For this case we have an equation of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ t
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: decrease factor
 t: time
 Substituting values:
 y = 30 * (b) ^ t
 To calculate t we use a point in the table.
 We have:
 (t, y) = (1, 28.5)
 Substituting:
 28.5 = 30 * (b) ^ 1
 b = 28.5 / 30
 b = 0.95
 Answer:
 
a. Decay factor is 0.95

Multiply Conjugates <br><br><br><br><br> (r+1/4)r-1/4)
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\left(r+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\left(r-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=r^2-\dfrac{1}{16}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Use}\ (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2\\\\\left(r+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\left(r-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=r^2-\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^2=r^2-\dfrac{1^2}{4^2}=r^2-\dfrac{1}{16}

I believe it is B, because going down would be negative, and it is subtracting 6.
