Answer:
34 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
If the remaining sample has 30.26 grams of radioactive substance, and 11% of it decayed, that means that 30.26 grams is 89% of the original. Let the original be x.
30.26=0.89x
Multiply both by one hundred
3026=89x
Divide both by 89
34=x
x=original, so the original was 34 grams.
#1.
[4x = -12y + 16 and x + 3y = 4]
One answer
#2.
Here, y = 4x + 3
y - 4x = 3
Multiply by 2,
2y - 8x = 6
Compare with second equation,
6 ≠ 3
In short, System of Equation does not have any solution. [ Option D ]
#3.
2y=6
3x-6y=18
Divide first equation by 2: y=3
Substitute y=3 into second equation: 3x-6(3)=18
Solve for x: 3x=36 x=12
Therefore there is only one solution: x=12 y=3
#4.
y - 7x = -14
7y - 49x = -2
Rewrite the first equation as "y =" so that it can be substituted into the second equation and solve for x.
y = 7x - 14
7(7x - 14) - 49x = -2
49x - 98 - 49x = -2
-98 = -2
Since the variables cancel and the equation is not true there is no solution.
The lines are parallel and will not intersect.
Hi there!

I believe your answer is:
14

Here’s why:
- I have graphed the given solution in a program. The parabola intercepts at (4,0) and (14,0).
- The x-intercepts of a parabola are the solutions to the equation. The other solution should be 14.
