A number decreased by 5 is less than 32

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: I believe they want you to write an equation...

"a number" = x
"decreased by 5" = -5
"is less than 32" = <32

x - 5 < 32

That is the equation.

If you solve it...

x < 32+ 5
x < 37

x can be any number less than 37 to keep the equation true.

Answer 2

Answer: No. A number DECREASED by 5 IS 32. That means you ADD 5. So the correct answer is 37.

There are 2000 pounds in one ton, so we simply need to multiply the amount of pounds in one ton by the amount of tons we have.

2000 * 6 = 12000

There are 12,000 lbs in 6 tons.
Hope that helped! =)

Well, first things first!

1 ton=2,000 pounds

So, you need 6 tons, right?

Now, all you got to do is simply do 2,000*6

Last but not least, you will get 12,000 pounds.

$(-2n-2)/(12) = 12$

n=

Answers

$(-2n-2)/(12) = 12 \n \n (-2(n + 1))/(12) = 12 \ / \ factor \ out \ 2 \n \n - (n+1)/(6) = 12 \ / \ simplify \n \n -n - 1 = 12 * 6 \ / \ multiply \ each \ side \ by \ 6 \n \n -n - 1 = 72 \ / \ simplify \n \n -n = 72 + 1 \ / \ add \ 1 \ to \ each \ side \n \n -n = 73 \ / \ simplify \n \n n = -73 \ / \ multiply \ each \ side \ by \ -1 \n \n$

So, your answer to this problem is n = -73.

Hi

$(-2n-2)/(12) = 12 \n \n -2n-2 = 12*12 = 144 \n -2n-2 = 144 \n -2n = 144+2 \n -2n = 146 \n n = (146)/(-2) \n n = -73$

how much of a radioactive kind of yttrium will be left after 20 hours if you start with 720 grams and half-life is 10 hours

Answers

Answer:

180 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that after each half life , the radioactive substance will become half of the initial .

Given half life of the radioactive yttrium is 10 hours .

So, in 20 hours two half lives will be present .

After first half life , substance will become half of initial ,

Initially it was 720 grams , so it will become 360 grams after first half life that is 10 hours .

Now , after second half life , It will again become half of the quantity present after first half life which is 360 grams so it will become 180 grams.

Thus,

After 20 hours only 180 grams of the yttrium will be present.
