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

What is the approximate positive value of the x-coordinate of the point of intersection of p(x)=5x^2-3 and q(x)=2x+1
Advocard [28]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

x = 1.117

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the two equations:

p(x) = 5x² - 3

q(x) = 2x + 1

On the graph below, the positive point of intersection is at (1.117, 3.233).

Positive x-value = 1.117.

What is the argument of -5\sqrt{3}+ 5i?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

150 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Graphing the complex number we see the angle terminates in the second quadrant. This means the argument, the angle, will be between 90 degrees and 180 degrees.

So if we create a right triangle with that point after graphing it. We see the height of that triangle is 5 because that is the imaginary part. The base of that triangle has length 5\sqrt{3}. The problem is this doesn't give us any part of the angle we want, but it does give us the complementary of the part of the angle that is in second quadrant.

Let's find the complementary angle.

So the opposite side of the complementary angle is 5.

The adjacent side of the complementary angle is 5\sqrt{3}.

\tan(\theta)=\frac{5}{5\sqrt{3}}

\tan(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})

\theta=30

So 90-30=60.

The answer therefore 60+90=150.
