Answer:

  2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Time, speed, and distance are related by ...

  d = st

The distance covered is ...

  d = (60 mi/h)(3 h) = 180 mi

Then the time taken at the higher speed is ...

  180 mi = (60 mi/h +30 mi/h)(t)

  t = (180 mi)/(90 mi/h) = 2 h

The time taken at the higher speed is 2 hours.

lisov135 [29]

Answer: 4 years


Step-by-step explanation:

A(0) has to be amount at start. Assume that's 5mg

Then A(t) = 5×(0.5)^(0.25t) = 5×2^(-t/4),

(also known as 5 exp(-λ t) with λ = ln(2)/4, incidentally).


We need to such that A(t) = 2.5mg, or 2^(-t/4) is 1/2, which happens when -t/4 is -1, or t is 4.
