Every 56 seconds, the radioactive substance is divided in half.
224 / 56 = 4
We need to cut the substance in half 4 times.
896 / 2 = 448
448 / 2 = 224
224 / 2 = 112
112 / 2 = 56
After 224 seconds, there will be 56 grams of the radioactive substance left over
Answer:
960
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to figure out what 1/4th of 640 is, which is 160.
It says that number is 1/6th of boys, so you multiply by the inverse.
160x6 = 960
Answer:
m=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the 12 over to the other side so it will be 4m=12, then divide each side by 4 to get m=3
Find the line that is normal to the parabola at the given point
remember that normal means perpendicular
perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
we can use point slope form to write the equation of the line since we are given the point (1,0)
we just need the slope
take derivitive
y'=1-2x
at x=1
y'=1-2(1)
y'=1-2
y'=-1
the slope is -1
the perpendicular of that slope is what number we can multiply to get -1
-1 times what=-1?
what=1
duh
so
point (1,0) and slope 1
y-0=1(x-1)
y=x-1 is da equation
solve for where y=x-1 and y=x-x² intersect
set equatl to each other since equal y
x-1=x-x²
x²-1=0
factor difference of 2 perfect squares
(x-1)(x+1)=0
set to zero
x-1=0
x=1
we got this point already
x+1=0
x=-1
sub back
y=-1-(-1)²
y=-1-(1)
y=-1-1
y=-2
it intersects at (-1,-2)
