Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The above question is in the form of an exponential decay. The equation for an exponential decay is given by:

where y and x are variables, b < 1, a is the initial value of y (that is the value of y when x = 0).
Let y represent the number of trees left and x represent the number of months. Given that there is currently 2.5 billion trees, therefore a = 2.5 * 10⁹, b = 0.5% = 0.005. The equations becomes:

Answer:
16. Mst = 104°
17. The value of mPL is 31°
18. 129°
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines never touch they run side by side forever like the rails on railroad tracks
Perpendicular line cross or intersect
Answer:
D.) 1 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
You need 1/5 cups of flour 8 times so you need to multiply 1/5 by 8.
1/5 × 8 = 8/5
Then simplify.
8/5 = 5/5 + 3/5 = 1 3/5
Answer:
144
Step-by-step explanation:
In a regular decagon like the one shown in the picture each angle is 144 degrees and it all adds up to 1,440. If you want proof search up "angle of a decagon"
