Answer:

75cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, I can't see a photo, so I'll have to assume that the description provides enough info.

10cm/2km = x/15km,

where x is the distance on the map (in centimeters) of a real-life distance of 15 kilometers.

10cm/2km = x/15km

10/2 = 5/1

This means we have to multiply 5 by 15 to find x.

x = 5 · 15

x = 75

Let's plug the new value back in...

10cm/2km = x/15km

10cm/2km = (75cm)/15km

<em>(Simplify each side to its simplest form)</em>

10cm/2km = 75cm/15km

5/1 = 5/1

It works! So x = 75cm.

Hope this helps! :)

Suppose a laboratory has a 26-gram sample of polonium-210.The half-life of polonium-210 is about days. a.How many half-lives of
vovangra [49]

Answer:

a) Two half lives, b) m(276) = 6.526\,g

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The polonium-210 has a half life of 138.4 days. Therefore, 1.994 half lives have past.  

b) Mass decay is described by the following exponential model:

m(t)=m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }

The time constant for the isotope is:

\tau = \frac{138.4\,days}{\ln 2}

\tau = 199.669\,days

The mass of the isotope after 276 days is:

m(276) = (26\,g)\cdot e^{-\frac{276\,days}{199.669\,days} }

m(276) = 6.526\,g

Put 3/8, 2/5, and 0.38 from least to greatest
Vesnalui [34]
3/8=0.375
2/5=0.4
0.38=0.38

0.375<0.38<0.4

therefore: 3/8,0.38,2/5

*Remember that you can convert fractions to decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator! This makes it much easier to compare :)
