The half-life is defined to be the time it takes for any specified property, in this case, mass, to be half of its original value. Thus, given the equation:
N = No*e^-kt, with N = 9, No = 18, and k = 0.1226, the value of t, in days, can be determined. Solving the equation, the half-life of the substance, or the time it takes for the sample to be 9 grams is 5.7 days.

The scatter plot below shows the high temperature for one day and the number of coats in the theater coat check on that same day
Setler [38]

Answer:

the number of coats in the coat check will most likely decrease if the temperatures decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Im guessing this answer: Number of coats in the coat check will decrease because the graph shows negative association

But it could also be this answer: Number of coats in the coat check will decrease because the graph shows positive association

I think the graph shows a negative association because when the temperature goes down, the coat check goes down as well
