Answer:

t = 1/2 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

20480 = 80x^{t }

20480 = 80x^{4 }

20480/80  =  x^{4 }

256 =  x^{4 }

x = 4

doubling period

2 = 4^{t}

t = 1/2 hour

Bodmass<br><br>-3[2/6+8{-9/3(8-5*3)-6}]​
Vadim26 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -361

Step-by-step explanation:

Your calculator can tell you the result. It is -361.

Start with the inner parentheses and work outward. Do multiplication and division in the order shown, left to right, before addition or subtraction.

  -3[2/6+8{-9/3(8-5*3)-6}]​

  = -3[2/6+8{-9/3(8-15)-6}]​

  = -3[2/6+8{-9/3(-7)-6}]​

  = -3[2/6+8{-3(-7)-6}]​

  = -3[2/6+8{21-6}]​

  = -3[2/6+8{15}]

  = -3[1/3+8{15}]

  = -3[1/3+120]

  = -3[361/3]

  = -361
