Answer:

<h2>Diana uses 5/8 square yard of fabric for both pillows.</h2><h2>There remains 3/8 square yard of fabric.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • The total amount of fabric is 1 square yard.
  • One pillow requires 3/8 square yard of fabric.
  • A second pillow requires 2/8 square yard of fabric.

To find the total amount of fabric Diana used, we must sum those fractions

\frac{3}{8} +\frac{2}{8}=\frac{5}{8}

Diana uses 5/8 square yard of fabric for both pillows.

Now, we subtract to find the remaining amount of fabric

1-\frac{5}{8}=\frac{8-5}{8}=\frac{3}{8}

Therefore, there remains 3/8 square yard of fabric.

You drink a beverage with 120 mg of caffeine. Each hour, the caffeine in your system decreases by about 12%. How many milligrams
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

 43.16 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

After each hour, the amount remaining is 100% - 12% = 0.88 times the amount present at the beginning of the hour. Then after 8 hours, the amount remaining will be the initial amount multiplied by 0.88 eight times, or ...

  (120 mg)·(0.88^8) ≈ 43.1561 mg ≈ 43.16 mg

_____

Of course, an exponent is used to signify repeated multiplication. You can actually do the multiplication if you like, but most scientific and graphing calculators handle exponentiation easily.
