Point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where slope=m
and (x1,y1) is a given point

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(6-7)/(-8-(-5))=-1/(-8+5)=-1/-3=1/3

pick any point
(x,y)
(-5,7)

y-7=1/3(x+5) or
y-6=1/3(x+8)

suppose that a severe virus in impacting a bee colony and the population of bees has a half life of 5 days What percentage of th
BartSMP [9]
So we want to know what percentage of bees would survive a virus after 19 days of decay if the bee population has a half life of 5 days. So every 5 days 50% of bees die. Lets say that N is the number of bees before the virus. So after 5 days is 50% less bees, so 50% of N remains. After another 5 days again, 50% bees die, and 50% out of 50% is 25%. So after 10 days, 25% of bees remain or 25%N or 0.25*N. After another 5 days its 12.5 % of bees remain or 0.125*N. And after 4 days 40% more bees die. And that is 0.4*0.125*N = 0.05N. 0.05*100% is 5%. So after 19 days, 5% of bees remain and 95% of bees is dead.
