When a water-cooled nuclear power plant is in operation, oxygen in the water is transmuted to nitrogen-17. After the reactor is shut down, the radiation from the nitrogen-17 decreases in such a way that the rate of change in the radiation level is directly proportional to the radiation level.Required:
Write a differential equation that expresses the rate of change in the radiation level in terms of the radiation level.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The differential equation is (dR)/(dt) = -kR

Step-by-step explanation:

Differential equation for the rate of change in radiation level:

Radiation level is R.

Rate of change indicates that the radiation level R varies in function of time t, which mathematically means that we have:

(dR)/(dt)

After the reactor is shut down, the radiation from the nitrogen-17 decreases in such a way that the rate of change in the radiation level is directly proportional to the radiation level.

Rate of change is k. Decreases means that k is negative. Proportional to the radiation level of R means that -k multiplies R. So the differential equation is:

(dR)/(dt) = -kR

Solution

Two proportion z test is used to compare two proportions. In this test the null hypothesis is that the two proportions are equal and the alternate hypothesis is that the proportions are not the same. The random sample of populations serve as two proportions.

Three students were given the expression shown and were asked to take a common factor out of two of the terms. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements about whether each student's answer is an equivalent expression. Then choose an expression that is equivalent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 4 - 9x +21

Factorizing this expression, we have;

              4 -3(3x - 7)

i. Chang's expression: 4 - 3(3x + 7)

This is not an equivalent expression, because by expansion of the bracket, the expression gives: 4 -9x -21

ii. Benjamin's expression: 4 + 3(3x + 7)

This is not an equivalent expression, because by expansion of the bracket, the expression gives: 4 +9x +21

iii. Habib's expression: 4 + 12x

This is not an equivalent expression, because the expression is not related to the given question

Comparing the three student's answers with the appropriate expression, none of the student's is an equivalent expression.

This expression that is  equivalent to the given question is;

            4 -3(3x - 7) = 4 -9x + 21

Lupe has 14 stickers that she wants to give to 2 friends. She wants each friend to have the same number of stickers. Select the three statements that describe how Lupe should give the stickers to her friends. Each friend gets 14÷2 stickers. Each friend gets 2 of the 14 stickers. Each friend gets 142 stickers. Each friend gets 7 of the 14 stickers.

Answers

Answer:

The correct options are 1, 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Lupe has 14 stickers that she wants to give to 2 friends.

Total number of stickers Lupe has is 14.

The number of friends is 2.

She wants each friend to have the same number of stickers. It means each friend will get half of 14.

The number stickers Lupe should give to her friends is 14 divided by 2.

\text{Number of stickers}=14/ 2

Write this value in fraction form.

\text{Number of stickers}=(14)/(2)

\text{Number of stickers}=7

It means the correct statements are

1. Each friend gets 14÷2 stickers.

3. Each friend gets (14)/2 stickers.

4. Each friend gets 7 of the 14 stickers.

Hence correct options are 1, 3 and 4.

Each friend gets 7 of the 14 stickers. They will get 7 because their are 2 Friends and she has 14 stickers to make sure they get an even amount you can dived 14 by 2 and you will get your answer

Emily drove to town with an average speed of 32 miles per hour, and then back home with an average speed of 38 miles per hour. If her total traveling time was 42 minutes, how far is it from home to town?

Answers

Answer:

  • 12.16 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed - s,   Distance - d,  Time - t

Equation of time is:

  • t = d/s

Given,

  • s1 = 32 m/h, s2 = 38 m/h, t1 + t2 = 42 min = 42/60 h = 7/10 h

Total time is the sum of time values to and from the town:

  • d/32 + d/38 = 7/10
  • d/16 + d/19 = 7/5
  • d(1/16 + 1/19) = 7/5
  • d(16 + 19) = 7(16*19)/5
  • 35d = 425.6
  • d = 425.6/35
  • d = 12.16

It is given that,

→ s1= 32 miles/h

→ s2 = 38 miles/h

Now t1 + t2 is,

→ 42 min

→ 42/60 hours

→ 7/10 hours

The formula we use,

→ Time = Distance/Speed

→ t = d/s

Then the total time is the,

Sum of time values to and from the town.

→ d/32 + d/38 = 7/10

→ d/16 + d/19 = 7/5

→ d{(1/16) + (1/19)} = 7/5

→ d(16 + 19) = (7/5) × (16 × 19)

→ 35d = 425.6

→ d = 425.6/35

→ d = 12.16

Hence, the distance is 12.16 miles.
