A container has peppermint gum and spearmint gum. There are 32 pieces of peppermint gum in the container and the ratio of peppermint gum to spearmint gum is 8 to 7. Find the number of pieces of spearmint gum in the container.

off the top of my head I think that there is 28 pieces in there

Step-by-step explanation:

well 32 divided by 8 is 4 and 7 times 4 is 28 . so there would be 28 pieces of gum in the spearmint pack .

your answer is b ^w^ hope i

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)
