You read 2/5 of the remainder on Sunday. That means 3/5 of the remainder are unread (1- 2/5). It is given that 36 pages are unread. Therefore 3/5 of the remainder is equal to 36. Set up equation and solve for x which will be the remainder
3/5x=36
x=36(5/3)
x=60

Answer:
B I'm pretty sure
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Ending Amt = Bgng Amt * e ^-0.03t
In this equation, the "-0.03" is the decay factor or "k"
We can now solve for half-life by this equation:
</span>t = <span>(<span>ln [y(t) ÷ a]<span>)<span> ÷ -k (we can say beginning amount = 200 and ending amount = 100
</span></span></span></span>t = <span>(<span>ln [200 ÷ 100]<span>)<span> ÷ -k
</span></span></span></span>t = <span>(<span>ln [2]<span>)<span> ÷ -k
</span></span></span></span>t = 0.69314718056<span> ÷ --.03
t =</span><span><span><span> 23.1049060187
