After the first three days, the sample size will be half of the initial; therefore, 400g/2= 200g. However, it is asking how long will it take to decay to 100g, so we will take 200g/2= 100g, which will take another three days.  It will take 2 half-lives, which will encompass 6 days.

Answer:

The second bubble

Explanation

You need to make your exponents equal the other side so to do this;

Distribute the 3 in the exponent "3(x-2)"

Which is 3x-6

And since multiplying exponents adds them, you need a -6 to make the two equal.

So your exponent should equal -6 to make that statement true

Feliz [49]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of days has gone down by a factor of 15/24. The number of workers is inversely proportional, so must increase by a factor of 24/15 = 8/5.

  (5 workers) × (8/5) = 8 workers

8 workers are needed to complete the project in 15 days.
