Mathematics

Answer:

  a14 = -40,960

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence has a first term of 5 and a common ratio of -10/5 = -2, so the n-th term is given by ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

  an = 5·(-2)^(n-1)

The 14th term is then ...

  a14 = 5·(-2)^(14-1) = -5·2^13 = -5·8192

  a14 = -40,960

The half-life of Radium-226 is 1590 years. If a sample contains 200 mg, how many mg will remain after 1000 years?
adell [148]

Answer: 129.33 g

Step-by-step explanation:

$$Let $p=A \cdot e^{n t}$ \\$(p=$ present amount, $A=$ initial amount, $n=$ decay rate, $t=$ time)

\begin{aligned}&\Rightarrow \text { Given } p=\frac{A}{2} \ a t  \ t=1590 \\&\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}=e^{1590n} \Rightarrow n=\frac{\ln (1 / 2)}{1590}=-0.00043594162\end{aligned}

$$If $A=200 \mathrm{mg}$ and $t=1000$ then,$$\begin{aligned}P &=200 e^{\left(\frac{\ln \left(1/2\right)}{1590}\right) \cdot 1000} \text \\\\&=129.33 \text { grams}\end{aligned}$$

Answer:

3.38

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y + z = 16.9

x = 2y

y = z

y=y

2y (x) + y(y) + y(z) = 16.0

5y = 16.9

y = 3.38
