As we know that 
x=x0*[1/2]n
putting the values 
375=3000*[1/2]n
375/3000=<span>[1/2]n
</span>1/8=<span>[1/2]n
simplify
[1/2]3=</span><span>[1/2]n
by cancelling them
so n=3
so it will take 3 minutes
hope it helps</span>

Gwar [14]

Answer:

Jim's box hold more t-shirts by 3 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's box length = 2 feet

Jim's box breadth = 4 feet

Jim's box height = 6 feet

Volume of box =Length \times Breadth \times Height = 2 \times 4 \times 6 = 48 feet^3

Paul's box length = 3 feet

Paul's box breadth =5 feet

Paul's box height = 3 feet

Volume of box =Length \times Breadth \times Height =3 \times 5 \times 3 = 45 feet^3

So,Jim's box hold more t shirts by (48-45 = 3 cubic feet )

So, Option C is true

Jim's box hold more t-shirts by 3 cubic feet
