Could someone me with this problem? i have been struggling with math and i only have one more attempt on this .

The starting rectangle (on the left) is larger than the ending rectangle (on the right). This means the scale factor is some value between 0 and 1, not including 0 or 1 itself.

To find the scale factor, we divide corresponding sides. We divide the vertical side 1.5 of the figure on the right over its corresponding pair on the left.

So,

scale factor = (new)/(old) = 1.5/6 = 0.25

Since 0.25 = 1/4, this means that the rectangle on the right is 1/4th as small compared to the one on the right.

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
