Since there are 5 possible outcomes and 3 is only one of the outcomes, the probability would be 1/5 or 20%

Hey there! Hello!

For this problem, there's an equal chance you will land on 1 of the 5 spots, no matter which spot it is. This also applies to spot 3, since it is 1 of the available 5 spots to land on. This means that there is a 1 in 5 chance that it will land on spot 3. This can also be expressed as a 20% chance.

Hope this helped you out!

Soon after taking an aspirin, a patient has absorbed 320 mg of the drug. after 3 hours, only 40 mg remain. find an exponential m

Anastaziya [24]

The equation will be of the form:
$A(t)= A_{0} e^{rt}$
where A is the amount after t hours, and r is the decay constant.
To find the value of r, we plug the given values into the equation, giving:
$40=320e^{3r}$
Rearranging and taking natural logs of both sides, we get:
$ln\ 0.125=3r$
$r=\frac{ln\ 0.125}{3}=-0.693$
The required model is:
$A=A _{0} e^{-0.693t}$

What is the value of m in the equation 4m + 2(m + 1) = 9m + 5

ratelena [41]

M=-1

4m+2(m+1)=9m +5
4m+2m+2=9m+5
6m+2=9m+5
6m+2-6m= 9m+5-6m
2-5=3m+5-5
-3/3=3m/3
m=-1
