You divide 16 by 2 to get how many tiles that are laid in 1/3 of an hour. Then multiply that by 3 to get how many tiles in one whole hour. The answer should be 24.

16 is equivalent to 2/3 therefore you just multiply by 3/2 because 2/3 times 3/2 gives you one which would give you the number of square feet per hour and x would be the amount of square feet per hour made. To show in steps...
16=2/3x
16(3/2)= 2/3 (3/2)
24=1 hour

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After graphing the function f(x) = $4(\frac{1}{2})^{x}$ we can see that the correct graph is the middle one in the picture. This is because with an x-input of 1 the value of 1/2 will stay the same and when multiplied by 4 it would give us a y-coordinate of 2 as seen in the middle graph. The y-coordinate keeps decreasing exponentially by half for every increase in the x-coordinate. A zoomed-in version of the graph can be seen in the attached picture below for a better understanding.
