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

Please solve this with explanation, don’t just give the answer please explain too.
Gemiola [76]

Answer: 30x⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

2x⁴ + (-3x²)² + 10(x²)² + (-3x²)²

2x⁴ + (9x⁴) + 10 (x⁴) + (9x⁴)

2x⁴ + 9x⁴ + 10x⁴ + 9x⁴

2x⁴ + 10x⁴ 9x⁴ + 9x⁴

12x⁴ + 18x⁴

30x⁴

(-x)² = x²

(xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵃᵇ

Is x-3/5 = N and N = 6, what is the value of x?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

x = 33/5

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3/5 = n.......n = 6

so we sub

x - 3/5 = 6......add 3/5 to both sides

x = 6 + 3/5...convert using common denominator of 5

x = 30/5 + 3/5

x = 33/5 <===

check...

x - 3/5 = 6

33/5 - 3/5 = 6

30/5 = 6

6 = 6 (correct)...so it checks out
