Doctors can use radioactive chemicals to treat some forms of cancer. The half life of a certain chemical is 5 days. A patient receives a treatment of 28 millicuries of the chemical.​ (A millicurie is a unit of ​ radioactivity.) How much of the chemical remains in the patient 10 days​ later?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  7 millicuries

Step-by-step explanation:

A period of 10 days is 2 times the half-life of 5 days.

In the first 5 days, the amount of the chemical decayed by half from 28 millicuries to 14 millicuries. In the next 5 days, it decayed by half again, from 14 millicuries to 7 millicuries.

10 days later, 7 millicuries of the chemical remains.

Which function best models the data in the graph? y = 10.1x 101 y = x2 101 y = 101(2x) y = 1.01x2 101

Answers

Based on the calculations, the function which best models the data in the graph is y = 10.1x + 101.

How to determine the function?

Mathematically, the equation of a line in standard form is given by this formula:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Where:

m is the slope.y is the point on the horizontal axis.x is the point on the vertical axis.

In order to determine the function which best models the data in the graph shown in the image attached below, we would calculate the slope of the data by using this formula:

[tex]Slope = \frac{Change\;in\;y\;axis}{Change\;in\;x\;axis}\\\\Slope = \frac{y_2\;-\;y_1}{x_2\;-\;x_1}\\\\Slope = \frac{202\;-\;101}{10\;-\;0}\\\\Slope = \frac{101}{10}[/tex]

Slope = 10.1.

For the function, we have:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y = 10.1(x - 0) + 101

y = 10.1x + 101.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each plane has a starting altitude and a fixed rate of climb. Its altitude at some time t will be the sum of the starting altitude and t times the rate of climb.

__

plane A

  altitude = starting altitude + t × rate of climb

  a(t) = 4000 +35.25t

plane B

  b(t) = 2427 +65.5t

same altitude

The planes will be at the same altitude at the same time when ...

  a(t) = b(t)

  4000 +35.25t = 2427 +65.5t

  1573 = 30.25t . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2427+35.25t

  52 = t . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 30.25

That altitude is ...

  a(52) = 4000 +35.25×52 = 4000 +1833 = 5833

summary

52 seconds will pass before the planes are at the same altitude.

Their altitude then will be 5833 feet.

Dylan has a total of 25 marbles. He gives ! marbles to his sister, Jane. What fraction
of marbles did Jane receive?

Answers

The Dylan sister Jane received 1/5 marbles, which is a part of 25 if the Dylan has a total of 25 marbles.

What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

The total number of marbles Dylan has = 25

The total number of marbles Dylan gave to his sister = 5

If we choose one marble out of 25 = 1/25

If we choose 5 marbles = 5(1/25) = 1/5

Thus, the Dylan sister Jane received 1/5 marbles, which is a part of 25 if the Dylan has a total of 25 marbles.

billy has 2.4m of ribbon for crafts. he wants to share it evenly with 12 friends. how many centimeters of ribbon would 7 friends get

Answers

The 7 friends would get 1.4m of ribbon.

You would have to do 2.4 divided by 12 to get 0.2. Then multiply 0.2 by 7 to get 1.4.

Answer:

140cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We first have to change 2.4 meters into centimeters. And the formula for that is (x)m = (x)cm x 100.

So 2.4 x 100 = (x)m. We can solve this by moving the "." two times to the right and we will get 2.4m = 240cm.

The next step is to divide it by twelve because Billy wants to share it with 12 friends. 240cm/12 = 20cm per person.

Then we have to multiply 20 with 7 to see how many centimeters 7 friends would get.

20*7 = 140. So the answer is 140cm.

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

3.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5  as the denominator :

                    y - 7                (y - 7) • 5

    y - 7 =  —————  =  ———————————

                     1                         5    

Equivalent fraction: The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator: The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

3.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

(y-7) • 5 - (4 • (x+3))     5y - 4x - 47

When a fraction equals zero :

4.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now, to get rid of the denominator, I multiply both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 5y-4x-47

 ———————— • 5 = 0 • 5

    5    

Now, on the left hand side, the  5  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  5y-4x-47  = 0

Equation of a Straight Line

4.2     Solve   5y-4x-47  = 0

CalderonJ recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx + b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on a Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" is the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  5y-4x-47  = 0 and calculate its properties

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 47/5 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y= 9.40000

 y-intercept = 47/5  =  9.40000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 47/-4 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-11.75000

 x-intercept = 47/-4  = -11.75000

Calculate the Slope :

The slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 9.400 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 11.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 11.000 - 9.400 = 1.600 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     =  1.600/2.000 =  0.800

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{12}-\frac{y^2}{24}=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the directrices are vertical lines:

Use the hyperbola equation [tex]\displaystyle \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex] Foci are [tex](\pm c,0)[/tex][tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex][tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are half the lengths of the tranverse and conjugate axes respectivelyDirectrices are located at the lines [tex]\displaystyle x=\pm\frac{a^2}{c}[/tex]We assume the center to be [tex](h,k)\rightarrow(0,0)[/tex]

Since we already know our directrices are at the lines [tex]x=\pm2[/tex] and we know that [tex]c=\pm6[/tex] from our foci, we can solve for the value of [tex]a^2[/tex]:

[tex]x=\frac{a^2}{c}\\\\2=\frac{a^2}{6}\\\\12=a^2[/tex]

This allows us to solve for the value of [tex]b^2[/tex]:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\12+b^2=6^2\\\\12+b^2=36\\\\b^2=24[/tex]

Thus, our equation for the hyperbola is [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{12}-\frac{y^2}{24}=1[/tex].
