Answer:
16% is the percent of increase to the nearest whole-number percent.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the cost of a pound of nails increased from $2.17 to $2.52.
so dividing the 0.35 by 2.17 would give us the percetange of increase
- 0.35/2.17 = 0.16 which is 16%.
Therefore, 16% is the percent of increase to the nearest whole-number percent.
The general way to work this out is to solve the general expression for
the remaining quantity versus half-life, using logarithms. But that's not
necessary with these numbers.
Look at the numbers:
-- 3 mg is 1/4 of 12 mg.
-- 1/4 is the product of (1/2) x (1/2).
-- So the 3 mg is what's left of 12 mg after 2 half-lives.
The 26 minutes must be two half-lives.
-- The half-life of that substance is 26/2 = <em>13 minutes</em>.

Answer:
{8, 24, 72, 216, 648}
Step-by-step explanation:
Geometric sequence:
In a geometric sequence, the quotient of consecutive terms is always the same, that is, each term is the previous term multiplied by the common ratio.
In this question:
First element is 8, common ratio of 3. So
Second term: 8*3 = 24
Third term: 24*3 = 72
Fourth term: 72*3 = 216
Fifth term: 216*3 = 648
So the answer is {8, 24, 72, 216, 648}
