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.

Suppose that y varies directly with x, and y=15 when x=24. Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Find y when x
Lapatulllka [165]

Just set up a proportion with the original numbers and then the numbers you want to find like so: (x1/y1)=(x2/y2) and since you want to find the second y value, just leave y as a variable like so: (15/24)=(3/y) after this just cross multiply and get the answer: 15y=72.....y=4.8
