Answer:
The number is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
[] First, let's turn all these words into something mathematical. N will equal "my number"
-><u> If you add 12 to my number</u> and then multiply the result by 3, you will get 64 more than two-thirds of my number.
-> n + 12 <u>and then multiply the result by 3</u>, you will get 64 more than two-thirds of my number.
-> 3(n + 12), you will get 64 more than <u>two-thirds of my number</u>.
-> 3(n + 12) = <u>64 more than</u> 
-> 3(n + 12) = 64 +
[] Phew, okay. Now it is something we can solve and less scary;
[Given]
3(n + 12) = 64 +
[Distribute]
3n + 36 = 64 +
[Multiply both sides by 3]
9n + 108 = 192 + 2n
[Subtract 108 and 2n from both sides]
7n = 84
[Divide both sides by 4]
n = 12

Answer:
0.75 mg
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above the following data were obtained:
Original amount (N₀) = 1.5 mg
Half-life (t₁/₂) = 6 years
Time (t) = 6 years
Amount remaining (N) =.?
Next, we shall determine the number of half-lives that has elapse. This can be obtained as follow:
Half-life (t₁/₂) = 6 years
Time (t) = 6 years
Number of half-lives (n) =?
n = t / t₁/₂
n = 6/6
n = 1
Finally, we shall determine the amount of the sample remaining after 6 years (i.e 1 half-life) as follow:
Original amount (N₀) = 1.5 mg
Half-life (t₁/₂) = 6 years
Number of half-lives (n) = 1
Amount remaining (N) =.?
N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀
N = 1/2¹ × 1.5
N = 1/2 × 1.5
N = 0.5 × 1.5
N = 0.75 mg
Thus, 0.75 mg of the sample is remaining.
Answer:
x is the reciprocal of the difference of a and b.
Step-by-step explanation:
ax=bx+1
Subtract by bx on both sides
ax-bx=1
x(a-b)=1
x= 1/(a-b)
