Answer:

7.2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the time using the radioactive decay rate formula is given as:

t = t½ × In(Nt/No)/-In2

Where

t½ = half life = 6 minutes

No = Initial Amount = 260 grams

Nt = Amount after decay

= 113 grams

Hence:

t = 6 × In(113/260)/-In2

t = 7.2131331036796 minutes

Approximately = 7.2 minutes

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Option: B

There are three times as many participants in the 40-59 age group than in the 0-19 age group.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the histogram we have following observations:

Number of people in the age group  0-19= 20

Number of people in the age group 20-39=40

Number of people in the age group 40-59=60

Number of people in the age group 60-79=50

Hence, from the data we could say that  there are three times as many participants in the 40-59 age group( which is 60) than in the 0-19 age group(which is 20).

Hence, option B is correct.

Triangle QRS has been rotated 90° to create triangle TVU. Using the image below, prove that lines RS and VU have the opposite an
Zanzabum

Answer:

If the line RS has been rotated 90 degrees, then VU will be perpendicular to RS and the two slopes must be opposite and reciprocal, i.e. product of the two slopes will equal -1.

As a verification, we find the locations of V and U from rotations of R & S.

(actually, the triangle had been rotated -90°, 90 ° clockwise)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope RS, m1:

Slope VU, m2

Hence m1*m2=1*-1=-1, meaning that m1 and m2 are opposite (in sign) and are reciprocal to each other, as expected
