The half life of a decaying substance is defined as the time at which the substance decreases to one-half of its original value. In this case, given hlf-life of 10 years and an original mass of 50 grams, after 10 years, the isotope mass becomes 50*0.5 or 25 grams. Answer is B.
I now how to do this, but I need a clearer picture. lol
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The two points can be made into a right triangle with the two sides defined by two lines drawn from the two given points. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse, the distance between the two points. See attached graph.
6^2 + 2^2 = x^2
36 + 4 = x^2
x^2 = 40
x = 6.32
Answer:
5 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
* is multiplication
1 3/4 is 1.75
so
24/1.75 = 72/×
1.75 * 72 = 24 * x
126 = 24x
24x = 126
x = 5.25 or 5 1/4
