Answer:

Answer ::+-6

Step-by-step explanation:

x:3=12:x

or, x/3 = 12/x

Doing cross multiplication,

x^2=36

Putting sqare root on both sides,

x= sqrt. 36

x= +- 6

Therefore x=+-6.

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Express the ratio in fractional form, that is

\frac{x}{3} = \frac{12}{x} ( cross- multiply )

x² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± \sqrt{36} = ± 6

Thus x = 6 is the positive value

a 34 gram sample of a substance that's used to treat thyroid disorders has a k-value of 0.137. find the substance's half-life, i
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

5.1 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

initial amount of substance = 34 grams

k-value = 0.137

To find the half life of this substance we will use following formula

N(0)/2 = N(0)e^{-kt}

here N(0) is initial amount of substance

        t is time in days

Plug values in the formula

34 /2 = 34e^{-0.137t}

1/2 = e^{-0.137t}

Take logarithm on both sides

ln(1/2) = ln( e^{-0.137t})

ln(1/2) = -0.137t

t = ln(1/2) / -0.137

t = 5.059

t ≈ 5.1 days (nearest to tenths)

What is the greatest common factor of theses variables
DerKrebs [107]
B is the answer!

Explanation:
m^2 n^2 fits into both, you can take m^2 n^2 out of it both.

m is a common factor since you can take m out of both but it’s not the greatest common factor.

2n & 2m wouldn’t even be a common factor bc there is no 2n or 2m in neither.

two people were doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes then they stopped for lunch at 1:20pm at what time did they start doin
MrMuchimi

Answer: The answer would be at 11:45.

Step-by-step explanation: First I though, if they stoppedd for lunch at 1:20 and they've been doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes, I would subtract. 1 hour taken away from 1:20 would be 12:20. Then, since it would be hard to subtract 35 minutes from 12:20, 35 minutes - 20 minutes = 15 minutes. 12:20 subtract 20 minutes = 12:00. 12:00 - 15 minutes equal to 11:45. I hope this helps. I know this explanation can be confusing but it's the best I can do at the moment.
