Answer:

The mean age of the combined distribution of both men and women in the course is:

20.47 years.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Random variable M = age of men

Random variable W = age of women

Distribution of                    M:                 W:

Mean =                            20.7 years     20.2 years

Standard Deviation =       1.73 years      1.60 years

Percentage of enrolled   54%                46%

Mean Age Proportion     11.178              9.292

Combined mean age =  20.47 (11.178 + 9.292)

b) Mean Age Proportion:

M = 20.7 * 54% =   11.178

W = 20.2 * 46% = 9.292

Total                     20.47

With a half life of 28.8 years, how long will it take 1g of strontium-90 to decay to 250 mg
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The time it takes for 1g of strontium-90 to decay to 250 mg is; 57.6 years

<h3>What is the half life of an element?</h3>

The formula for half life is;

A(t) = A₀ * (¹/₂)^(t/t_1/2)

Where;

A(t) is amount left after t years

A₀  the initial quantity of the substance that will undergo decay;

t_1/2 is the half-life of the decaying quantity.

We are given;

t_1/2 = 28.8 years

A₀ = 1 g

A(t) = 250 mg = 0.25 g

Thus;

0.25 = 1 *  (¹/₂)^(t/28.8)

log 0.25 = (t/28.8) log (1/2)

-0.60206 = (t/28.8) * -0.3010

t = 2 * 28.8

t = 57.6 years
