Answer:

94.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to calculate the time.

The formula to calculate the time for half life =

t = t½ × In (Nt/No)/-In2

t½ = half life = 16 days

No = Initial substance = 120mg

Nt = Amount of substances after time t = 2 mg

t = 16 × In (2/120)/-In2

t = 94.510249529736 days

Approximately = 94.5 days

Therefore, the time it would take for the substance to decay from 120mg to 2 mg is 94.5 days.

Answer:

The simplification is done below.

Step-by-step explanation:

$(\sin(\frac{\pi}{6})\cos(\frac{\pi}{4}) - \sin(\frac{\pi}{4})\cos(\frac{\pi}{6}))^{2}$

= $(\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})^{2}$

= $((\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}) \times (1 - \sqrt{3}))^{2}$

= $0.125 \times (1 - (2 \times \sqrt{3}) +3)$
