This is a fairly easy half-life problem
Each half-life reduces the radioactive material by one half.
So after 72 hours the radioactive material would have undergone 6 half-lives.
2^6 = 64.
So, there will be one sixty-fourth of the material left.
520 / 64 = 8.125 grams will remain.
radioactive decay is an exponential decay function.

Answer:
144A+3AC
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you provided half of the problem. Because this does not make sense to any problem I can think of.
Answer:
x = 3, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached,
If ΔADE and ΔABC are similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.
By this property,




3x = 2x + 3
3x - 2x = 3
x = 3
Similarly, 

y = 
y = 6
Answer:
9 labours
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this, we must know which kind of proportionality is this. There are two types of proportions, direct and indirect/inverse proportions. In direct proportion, if one quantity increases, the other quantity also increases.
In indirect proportion, if one quantity increases, the other decreases and vice versa.
As per this question, we know if the number of labour increases, the number of days to complete a work decreases, thus proving that this is an indirect/inverse proportion.
6 labours => 12 days
x labours => 8 days
Since its an inverse proprotion, multiply 6 with 12, and x with 8.
8x = 6 × 12
x =
∴ x = <u>9 labours</u>
