Answer:
60.5 milligrams per square centimeter First, determine how many half lives have expired by dividing the time by the half-life. So: 55/20 = 2.75 That means that only 2^(-2.75) = 0.148650889 = 14.8650889% of the original substance remains. So just divide the amount remaining by 0.148650889 to get the original amount. 9 / 0.148650889 = 60.5445419 So originally, there was 60.5 milligrams per square centimeter 55 years ago.
Answer: I think that the answer is C because 5% is 5 out of 100 and 5 out of 100 as a decimal is 0.05 and you are trying to find how much the population will have increased so you have to multiply 248 by 5% or you have to multiply 248 by 0.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B) 2.4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount of rain is 28.8 inches over 12 months. To find how much rain falls averagely in <em>one </em>month you need to divide the total by the amount of months. 28.8/12 = 2.4
Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- 3x + 50 = 6x - 10 (Vertically opposite angles)
Simplify the equation to find x.
<u>Add 10 both sides.</u>
- 3x + 50 = 6x - 10
- => 3x + 50 + 10 = 6x - 10 + 10
- => 3x + 60 = 6x
<u>Subtract 3x both sides.</u>
- 3x + 60 = 6x
- => 3x - 3x + 60 = 6x - 3x
- => 60 = 3x
<u>Divide 3 both sides.</u>
- 60 = 3x
- => 60/3 = 3x/3
- => x = 20
