Every 56 seconds, the radioactive substance is divided in half.
224 / 56 = 4
We need to cut the substance in half 4 times.
896 / 2 = 448
448 / 2 = 224
224 / 2 = 112
112 / 2 = 56
After 224 seconds, there will be 56 grams of the radioactive substance left over
Answer: 77°
Step-by-step explanation:
First we are going to find x and then insert it in 18x +5 to be able to get our <WZX
But to find x, we will have to apply the the exterior angle theorem
The exterior angle theorem state that : the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior anges
Using this theorem, then from the diagram above ;
18x + 5 = 48 + 8x - 3
we collect like term
18x - 8x = 48-3-5
10x = 40
Divide bothside by 10
10x/10 = 40/10
x = 4
but <WZX = 18x + 5
Then we substitute x=4
<WZX = 18(4) + 5
<WZX = 72 +5
<WZX =77
Therefore the measure of <WZX is 77°
The other two angles would also be 120 and 40 because the opposite angles of parallelograms are equal
