Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The above question is in the form of an exponential decay. The equation for an exponential decay is given by:
where y and x are variables, b < 1, a is the initial value of y (that is the value of y when x = 0).
Let y represent the number of trees left and x represent the number of months. Given that there is currently 2.5 billion trees, therefore a = 2.5 * 10⁹, b = 0.5% = 0.005. The equations becomes:
C- is either a or c
Explanation -
Hello,
If the teacher has 1/2 of an eraser, and she divides it into 2 pieces to give 1 to each of her students, she gives (1/2) / 2 = (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4 of the eraser to each student.
Each student takes home 1/4 of the eraser.
Hope this helps!
-x² + 8x - 6 = 0
x = <u>-(8) +/- √((8)² - 4(-1)(-6))</u>
