Answer:
The equation is 
at a rate of -23%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Decay can be represented by the equation 
. We can find the rate at which it decays by using t=3 hours and A=3000. This means 
in this context.
After substituting, we divided by 6000 to each side to get 0.5 on the left. Now to solve for r, we will take the natural log of both sides and use log rules to isolate r.
We know 
so we were able to cancel it out and divide both sides by 3.
We solve with a calculator 
We change -0.23 into a percent by multiplying by 100 to get -23% as the rate.
The equation is
All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16
Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8
Selection D is appropriate.
_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))

Answer: 5.6 cm
Step by Step: I used the same formula as the question before and I got the answer for this question. When solving questions like this, you can work backwards from the problem and then solve
S= 5? that's at the top of my head
