Answer:

30 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

half life is 60 days so every 60 days the amount 480 grams will be half

in 240 days will decay  240 /60 = 4 times

once 480 /2 = 240

twice 240 /2 = 120

trice 120 / 2 = 60

four times 60/2 = 30 grams will be left

Four times a number minus twice another number is -16. The sum of the two numbers is -1. Find the numbers
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

2 and -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y ∴ 4x -2y =-16......................Eqn 1

and x+y=-1.................................Eqn 2

this ⇒x=-1-y. Substitute the value of x to be=-1 -y and putting in Eqn 1 yields the following 4(-1-y)-2y =-16 0r -4-4y-2y=-16

⇒-4-6y=-16 0r =-6y=-12 ∴y is 2

⇒ and x is -3

NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE

Z would also be 63 degrees. Triangle WXZ is isosceles, as sides WX and WZ are marked as congruent. This means that the two base angles of the triangle (the bottom two) are congruent. You already know that one of the base angles, X (or WXY), is 63 degrees, so using this reasoning, the other base angle, YZW, is 63 degrees as well. I hope this helps!

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+y=2(x+3y)\\\\4x-2=2(x+3(-2))\\\\4x-2=2(x-6)\\\\4x-2=2x-12\\\\4x-2+2=2x-12+2\\\\4x=2x-10\\\\4x-2x=2x-2x-10\\\\2x=-10\\\\\frac{2x=-10}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=-5}

Hope this helps.
