Answer:

y = mx + b

Step-by-step explanation:

y represents the dependent variable (value you are getting).

m represents the slope of the line.

x represents the independent variable (what you are changing).

b represents the y-intercept, or the y value when x is zero.

Will give brainliest to right answer please help!! 15 points -A sample of a radioactive isotope had an initial mass of 370 mg

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

78 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

370 mg - 110 mg = 260 mg (amount decayed in the 8 total years)

260 mg ÷ 8 years = 32.5 mg decayed per year

32.5 × 9 years (years between 2008 and 2017) = 292.5 mg

370 mg - 292.5 mg = 77.5 mg, rounded to 78 mg

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=2\sqrt{21}\ and\ y=4\sqrt3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion:

$\dfrac{AD}{CD}=\dfrac{CD}{DB}$

We have

$AD=14-8=6\\CD=y\\DB=8$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{6}{y}=\dfrac{y}{8}$ <em>cross multiply</em>

$y^2=(6)(8)$

$y^2=48\to y=\sqrt{48}\\\\y=\sqrt{16\cdot3}\\\\y=\sqrt{16}\ cdot\sqrt3\\\\\boxed{y=4\sqrt3}$

For x use the Pythagorean theorem:

$x^2=6^2+(4\sqrt3)^2\\\\x^2=36+48\\\\x^2=84\to x=\sqrt{84}\\\\x=\sqrt{4\cdot21}\\\\x=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt{21}\\\\\boxed{x=2\sqrt{21}}$
