To solve for the mass defect of the given atom, add up the individual masses of the nucleons, protons and neutrons. In this case, the total mass of the nucleons is solved through 8x(1.0073 + 1.0087) and is equal to 16.128. Subtracting the mass of the intact nucleus which is 15.9994 gives 0.1286. Thus, the mass defect is 0.1286.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
x - 2y = 12
5x + 3y = -44
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
x - 2y = 12
- [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply everything by -5: -5x + 10y = -60
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
-5x + 10y = -60
5x + 3y = -44
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine 2 equations: 13y = -104
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 13 on both sides: y = -8
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: x - 2y = 12
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x - 2(-8) = 12
- Multiply: x + 16 = 12
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 16 on both sides: x = -4
Answer— 2
Explanation- simple math
Answer:
81-25k²
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to write the expression for "The quantity 81 minus 5k, squared".
Square of any number x is given by x².
Square of 5k is given by : (5k)²= 5²×k²=25k²
Now subtract 25k² from 81.
It means we get : 81-25k². It is required expression.
