PLEASE HELP!!!!!!! IMA DESPRATE!!!!!!! A radioactive isotope decays exponentially. The time it takes for half of the amount to decay is called the isotope's half-life. If an isotope has a half-life of 16 hours and you initially have 154 mg, how much will you have left after 64 hours? Round to the nearest thousandth.

Answers

Answer 1

Since the isotope is initially 154 mg, the amount of radioactive isotope left after 64 hours is 9.625 mg

To answer the question, we need to know what radioactive decay is.

What is radoactive decay?

Radioactive decay is the spontaneous disintegration of a larger atom to a smaller one

What is half-life?

Half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time it takes for the isotope to decay to half its initial value.

Amount left after n half lives

The amount left after n half lives is N = (1/2)ⁿN₀ where N₀ = initial mass of isotope.

Given that the half-life of the isotope is 16 hours, and we desire the amount present after 64 hours.

The number of half-lives after 64 hours is n = time/half-life

= 64 h/16 h

= 4

Since we have 154 mg of isotope present, N₀ = 154 mg

Given that

n = 4 and N₀ = 154 mg

Substituting the values of the variables into N, we have

N = (1/2)ⁿN₀

N = (1/2)⁴ × 154 mg

N = 154 mg/16

N = 9.625 mg

So, the amount of radioactive isotope left after 64 hours is 9.625 mg

Integration Methods: U-Substitution, U-Solve, Trigonometric Substitution

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

The problem is too big to fit all work. I will assume that you know how to do basic calculus.

Step 1: Define

Identify given.

[tex]\displaystyle \int {x^{-11}(1 + x^4)^\Big{- \frac{1}{2}}} \, dx[/tex]

Step 2: Integrate Pt. 1

[Integrand] Rewrite:
[tex]\displaystyle \int {x^{-11}(1 + x^4)^\Big{- \frac{1}{2}}} \, dx = \int {\frac{1}{x^{11}\sqrt{x^4 + 1}}} \, dx[/tex]

Step 3: Integrate Pt. 2

Identify variables for u-substitution/u-solve.

Set u:
[tex]\displaystyle u = x^2[/tex][u] Differentiate [Derivative Rule - Basic Power Rule]:
[tex]\displaystyle du = 2x \ dx[/tex][du] Rewrite [U-Solve]:
[tex]\displaystyle dx = \frac{1}{2x} \ du[/tex]

Step 4: Integrate Pt. 3

Start solving the integral using u-solve:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\int {x^{-11}(1 + x^4)^\Big{- \frac{1}{2}}} \, dx & = \int {\frac{1}{x^{11}\sqrt{x^4 + 1}}} \, dx \\& = \int {\frac{1}{2u^6 \sqrt{u^2 + 1}}} \, du \\& = \frac{1}{2} \int {\frac{1}{u^6 \sqrt{u^2 + 1}}} \, du \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 5: Integrate Pt. 4

Identify variables for trigonometric substitution.

Set u:
[tex]\displaystyle\begin{aligned}u & = \tan v \\v & = \arctan u \\\end{aligned}[/tex][u] Differentiate [Triognometric Differentiation]:
[tex]\displaystyle du = \sec^2 v \ dv[/tex]

Step 6: Integrate Pt. 5

Let's focus on just the integral itself. Apply the Trigonometric Substitution Integration Method and other basic integration techniques listed under "Calculus":

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\int {\frac{1}{u^6 \sqrt{u^2 + 1} }} \, du & = \int {\frac{\sec^2 v}{\tan^6 v \sqrt{\tan^2 v + 1} }} \, dv \\& = \int {\frac{\sec v}{\tan^6 v}} \, dv \\& = \int {\cot v \csc v (\csc^2 v - 1)^2} \, dv \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 7: Integrate Pt. 6

Identify variables for u-substitution/u-solve again.

Use another variable besides u to avoid confusion with earlier substitutions:

Set w:
[tex]\displaystyle w = \csc v[/tex][w] Differentiate [Triognometric Differentiation]:
[tex]\displaystyle dw = - \cot v \csc v \ dv[/tex][dw] Rewrite [U-Solve]:
[tex]\displaystyle dv = - \frac{1}{\cot v \csc v} \ dw[/tex]

Step 8: Integrate Pt. 7

Reduce the integral using the U-Solve Integration Method and other basic integration techniques listed under "Calculus":

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\int {\frac{1}{u^6 \sqrt{u^2 + 1} }} \, du & = \int {\frac{\sec^2 v}{\tan^6 v \sqrt{\tan^2 v + 1} }} \, dv \\& = \int {\frac{\sec v}{\tan^6 v}} \, dv \\& = \int {\cot v \csc v (\csc^2 v - 1)^2} \, dv \\& = \int {-(w^2 - 1)^2} \, dw \\& = - \int {(w^2 - 1)^2} \, dw \\& = - \int {\bigg( w^4 - 2w^2 + 1 \bigg)} \, dw \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 9: Integrate Pt. 8

Solve the integral using basic integration techniques listed under "Calculus":

[tex]\displaystyle\begin{aligned}- \int {\bigg( w^4 - 2w^2 + 1 \bigg)} \, dw & = - \Bigg[ \int {w^4} \, dx - \int {2w^2} \, dx + \int {} \, dx \Bigg] \\& = - \Bigg[ \int {w^4} \, dx - 2 \int {w^2} \, dx + \int {} \, dx \Bigg] \\& = - \Bigg[ \frac{w^5}{5} - \frac{2w^3}{3} + w + C \Bigg] \\& = - \frac{w^5}{5} + \frac{2w^3}{3} - w + C \\& = - \frac{\csc^5 v}{5} + \frac{2\csc^3 v}{3} - \csc v + C \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\begin{aligned}- \int {\bigg( w^4 - 2w^2 + 1 \bigg)} \, dw & = - \frac{(u^2 + 1)^\Big{\frac{5}{2}}}{5u^5} + \frac{2(u^2 + 1)^\Big{\frac{3}{2}}}{3u^3} - \frac{\sqrt{u^2 + 1}}{u} + C \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 10: Integrate Pt. 9

Let's substitute our integral value into our integral from "Step 4":

[tex]\displaystyle\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2} \int {\frac{1}{u^6 \sqrt{u^2 + 1}}} \, du & = - \frac{(u^2 + 1)^\Big{\frac{5}{2}}}{10u^5} + \frac{(u^2 + 1)^\Big{\frac{3}{2}}}{3u^3} - \frac{\sqrt{u^2 + 1}}{2u} + C \\& = - \frac{(x^4 + 1)^\Big{\frac{5}{2}}}{10x^{10}} + \frac{(x^4 + 1)^\Big{\frac{3}{2}}}{3x^6} - \frac{\sqrt{x^4 + 1}}{2x^2} + C \\& = \boxed{ - \frac{\sqrt{x^4 + 1}(8x^8 - 4x^4 + 3)}{30x^{10}} + C } \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

1. Are the side lengths congruent?




2. Are the opposite sides parallel?






3. Are the adjacent sides perpendicular?

Answers

Answer:

1:If three pairs of sides of two triangles are equal in length, then the triangles are congruent. ASA (angle-side-angle): If two pairs of angles of two triangles are equal in measurement, and the included sides are equal in length, then the triangles are congruent. 2:All sides are equal in length. Diagonals bisect each other at a 90-degree angle. The sum of any two adjacent interior angles is 180 degrees. Opposite sides are equal and parallel to each other.3:Each pair of opposite sides is parallel, and adjacent sides are perpendicular. This means that every angle in a rectangle is a right (90∘) angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Sines can be used to solve a triangle when two angles and a side opposite one of them is given.

__

third angle

The angle sum theorem can be used to find the third angle.

  C = 180° -A -B = 180° -30° -125° = 25°

__

unknown sides

The Law of Sines tells you ...

  a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

  b = a(sin(B)/sin(A)) = 38·sin(125°)/sin(30°) ≈ 62.3

  c = a(sin(C)/sin(A)) = 38·sin(25°)/sin(30°) ≈ 32.1

The solution is ...

  C = 25°, b = 62.3, c = 32.1

prove fermat's last theorem:no three positive integers a, b, and c satisfy the equation a^n + b^n = c^n for any integer value of n greater than 2

Answers

The proofing of Fermat's last theorem shows that y = a² - b², z = a² + b² and x = 2ab.

How to prove fermat's last theorem?

The equation x² + y² = z². We can assume that x, y, and z are positive and relatively prime. Suppose that x is even. Then:

(z - y/2)(z + y/2) = (x/2)²

Hence,

(z - y)/2 = b²

(z + y)/2 = a²

Then, y = a² - b², z = a² + b² and x = 2ab.

Answer:

∠ AOC = 124°

Step-by-step explanation:

the 3 angles lie on a straight line and sum to 180°

sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

3x + 94 + x + 30 + 2x - 4 = 180

6x + 120 = 180 ( subtract 120 from both sides )

6x = 60 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 10

Then

∠ AOC = 3x + 94 = 3(10) + 94 = 30 + 94 = 124°

Suppose we have an amount A, this would be the 100%.

If we want to know how much a quantity B represents, compared to A, we have:

B = x

where x is a percentage, to find the value of x we compute:

x = (B/A)*100%

OA

Answers

Answer:

  A.  200 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of packages per roll can be found by dividing the length of a roll by the length of tape needed for each package.

__

For each package:

  (2.375 in/piece)×(4 piece/package) = 9.5 in/package

Per roll:

  (1900 in/roll) / (9.5 in/package) = (1900/9.5) packages/roll

  = 200 packages/roll

The machine can seal 200 packages with a roll of tape 1900 inches long.

Let f(x)=x-3 and g(x)= x^2-x. Find and simplify the expression. (f+g)(2)

Answer:

(f+g)(2) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

f(x) = x − 3

g(x) = x² − x

Note : (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

then

(f+g)(2) = f(2) + g(2)

           = (2 - 3) + (2² - 2)

           = -1  +  2

           = 1

another method:

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) =  x − 3 + x² − x = x² - 3

then

(f+g)(2) = 2² - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1
