Answer:

73.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached.

Half life (t1/2) = 9 days

Time taken (t) = 4 days

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

Substituting values;

0.693/9 = 2.303/4 log(No/N)

0.693/9 × 4/2.303= log(No/N)

2.772/20.727= log(No/N)

Antilog (2.772/20.727)=No/N

1.36 = No/N

Therefore;

N/No = (1.36)^-1

N/No = 0.735

Percentage remaining after 4 days= 0.735× 100= 73.5%

In 15 minutes, Jada would have covered about 2.5 miles, while the cousin would have covered 0.625 miles.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is the ratio of distance to time.

For Jada:

Speed = 2 miles / 12 minutes = 0.167 miles per minute

For Jada cousin:

Speed = 1 mile / 24 min = 0.0417 miles per minute.

Hence, in 15 minutes:

Jada distance = 15 min * 0.167 miles per minute = 2.5 miles

Jada cousin distance = 15 min * 0.167 miles per minute = 0.625 miles

In 15 minutes, Jada would have covered about 2.5 miles, while the cousin would have covered 0.625 miles.
