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

(1/3) × the cone's volume = The cylinder's volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The volume of any cone is obtained by multiplying \frac{1}{3} with π, the square of the radius (r^{2}) and the height (h).

So the volume of the cone, V=\pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}.

Step 2:  

The cylinder's volume is nearly the same as the cone but instead by multiplying \frac{1}{3} we multiply with 1.

So the cylinder's volume is determined by multiplying π with the square of the radius of the cylinder (r^{2}) and the height of the cylinder (h).

So the the cone's volume, V = \pi r^{2} h.

Step 3:

Now we equate both the volumes to each other.

The cone's volume : The cylinder's volume = \pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}: \pi r^{2} h = \frac{1}{3} : 1.

So if we multiply the cone's volume with \frac{1}{3} we will get the cylinder's volume with the same dimensions.

Brooke has to set up 70chairs in equal rows for the class talent show.But,there is not room for more than 20 rows. What are the
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

R = rows

C = columns

The chairs will be arranged in a way such that R * C \geq 70

We know that R \leq 20

70 / 20 = 3.5; however, you can't have half of a chair.

So find all the factors of 70 which don't exceed 20.

1, 70

2, 35

<h2>5, 14</h2><h2>7, 10</h2><h2></h2><h2>There are four ways that Brooke can set up the chairs:</h2><h2>5 rows of 14</h2><h2>7 rows of 10</h2><h2>10 rows of 7</h2><h2>14 rows of 5</h2>
