I'll Be Solving Two Different Questions.

Formula For Both : N(t)=N_{o}E^{-kt}

1. A 40 gram sample of a substance thats used for drug research has a k-value of 0.1455

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}N(t)=40E^{-0.1455t}\end{array}\right]

2. A 40 gram sample of a substance thats used for drug research has a k-value of 0.1446.

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}N(t)=40E^{-0.1446t}\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}Number&1\end{array}\right]

We Determine That 20 Is Half Of 40.

With That Being Said

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}N(t)=40E^{-0.1455t}&=20\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}In(E^{-0.1455})=\frac{In\frac{1}{2} }{-0.1455} \end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}T=\frac{In\frac{1}{2} }{-0.1455}&Or&T=\frac{-In(2)}{0.1455}\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-0.5In/0.1455\\=4.76\end{array}\right]

Rounding It To Be [ 4.8 ]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}Number&2\end{array}\right]

Again 20 Is Determined To Be Half Of 40

With That Being Said

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}N(t)=40E^{-0.1446t}&=20\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}In(E^{-0.1446})=\frac{In\frac{1}{2} }{-0.1446} \end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}T=\frac{In\frac{1}{2} }{-0.1446}&Or&T=\frac{-In(2)}{0.1446}\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-0.5In/0.1446\\=4.79\end{array}\right]

The substance's half-life is the time t that satisfies

\dfrac12=e^{-kt}

Solve for t:

\ln\dfrac12=\ln e^{-kt}
-\ln2=-kt\ln e
\dfrac{\ln2}k=t

Which means the half-life is t\approx4.8 days.

Ratio expresses the relationship between two numbers. It shows the frequency of the number of times that one value is contained in another number. The sign used to represent ratios is :

<h3>Determining the total cards made. </h3>

Total card = (sum of ratios x number of get well cards) / ratio of get well cards

(11 x 60) / 5 = 132

<h3>Number of birthday cards made </h3>

4(-6^2+3) - 2 - 1/2       Exponents first

4(-36 +3) - 2 - 1/2         Now solve the parentheses

4(-33) -2 -1/2

-132- 2 -1/2
