Answer:

654 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

When you set up this equation you want the number of grams you start with, 2616, and the factor by which it is decreasing, which is half, or 1/2. Because the half life is 11 days, but you want to find the amount left over after 22 days, you can make 22/11 as the exponent on the 1/2. The equation should look like this : 2616(1/2)^22/11. With these kinds of equations you always want to multiply the starting value by the factor of increase/decrease, and raise that factor to the time eclipsed divided by the set time(like the 11 day half life).

Answer:

4.975 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1.5)= -4.9(1.5)^2+4(1.5) + 10\\\\f(1.5) = -4.9(2.25) + 6 + 10\\\\f(1.5) = -11.025 + 6 + 10\\\\f(1.5) = -11.025 + 16 \\\\f(1.5) = 4.975
