1 stack of nickels is S=45gm; given that there are 9 nickels on each stack you can divide the mass of the stack(45) by the number of nickels in a stack(9) to find the mass of 1 single nickel
<u>5gm = 1 nickel</u>
<u>5gm = 1 nickel</u>
Drop downs are for the first one

This is a perfect example of exponential decay. In this case the growth factor should be represented by a fraction, and it is! This forest, starting out with apparently ( 800? ) pine trees, has a disease spreading, which kills 1 / 4th of each of the pine trees yearly. Therefore, the pine trees remaining should be 3 / 4.
Respectively 3 / 4 should be the growth factor, starting with 800 pine trees - the start value. This can be represented as such,
- where a = start value, b = growth factor, t = time ( <em>variable quantity</em> )
____
Thus, the function can model this problem. The forest after t years should have P( t ) number of pine trees remaining.
