Answer:

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

8 × 2 + 5²- y = 2(y + 1) + 6

8 × 2 + 5²- y = 2y + 2 + 6

8 × 2 + 25 - y = 2y + 2 + 6

16 + 25 - y = 2y + 2 + 6

41 - y = 2y + 8

41 (- y + y) = (2y + y) + 8

41 = 3y + 8

41 - 8 = 3y (+ 8 - 8)

33 = 3y

33/3 = 3y/3

y = 11

Suppose after 2500 years an initial amount of 1000 grams of a radioactive substance has decayed to 75 grams. What is the half-li

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Between 600 and 700 years (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

At a constant decay rate, the half-life of a radioactive substance is the time taken for the substance to decay to half of its original mass. The formula for radioactive exponential decay is given by:

$A(t) = A_0 e^{(kt)}\\where:\\A(t) = Amount\ left\ at\ time\ (t) = 75\ grams\\A_0 = initial\ amount = 1000\ grams\\k = decay\ constant\\t = time\ of\ decay = 2500\ years$

First, let us calculate the decay constant (k)

$75 = 1000 e^{(k2500)}\\dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 1000\\0.075 = e^{(2500k)}\\taking\ natural\ logarithm\ of\ both\ sides\\In 0.075 = In (e^{2500k})\\In 0.075 = 2500k\\k = \frac{In0.075}{2500}\\ k = \frac{-2.5903}{2500} \\k = - 0.001036$

Next, let us calculate the half-life as follows:

$\frac{1}{2} A_0 = A_0 e^{(-0.001036t)}\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ A_0\\ \frac{1}{2} = e^{-0.001036t}\\taking\ natural\ logarithm\ of\ both\ sides\\In(0.5) = In (e^{-0.001036t})\\-0.6931 = -0.001036t\\t = \frac{-0.6931}{-0.001036} \\t = 669.02 years\\\therefore t\frac{1}{2} \approx 669\ years$

Therefore the half-life is between 600 and 700 years

Between which pair of numbers is the exact product of 379 and 8.

Bezzdna [24]

<span>Product means multiplication, so I would multiply 379 and 8.
379 x 8 = 3032
3032 is directly in between 3031 and 3033
