So, 0.5^5 is 0.03125
multiply that by 125 and get your answer.
*3.90625* (4)
just saying, I got the 0.5^5 thing because 5 is the number of half-lives (x) and 0.5 is the rate of loss (or whatever its called).
If it were to gain, you would put 1.5
A slope intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y -intercept
A slope of 3/2 is given
So y = 3/2 x + b
To find b:
b = y - mx
A line passes through the point (4, -6)
b = -6 - (3/2)(4)
b = -6 - 6
b = - 12
Answer
Equation in slope intercept form: y = 3/2 x - 12
Answer: x = 65.63
Explanation:
We have, 64% × x = 42 or, 64/100 × x = 42
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 64, we have x = 42 × 100 64
x = 65.63
1. 1/6
