In this experiment, you will determine which of four variables affect the breakdown of rock samples. to do that, you will change one variable at a time and then measure the change in mass of the rock sample. in the space below, write a scientific question you will answer by doing this experiment.

the sample answer they give you is  What factors influence the rate of weathering? hope this helps.

9.9 years

a = p(1 + rt) . . account balance after time t at rate r starting with principal p

3000 = 2500(1 + 0.0202t) . . filling in the given numbers

1.2 = 1 + 0.0202t . . divide by 2500

0.2 = 0.0202t . . . subtract 1

0.2/0.0202 = t ≈ 9.901

it will take about 9.9 years for the account balance to reach $3000.
