Answer:
x = 1/14
Step-by-step explanation:
You can work it as is by subtacting ln(14), then taking antilogs:
ln(x) = -ln(14)
x = 14^-1
x = 1/14
___
Or you can rewrite to a single log and then take antilogs:
ln(14x) = 0
14x = 1
x = 1/14 . . . . . divide by the coeffient of x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Initial amount = 2112 g
- Time = 188 days
- Half-life = 47 days
188 days / 47 days = 4 periods
<u>Mercury left after 188 days:</u>
- 2112 * (1/2)^4 =
- 2112* 1/16 =
- 2112/16 =
- 132 g
