(Answer PLEASE-)) In the figure below identify the scale factor and determine the length of side E in figure B.

The half-life of a radioactive substance is the time it takes for a quantity of the substance to decay to half of the initial am

posledela

Step-by-step walkthrough:

a.

Well a standard half-life equation looks like this.

$N = N_0 * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/p$

$N_0$ is the starting amount of parent element.

$N$ is the end amount of parent element

$t$ is the time elapsed

$p$ is a half-life decay period

We know that the starting amount is 74g, and the period for a half-life is 2.8 days.

Therefore you can create a function based off of the original equation, just sub in the values you already know.

$N(t) = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days$

b.

This is easy now that we have already made the function. Here we just reuse it, but plug in 2.8 days.

$N(t) = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days} = N(2.8days) = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{2.8days/2.8days}\\= 74g * \frac{1}{2} = 37g$

c.

Now we just gotta do some algebra. Use the original function but this time, replace $N(t)$ with 10g and solve algebraically.

$10g = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days}\\\\\frac{10g}{74g} = (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days}$

Take the log of both sides.

$log(\frac{5}{37}) = log((\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days})$

Use the exponent rule for log laws that, $log(b^x) = x*log(b)$

$log(\frac{5}{37}) = \frac{t}{2.8days} * log(\frac{1}{2})$

$\frac{log(\frac{5}{37})}{log(\frac{1}{2})} = \frac{t}{2.8days}$

$2.8 * \frac{log(\frac{5}{37})}{log(\frac{1}{2})} = t$

slap that in your calculator and you get

$t = 8.1 days$

If I buy a sweatshirt for $30, and the sales tax is 7% in my state, how much will I pay for the sweatshirt, including the sales

algol13

Answer:

$32.10

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have sales tax, you would first convert the percentage to decimal, or 0.07. Then you would take this number, and add it to one before you multiply it by the price of the sweatshirt. This makes sure that you're not just calculating the sales tax, but the overall price of the shirt. So if you multiply:

30 x 1.07 = 32.1

Add the units, and you get $32.10

Hope this helps!
