A 14 gram sample of a substance that's used to preserve fruit and vegetables has a k-value of 0.1092. Find the substance's half-
nignag [31]

Answer:

t = 6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

N=Noe^(-kt)

No = 14 grams

k = .1092

We want to find t when N = 7 or 1/2 of 14

N=Noe^(-kt)

7 = 14 e ^ (-.1092t)

Divide each side by 14

1/2 = e ^ (-.1092t)

take the natural log of each side

ln (1/2) = ln e ^ (-.1092t)

ln (1/2) = -.1092t

Divide each side by -.1092

ln (1/2)/ -.1092 = t

t≈6.3475

Rounding to the nearest tenth

t = 6.3

Anvisha [2.4K]
8-3(p-4)= 2p
⇒ 8 -3p -3(-4)= 2p (distributive property)
⇒ 8 -3p+ 12= 2p
⇒ 8+12= 2p+3p
⇒ 20= 5p
⇒ 20/5= p
⇒ 4= p
