Answer:

239 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Half life t(1/2) = ln 2 / k

So 7.6 = ln 2 / k

k = ln 2 / 7.6 = 0 0901204

N = No e^-kt

So after 12 years

80 = No / e^(-0.0901204*12)

No = 80 / e^(-0.0901204*12)

= 239.

Find the x and y intercepts of the graph of the equation y=x^2-5
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

x intercepts  -sqrt(5), + sqrt(5)

y intercept -5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 -5

to find the x intercept set y=0 and solve for x

0 = x^2-5

add 5 to each side

5 = x^2

take the square root of each side

+- sqrt(5) = sqrt(x^2)

x = +-sqrt(5)    there are 2 x intercepts since it is a quadratic


to find the y intercept set x=0 and solve for y

y = 0-5

y = -5

Find the missing dimension of each prism.
Leto [7]

Given:

Volume of the prism = 60 in³

Breadth = 2.5 in

Height = 4 in.

To find:

The length of the prism.

Solution:

We know that, volume of a prism is

V=l\times b\times h

where, l is length, b is breadth and h is height.

Putting V=60, b=2.5 and h=4, we get

60=l\times 2.5\times 4

60=l\times 10

Divide both sides by 10.

\dfrac{60}{10}=l

6=l

Therefore, the missing dimension of the prism is 6 in.

Help Please. Can't seem to understand how to do this. I have tried and watch over 5 videos. Can't seem to get it.​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The solutions are the following:

  • z=2(cos(π6)+isin(π6))=√3+12i

  • z=2(cos(2π3)+isin(2π3))=−1+i√3

  • z=2(cos(7π6)+isin(7π6))=−√3−12i

  • z=2(cos(5π3)+isin(5π3))=1−i√3
