Answer:

24%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of kilograms, y, of original oxygen that remain in the body after t hours can be modeled by the equation y = 0.32(0.76)^t . What is the rate of decrease of original oxygen?

The formula for Exponential Decrease is given as:

y = a(1 - r)^t

Where

y = Amount after time t

a = Original amount

r = Rate of decrease

t = Time

Comparing both Equations

y = 0.32(0.76)^t = y = a(1 - r)^t

We know that

0.76 = 1 - r

Solving for r

Collect like terms

r = 1 - 0.76

r = 0.24

Converting to Percentage

= 0.24 × 100

= 24%

Therefore, the rate of decrease of original oxygen is 24%

<u>answer:</u>  x = 5

<u>work:</u>

5x+10=7x+4  | subtract 5x and move it over to the 7x, and solve

10 = 2x + 4  | subtract 4 and move it over to the 10, and solve

6 = 2x  | divide by 2

3 = x  | final answer

iogann1982 [59]
Remmeber you can do anything to an equaiton as long as you do it to btoh sides
5-6(a+2)=7+a
distribute
5-6a-12=7+a
add like terms
-6a-7=7+a
add 6a both sides
-7=7+7a
minus 7 both sides
-14=7a
divide by 7
-2=a
a=-2
