The general way to work this out is to solve the general expression for
the remaining quantity versus half-life, using logarithms. But that's not
necessary with these numbers.
Look at the numbers:
-- 3 mg is 1/4 of 12 mg.
-- 1/4 is the product of (1/2) x (1/2).
-- So the 3 mg is what's left of 12 mg after 2 half-lives.
The 26 minutes must be two half-lives.
-- The half-life of that substance is 26/2 = <em>13 minutes</em>.

Answer:
29,100
Step-by-step explanation:
29.1 × 10 = 291
29.1 × 100 = 2,910
29.1 × 1000 = 29,100
Answer:
6 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the unknown leg

Since we need to solve for a, we will manipulate the equation in terms of b and c → 
Here, b = 7 mm and c =
mm
Plugging these numbers into our equation gives us
→
=
= 6 mm
Answer:
-y= -4x -4
y= 4x +4
slope is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 times what equals 19 can be in the form of an equation as shown below. It shows that the value we are finding for is unknown, therefore it is a variable. A variable is the unknown value in an equation.
Equation: 3x = 19
With the equation in hand, we can now solve the problem easily.
3x = 19
Carry the 3 to the 19(Carry over the like terms across leaving the variable or the unknown)
x = 19÷3
x = 6.33333 or 6 1/3
To check if the answer was correct:
3 × 6 1/3 = 19
You regain the answer <em>19</em>
