What will the population be after 50 years? nuclear waste site. How long would it take for it to decay into 20 lbs? 2. One type of bacteria triples every 8 hours. Starting with 100 bacteria, how many will there be 2. Let’s say a substance has a half-life of six days. If after 18 hours? there are 80 grams present now, how much is left after three days? 3. A forest has a population of 1000 birds. Due to deforestation, the bird population is decreasing at 3. Lead-209 is a radioactive isotope. It has a half-life a rate of 5% per year. Calculate the size of the bird of 6.3 hours. Suppose that 100 milligrams of this population after 10 years. isotope is created in an experiment, how much is left after 24 hours? 4. The cost of a car model decreases in value at a continuous rate of 8% per year. If a car costs 4.The population of a community was 2 500. After 20,000 USD when new, what will it be worth after 30 years it was found that the population grew to 5 years? 36 000. What will the population be after 50 years?
5. An artifact originally had 10 grams of carbon-14. 5. One type of bacteria triples every 4 hours. Using the model A=Aoe−0.000121t, determine how Starting with 100 bacteria, how many will there be many grams of carbon-14 the artifact will have after 48 hours? after 250,000 years.? 6. A forest has a population of 2000 birds. Due to 6. The doubling time of a population of flies is eight deforestation, the bird population is decreasing at days. If there are initially 100 flies, how many flies a rate of 4% per year. Calculate the size of the bird will there be in 17 days? population after 12 years.
