Exponential decay is a very common process especially when we are talking about radioactive materials. So, there is already a common formula for this type of behavior which is written below:
A = Pe^-rt
where
A is the amount left after time t
P is the initial amount at t=0
r is the rate
Substituting the values,
A = (780 g)(e^-0.163*16)
A = 57.5 g
Given the polynomial expression:
(y + 5)²
(y - 5)(y + 5)
Let's simplify each of the given expression:
a.) (y + 5)²
The given equation is a factor of a perfect square trinomial. For this type of expression, the following is the formula for expanding it.

We get,


b.) (y - 5)(y + 5)
To be able to simplify the following expression. We will be using the formula for the difference of two squares.

We get,

Answer:
You have a right triangle.
a^2+b^2=c^2
4^2+b^2=256
16+b^2=256
b^2=256-16
b^2=240
b=sqrt240
b=15.49 ft. ans. for the height of the ladder up the wall.
