The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:
Recall that m(t) = m.(1/2)^t/h for radioactive decay, where h is the half-life. Suppose that a 500 g sample of phosphorus-32 decays to 356 g over 7 days. Calculate the half life of the sample.
<u>Answer:</u> The half life of the sample of phosphorus-32 is 
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The equation used to calculate the half life of the sample is given as:
where,
m(t) = amount of sample after time 't' = 356 g
= initial amount of the sample = 500 g
t = time period = 7 days
h = half life of the sample = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the half life of the sample of phosphorus-32 is
The 4 litres of red has to be 2 parts of the mixture, so each part will be 2 litres. Therefore 3 parts of cream will be 6 litres and the one part of blue will be 2 litres.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 in decimal is .6 repeating
1/4 in decimal is 0.25
therefore we cannot conclude that 2/3 is equal to 1/4
$27 x 18 students = 486 actual cost.
$30 x 10 students = 300 estimated total cost using compatible numbers.
$20 x 20 students = 400 estimated total cost using compatible numbers. (better option because it is nearer to the actual cost)
Compatible numbers are numbers that can easily be multiplied or divided using mental computation.
Compatible number for 27 and 18 can be: 30 and 20 OR 20 and 20 OR 30 and 10 OR 20 and 10.
However, there is a rule in multiplying the compatible numbers, when one number is increased the other number must be decreased.
So 27 can be increased to 30; while 18 can be decreased to 10 to get a product of 300.
27 can be decreased to 20; while 18 can be increased to 20 to get a product of 400.
