So this is where the Pythagorean theorem comes in: a squared + b squared = c squared. 

One of the basic pythagorean triangles is the 3-4-5 triangle and you can use any multiples of that triangle and get a right triangle (like multiple 3-4-5 by 2 to get a 6-8-10 right triangle, multiple 3-4-5 by 3 to get a 9-12-15 triangle, etc). 

So you could do 6, 8, and 10. 6 squared is 36, 8 squared is 64, and 10 squared is 100. 36 + 64 = 100, so it works.

A rock outcrop was found to have 95.82% of its parent U- 238 isotope remaining. Approximate the age of the outcrop. The half-lif
mixer [17]

Answer:

A) 277 million years

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, decay of U-238 is first order reaction. (since most of the nuclear decays are first order).

so, the equation t = \frac{1}{k} × ln(\frac{A(0)}{A})

where, t = time from start of reaction

           k = reaction constant

           A(0) = initial concentration; A = present concentration.

     ⇒ 4.5 billion = 4500 million years = \frac{1}{k}× ln2.

Now, given 95.82% of parent U-238 isotope is left.

⇒ t = \frac{1}{k} × ln(\frac{A(0)}{A})

  t = \frac{4500}{ln2} × ln(\frac{100}{95.82})

⇒ t ≅ 277 million years.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras's theorem dictates that  a squared + b squared  = c squared when talking about sides on right angled triangles with a and b being flat sides and c being the hypotenuse which gives us the forumula below

3 squared + 4 squared = 25 route 25 = 5
