Answer:
5a. approximately 6 grams remain after 2 seconds
5b. The graph shown cannot be a solution. The solution has negative slope everywhere.
5c. y = 50/(t+5)
5d. The amount is changing at a decreasing rate. (As y gets smaller, so does the magnitude of dy/dt.)
Step-by-step explanation:
5a. The tangent line has the equation ...
y = f'(0)t +f(0)
Here, that is
y = -0.02·10²·t +10 = 10 -2t
Then at t=2, the value is ...
y = 10 -2·2 = 6 . . . . grams remaining

5b. y² is always positive (or zero), so -0.02y² will be negative. This is dy/dt, the slope of the curve with respect to time, so any curve with positive slope somewhere cannot be a solution.

5c. The equation is separable so can be solved by integrating ...
∫y^-2·dy = -0.02∫dt
-y^-1 = -0.02t +c . . . . for some arbitrary constant c
Multiplying by -50 gives ...
50/y = t + c . . . . for some constant c
We can find the value of c by invoking the initial condition. At t=0, y=10, so we have ...
50/10 = 0 +c = 5
Then, solving for y, we get ...
y = 50/(t+5)

5d. As noted above (and as described by the differential equation), the magnitude of the rate of change is proportional to the square of y. As y decreases, its rate of change will also decrease (faster). You can see that the curve for y flattens out as t increases. The amount of the substance is changing at a decreasing rate.
