Hello. In order to solve this problem, you need to write an equation. Hence, you determine this equation:
8 + 2x = 8(x-5)
8 + 2x = 8x - 40
8 + 40 = 8x - 2x
48 = 6x
x = 8.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

So then after 2 hours we will have 32 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the followin exponential model:

n(t) is the quantity after t hours, n is the original quantityand t represent the hours and r the rate constant.
For this case we know that n(0) = 2 grams and n(3) = 128 grams and we want to find n(2)=?
From the initial condition we know that n = 2, and we have the model like this:

Now if we apply the other conditionn(3) = 128 we got:

If we divide both sides by 2 we got:

If we apply natural log for both sides we got:


And our model is this one:

And if we replace t = 2 hours we got:

So then after 2 hours we will have 32 grams.
Since it as at the same time and place.
Let x be the length of the shadow of the 40-ft pole.
The ratio from 30 and 8 would have to be the same as 40 and x.
30:8 = 40:x
30/8 = 40/x Cross multiply
30x = 40*8
x = 40*8 / 30 = 32/3 = 10.67
Length of shadow for 40ft is 10.67 ft.
