Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. I will assume the function is:

Required
Determine the rate of decay
In an exponential function
,
The decay rate of the function is calculated as:

By comparison:

So, the equation becomes:

Make r the subject


<em>The rate of decay is 0.14</em>
So if 18 + x =43, then what you need to do is
18 + x =43
-18 -18
——————
x = 25
because whatever you do to one side, you need to do to the other
Answer:
Nicole should take 13 1/8 cups of snack mix.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a serving size is 7/8 and Nicole wants to take 15 serving sizes (15 7/8's), then we must multiply 7/8 by 15:
15 × 7/8
Write 15 over 1 (15 = 15/1) to make the calculations easier:
15/1 × 7/8
Multiply the numerators and denominators separately:
15 × 7 / 1 × 8
105 / 8
Instructions don't say you have to do this but I will convert this improper fraction into a mixed number:
105/8 = 13 1/8
