Uranium-238 (U-238) has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. Geologists find a rock containing a mixture of U-238 and lead, and determine that 71% of the original U-238
remains; the other 29% has decayed into lead. How old is the rock?
The rock is ___ billion years old.
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 2.223 billion years old

Step-by-step explanation:

since 71 percent of the rock is remaining, the half life hasn't been reached yet. Hence, we know uranium isn't 4.5 billion years old yet. However, every-time 4.5 billions years pass, the rock get smaller by 2 times(a scale factor of 1/2). Hence, you can express that in a log equation:

[tex]\log_{2}(100/(percent of rock remaining))=[/tex] Fraction of 4.5 billions years of time passed

[tex]\log_{2}(100/50)=1[/tex]   ==> 100% of 4.5 billion years passed. When 50% of rock remains, 4.5 billion years have passed.

[tex]\log_{2}(100/100)[/tex] =

[tex]\log_{2}(1)=0[/tex]   ==> 0% of 4.5 billion years passed. When the rock hasn't decayed at all yet, that means that it is 0 years old.

[tex]\log_{2}(100/71)=0.494[/tex]   ==> 49.4 % of 4.5 billion years passed

0.494*4.5 billion =2.223 billion years passed

2.223 billion years old

Answers

In order to know the appropriate number divisible by 2, 5 and 10. We need to have a look at what type of numbers are divisible by either of these number. So, let's discuss one by one

Divisible by 2

For a number to be divisible by 2, it has to be even i.e. 0, 2, 4, 6 etc. If it is a combination of more than 1 digits, then the ending digit should be even i.e. 24, 20 etc.

Divisible by 5

When we move through the table of 5, we see that each number ends in either 5 or 0 i.e. 5, 10, 15, 20 etc. So, for a number to be divisible by 5, it has to end in either 0 or 5.

Divisible by 10

In case of 10, all of the numbers in the table end in 0's. So, for a number to be divisible by 10. It should end in zero. Such as 100, 1000 etc.

Let's have a look at the given numbers and see which ones are divisible by 2, 5 and 10

We'll write "yes" for the number which are divisible and "No" for the number which are not divisible by either of them.

What is a parabola?

 The parabola is a geometric shape that is formed from the intersection of a vertical plane in a cone.

The canonical equation of a parabola is given by

(y - k)² = 4p(x - h)

The parabola is a quadratic function, it is composed of a vertex, or inflection point, a focus and a directrix.

Since the vertex and the focal axis are on the same axis, we analyze that:

v (0, 0)

f (6, 0) the focus is on the right so the parabola is of the form X = Y².

(y - 0)² = 4p(x - 0)

f = (0 + p, 0)

0 + p = 6

p = 0 + 6

p= 6

(y - 0)² = 4*6(x - 0)

(Y)² = 24(X)

Suppose you are able to download 1 free song to your tablet daily and each additional download costs $0.59. If your monthly bill is $15.34, how many songs did you download if you download 28 free songs? Write an equation and solve for the unknown variable

Answers

With the help of linear equtions it can be concluded that we downloaded 54 songs in which 28 songs were free and 26 songs were paid.

What is a Linear Equation?

A linear equation is an algebraic equation in which each term has an exponent of one and when graphed produces a straight line. That's why it is considered a 'linear equation.'

Let a represent paid downloaded songs.

Total cost of songs downloaded = a x cost of each additional download.

a x $0.59 = $0.59a

The overall cost of downloaded songs is $15.34.

$15.34 =   $0.59a

Divide both sides of the equation by  $0.59.

a = 26 songs

We downloaded 26 paid songs.

Total songs downloaded = total free songs + total paid songs

Total songs downloaded = 26 + 28 = 54 songs

State the property that justifies the following statement.
5(3 x+1)=15 x+5

Answers

The property that justifies the following statement, 5(3 x+1)=15 x+5 is the distributive property.

Distributive property can be described as one of the properties of multiplication which states that if we multiply two or more values that are added together with a number then the result will be the same even if we multiply each value separately with that number and then add them together. This can be given as:

x(y + z) = xy + xz

Therefore, as 5 x 3 = 15 and 5 x 1 =5, we can write the equation 5(3x+1) as 15x + 5 as the result will be the same in both circumstances.

The distributive property not only justifies the equations when two or more values are added but also justifies the equations in which they are subtracted which can be given as:

x(y-z) = xy - xz

So, according to the distributive property, the statement, 5(3 x+1)=15 x+5 is valid.

A plane is flying at a speed of 150 miles per hour. The pilot plans to fly at this speed for the next 160 miles, plus or minus 25 miles. Write an absolute value equation to find the minimum and maximum number of hours the plane will travel at that speed. (Please show an equation with absolute value bars).

Answers

The following is the absolute value equation for figuring out the maximum and minimum period of time: t = |d/v| + |25/v|.

What is relation between speed and distance?A moving body's speed is the distance it travels in one unit of time.If a distance is in kilometers and the time is in hours, the speed is in kilometers per hour.If a distance is measured in meters and the time is measured in seconds, the speed is measured in meters per second.

The parameters provided;

The plane's speed, v, is 150 miles per hour.The pilot's flight distance is d = 160 ± 25 miles.

The number of hours required for the plane to travel just at given values is determined as follows:

Time= distance / speed

The equation for calculating the maximum number of hours is as follows:

t = (d + 25)/v = (160 + 25)/150

t = 1.23 hours.

The equation and for shortest number of hours is as follows:

t = (d - 25)/v = (160 - 25)/150

t = 0.9 hours.

Thus, the absolute value equation for determining the maximum and minimum amount of time is as follows:

t = |d/v| + |25/v|.

Write a quadratic equation that passes through the points -2,8 1,14 0,10

Answers

By solving a system of equations we can see that the quadratic equation is:

y = x^2 + 3x + 10

How to write a quadratic equation that passes through the given points?

A general quadratic equation is given by:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

We want this quadratic equation to pase through the points (-2, 8), (1, 14), and (0, 10).

using the last point, we know that when x = 0, we must have y = 10, then:

10  = a*0^2 + b*0 + c

10 = c

So our quadratic equation is:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + 10

Now we use the other two points to write a system of equations:

8 = a*(-2)^2 + b*(-2) + 10

14 = a*(1)^2 + b*1 + 10

If we simplify these, we get:

-2 = 4*a - 2b

4 = a + b

Isolating a in the second equation we get:

a = 4 - b

Now we replace that in the other equation:

-2 = 4*(4 - b) - 2b

-2 = 16 - 4b -2b

-2 - 16 = -6b

-18/-6 = b = 3

Now that we know the value of b, we replace it in the equation for a:

a = 4 - b = 4 - 3 = 1

Then the quadratic equation is:

For Example : [tex]\frac{\frac{2}{3} }{\frac{5}{7} }[/tex] is an example of complex fraction.

The given question is

=1 + 2/x / 2 + 3 / 2x

[tex]=1+\frac{\frac{2}{x} }{2+\frac{3}{2x} }[/tex]

Taking LCM in the denominator and solving further,

[tex]=1+\frac{\frac{2}{x} }{\frac{4x+3}{2x} }[/tex]

[tex]=1+\frac{2}{x} *\frac{2x}{4x+3}[/tex]

Cancelling out "x" from both numerator and denominator

we get,

=1+(2*2)/(4x+3)

=1+(4)/(4x+3)

Taking LCM as 4x+3 and solving further we get,

=(4x+3+4)/(4x+3)

=(4x+7)/(4x+3)

Therefore , the simplified value of the expression 1 + 2/x / 2 + 3 / 2x is (4x+7)/(4x+3).

The smallest angle by which a regular 30-sided figure can be rotated to look exactly like the original figure is __ degrees.

Answers

Answer:

12°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles of the shape should all add to 360°.

We divide this by 30, because the shape has 30 angles.

360° ÷ 30 = 12°.

This is the measure of each angle, and also the degree of rotation. The shape will look like the original figure each time it is rotated 12°.

A square park has a diagonal walkway from one, corner to another. If the walkway is 120 meters long, what is the approximate length of each side of the park?
F 60 m
G 85 m
H 170 m
J 240m

Answers

The approximate length of each side of the park is 85m .

Pythagoras Theorem states that the sum square of two sides of triangle is equal to the  square of longest side.

According to the question

given that the park is a square

and in square the longest side is it's diagonal and the diagonal is  given to be 120m.

In square all sides of square is same .

let the side be x.

By Applying Pythagoras Theorem in the given ΔABC

[tex]AB^{2} +BC^{2} =AC^{2}[/tex]

Substituting the values  we get

[tex]x^{2} +x^{2} =120^{2}[/tex]

[tex]2x^{2} =120^{2} \\ \\ 2x^{2} =14400\\ \\ x^{2} =7200[/tex]

[tex]x=\sqrt{7200} =60\sqrt{2}[/tex] = 84.85 ≅ 85

Therefore ,  the approximate length of each side of the park is 85m .
