The amount of strontium that will remain after 40 hours is 5 g

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives </h3>
  • Half-life (t½) = 10 hours
  • Time (t) = 40 hours
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 40 / 10

n = 4

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 80 g
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 4
  • Amount remaining (N) =?

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 80 / 2⁴

N = 80 / 16

N = 5 g

"+-" should always be changed to "-".

You have 3 - 7 - 2.  You may evaluate this from left to right, obtaining -4 -2, or -6.

4 - 16 -2(2) involves multiplication, which must be carried out before addition or subtraction.  Thus, 4 - 16 - 4.  Working from left to right, we get -12 - 4 = -16

Question 18
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-7 has a slope of 0, since it is a horizontal line. The only types of lines that are perpendicular to horizontal lines are vertical lines, which are usually in the form x=a (where a is any real number). Vertical lines have an undefined slope, so the answer is undefined. Hope this helps!
