A certain radioactive isotope is a​ by-product of some nuclear reactors. Due to an​ explosion, a nuclear reactor experiences a m

assive leak of this radioactive isotope.​ Fortunately, the isotope has a very short​ half-life of days. Estimate the percentage of the original amount of the isotope released by the explosion that remains days after the explosion.

Answer:

73.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached.

Half life (t1/2) = 9 days

Time taken (t) = 4 days

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

Substituting values;

0.693/9 = 2.303/4 log(No/N)

0.693/9 × 4/2.303= log(No/N)

2.772/20.727= log(No/N)

Antilog (2.772/20.727)=No/N

1.36 = No/N

Therefore;

N/No = (1.36)^-1

N/No = 0.735

Percentage remaining after 4 days= 0.735× 100= 73.5%

¿Cuál es la ecuación de la recta con pendiente -2 y el punto (4, 10)?
Sophie [7]

The general slope-intercept form equation is:

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{Wher m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value} \end{gathered}

In this case, m=-2 and with the point (4, 10) we can find the value of b:

\begin{gathered} We\text{ evalute the equation in the point (x, y) = (4 , 10):} \\ 10=-2\cdot4+b \\ 10=-8+b \\ b=10+8=18 \end{gathered}

We found that b = 18, so:

y=-2x+18

Center (-15,11) radius 2
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

(x+15)^2+(y-11)^2=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is</em></u>

How do you write an equation for a circle with center (-15,11) and radius 2?

we know that

The equation of a circle in center radius form is given by

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where

(h,k) is the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle

substitute the given vales

(x+15)^2+(y-11)^2=2^2

(x+15)^2+(y-11)^2=4
