N=N_0e^{-\lambda t}$

$\Rightarrow \frac {N}{N_0}=e^{-\lambda t}$

$\Rightarrow \frac34 =e^{-\lambda .10}$

Taking ln both sides

$\Rightarrow ln|\frac34| =ln|e^{-\lambda .10}|$

$\Rightarrow ln|\frac34|=-10\lambda$

$\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{ ln|\frac34|}{-10}$

Now , N₀= 512 grams, N= 121.5 grams, t=?

$N=N_0e^{-\lambda t}$

$\therefore 121.5=512e^{-\frac{ln|\frac34|}{-10}.t}$

$\Rightarrow 121.5=512e^{\frac{ln|\frac34|}{10}.t}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{121.5}{512}=e^{\frac{ln|\frac34|}{10}.t}$

Taking ln both sides

$\Rightarrow ln|\frac{121.5}{512}|=ln|e^{\frac{ln|\frac34|}{10}.t}|$

$\Rightarrow ln|\frac{121.5}{512}|={\frac{ln|\frac34|}{10}.t}$

$\Rightarrow t=\frac{ln|\frac{121.5}{512}|}{\frac{ln|\frac34|}{10}}$

$\Rightarrow t=\frac{10.ln|\frac{121.5}{512}|}{{ln|\frac34|}}$

⇒t=50 years

It will take 50 years to decay from 512 grams to 121.5 grams.

Solve for n. 11(n – 1) + 35 = 3n n = –6 n = –3 n = 3 n = 6

Montano1993 [528]

11n-11+35=3n
11n+24=3n
11n-3n=-24
8n=-24
n=-24/8
n=-3
