Answer:
156.25 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, for starters we know that the substance decays by 2% each day and its been decaying for 34 days. Therefore, the substance has decayed by 68%
34 x 2 = 68
Hence, 50 grams is 32% because the substance has already decayed by 68%
100 - 68 = 32
So now we know 50 grams is 32%. Now we need to find how much 100% is.
50 - 32%
X - 100%
We cross multiply.
50 x 100 = 5000
And divide.
5000 / 32 = 156.25
Thus, in the beginning, there were 156.25 grams in the substance.
Hope this helps! :)
X = 0 and x= -6 since it's an absolute value it would have 2 solutions
La primera es 264.6
La segunda es 125
