answer:

mean: 15.8

median: 12

mode: no mode

range: 27

step-by-step explanation:

first know how to find each of the above and what they are
mean = (avg) add all the numbers, then divide by the number of numbers
median = the middle number from increasing order
mode = the one that repeats the most
range = the difference between the largest and smallest number

8, 35, 10, 12, 14

mean

8 + 35 + 10 + 12 + 14 = 79

there are five numbers

79 / 5 = 15.8

median

put them from smallest to largest

8, 10, 12, 14, 35

12 is the median OR the middle number

mode

no number repeat, so no mode

range

35 - 8 = 27

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years. Suppose we have a 180-mg sample. (a) Find the mass that remains after t years. (b) How

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a) $Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

b) 11.4mg of cesium-137 remains after 120 years.

c) 225.8 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation is used to calculate the amount of cesium-137:

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-rt}$

In which Q(t) is the amount after t years, Q(0) is the initial amount, and r is the rate at which the amount decreses.

(a) Find the mass that remains after t years.

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years.

This means that Q(30) = 0.5Q(0). We apply this information to the equation to find the value of r.

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-rt}$

$0.5Q(0) = Q(0)e^{-30r}$

$e^{-30r} = 0.5$

Applying ln to both sides of the equality.

$\ln{e^{-30r}} = \ln{0.5}$

$-30r = \ln{0.5}$

$r = \frac{\ln{0.5}}{-30}$

$r = 0.023$

$Q(t) = Q(0)e^{-0.023t}$

180-mg sample, so Q(0) = 180

$Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

(b) How much of the sample remains after 120 years?

This is Q(120).

$Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

$Q(120) = 180e^{-0.023*120}$

$Q(120) = 11.4$

11.4mg of cesium-137 remains after 120 years.

(c) After how long will only 1 mg remain?

This is t when Q(t) = 1. So

$Q(t) = 180e^{-0.023t}$

$1 = 180e^{-0.023t}$

$e^{-0.023t} = \frac{1}{180}$

$e^{-0.023t} = 0.00556$

Applying ln to both sides

$\ln{e^{-0.023t}} = \ln{0.00556}$

$-0.023t = \ln{0.00556}$

$t = \frac{\ln{0.00556}}{-0.023}$

$t = 225.8$

225.8 years.
