Step-by-step explanation:
so, that means we want to find the time t (days) after which N = No/2
because "half-life" means the amount of time until half of the substance has disappeared (or transformed into something else).
so, we have
No/2 = No × e^(-0.1481×t)
No = 2× No × e^(-0.1481×t)
1 = 2×e^(‐0.1481×t)
1/2 = 0.5 = e^(-0.1481×t)
ln(0.5) = -0.1481×t
t = ln(0.5)/-0.1481 = 4.680264555... ≈ 4.7 days
Answer:
the answer is D {-5, -13}
Total work amount
6 men * 14 days
84 men days
If it is done within 21 days, need x men
84 men days = x men * 21 days
x = 84/21 men
x = 4 men
