Answer:

The half life of Pa-234 is approximately 0.0701656609 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for half life is calculated as:

t½ = t.In(2)/In(No/Nt)

Where:

t½ = Half life of the substance in days

t = Time elapsed in days

No = Beginning amount

Nt = End Amount

In the question,

t = Time elapsed = 10 days

No = Beginning amount = 5.14 × 10²²

Nt = End Amount = 6.43 × 10²¹

t½ = t.In(2)/In(No/Nt)

t½ = 10.In(2)/In(5.14 × 10²²/6.43 × 10²¹)

t½ = 6.9314718056/98.78723754

t½ = 0.0701656609 days

The half life of Pa-234 is approximately 0.0701656609 days

One Friday night, two large groups of people called Weston Taxi Service. The first group requested 2 sedans and 1 minivan, which
muminat

Answer:

Sedan: 4 passengers

Minivan: 6 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the following system of equations:

\begin{cases}2s+1m=14 \\2s+2m=20\end{cases}, where s represents the number of people a sedan can seat and m represents the number of people a minivan can seat.

Subtracting the first equation from the second, we have:

2s+2m-(2s+1m)=20-14,\\\\m=6

Now plug in m=6 in any of the equations to solve for s:

2s+1(6)=14, \\2s=8, \\s=4

Verify that the solution pair (4, 6) works:

2(4)+1(6)=14\: \checkmark \\2(4)+2(6)=20 \: \checkmark

Therefore, a sedan can hold 4 passengers and a minivan can hold 6 passengers.

Ok guys i have only 1 hr to get this. Determine the y-intercept for the equation 3x + 2y = 12. HELP
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

x= -2/3 y+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

3x+2y=12

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

3x+2y+−2y=12+−2y

3x=−2y+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x

3

=

−2y+12
