Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. I will assume the function is:

f(t) = 15(0.86)^t

Required

Determine the rate of decay

In an exponential function f(x) = ab^x,

The decay rate of the function is calculated as:

1 - r = b

By comparison:

b = 0.86

So, the equation becomes:

1 - r = 0.86

Make r the subject

r = 1 - 0.86

r = 0.14

<em>The rate of decay is 0.14</em>

Answer:

21 pairs of socks

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find out how much money Chang has to spend on socks by subtracting the price of sneakers from his total money to spend by solving 160 - 95. From that, we get our answer of $65 that Chang has to spend on socks. We can divide 65 by 3 to see how many pairs of socks he can buy and we get our answer of 21 pairs of socks.

(sorry if it's confusing but I hope it helped anyway)
