Answer:
the correct anser is 0.0000563
Step-by-step explanation:
you move the decimal point to the left 5 spaces because it is negative
The answer to this problem would be about 4 hours
Answer:
P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can me modelled with an exponencial formula:
P = Po * (1+r)^t
Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the amount of time.
In this problem, we have that the inicial population/value is 27000, the rate is -8/9 (negative because the population decays), and the time t is in months, so as the rate is for every 4 months, we use the value (t/4) in the exponencial.
So, our function will be:
P(t) = 27000 * (1-8/9)^(t/4)
P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)
65-9=56
56 divided by 8 is 7
So they will need 7 tents
