Alright, so after a half-life, half of the previous number would be left. So basically,
180 g ← 0 half lives
90 g ← 1 half life
45 g ← 2 half lives
22.5 g ← 3 half lives
11.25 g ← 4 half lives
Therefore, the answer is 11.25 grams
Answer:
the second option (9,11,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There are 9 quarters and 3 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
problems used: 0.5x+0.25y=3.09
x=y+6
so substitute what x is equal to into the problem
0.5(y+6)+0.25y=3.09 <--------- distribute
0.5y+3+0.25y=3.09 <--------- Combine like terms
0.3y+3=3.09 <----------- Subtract 3 on both sided to get y by itself
0.3y=0.9 <------------ Divide by 0.3 on both sides to get what y is equal to
y=3 <-------- now substitute to find what x is equal to
x=3+6
x=9
Since they gave you the boxes you need the first number to be zero therefore having the quotient starting with zero. Then you may divide normally
