The half-life of a radioactive kind of iodine is 60 days. How much will be left after 240 days, if you start with 480 grams of i

t?
Mathematics

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

Evaluate the integral by making an appropriate change of variables.
VARVARA [1.3K]

By inspecting the integrand, the "obvious" choice for substitution would be

<em>u</em> = <em>y</em> + <em>x</em>

<em>v</em> = <em>y</em> - <em>x</em>

<em />

Solving for <em>x</em> and <em>y</em>, we would have

<em>x</em> = (<em>u</em> - <em>v</em>)/2

<em>y</em> = (<em>u</em> + <em>v</em>)/2

in which case the Jacobian and its determinant are

J=\begin{bmatrix}x_u&x_v\\y_u&y_v\end{bmatrix}=\dfrac12\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\1&1\end{bmatrix}\implies|\det J|=\left|\dfrac12\right|=\dfrac12

The trapezoid <em>R</em> has two of its edges on the lines <em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 8 and <em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 9, so right away, we have 8 ≤ <em>u</em> ≤ 9.

Then for <em>v</em>, we observe that when <em>x</em> = 0 (the lowest edge of <em>R</em>), <em>v</em> = <em>y</em> ; similarly, when <em>y</em> = 0 (the leftmost edge of <em>R</em>), <em>v</em> = -<em>x</em>. So

-<em>x</em> ≤ <em>v</em> ≤ <em>y</em>

-(<em>u</em> - <em>v</em>)/2 ≤ <em>v</em> ≤ (<em>u</em> + <em>v</em>)/2

-<em>u</em> + <em>v</em> ≤ 2<em>v</em> ≤ <em>u</em> + <em>v</em>

-<em>u</em> ≤ <em>v</em> ≤ <em>u</em>

<em />

So, the integral becomes

\displaystyle\iint_R5\cos\left(7\frac{y-x}{y+x}\right)\,\mathrm dA=\int_8^9\int_{-u}^u\frac52\cos\left(\frac{7v}u\right)\,\mathrm dv\,\mathrm du

=\displaystyle\frac52\int_8^9\frac u7(\sin7-\sin(-7))\,\mathrm du

=\displaystyle\frac57\sin7\int_8^9u\,\mathrm du

=\displaystyle\frac5{14}\sin7(9^2-8^2)=\boxed{\frac{85}{14}\sin7}

tatiyna

Answer:

8x³ + 12x² - 16x - 16

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define expression</u>

(4x² - 2x - 4)(2x + 4)

<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>

  1. Expand:                                       8x³ - 4x² - 8x + 16x² - 8x - 16
  2. Combine like terms (x²):             8x³ + 12x² - 8x - 8x - 16
  3. Combine like terms (x):              8x³ + 12x² - 16x - 16

Please solve quickly ​
HACTEHA [7]

Area of a circle = πr^2

Area of a sector with angle x° = (x/360) πr^2

For the smaller sector,

x = 30°

r = 6 in

Required area of sector = (30/360) × π × 6^2 = 9.424 in^2

To the nearest hundreth, Area = 9.42 in^2
