The amount of a sample remaining after t days is given by the equation p(t)=a(1/2)^t/h where a is the initial amount of the sample and h is half-life, in days, of the substance.

2.5 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the givens into the equation. A is the initial amount, 16 mg. H is the halflife, 8 days. T is the time in days that has passed, 16 days. So we get P(t)= 10(1/2)^(16/2). This ends up being 10(1/2)^2. 1/2^2 is 1/4. 10(1/4)=2.5 mg

the answer is d

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following
