<span>As the age of the U-235 sample is 2.631 billion years, and the half-life of U-235 is 713 million years, the sample has undergone 2.361 X 1,000,000,000 / 713 X 1,000,000 = 3.69 half lives. In each half-life the sample reduces to half its original weight according to the radioactive Half-Life Formula:
ln (Nt /N0) = -kt, where N0 = mass of the original weight of radioactive material, Nt = mass of radioactive material at time t, k = decay constant and t = time interval . We have to put Nt/N0 = 1/2 for time interval = half-life.</span>
Answer:
<u><em>x = 80</em></u>
<u><em>y = 130</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 angles are supplementary. so, x-30 + x+50 = 180.
We solve and get 2x = 180-20
<u><em>x = 80</em></u>
y = x+50, because of parallel rules.
<u><em>y = 130</em></u>
