Answer:

2.2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the compound decay formula shown below to solve this:

F=P(1-r)^t

Where

F is the final amount (what we want to find)

P is the present amount (490 grams)

r is the rate of decay, in decimal (28.6% = 28.6/100 = 0.286)

t is the time in minutes (16)

Substituting, we get:

F=P(1-r)^t\\F=490(1-0.286)^{16}\\F=490(0.714)^{16}\\F=2.2355

So, after 16 minutes, 2.2355 grams will be remaining.

<em>Rounded to nearest tenth of a gram (1 decimal place) = </em><em>2.2 grams remaining</em>

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

6, 7, and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

2x/3 + 7 <u>></u> 11

Subtract 7 from both sides

2x/3 <u>></u> 4

Multiply both sides by 3

2x <u>></u> 12

Divide both sides by 2

x <u>></u> 6

6, 7, and 8 are the ones that work
