Plug the given x and y values (x, y) into the equations and solve
It look like the second equation is the answer.
The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:
The half-life of a certain radioactive substance is 46 days. There are 12.6 g present initially.
When will there be less than 1 g remaining?
<u>Answer:</u> The time required for a radioactive substance to remain less than 1 gram is 168.27 days.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
All radioactive decay processes follow first order reaction.
To calculate the rate constant by given half life of the reaction, we use the equation:
where,
= half life period of the reaction = 46 days
k = rate constant = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
The formula used to calculate the time period for a first order reaction follows:
where,
k = rate constant =
t = time period = ? days
a = initial concentration of the reactant = 12.6 g
a - x = concentration of reactant left after time 't' = 1 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the time required for a radioactive substance to remain less than 1 gram is 168.27 days.
Answer:
the answer to this question is four cups
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is four cups/scoops because if Zacks cup can hold one cup and it requires two cups to fill each birdfeeder and there are two of them, it should take him four scoops.
Answer:
The interest generated will be $ 51.20.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the compound interest on the account with 0.01% interest rate in 5 years compounded quarterly with an initial deposit of $ 1,000, the following calculation must be performed:
1,000 x (1 + 0.01 / 4) ^ 4x5 = X
1,000 x (1 + 0.0025) ^ 20 = X
1,000 x 1.0025 ^ 20 = X
1,000 x 1.05120 = X
1,051.20 = X
1,051.20 - 1,000 = 51.20
Therefore, the interest generated will be $ 51.20.
First off, what's the slope of "r" anyway,

.
low and behold, since "r" is in slope-intercept form, notice, it has a slope of -1/2.
now, any line perpendicular to "r", will have a
negative reciprocal slope to it, that is,

so we're really looking for a line whose slope is 2, and runs through 4,-3,
