Calcium-41 is being used in studies testing the effectiveness of drugs for preventing osteoporosis. The half-life of calcium-41 is 100,000 years. If 20 grams of calcium-41 are present initially, how long would it take until only 2 grams
remains?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

332,193 years

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question above, we are to calculate the time in an half life question, hence, the formula is given as

t = In(Nt/No) ÷ -(In2/t½)

Where

t = time is takes for an substance to decay or reduce

Nt = Amount of sample after time = 2g

No = Initial amount of sample = 20g

t½ = Half life = 100,000 years

Hence,

t = In(2/20) ÷ (In 2/ 100,000)

t = 332192.80948874 years

Approximately = 332,193 years

Hailey's hair grows at a rate of 1/2 inch per month. How many months will it take her hair to grow a total of 8 inches?

Answers

Answer:

16 months for it to grow 8 inches

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

growth in 1 month = 1/2 inches

growth in x months = x*1/2 inches

total growth = 8 inches

thus,

8 = x*1/2

x = 8 / (1/2)

  = 16

2. When Deema begins her drive, she is 400 mi from home. She drives at an average rate of 50 mph until she gets

home. Draw a graph to represent this situation?

Answers

Answer:  I can give coordinates (0,400) (1,350) (2,300) (3,250) (4,200) (5,150) (6,100) (7,50) (8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Deema starts at 400 which is y-intercept and goes down on a slope of -50 cause we are decreasing 50 mi for every hour she drives.

Hope this helped :) !!!!!!!

The coordinates of the graph representing the given situation are listed below

 A (0 ,400)

 B ( 1 ,350 )

 C (2,300)

 D(3,250)

  E(4, 200)

  F(5, 150)

  G(6, 100)

   H(7, 50)

   I (8, 0)

The graph attached shows the nature of the graph.

Total distance traveled by Deema = 400 miles

The average speed of  Deema = 50 mph

In each 1 hour, 50 miles of distance will be covered

So by the rate of 50 miles per hour the coordinates in this situation are given as follows

Time (X axis)           Distance (Y axis)

  0                                  400

   1                                  350

   2                                 300

   3                                 250

   4                                 200

   5                                 150

   6                                 100

   7                                  50

   8                                   0

The coordinates of the graph are listed above and the nature of graph is shown in the figure attached in the solution.

The graph of this situation has a constant negative slope.

what is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line y=-1/4x-1

Answers

-1/4
I really hope this helps

slope of line perpendicular to the line y=-1/4x-1 is 4.

What is Slope of Line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope of line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is

m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Let us write the given equation  y=-1/4x-1

If we compare the given equation with slope intercept form

We get to know slope of line m is -1/4.

It two lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes will be -1

-1/4×m=-1

m=4

Hence slope of line perpendicular to the line y=-1/4x-1 is 4.

Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

r = 4s

r = 1/2s + 7

Step 2: Solve for s

Substitution

Substitute in r:                                4s = 1/2s + 7Subtract 1/2s on both sides:          7/2s = 7Divide 7/2 on both sides:              s = 2

Step 3: Solve for r

Define equation:                    r = 4sSubstitute in s:                       r = 4(2)Multiply:                                  r = 8

Answer:

s = 2

r = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

subsitution is were you plug in a systerm into the other problem

since they give you R = 4s you take 4s and plug it in were r is in the other equation (subsitution)

so now you have 4s = 1/2s+7

now you want to solve for s so your going to subtract 1/2s from both sides to cancle out the 1/2s --> 4s - 1/2s = 7 --> 3 and 1/2s = 7

now divide both sides by 3 1/2 to get s alone s = 7/3 and 1/2

s = 2

now we have s we take that and plug it into r = 4s

subsitute S as 2  --> r = 4(2)

r = 8
