Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount remaining at the end of each hour is 0.85 of the amount at the start of the hour. You want to find the exponent such that ...
... 0.85^x = 0.5 . . . . . x = the number of hours until half is left
... x·log(0.85) = log(0.5) . . . . . take the log to turn it to a linear equation
... x = log(0.5)/log(0.85) ≈ 4.265024
Rounded to the nearest hour, x = 4.
Your answer is True!

3+2g=5g-9
5g-2g=3+9
3g=12
3g/3=12/3
g=4
If 450 is 1/4 of the amount that Henry has, you can find Henry’s amount by multiplying 450 • 4 which gives you an answer of 1800
Or, if you’re looking for a more complicated way, which I doubt, you can set up the problem as:
1/4x=450 and solve by dividing 450 by 1/4
