Step-by-step explanation:
1) if (0;0) if point A, (1;2) is point B; (-1;-2) is C, (2;1) is D, then
2) the vector AB is (1;2); vector AC is (-1;-2) and vector AD is (2;1), then
3) the length of AB, AC and AD are:
4) if the lengths above are equal, then it means that (0, 0) is equidistant from (1, 2), (-1, -2) and (2, 1).
Answer:
5.5 days (nearest tenth)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given formula:</u>
= initial mass (at time t=0)
- N = mass (at time t)
- k = a positive constant
- t = time (in days)
Given values:
- k = 0.125
Half-life: The <u>time</u> required for a quantity to reduce to <u>half of its initial value</u>.
To find the time it takes (in days) for the substance to reduce to half of its initial value, substitute the given values into the formula and set N to half of the initial mass, then solve for t:
Therefore, the substance's half-life is 5.5 days (nearest tenth).
