Answer:

t=6.2days

Step-by-step explanation:

Find a substance half-life in days. round your answer to the nearest tenths

k value=0.1124

N0=33 grams

since the questions says the time it takes for the substance to reduce to half of its size. the initial mass doesn't matter

N=N0e^-kt

N/N0=e^-kt

take laperian log of both sides

Ln(N/N0)=-kt

Ln(0.5)=-0.1124t

-0.693=-0.1124t

t=6.16

t=6.2days

Note: Half life is the time it takes for a radioactive material to reduce to half of its size/mass.

A 33 gram sample has k value of .1124
(Actually I think the problem SHOULD be worded: A 33 gram sample has k value of -.1124/days)

See attached graphic:
Half-Life = ln (.5) / k
Half-Life = -.693147 / -.1124/days
Half-Life = <span> <span> <span> 6.1667882562 </span> </span> </span> days

3=c/5+2... how do I solve for c??
expeople1 [14]
Primeiro Você IRA Dividir o c (APENAS Colocar 5 + 2 embaixo do c). Depois faça a soma 5 + 2 = 7. Então faça o mmc (mínimo múltiplo comum) entre 7 e 1(o 1 é invisível, mas continua estando embaixo do 3). Deu 7 o mmc. Transforme seus números em frações, com o denominador 7. Transforme os números em frações o 3 virá 21, pois você divide em baixo e multiplica em baixo, e o c continua normal, pois já estava em baixo de 7. Como é para descobrir uma incógnita você tira os denominadores e ficará 21 = c.

3 = c/5 + 2
3 = c/7
21/7 = c/7
21 = c
