Answer:
16 minutes per meter
Step-by-step explanation:
Depth = 3/8 meters
Time taken = 6 minutes
What is the unit rate in minutes per meter?
Time taken per depth = minutes per meter
Unit rate in minutes per meter = 6 minutes ÷ 3/8 meters
= 6 minutes × 8/3 meters
= 48/3
= 16 minutes per meter
Geometric sequence general form: a * r^n
For Greg, we are given the elimination of the medicine as a geometric nth term equation:
200 * (0.88)^t
The amount of medicine starts at 200 mg and every hour, decreases by 12%;
To compare the decrease in medicine in the body between the two, it is useful to get them in a common form;
So, using the data provided for Henry, we will also attempt to find a geometric nth term equation that will work if we can:
As a geometric sequence, the first term would be a and the second term would be ar where r = multiplier;
If we divide the second term by the first term, we will therefore get r, which is 0.94 for Henry;
We can check that the data for Henry can be represented as a geometric sequence by using the multiplier (r) to see if we can generate the third value of the data;
We do this like so:
282 * (0.94)^2 = 249.18 (correct to 2 d.p)
We can tell that the data for Henry is also a geometric sequence.
So now, we just look at the multiplier for Henry and we find that every hour, the medicine decreases by 6%, half of the rate of decrease for Greg.
The answer is therefore that <span>Henry's body eliminated the antibiotic at half of the rate at which Greg's body eliminated the antibiotic.</span>

Answer:
n = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
n + 19 = 40 ( subtract 19 from both sides )
n = 40 - 19 = 21
Answer:
<em>3/8 of the box cereal</em>
Step-by-step explanation: First you must convert 3/4, 1/8, and 1/4 so they have to same denominator. Four can go into eight two times, so you must multiply the numerator by two. So your new fractions are 6/8, 1/8, and 2/8. Now you must subtract 1/8 and 2/8 from 6/8. When you subtract 1/8 from 6/8 you get 5/8. Now subtract 2/8 from 5/8 and you get <em>3/8. </em>That is how you get the answer, I hope this helps you.
