So it will be y1-y2, so 15-20 is -5
Then x1-x2, so 10-15 is -5.
-5/-5 = 1
There’s ya slope : 1
Answer:
18 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)
where A is the final amount,
A₀ is the initial amount,
t is the time,
and T is the half life.
A = 140 when t = 10. Solve for the half life:
140 = 700 (½)^(10 / T)
0.2 = ½^(10 / T)
log 0.2 = (10 / T) log 0.5
10 / T = 2.32
T = 4.31
When A = 40, t is:
40 = 700 (½)^(t / 4.31)
0.057 = ½^(t / 4.31)
log 0.057 = (t / 4.31) log 0.5
t / 4.31 = 4.13
t = 17.8
Rounded to the nearest whole number, it takes 18 minutes.
3/3=1 and 7/8 is < 1 so 3/3 is bigger
