The percentage of the radioactive isotope left is 25.0000%.
<h3>What is the half life?</h3>
The half life of a radioactive isotope is the time that will elapse before only half of the number of original isotopes will remain.
Now;
We are told that;
Half life (t1/2) = 55 days
Time taken (t) = 115 days
Ratio of isotope remaining = N/No
Thus;
N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2
N/No = (1/2)^115/55
N/No = (1/2)^2
N/No =1/4
Hence, the percentage = 1/4 * 100/1 = 25.0000%

Answer:
$7,012.76
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal
r = R/100
r = 7/100
r = 0.07 rate per year,
Then solve the equation for A
A = P(1 + r/n)nt
A = 5,000.00(1 + 0.07/1)(1)(5)
A = 5,000.00(1 + 0.07)(5)
A = $7,012.76
Summary:
The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, with compound interest on a principal of $5,000.00 at a rate of 7% per year compounded 1 times per year over 5 years is $7,012.76.
I’m pretty sure the correct answer is C
Answer:
- a)
- b)
- c)
- d)
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the product rule from combinatorics.
- a) There are 26 letters in the English alphabet, so there are 26 possible choices for the first character and 26 possible choices for the last one. Each one of the remaining eight characters of the string has 36 choices (letters or digits). By the product rule, there are
strings.
- b) We have 5 possible choices for the first character, it must be some vowel a,e,i,o,u. The second character can be chosen in 21 ways, selecting some consonant. There are 10 possibilities for the last character because only of the digits are allowed. The other seven characters have no restrictions, so each one can be chosen in 36 ways. By the product rule there are
strings.
- c) The third character has 5 possibilities. Repetition of vowels is allowed, so the sixth and eighth characters have each one 5 possible choices. There are seven characters left. None of them are a vowel, but they are allowed to take any other letter or digit, so each one of them can be chosen in 36-5=31 ways. Therefore there are strings.
- d) Remember that the binomial coefficient
is the number of ways of choosing k elements from a set of n elements. In this case, to count all the possible strings, we first need to count in how many ways we can select the four positions that will have the digits. This can be done in 
ways, since we are choosing four elements from the set of the ten positions of the string. Now, for the first position, we can choose any digit so it has 10 possibilities. The second position has 9 possibilities, because we can't repeat the digit used on the first position. Similarly, there are 8 choices for the third position and there are 7 choices for the fourth. Now, these are the only digits on the string, so the remaining 6 characters must be letters, then each one of them has 26 possibilities. By the product rule, there are strings.
