How do you know when to use the less than symbol and when to use the less than or equal to symbol when writing an inequality for

a situation? ​

Answer:

This depends on the situation. For context, you use less than when your inequality CANNOT exceed more than.

You would use less than or equal to if your inequality can be equal to a number. Here's an example.

John needs to buy X oranges and Y apples. He can AT MOST buy 10 total fruits.

x + y (equal to or less than) 45

John needs to buy X oranges and Y apples. He CANNOT buy more than 10 total fruits.

x + y < 45

Modeling Radioactive Decay In Exercise, complete the table for each radioactive isotope.
Travka [436]

Answer :

The amount after 1000 years will be, 5.19 grams.

The amount after 10000 years will be, 0.105 grams.

Step-by-step explanation :

Half-life = 1599 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{0.693}{1599\text{ years}}

k=4.33\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the amount after 1000 years.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 4.33\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = 1000 years

a = initial amount of the reactant  = 8 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = ?

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

1000=\frac{2.303}{4.33\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{8}{a-x}

a-x=5.19g

Thus, the amount after 1000 years will be, 5.19 grams.

Now we have to calculate the amount after 10000 years.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 4.33\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = 10000 years

a = initial amount of the reactant  = 8 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = ?

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

10000=\frac{2.303}{4.33\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{8}{a-x}

a-x=0.105g

Thus, the amount after 10000 years will be, 0.105 grams.
