Element X is a radioactive isotope such that every 26 years, its mass decreases by half. Given that the initial mass of a sample

of Element X is 390 grams, how long would it be until the mass of the sample reached 260 grams, to the nearest tenth of a year?​

Answer:

It will take 15.029 years for element X to reach mass of 260 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The half life period of radioactive element X is 26 years

The initial mass of radioactive element X is 260 grams

Elapsed time = half life * log (beginning amount /ending amount)/log 2

Substituting the given values, we get

Elapsed time = 26 * log (390/260)/log 2

=  15.209 years

Enter the equations of the asymptotes for the function f(x).<br><br> f(x)= 3/x−7 + 2
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

x = 7, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume it is 3/(x-7) + 2.

When x = 7, there is an asymptote because it is undefined.

When y = 2, there is also one, because 3/(x-7) is never 0.

These are the only ones.
