What are the roots of the equation x^2=5x+14 there are 2 of them show your work

Mathematics

fiasKO [112]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The solutions are: x=7 or x=-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is x^2=5x+14

We rewrite in the standard quadratic form to obtain;

x^2-5x-14=0

We split the middle term with -7,2 because their product is -14 and their sum is -5.

x^2-7x+2x-14=0

Factor by grouping;

x(x-7)+2(x-7)=0

(x-7)(x+2)=0

Either (x-7)=0 or (x+2)=0.

Either x=7 or x=-2.

Two different radioactive isotopes decay to 10% of their respective original amounts. Isotope A does this in 33 days, while isot
Andrews [41]

Answer:

The approximate difference in the half-lives of the isotopes is 66 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decay of an isotope is represented by the following differential equation:

\frac{dm}{dt} = -\frac{t}{\tau}

Where:

m - Current mass of the isotope, measured in kilograms.

t - Time, measured in days.

\tau - Time constant, measured in days.

The solution of the differential equation is:

m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }

Where m_{o} is the initial mass of the isotope, measure in kilograms.

Now, the time constant is cleared:

\ln \frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = -\frac{t}{\tau}

\tau = -\frac{t}{\ln \frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} }

The half-life of a isotope (t_{1/2}) as a function of time constant is:

t_{1/2} = \tau \cdot \ln2

t_{1/2} = -\left(\frac{t}{\ln\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} }\right) \cdot \ln 2

The half-life difference between isotope B and isotope A is:

\Delta t_{1/2} = \left| -\left(\frac{t_{A}}{\ln \frac{m_{A}(t)}{m_{o,A}} } \right)\cdot \ln 2+\left(\frac{t_{B}}{\ln \frac{m_{B}(t)}{m_{o,B}} } \right)\cdot \ln 2\right|

If \frac{m_{A}(t)}{m_{o,A}} = \frac{m_{B}(t)}{m_{o,B}} = 0.9, t_{A} = 33\,days and t_{B} = 43\,days, the difference in the half-lives of the isotopes is:

\Delta t_{1/2} = \left|-\left(\frac{33\,days}{\ln 0.90} \right)\cdot \ln 2 + \left(\frac{43\,days}{\ln 0.90} \right)\cdot \ln 2\right|

\Delta t_{1/2} \approx 65.788\,days

The approximate difference in the half-lives of the isotopes is 66 days.
