Answer:

the total population is 2,000

Step-by-step explanation:

so if we double 16 we get 32% and we have 640 residents then we ad 8% which gets us to an even number of 40% and therefor we add half the 16% to our 640 to get 800 and this is sounding complicated but stick with me. now that we have 40% of the population is 800 people then 80% is 1,600 then we add half or 20% and get 100% is 2,000 people

adoni [48]
<span> half life i= 78 hours 
 amount after 78 hours is 395 kg: 
395 = 790e^(k*78) 

Dividing by 790 and taking natural log
ln (395/790) = (k*78) 
-0.6931 = 78k 
-0.00888 = k  

lets calculate  how much is left after 18 hours: 
Amount(18)
= 790e^(-0.00888*18) 
Amount = 673.301 kg
