Nitrogen-16 has a half-life of about 7.13 seconds. After 36.0 seconds, there would be 3 half-lives. Therefore, 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8 of the original sample remains unchanged.

If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 150 and the denominator of the fraction is increased by 300 the resultant fraction is 518. What is original fraction?

The original fraction is -145/(-282) or it could be 850/35700 or one of infinitely many possibilities.

How many unchanges atoms would remain after 3 half lives if the initial sample had 600 unchanged atoms?

After 3 half-lives, half of the original sample would remain unchanged. After the 1st half-life: 300 unchanged atoms. After the 2nd half-life: 150 unchanged atoms. After the 3rd half-life: 75 unchanged atoms would remain.

How do you make a remainder into a fraction?

The fraction is the remainder divided by the original divisor.


when you multiply a function by -1 what is the effect on its graph?

Why do you multiply the whole number by the denominator to get a mixed fraction?

You don't. But you do. When converting a mixed number into an improper fraction. A mixed fraction contains a whole number and a proper fraction, for example 23⁄4. To convert this to an 'improper' fraction, the whole number is multiplied by the denominator and added to the numerator to obtain the new numerator. See. but WHY? The denominator remains unchanged (unless, of course, you wish to simplify the fraction). This is unrelated! At no point did you actually provide an answer to this question.Continuing with the original example, for 23⁄4, (2 · 4 + 3) = 11, so the new fraction is 11⁄4.Ps. Anything in italics has been improved by another person.

What part of a fraction that represents the total?

It is the denominator of the original fraction. If the fraction has been simplified you have no way to get back to the total.


How do you write a mixed number to a fraction?

You multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator of the original fraction to get the numerator of your new fraction. The denominator stays the same as the original. Then you simplify into lowest terms.


When does a vector remain unchanged?

A vector remains unchanged when it is multiplied by a scalar of 1. This is because multiplying a vector by a scalar of 1 effectively scales the vector without changing its direction.
