We know that
Half-life is modeled by the formula
An=A0*(0.5)<span>^[t/h)]
where
An----------> </span>is the amount remaining after a time t
A0----------> is the initial quantity
t------------> is the time
h------------> is the half-life of the decaying quantity

in this problem
h=1601 years
A0=50 g
An=?
t=100 years
An=A0*(0.5)^[t/h)]---------> An=50*(0.5)^[100/1601)]-----> 47.88 gr

the answer is 47.88 g

6 people sharing 40 lbs of gold evenly. How many do they get? Then subtract 1 2/3 from the result of the problem above &amp; sim
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Number of people = 6

Amount of Gold to be shared = 40lbs

Subtract 2/3 from your answer.

Therefore

If six people are to share 40lbs of gold evenly

= 40lbs / 6

Divide through by 2

= 20lbs / 3

= 20lbs / 3 - 2/3

= 18/3

= 6

Each person would get approximately 6lbs of gold

Two distinct number cubes, one red and one blue, are rolled together. Each number cube has sides numbered 1 through 6. What is t
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two distinct number cubes, one red and one blue, are rolled together

To find: probability that the outcome of the roll is an even sum or a sum that is a multiple of 3

Solution:

If two dices are rolled together, possible outcomes are as follows:

(1,1) (1,2)(1,3)(1,4)(1,5)(1,6)

(2,1)(2,2)(2,3)(2,4)(2,5)(2,6)

(3,1)(3,2)(3,3)(3,4)(3,5)(3,6)

(4,1)(4,2)(4,3)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)

(5,1)(5,2)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5)(5,6)

(6,1)(6,2)(6,3)(6,4)(6,5)(6,6)

So, total number of outcomes = 36

In order to find probability that the outcome of the roll is an even sum or a sum that is a multiple of 3, favourable outcomes are

(1,1) (1,2)(1,3)(1,5)

(2,1)(2,2)(2,4)(2,6)

(3,1)(3,3)(3,5)(3,6)

(4,2)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)

(5,1)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5)

(6,2)(6,3)(6,4)(6,6)

Number of favourable outcomes = 24

Probability that the outcome of the roll is an even sum or a sum that is a multiple of 3 = Number of favourable outcomes/Total Number of outcomes = \frac{24}{36} =\frac{2}{3}

Suppose that a restaurant chain claims that its bottles of ketchup contain 24 ounces of ketchup on average, with a standard devi
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Confidence Interval = (23.776, 24.224)

Step-by-step explanation:

Restaurant chain claims that its bottles of ketchup contain 24 ounces of ketchup on average.

⇒ Mean = 24 ounces.

Standard Deviation = 0.8

Number of bottles used for sample = 49

⇒ n = 49

Confidence level = 95%

Corresponding z value with 95% confidence level = 1.96

Now, confidence interval is given by the following expression :

Mean \pm z^*\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=24\pm1.96\times \frac{0.8}{\sqrt{49}}\\\\=24\pm 0.224

Hence, Confidence Interval = (23.776, 24.224)

Marge cut 16 pieces of tape for mounting pictures on posterboard each piece of tape is 3/8 inches long how much tape did Marge u
daser333 [38]

Answer:

6 inches of tape

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of tape that Marge used, you can take the measure of each piece (\frac{3}{8}) and multiply by the total number of pieces cut (16):

\frac{3}{8}*\frac{16}{1}=\frac{48}{8}=6inches

So, Marge used 6 inches of tape altogether.
